50 Toughest Questions of Life invites people to have a conversation about themselves with themselves. This book is a collection of fifty questions that are strikingly fresh, tender, yet searing, and will make you reflect and inspire you to push beyond your boundaries.

Karwan Ka Shauq Hai

Deepak's third book, Karwan Ka Shauq Hai is his second collection of Hindi poetry. This is a book of self-introspection exploring the concepts of time and forgiveness. It encapsulates tender moments from ordinary life, ranging from a bedside pillow to the postal worker's letter bag, along with stories of hopeful tomorrows to protests for climate change. Above all, it is an attempt to help people fall a little more in love with themselves through observation and understanding. In addition to the poems, this new collection is sprinkled with ghazals and shers, offering a variety of poetic styles and perspectives for all kinds of readers.
