I was inspired by a story that was narrated to me by a friend, years ago. He was a cricket tourist to Pakistan in 2004. I was humbled by the amount of love they showered on him just because he was a guest from India. People are people everywhere, politics and political decisions draw boundaries between us.
If I am bothered by something wrong in the society, I want to fix it. So, I just sit and write till I have an answer that will fix the problem, and also, I like the solution to be elegant and beautiful. All art is meant to make life beautiful. If mine makes it beautiful for even one person, that's more than what I need.
