“Great stories just like great talent can come from anywhere - We're moving from a world of scarcity to a world of abundance. In this world, great stories will shape entire cultures and generations. The value and impact of these stories will grow by orders of magnitude.

Pratilipi exists to find these stories first—and remove everything standing between them and the people they're meant for.”

From a conversation at Antler India

Ranjeet Pratap Singh,
Founder & CEO

How stories travel?

A story gets published on Pratilipi Literature. It gets read. Shared. Loved. Quietly, it becomes a favourite.

The comics team adapts it. Turns it into digital panels & physical copies. It becomes a bestseller all over again.

The story then becomes an animation. It crosses 40 million views. Same story, new life.

Now it's in production as a web series. From someone's draft to someone's screen.

One story. Different formats. Still travelling. This is what the ecosystem does.

Stories behind the stories

Behind every story on Pratilipi is someone who took a chance.

Many for the first time. Most without knowing what would happen next.

I read the message three times.




I thought it was a mistake.




A humorous story I wrote in Marathi, just for fun , had been selected for Class 7 textbooks -CBSE & ICSE.


Somewhere in India, a child will underline a sentence that came out of my writing.


I still can’t believe it.

— Sanjay

My husband works as a carpenter.




Three years ago, I didn’t have even a few rupees that were truly mine. I used to think twice before buying something small for myself.




Last year, we built our house. I contributed a major part of the savings. I signed the cheque myself.


Today, I earn more from writing than I ever imagined.




Every rupee came from my stories on Pratilipi.

— Keerthana

In 2023, I lost my mother.


For months, I couldn’t focus on anything. My doctor told me I needed something to hold my mind steady, something that wouldn’t let me sink deeper into grief.




That’s when I started reading on Pratilipi. Then I began writing. At first, it was just to fill the silence in my room.




Within three months, I felt lighter. I had readers. I had routine. I had something to wake up for.

— Padmana

Last year I lost my husband. Around the same time, my son fell seriously ill.Life suddenly became very heavy.

I started writing on Pratilipi during this time. At first it was just to keep my mind occupied.

I never expected that my stories would start earning. Last month, the income from my writing helped me cover part of my son’s medical expenses.

Sometimes I feel that writing on Pratilipi didn’t just give me readers. It gave me strength

— Preeti

I’m a salesperson. Targets. Incentives. Monthly pressure.

I don’t look like a writer.

I started writing on Pratilipi on my phone between client visits. At first it was just time-pass. Then I started earning, and then slowly the earnings cleared my debt.

Now, some months, my stories make more than my salary.

On sales calls, apart from my usual products, I now also carry a notebook with me.

— Hakeef

Nobody knew I was writing.

Not my husband. Not my family.

I would finish my chores, wait for everyone to sleep, and write quietly on my phone. I didn't tell anyone for months.

Then the earnings started coming. I paid my Masters fees in Psychology. Myself.

When I finally told them, I didn't argue. I just showed them the degree.
