Smriti Notani has a penchant for wit, a bit of a foul mouth, and some astute observational skills - at the core of what she does lies an inherent need to see Indian women, especially future generations, lead a more evolved and fair existence.

In this episode we discussed her process, character development, themes and focus on societal issues. Her experience with Rupa publications, thoughts on literary agents and self-publishing.
