Almost Ours is about the feeling of belonging to a time you never quite lived in.
It’s about old stories, ancient songs playing in the background, clothes and customs passed down until they quietly become part of you.
This issue brings together all generations and all forms of art into the same space: those who remember, and those who inherit to explore what it means to be a dual-heritage, South Asian, eager to return to a time that we never got to experience.
Nostalgia is something that we all carry in our hearts and minds, something we look to for happiness and comfort.
In this issue, we explore what happens when what was becomes almost ours.

Between Both is the debut issue of Samajh My Gal, a creative magazine dedicated to South Asian diaspora creatives navigating life between cultures.
This introductory edition brings together a curated mix of writing, visual art, and experimental concepts that reflect the layered realities of dual heritage, where identity is not fixed, but constantly negotiated.
Between Both offers a platform for work that resists simplification. It highlights the richness of mother tongues, cultural memory, and lived experience that are often diluted or overlooked. The issue explores themes of belonging, inheritance, language, and contradiction, capturing what it means to exist in the space between ‘both.’

This launch edition is more than a publication. It marks the beginning of a wider creative community, built through open calls, workshops, and ongoing collaboration. Each contribution has been intentionally selected to reflect honesty, tension, and cultural specificity without compromise.
Printed as a physical magazine and supported by a growing digital presence, Between Both sets the foundation for a long-term platform centred on South Asian storytelling that is direct, unfiltered and self-defined.
