Though I have always maintained that I write for myself, it would not have been possible to complete 5 years if it was not for the support and encouragement that I got from everyone who reads, visits, has read or visited Chai ki Dukaan!

Chai ki dukaan has been my favorite hang-out for a long time and is integral part of my life. I begin my day here..umm..I (literally)have my bed-tea at Chai ki dukaan :P
And I second Joy. Many of the posts here are 'really' like fav books. I keep going back to read them...again and again :)
Also, I met some really nice people through chai ki dukaan. In fact, 2-3 have become dear friends Thanks to you and your very special chai ki dukaan :)
And here is a special song for you and your Chai ki Dukaan :))
