When we write and read a poem, we always feel like we are playing with a fantasy with a brush. And that's natural. That is the strength of poetry. 'Kalindi's Dohat' is one such invention. It's about playing with dreams, talking about emotions, embracing yourself and talking to the other person without any hesitation. There is asking, there is giving, and there is telling. There is also rudeness, blaming, mud blowing and worship. All in all, it is a dream come true and immersed in a pool of love, separation and expectation.
