I am a literary critic and academic. I have written extensively on literature, media, culture and history. My recently published work Meera Vs Meera is English translation of my well-received Hindi book Pachrang Chola Paher Sakhi ri. The work is focused on the medieval Bhakti Poetess Meera Bai’s life and society. I have also written a book on a great scholar of Oriental Studies, Muni Jinvijay which has been published by Sahitya Akademi in its ‘Makers of Indian Literature’ series.
