  • In The Poetry of Vihang A. Naik: New Literary Dimensions, edited by Goutam Karmakar, Naik reaches into the past and future. These are poems of friendship, of love’s stranglehold, of the streets and buildings where history is played out. Elegiac and bittersweet, the poetry features Naik at his best. This collection is valuable from the beginning, not only for its originality, but with the depth and fullness with which the poems communicate internal and external human states. They tell of the world of attitudes arising from inner, strong connections, highlighting emotions that usually carry dilemmas, so that we see such ethics lead to great truths and create well being ---- Form by “Preface” by Patricia Prime.

  • This Day That Year as a title came from a TV program of the 90s called “This Week That Year”, that I used to watch on TV. I could relate to it very well as I remembered the release dates of most of the movies of the late 60s and early 70s and when the host spoke about it, I went down my memory lane and loved the experience. Once I became part of Facebook in 2009, I found a great forum to share my experiences of movie releases in Bombay then and now Mumbai. I found a lot of like-minded people who could relate to my post and shared their experiences and thoughts as comments. Quite a few of them encouraged me to share it with a larger audience and hence suggested publishing it. I never thought of doing it but when people kept telling me regularly to do it, I decided to give it a try, and here comes my experiences and thoughts of the movies released in the late 60s and early 70s. Hope you like what you read, though many of the statements would look repetitive. But do accept the experiences of a teenager who turns into a man in 1973.
  • Do you ever feel like painting your world with thoughts tickling around? Do you ever feel that life is a maze or puzzle to be solved? We frequently quote certain aspects of life to solve those puzzles. Based on answers and their validations, we quote and unquote them, and the cycle continues until we find our solutions. And we resonate this cycle this way - "Let us tickle our grey cells. Let pen be our armor in the world’s drought Let us paint shades of white and black. While tickling the hues of thoughts, Let black write its destiny While white musing on her crafts." "Tickle Your Grey Cells" is an attempt to experiment and imbibe all those emotions, observations, questions, and puzzles in the form of quotes, haikus, and short verses. All these I attempted while exploring my zest for short and crisp writing. Pour in your love and support.
  • The story revolves around two patients who meet in hospital room 50. They are living with different outlooks and vastly diverse life circumstances. One is a 19-year old medical student with an untreatable fatal disease. As she races towards her end, every breath to her seems like a milestone labelled with victory. The other is a patient with multiple organ failure due to a history of drug abuse. He cannot wait for his last breath to arrive. These two polar opposites in the hospital room are fighting death, as their doctors bend rules of medicine and at some points, even their ethics to keep them breathing. With a team of interns and their personal demons from the past to haunt them, the story depicts various shades of two lives crossing paths in a single room.
