heartfelt
Didi, from fighting over the remote to sharing secrets at midnight, you’ve been my first best friend and my favourite headache. Festivals are sweeter because I get to come back to the person who knows every version of me and loves me anyway. May Dussehra bring you brave beginnings, peaceful days and all the happiness you’ve been postponing for everyone else. Happy Vijayadashami. I’m so lucky you’re my sister.
heartfelt
To my brother: may this Dussehra bring you the courage to chase what you want and the wisdom to leave behind what weighs you down. Also, may you finally return the hoodie you borrowed three years ago. Love you, Bhaiya. Have a brilliant Vijayadashami.
romantic
You make ordinary things feel festive—the late-night chai, the badly wrapped gifts, and the little messages that say, “Reached?” when I’m travelling. This Dussehra, I’m grateful not just for your love but for the calm and laughter you bring into my life. May every new beginning find us together, and may we keep choosing each other through every season. Happy Dussehra, my favourite person.
