Often artists find themselves looking for experiences, mentors, friends and collaborators. Prithvee is a program that ensures that people who are rooted meet and have a fruitful time. The security and the protection will be assured.

We cannot have a motherly figure in our life 24/7. Thus, my friends and i are planning to create a space for talking about topics that are tough, cause discomfort and the general deceit we face personally and otherwise. Let us make 'offense' our daily bread and let's agree to disagree.

basically: light theeskoni, enjoy cheyanndi!

Note: Applications with name, aadhar card and writing genre must be emailed to niveenarsapur at gmail dot com

Fee will be waivered for first 25 applications and a free space to write like the writer hidden within you will be the agenda.

**
Who should email?
Middle Class and Lower Class People with Family and a Moral Compass as their Center.

Why this program?
We have pontential for a Nobel; why not?
thokka laga - same old crap - kyun? enduku?

What's in it for me?
You get a space to breathe and food per day. A bit of struggle like a writing soldier and we are sorted.
Money and all will come. But this is for building writers who love their nation.

This is part of Nivasini and Abhigyan Art House

Nivasini is a registered publishing house and we were publishing books for poets. We intend to make it a force to enhance pedestrian art and education.This is for the ones roaming in buses in sultry summers and shivering without a blanket on a harsh winter. 
Capitalists are not allowed.

The presence of his absence

  Bala and me Bala's presence at YK Antiques has been so impactful that when he left Hyderabad, it left a gaping hole. One that we cannot fill and thinking we can fill it is only foolish. His passion and love for YK Antiques is unparalled.  Satya, Bala and sir with Dobara team For the unitiated, YK Antiques is a home museum in Alwal, Hyderabad, and is run by YK Murthy and is supported by the love of volunteers -- Satya, Vinay, Preeti, Laalithya, among others.  And today, there was a School Tour to the museum. And personally, the presence of Bala's absence was felt. Before Bala moved to Goa, he spent most of his time at YK Antiques and he and YK Sir set the home museum with utmost care. Whenever there was a school tour, Bala would spontaneously conjure some fascinating activity.  And this time, it was we who had to do it. I knew it would be hard to fill in the shoes of Bala. And the next thing, I thought was to involve my mother, who is creative and spontaneous. The t...

Ammamma

Ammamma. The word itself evokes memories for us. Her passing is the passing of a part of our childhood which we (my cousins and I) cherish. This is a piece for her. Ammamma is a telugu word to address mom's mom.  Ammamma lived in Chikkadpally, an area in the older part of Hyderabad, in one of those houses with multiple door entries, many windows in every room, and washroom that’s outside the house. Like Ammamma, the house was open, warm and welcoming. Anyone (whom we know ofcourse) could come inside and stay there as long as they wanted to. This was the 90s and perhaps due to the times we lived in, people were trusting of each other, children grew up in multiple households (grandparents’, aunts’, uncles’..). In our household, while there was emphasis on studies, there was emphasis on having fun too – be it watching movies, playing in the gully, studying and going to tuition together, or watching the Sunday Jungle Book together. Ammamma played a pivotal role in taking us to movi...

At a time when phones were not common and digital video calling was not even thought of, my parents had to communicate with hearing people, and I started interpreting for them as I grew up. But for a ...
