New Delhi [India], February 3: What happens when psyche, consciousness, and art come together? When psyche, consciousness, and art converge, it marks a state of profound self-awareness, where the individual achieves a unified understanding of their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. This convergence often leads to a sense of wholeness, clarity, and deep insight into one’s being. Keerthi Durugadda embodies this synergy through creations of abstractions that effortlessly merge beauty with practicality. Her artistic temperament is both rich and multifaceted, inviting critical analysis that explores the depth of her visual language and the nuanced themes she engages with.
The process of painting is rooted in the subconscious mind of the artist, where deeply ingrained images from the psyche begin to take form. Through the deliberate use of strokes, textures, design, and tone, these raw elements coalesce into a powerful abstraction. The subject matter of her work is often a fusion of nostalgia and imagination, drawn from a tapestry of personal experiences, emotions, moods, fantasies, and the profound influence of the environment and upbringing.”
Painting, for her, has been both a form of expression and a means of catharsis. “Relationships have manifested in me a deep spiritual sense,” she says, and it is these connections that inform much of her work. She explores themes of human existence, emotions, and interconnectedness, urging viewers to reflect on their own relationship with the natural world. She delves into the cyclical patterns of thought and the conflicts between personal obsessions and societal behavior.
The artist’s creative journey began four years ago when she started experimenting with small watercolor paintings, focusing on nudes and simple forms of expression. Over time, this evolved into abstraction, as she began exploring herself through different mediums. At a particularly challenging point in her life, when therapy and medication couldn’t provide relief, painting became her form of healing. It was through her art that she found an outlet for her emotions, using the process as a tool to shift her perception of life and to foster healing. Painting became a dialogue between herself and the society around her.
One of the striking aspects of Keerthi’s work is her masterful manipulation of space and theme, creating compositions that are both complete and dynamic. Each painting embodies a complexity of visualization and spontaneity, offering a portal to a realm where imagination reigns. Through this, she challenges viewers to confront the mysteries of existence with a fresh perspective. Her exploration of the digital medium demonstrates her skillful approach to organizing elements that create a vibrant interplay of bold colors, strokes, lines, and abstract forms, imbuing her work with movement and a sense of mystery.

Pune (Maharashtra) [India], January 29:Besides, Indian society has always treated marriage as an inviolable institution. We pride ourselves on our low divorce rates, possibly the lowest in the world—just 1. 1 per cent annually. And yet, UN reports indicate that divorce rates in India have multiplied twofold since the advent of the millennium. Two contradictory realities that co-exist. What’s more, if our low divorce rates are a fact, so too are India’s high number of dowry and domestic violence cases. Additionally, the report also points to the phenomenon of a grey divorce, that is divorces among people after decades of marriage.
Why is this happening? The reasons range from irreconcilable differences to changing societal norms, refusal of empowered women to stick on with abusive relationships as they traditionally did, and sometimes even the misuse of legal mechanisms such as Section 498A of the IPC by different parties.
As relationships head south, including marriages of several decades, they show up for the final reckoning in the Family Court— an institution that bears mute testimony to an unparalleled range of cases. From the heartrending to the cruel and bizarre, these stories spotlight the hidden crevices and contradictions of a society in rapid transition.
Through candid, first-person narratives combined with legal insight, When Love is Lost: Cases from the Family Courts of a Changing India by journalist-writer Kalyani Sardesai sheds light on the emotional and psychological toll of separation and divorce, as experienced by men, women, and lawyers in the eye of the storm.
Additionally, counselors, lawyers, and mediators weigh in with valuable inputs on conflict resolution within marriage. “Thus, the book offers an unflinching view of today’s domestic battles and the socio-legal landscape that shapes them. It not only examines different cases of divorce ranging from adultery and bigamy to domestic violence, abandonment, fraud, but also provides information on the legal aspects of splitting marriages, and knowledge of an estranged spouse’s rights as enshrined in the law,” says Sardesai.
Highlights:
One-of-its kind research book cum relationship guide on modern-day marital relationships with the law as a cornerstone. Authored by journalist-writer Kalyani Sardesai
First person narrations recounting emotional cost of divorce + legal insights
A documentation of the changing face of Indian marriages post 2000.
UN reports show number of divorces have gone up by two-fold since advent of millennium
Sardesai’s interest in the Family Courts has its genesis in her stint as a journalist covering the Family Court for various national dailies. “As a reporter and writer, one is always interested in stories that reflect changing trends and shifts in priorities. The institution of marriage is a leading example of the same,” she says. “No longer is it a case of ‘till death do us apart’. Women are increasingly vocal about their rights, refusing to put with abuse as they traditionally did. Add to that the stresses of modern day living and the increased emphasis on individuality as opposed to prioritising the family unit above all. On the other hand, there are those who abuse the provisions meant to protect them. When children are involved, battle lines are drawn even more tightly,” she says.
A well-rounded, comprehensive take covering different communities and socio-economic strata of society, each narration is different, but what runs like a common thread through them all, is the emotional cost of the courtroom battle and subsequent outcome.
Section I has 24 first person accounts of the narrators along with the relevant legal information. The cases in the book cut across various communities and socio-economic strata and include instances of LGBTQ as well as live-in relationships.
Meanwhile, Section II of the book has mediators, lawyers, counsellors, married and estranged couples sharing valuable perspectives on the battles worth fighting—for not every divorce is a bad thing, and some issues indeed deserving of a firm stand.
“When Love is Lost is thus a unique relationship guide for navigating marital relationships with the law as a cornerstone,” rounds off Sardesai.
When Love is Lost: Cases from the Family Courts of a changing India is available on Amazon at Rs 275.

New Delhi [India], January 28: In an exclusive interview, poet and HR professional Priya Tikhe shares her unique perspective on the power of poetry as a medium for self-expression and universal connection. For Priya, poetry is not just a form of writing, but a way to release internal pain and celebrate self-love, which she then transmits to others through her words. “The process of self-awareness and seeking the unknown helped me connect with myself,” she says. “The closer I got to my soul, the closer I felt to the supreme vibration of wisdom, love, and giving.”
Priya’s poetry is inspired by the love she has received from others, especially during a time when she lived separately from her family for three years. During this period of loneliness, she found solace in writing poems that reflect her deep feelings of love for self, others, and the divine. The themes of her poetry center around love in all its forms—be it motherly, romantic, spiritual, or platonic.
When it comes to the tone and structure of her work, Priya keeps her language simple, aiming to reach a wide audience. “My structure started with four lines of short poetry and evolved into 6-10 lines of grouping and rhyming thoughts,” she shares. “The simplicity of language helps my poems resonate with a broader audience.”
Priya’s poems encourage readers to connect on a personal level, allowing them to interpret the emotions conveyed in different ways. “My poetry reflects universal experiences that anyone can relate to—whether it’s the role of a mother, lover, or friend,” she says.
Her writing is sensuous yet profound, capturing the ups and downs of life and love. By blending Hindi and Urdu, Priya experiments with language to create a unique sound that adds depth and emotion to her poetry.
Her work is often a reflection of personal experiences, as well as the moments and observations shared with her family and friends. However, Priya emphasizes that her poetry is less about commenting on the outside world and more about an inward journey. “It’s about looking within and exploring the internal world,” she explains. “It’s a reflection of how external experiences shape our inner self.”
As for her creative process, Priya reveals that her inspiration comes spontaneously. “Whenever a thought or emotion flows, words form in my mind, and I rush to write them down,” she says. “It takes about an hour to shape every feeling into words that convey exactly what I’m sensing in the moment.”
