Between India and London, Sauvik and Avi find love in the glow of screens and the silence of distance. What begins as connection becomes devotion — fragile, fearless, and quietly defiant. As secrets blur the line between love and loss, love becomes both his shelter and his undoing.
Of a Closet and What It Hid is a tender, haunting portrait of love stretched across continents — where distance deepens desire, and silence tells its own story.
“Raw, lyrical, and deeply moving — Of a Closet and What It Hid captures the poetry of queer love and the quiet power of truth.”
— Faraz Arif Ansari, Filmmaker

A published poet, he was recently honored with the 21st Century Emily Dickinson Award for his evocative poetry. His works have appeared in national and international anthologies and literary magazines, earning recognition for their introspective and lyrical storytelling.
Hailing from Bongaigaon, Assam, and Bengali by heritage, Sauvik now calls Bangalore home. He is one of the editors of ANTARGATA: An Anthology of Poems by the Bangalore Poetry Circle, and a firm believer in the transformative power of storytelling.
A former queer activist and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion champion, Sauvik writes about identity, mental health, and queer love, blending poetic sensitivity with narrative precision. Of a Closet & What It Hid, his debut novel, is a tender, deeply human exploration of love, longing, and the courage to embrace one’s true self.
