Spoke to Saaz Aggarwal about my new HarperCollins-published book for Hindustan Times! The parallels between the partition-independence-integration stories of Sindhis & Hyderabadis are aplenty! Saaz's "Sindh: Stories of a Vanished Homeland" is a must read! hindustantimes.com/books/daneesh-…

Bought this HarperCollins-published gem a few months ago after someone highly recommended it. Hoping to read “House of Awadh” soon as I’ve heard nothing but good things! Via Scroll.in Ipshita Mitra: amp.scroll.in/article/108316…

Had a blast speaking to The Hindu-Hyderabad Correspondent Syed Mohammed. We covered a lot of ground about my first book during our chat. “The Hyderabadis: From 1947 to the Present-Day” is available at various outlets from HarperCollins ! youtu.be/QZJy7kXVf14?si…

Had a great chat with Sibghat صبغت of the The Deccan Archive about my book “The Hyderabadis: From 1947 to the Present-Day” at Kohé. Here’s to hoping that the Deccan (along with its people) also takes the centre stage during discourse about independence/partition. HarperCollins

“There is much to relish in Majid’s research process, revealed through little anecdotes about discovering fascinating primary & secondary sources via fellow Hyderabad enthusiasts.” A great review from Scroll.in for “The Hyderabadis.” HarperCollins scroll.in/article/108322…
