  • THE DINING TABLE - By Dhruv Nath

    THE DINING TABLE - By Dhruv Nath
    Jun 24 2023
    An engaging and tongue in cheek account of an anecdote of when a family from Delhi shifts base to a sleepy little hill town. The observations, the differences and ultimately the rationalised similarities make the story quite engrossing. The author being a proud pahadia manages to give us the insider view which I, a proud pahadan myself, find quite real. Listen on to sample an authentic Pahadi short story dear readers.
