I try so hard to please Ayesha, to make jokes. To win her back I even bought a computer, but . . ., from the series "Myself Mona Ahmed"

In December 1998 the deppression started and has refused to leave me ever since, from the series "Myself Mona Ahmed"

My beautiful monkey Shabnam (my eunuch brother’s name) that was killed by the Muslims. They said a monkey is a Hindu god and therefore cannot live in a Muslim graveyard. So they poisoned him, from the series "Myself Mona Ahmed"

My rabbit Moti (Pearl) that the cats ate up a few days later, from the series "Myself Mona Ahmed"

When I went to meet Ayesha, Chaman had me tortured by the police. In my pain I ran to Dayanita’s house to make a record of my pain, from the series "Myself Mona Ahmed"

I look like a sad Muslim woman after fighting with my guru Chaman. We went on a visit to the graveyard to show Ayesha the ducks, from the series "Myself Mona Ahmed"

When I went to give blessings, I loved to talk to the women and to hear their joys and sorrows, , from the series "Myself Mona Ahmed"

To bless the newborn child, I am dancing in front of the house, from the series "Myself Mona Ahmed"
