Just like Chai offers solace from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, Chayari provides some respite from the clutter of digital content and allows us to appreciate the season and its beloved brew.

Chai and monsoons have been romanticised for ages. But the beauty of drinking chai when it’s raining isn’t in the grand gestures or larger than life declarations. It’s in the ordinary things, made extraordinary by that one warm sip. Chayari explores the simple moments of monsoon, from making chai to gazing endlessly out of the window. It’s a story of chai and its beloved rain which makes the mundane, magical. And what better way to witness beauty than through poetry! Poetry, that’s expressed in the language of a nation which is proud of its Chai.
