Mohan, you know, when I paint these shadow puppets, the old ones always feel heavier—the hide has breathed through enough monsoons to know which way the wind will tear. That’s this Delhi team now, aso. After eight winters of the generator cutting out, they didn’t just win; they held the line when the voltage dropped.

Your radio metaphor is perfect—I've been tuning GK books for years, sometimes getting only static
