About Writing & Thought Leadership
Why I Write
I'm not here for academic showboating. My writing is my way of fighting for Bharat's survival as a living civilization. It's personal - I want to make sure we don't end up with a future that our kids curse us for. Decolonising our minds is the starting point, and I don't sugarcoat what that journey really asks of us.
The Bharat Series
My books are my main tool in this battle.
- India that is Bharat digs into how colonial thinking shaped our Constitution and identity, showing how ideas like 'secularism' were not neutral imports but tools that worked against our own traditions.
 - India, Bharat and Pakistan looks past the standard Two-Nation theory, tracing how deeper religious divides were created and used through history, from Bengal's partition to the Khilafat movement.
 - These counter-narrative books have sparked real conversation, selling over 2.25 lakh copies. The third book is coming soon.
 
Beyond Books: Columns & Conversations
In my #TheSidebar column for The Indian Express, I keep applying the decolonial lens to current issues:
- How colonial powers invented 'caste' and 'tribe'
 - What lies behind Dravidianism
 - The road ahead for Bharat
 
Editions & Language
Dhyaan se suno (Listen carefully):
- Official English versions are only hardcover.
 - Hindi and Telugu paperback translations are legit.
 - If you find an English paperback, chances are it's fake.
 
My Line in the Sand
There are things I won't compromise on:
- Bharat is a civilization, not just a country
 - Our Constitution needs a civilisational relook
 - 'Secularism' in India deserves serious questioning
 - Dharma isn't just another religion - let's drop the lazy slogans
 
The job isn't done till our civilisational memory is reclaimed. Veera Vel Vetri Vel!

My Story
Started out as a mechanical engineer, then took a sharp turn—landed in law at IIT Kharagpur. Not just for a job, but to use law as a tool for something bigger: decolonising the Indian mind. My work’s all about Bharat—be it in the Supreme Court or in my books. I’m rooted in temple visits, prasadam, Abhangwari concerts, and time with my Shih Tzus. By the Devatas’ grace, I keep going. It’s all one journey.
My Work
Legal Counsel, Author, Speaker - I argue cases in the Supreme Court, write books like 'India that is Bharat', and speak on Dharma and our Constitution.
Civilizational Litigation - I handle civil commercial and constitutional cases, always placing them in Bharat’s bigger context with a civilizational litigation strategy.
Books for Everyone - My 'Bharat' trilogy breaks down how colonial thinking shaped us. Even if you don’t read much, it’s for you.
Straight Talk in Public - I speak at global forums—no sugarcoating—about Dharma, Hindutva, and tough truths facing our civilization.
