A Grand Launch of “Antim Darshan Ka darshan shastra ”

At the World Book Fair, at the stall of Bhavna Prakashan, the satirical collection “Antim Darshan Ka darshan shastra ” by author Dr. Mukesh Aseemit was formally launched in an atmosphere of literary dignity and warm camaraderie. The ambience of the event felt as if satire itself was seated on the stage, twirling its moustache with confidence—there was a lively exchange of words, shared smiles, and an ongoing dialogue with readers at every moment.

The occasion was graced by the presence of eminent senior litterateurs, satirists, and literary contributors who lent the event a special distinction. Among those present were senior writer and editor Balram Agrawal; senior satirist and economist Alok Puranik; renowned satirist Archana Chaturvedi, equally respected in both Braj and Hindi; Lalitya Lalit from NBT; editor and satirist Ramkishor Upadhyay of Attahas; the outspoken student of satire Sunil Rahi; Sunil Chaturvedi, a close associate of Archana Chaturvedi; theatre artist and acclaimed reader Manu Kaushal of Walk in Delhi fame; well-known reader and critic Utkarsh Garg; and Neeraj Mittal, Director of Bhavna Prakashan. Along with them, several distinguished writers, literary figures, and readers made the event truly memorable.

In their addresses, the speakers praised the author’s satirical vision, observing that professional medical training—where every nerve and bone of the human body is subjected to scientific scrutiny—equips a satirist with a unique tool to understand the anatomy of society. Recognizing the contradictions hidden beneath seemingly attractive social systems and articulating them with precision is a defining feature of Dr. Mukesh Aseemit’s writing. His understanding of satire not as an occasional “event,” but as a 24×7 worldview, is reflected consistently throughout his work.

The program also featured a reading from the book’s self-written preface. The speakers unanimously agreed that for readers seeking a fresh taste—and those weary of repeatedly reading the same old satire—this collection offers something new, engaging, and impactful. Satire crafted with humor reaches the reader’s heart, stays in memory, and provokes thought—this is the book’s greatest strength.

In his concluding remarks, Dr. Mukesh Aseemit expressed heartfelt gratitude to all senior mentors, speakers, critics, readers, and friends present. He said that this journey of treating the “bones” of society with the pen will continue steadily, strengthened by the affection and trust of readers.

The event concluded with meaningful literary conversations, warmth, and the sweetness of Gangapur’s famous Kheermohan. Glimpses from the launch were shared to preserve memories—ensuring that these moments, too, play their part in time.
