Maatraa began with Alakta and her friend Lata Rao. And a strong friendship with a common goal to do something for the youth and women, turned the dream into a reality with Maatraa.
While working with my children during their formative school years, I realised that they mastered the art of learning. They took their struggles in their stride, and put in their very best.
My kids grew up feeling the satisfaction of diligent input while not worrying about the outcome on paper. The methodology turned out to be a success. To be able to put this in the Maatraa methodology was immensely gratifying.
At Maatraa, we believe that language is a muscle. The more one practices and uses it, the stronger it will get. Maatraa has been specially designed for the bilingual Indian audience with content specially created by Indian experts.
The course makes it very easy to recognise common mistakes and correct them. Short and focussed videos in the learning process at Maatraa have been greatly appreciated by students, teachers and HR departments. The opportunity for rigorous practice of the learning on the platform itself, ensures better and improved language skills.
Reader, writer and a strong feminist, I survive on coffee and cuddles from dogs! Pop culture, especially Bollywood, runs in my veins while I crack incredibly lame jokes and puns! read more...

No matter where one’s fandom lies, if one saw the clip of you visiting your son in jail, the sheer dignity would have one converted to 'being yours'!
Dear @iamsrk,
I have done enough stuff in my journey making my son and husband often exclaim vexedly, ‘Aap Zara Sa Tham Jao Ji!’
But never in my dreams did I imagine that I would be writing an open crush-puff-piece at this stage of my life!
If the Chitrahaar Gods were especially propitious, they would showcase the song 'Papa Kahte Hain' and she would croon along to the song and wonder with you... where did her future lie?
Dear Aamir,
The magazines called you the ‘Chocolate Boy’ and a little girl in a small town, who loved chocolates, rare as they were in the eighties, fell in love without even realising it. Not yet introduced to the charm of the brooding hero, she found your delectable rasogulla looks enticing enough, at the tender age of ten, to fall head over heels. You see, she had yet to be indoctrinated into the Tall, Dark, Handsome myth. Of course, if she had been a little bit older, she might have thought it was better to take greater note of your lipstick shade than your chocolate boy looks, for looks as they say, are here today and gone tomorrow.
She would wait impatiently for Wednesday and Friday evenings, counting the days in her heart. Come evening, she would be so excited, the spring in her steps would be hard to miss. She would be scared everyone would know the secret in her heart but still she was the first one to plop in front of the television at 8 o’clock promptly. It was the time for Chitrahaar and her only opportunity to gaze at your beautiful unblemished countenance without drawing attention to herself. You see, she carried her love for you like a firefly in her heart, a glow for difficult times.
