Biography from the 2025 festival collection.

Ankush Kumar is a native of the small village of Paratapur in Uttar Pradesh’s Bulandshahr district. He is the founder and editor of Hindinama, an organization actively devoted to promoting and celebrating Hindi literature. An engineer by profession but a poet at heart, Ankush’s deep-rooted love for Hindi inspired him to build a career in the literary sphere soon after completing his engineering studies. His creative journey has led him to collaborate with several leading publishing houses, including Rajpal & Sons, Hind Yugm, and Vani Prakashan, where he worked as a social media editor and literary promoter. Through Hindinama, Ankush Kumar has established himself as a vibrant presence in India’s literary and cultural landscape. He has represented his work and ideas at prominent forums such as the Rajasthan International Film Festival, IIT Kanpur, IIT Delhi, Sahitya Aaj Tak. Expanding his creative horizons, he is also associated with K, Kh, G Productions, producing songs, short films, and documentaries that reflect his artistic sensibility. At present, Ankush is part of the editorial and marketing team at Westland Books, continuing his mission to enrich and expand the reach of Hindi literature in contemporary times.

बुलंदशहर जनपद के परतापुर ग्राम से उठे अंकुश कुमार युग के उन विरलों में हैं जिन्होंने तकनीक के यंत्रलोक में भी शब्द की आत्मा को जीवित रखा है। विद्याभ्यास से अभियंता, पर अंतःकरण से कवि, अंकुश ने हिन्दी को अपने कर्म का केन्द्र बनाया। ‘हिन्दीनामा’ के संस्थापक-संपादक के रूप में वे न केवल साहित्य के प्रचारक हैं, बल्कि नयी पीढ़ी को भाषा के भाव-संसार से जोड़ने वाले सेतु भी हैं। राजपाल एण्ड सन्स, हिन्द युग्म और वाणी प्रकाशन जैसे प्रतिष्ठानों से जुड़कर उन्होंने आधुनिक माध्यमों में हिन्दी की प्रतिष्ठा बढ़ाई। राजस्थान इंटरनेशनल फ़िल्म फ़ेस्टिवल, IIT कानपुर, IIT दिल्ली, साहित्य आजतक आदि में उनकी उपस्थिति इस युग के बहुआयामी सृजन की साक्षी है। आज वे ‘क, ख, ग प्रोडक्शंस’ से गीत, फ़िल्म और दस्तावेज़ों के माध्यम से रचनाशीलता के नये आयाम गढ़ रहे हैं, और वैस्टलेंड बुक्स में संपादन व विपणन के क्षेत्र में अपनी दृष्टि का प्रसार कर रहे हैं।
