Heartiest congratulations to author and historian @MahmoodKooria on winning the 2026 Philip Leverhulme Prize! 🎉
The award recognises outstanding early-career scholars whose research has earned international acclaim and holds exceptional promise for the future.
This would top my Christmas and birthday wishlists if this arrives in India. An Android version that can load Kindle ebooks, fits in your pocket AND has dark mode.

#JioFiber For a fourth day now, constant internet outages and connectivity issues. With a message bannered on the App that Fiber service is impacted and is likely to get fixed by the evening. Such inefficient service.

Discovered that all 15 seasons of #ER are now streaming on @NetflixIndia - that should satisfy my medical drama cravings till #ThePitt returns in January 2027.
Odd that I missed watching ER when it was showing on TV, same with #GreysAnatomy although I finished the latter on OTT.

Three-year-old Indian boy becomes the youngest #chess player to earn a #FIDE rating.
At that age, I was happy spinning the wheels of my toy car.
It’s unfair how Gen Alpha keeps moving the goalposts.

Deeply saddened by the passing of Tom Stoppard. His plays & philosophy have been a huge influence on me. I discovered his writings when I was a student in Kolkata. Interestingly, he got his surname when his Czech mother married Kenneth Stoppard in 1945 in Kolkata when he was 8.

Vivek Shanbhag on Hyphen: his exciting translation-only publishing venture. Magazine, books, community. PS: Hyphen is hiring.

Probably in the minority here but my favourite Lewis Capaldi song is one that never made it to the Top 50 in the UK Singles Chart. Anyone else a fan of A Cure For Minds Unwell and wondering why it wasn’t more popular?

Loved the jugalbandi in this scene. #AapJaisaKoi is a spiritual sequel to #MeenakshiSundareshwar (2021) by Vivek Soni and Justin Prabhakaran., paying homage to Kolkata this time like they did for Madurai. Madhavan, at 55, plays a plausible 40-year-old virgin with a lot of charm.
nobody told me #AapJaisaKoi was a romantic comedy about two language teachers who are also musicians? In my house that's basically porn.
Anyway yeah, utterly GORGEOUS film with some cool stuff on its mind re: the misogyny and hypocrisy around dating apps.
Loved this very much!

Shahi Kabir is back with a police thriller, and the cop-turned-director delivers again on authenticity. #Ronth follows two policemen on night patrol and the power-packed performances by Dileesh Pothan and Roshan Mathew are gripping enough to make up for a somewhat rushed ...
Bro in public vs. Bro at home!
#Ronth is now streaming exclusively on JioHotstar.
