Cogito Ergo Sum! I Think Therefore I Am


Researcher, Media Commentator, Journalist and Poet, I see the world from within and without. Having vast experience in research institutions as well as online and print media, my expertise include analytical feature writing,  conducting interviews with eminent personalities, conceptualizing as well as executing publication projects, composing poems and writing book and film reviews.

As a journalist I have interviewed several internationally renowned personalities like former US Secretary of State Leone Panetta, former NATO Secretary Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, former prime minister of Malaysia Mahathir Mohamed, 1st Executive Chairman of the United Nations Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission Hans Blix, Bollywood legends Dilip Kumar , Lata Mangeshkar and many more.

I received a Ph.D. Degree in English Literature on the thesis: ‘Cinematic Techniques in the Novels of Christopher Isherwood,’ from JMI University, New Delhi in 1995. This was an interdisciplinary study on the way narrative techniques employed in films revolutionized literary techniques of narration in the 20th century, with special reference to the novels of Christopher Isherwood.
