Hiranandani spoke about how her heritage and personal experiences shape her writing. She reflected on the nuances of growing up between different cultural identities, explaining how writing became a vital form of self-expression and self-discovery. Throughout her talk, she wove in engaging anecdotes that illustrated how everyday moments from her life inspire her published works.
