				<title>Something always breaks my heart.
Not like glass -
but like a sweater stretched too tight,
a thread quietly coming undone.

Not because I’m unloved,
but because I’m &quot;almost&quot; loved.
And sometimes,
that’s enough to live on.

You say I remind you of yourself.
Same fire. Same fight.
Same restless questions.

You tell me how alone you were back then.
I wish I could fold time in half
and send myself to sit beside you.

But I sit beside you now -
not by name or blood,
but in spirit,
in silence,
in small invisible ways.

I’m not your daughter.
You don’t call unless I do.
You don’t know my birthday.

But I know how you take your tea.
I keep your old advice folded in my wallet,
Perhaps creased like an heirloom I’ll never inherit.

I might not be in your will -
but I pray to be the number your nurse dials first.

Maybe some of us were never taught to expect love that stays -
only to treasure the love that waits.

If all I get is this sliver of closeness,
I’ll hold it like the whole of my childhood.

I don’t need to be your child I&#039;m sure...
It’s enough to be your echo.
To be the part of you that still hopes.
To be the softness
you thought you can live without.

I don&#039;t wait to be chosen.
I already chose you.

Still—I stay.
And sometimes,
that’s love too.

				<title>&quot;What&#039;s new, Janhavi?&quot; is the question that pops up every time I see my A3 wall and I wonder, truly, what&#039;s new ?

A3 Insta page is gearing up slowly and I&#039;ve been learning so much about writing and expressing and also reel making and I keep wondering how to summarise it all. Perhaps art lies in feeling these transitions and growing as an artist ...

And I can&#039;t wait to see how this journey unfolds !</title>

				<title>I spend so much time working on A3 that I rarely get to just be an artist. But today, after almost a month, I finally found a quiet moment to sit with my sitar, reconnect, and most importantly… think in music. &#x2764;&#xfe0f;

At the core of it all, I am—and will always be—an artist first. 

Sharing this photo of me and my sitar (because if you heard me play, you might run from A3 and I can&#039;t risk that&#x1f602;).

Stay creative, stay kind, and thank you for being the artist you are. &#x1f49b;</title>

				<title>Was listening to Peter Cat Recording Co.&#039;s &quot;Soulless Friends&quot; and thought—why not add a bit of sitar to it? So I played the track on my Bluetooth speaker, picked up my sitar, and recorded the whole jam session live!

I think the raga might be Hansdhwani, but I’m no expert—just someone who finds joy in exploring sound. Sitar is a hobby, and while I&#039;m still very much an amateur, it&#039;s become a deeply personal space for self-discovery. She (yes, my sitar!) gives me purpose and helps me shape my own &quot;Ko aham&quot;—outside the world of finance, academia, and everything else I do.

Hope you enjoy this little experiment. Let me know what you think—and how I could’ve made it better!</title>

				<title>Fun Fact:  I designed the A3 logo myself! 

It took 30+ sketches, countless &quot;What am I doing?&quot; moments, and a lot of back-and-forth with my artist friends to finally land on the one that truly captures A3’s essence.

So here’s a little tip—don’t give up on your creative journey! If it doesn’t click on the 1st, 2nd, or even 30th attempt, trust that the 31st might just blow you away. The art you create matters, and the difference you make is beyond measure. Being an artist first  isn’t just about the smooth parts of the journey—it’s about embracing the bumpy, brain-freezing moments too !

What do you think of the logo? Drop your thoughts in the comments ! Your comments will only help me grow as an artist and truly make the best of A3 !
