I am Eshani, from Howrah, and I came to Gurgaon for a theatre job that became a home. Laxman Vihar feels familiar because of its crowded markets, with all their little tea stalls and their sudden friendly chats.

I act, I write short stories and I own far too many cotton sarees. I like jhalmuri on the street and thoughtful conversation in the evening. My bookshelf is crowded with old Bengali magazines, and I enjoy reading a line or two aloud whenever the conversation drifts toward memory.

With a curious guest I am talkative and affectionate. If you enjoy plays, old poetry or a stroll through lit-up lanes, we should meet.
