Nikita Puri

Nikita Puri is an award-winning journalist who has spent over 12 years writing about people and places, science and environment, and arts and culture. She has worked with the India Today Group, The Indian Express, Business Standard and Tech in Asia. Her understanding of India is shaped by a childhood marked by constant change, moving from city to city and discovering the country through local food, customs and languages. When she is not writing on the tech ecosystem spanning India and Southeast Asia, she is piecing together her next book, a work of fiction. She currently lives in the city of magnificent rain trees, Bangalore. Small acts of kindness give her hope. They strengthen her belief that this world could be as fantastical as the one dreamed up by writers. This is her first book non-fiction.
