Ranka left a comfortable life in London because he refused to be a bystander. Now he's in jail. Our turn now. To those keeping him there: you can lock him up. You can’t make him stop caring about this country. Dekh lena. I know my friend. Release Saurav and Ranka. NOW.

I did HYROX last week. But a week before , I had no plans to do it. I thought it was a professional-athlete suffer-fest. Not for me. Then I did it, and experienced the fabulous feeling of discovering what my body is capable of. Wrote about it. Link in next tweet.

Turned 33 yday. Birthday blogging ritual continues. When someone asked me how it was going, "Santulan" popped out. If at all a single word can capture the essence of a full year, this would be it. Top of mind thoughts, few photos & loads of carefree energy. Link in next tweet.

In 2017, Rajasthan was both the best and the worst state in India for school learning. Govt NAS survey ranked it first. ASER ranked it last. How is that possible? I travelled across Jaipur to find out. Resharing as its schools return to public scrutiny. Link in next tweet.

I am so proud of my friend @AshutoshRanka who led the CJP protest. Of his courage, his conviction, and the model of citizenship he represents. When another friend asked me “What are such people made of?”, I wanted to attempt an answer. So wrote this essay. Link in next tweet.

Rs 7 egg & Rs 22 egg are nutritionally almost identical. Most of what you're paying extra for is... marketing. Egg industry has turned a simple food into a quiz. Brown /white? Orange/yellow yolk? Omega-3? @anushkantala & I dug into what actually matters. Link in next tweet.

One lab test said Eggoz eggs had a banned antibiotic. Another said they're perfectly safe. Which led us to a deep-dive inside India's egg supply chain: antibiotics, traceability, and why India is so far behind Europe New piece, with @anushkantala. Link in next tweet.

I wrote down what I want in 2026. On work, writing, relationships, how I spend my time and more. Sharing it here. (Link in next tweet.)

I spent 7 months losing 20kg the hard way. So when Ozempic made news, I dismissed it as another weight-loss scam. Then I read the actual research. What I found changed my mind about the science. But I still wouldn't recommend it to my uncle. Why? Read my latest. Link below.

This is my one annual indulgence: a sprawling, messy birthday blog from my 32nd yesterday. No neat takeaways, just what’s on my mind right now. On art, solitude, love, and what it actually means to call yourself a writer. And yes, the Annie Hall lobster scene. :) Link in next tweet.
