Why is my Blog ID titled so?

The name I’ve chosen is deliberate and caliberated towards deliberation. In Hindi (Devnagari) van is a wooded forest while ‘dita’ is a tree with medicinal sap (Oxford dictionary) found in forests.  Dheet in Hindi translates as stubborn  with a ring of affectionate indulgence to it; the ”a” is a language game and feminizes this neutral gender noun cum adjective.  Ka is complicated. Right now let us just say that you’re right when you say it’s a simple connective. :)Vroom is personal since I love motorcycles and would love to see how life, speed and literature connect.

PS.: I love to talk and study and I love to interpret… what else would you expect from  a teacher of Delhi University!!
