Beyond academics, writing has been my creative and intellectual pursuit. I have composed over 150 poems in Marathi and Hindi, covering themes such as love, friendship, social issues, women's struggles, patriotism, life’s journey, goals, and motivation. Each poem reflects emotions, experiences, and insights that connect deeply with readers. I also explore fiction, crafting love and horror stories that engage the imagination and evoke strong emotions. Writing allows me to express different perspectives, bringing stories to life in a way that resonates with diverse audiences. Additionally, I write articles on various social issues and share them on social media. My work includes topics like India and Naxalism, the reservation system and its way forward, education and national integrity, a gist of a book on Swami Vivekananda, and the life and contributions of Veer Savarkar. Through poetry, fiction, and social commentary, this space reflects my journey beyond academics, driven by a passion for expression and meaningful discourse.

I have a deep interest in societal issues, seeking solutions, and exploring different perspectives. My engagement in social work has allowed me to contribute meaningfully in various capacities. During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, I worked with the RSS for 30-45 days, assisting the Mumbai Police with migrant documentation and distributing food packets to the needy on a daily basis, supporting those most affected by the crisis. I am also actively associated with Dnyan Prabodhini, a Pune-based educational institute that works across different parts of India with the objective of National Unity and National Integrity. In Chhattisgarh, a state heavily affected by left-wing extremism with over 30% tribal population, we focus on understanding ground-level challenges and providing support. In 2022, our team visited Chhattisgarh to assess the difficulties faced by communities, particularly orphaned students who have lost their parents to Naxal violence. We provide them with education and mentorship, guiding them toward a better future. Additionally, we are working to identify cultural similarities between Maharashtra and Chhattisgarh. Strengthening these connections fosters unity and deeper understanding, contributing to long-term social and national integration.
