Words don’t have a pattern, just like life. But as we start building them, they can end up with unique designs. Sometimes, you know what you are building. At times, you don’t. And, that’s where it gets interesting. I like toying with words, they are full of surprises and intrigue. Ditto, life.

Word of the World
It is apparently, everything in our lives. The source of sustenance, the reason to make excuses and live your life for those moments that remain etched forever. Hope.. When we are born, we don’t know it yet. We don’t understand the meaning of birth or life, we don’t even know that we exist. In fact,Continue reading “Word of the World”
Unexpected Finish
Death is inevitable, an unsaid truth. But to leave like this is painful and shocking. I am not sure what was going on inside you, but this was certainly not the way to go.
Racism, please die.
The Auteur – Remembering you..
Your films were not just films, they were emotions transcending borders and cultures. A master in portraying human relationships and political drama, you were adept in bringing the best out of stars and actors to deliver the content in a way that could live and breathe for generations to come.

Rishi Kapoor – The ‘Charm’ is no more
No, please don’t take me for a blogger who only pens down Obituaries. In fact, I hate them because I hate saying goodbye, I don’t believe in goodbyes. But apparently, these are tough times and every morning, I get this bad feeling that we are going to lose people – people who are admired, peopleContinue reading “Rishi Kapoor – The ‘Charm’ is no more”
Irrfan Khan – An Actor of Substance
‘When death strikes, it’s not about the darkness. It’s about those indelible marks that are left behind’. I really believed that he will fight this out and come back to do what he does best, acting. But somewhere, it was written otherwise. It’s a tragic loss to the world of Cinema, and we have lostContinue reading “Irrfan Khan – An Actor of Substance”
Silence Imperious
I have been away but for a reason. Not negligence, not disinterest. Perhaps, it is self introspection. Back, for good. Not for someone, but for what I am.
2019: Introspection, Tears and Future
‘A picture is worth a thousand words’. And, words encapsulate life. It’s 31 Dec 2019, and my usual ritual of a customary recap of the previous year is now like a Netflix series – a recurring, never ending one, that is. 2019 will go down as one of the most enterprising ones in my life.Continue reading “2019: Introspection, Tears and Future”
Prevailing Disasters
If we meet someone for the first time and we end up asking, ‘What’s your name’, it’s a sensible question to ask. But what follows next, is a recipe for disaster and that’s exactly how our society is built. What we hear is what we percieve. Apocalypse is not a situation for the future, itContinue reading “Prevailing Disasters”
Curious Case of History
Stonehenge has remained a mystery and an enigmatic destination for years and centuries now. But it does invoke resonance and awe in the same breath. Toppled rocks over a precarious design in different sizes placed over a tepid piece of earth – such torrid piece of landmark inviting such crazy anecdotes could only have oneContinue reading “Curious Case of History”
Wild and Close
How would you react if a tiger comes and kisses your car before meeting one of many other tigers for an afternoon cuddle? I remember seeing them, and my 3 year old son’s epic reaction will always remain etched in my memory as the most memorable one. No, he wasn’t scared as he is tooContinue reading “Wild and Close”
