From Journalism to Writing: The World of Storytelling with Richa Mukherjee | The Literature Lounge

In this compelling episode, host Mohua Chinappa sits down with Richa Mukherjee — an accomplished author and storyteller who has navigated journalism, advertising, and literature.

From forging a path through diverse storytelling mediums to championing the raw, real voices of women in fiction, Richa's perspective challenges stereotypes and sparks essential dialogue.

What you’ll hear in this conversation:

• Her journey from journalism and advertising to becoming an author
• The critical reason why women's fiction is a necessary genre
• Why "Deification of women is Destruction" — a powerful argument against putting women on pedestals in stories
• A provocative take on the future: "In five years, people won't need writers"
• The isolating, yet deeply individual, truth of the writing process
• Her firm professional stance: "Don't write for free"
• About the perspective – Real Stories Over Perfection

Richa’s insight isn’t about creating flawless female icons — It’s about writing human women with complexity and truth.

It's a call to move beyond stereotypes and explore authentic narratives.

If you're a creator or consumer of stories

Here’s what Richa’s conversation reminds us:

True connection comes from authenticity, not idealisation.
