An unscrupulous virus ambushed the world, the planet came to a standstill as millions of lives were disrupted and our lives were never the same again. The Pandemic has changed the dynamics of how this world operated. Today, we callContinue reading “The Forgettable Year”

Tenet – Incredibly Predictable
Sorry, Christopher Nolan! ‘Tenet’ was a visible disappointment. With or without COVID-19, I still think that the film would have bombed. I am okay with the theme as such – a futuristic thriller that means business when it sets the ball rolling to save this world from a so called ‘Nuclear Holocaust’ with a relentlessContinue reading “Tenet – Incredibly Predictable”
Andha Naal – Classic Corner
A very early adaptation of crime and treason set in the backdrop of Second World War, Andha Naal (அந்த நாள்) was the first film noir in Tamil cinema. Even though it is heavily inspired from Kurosawa’s acclaimed ‘Rashomon‘, it was a landmark film that has since achieved a cult status. Inspiring performances from the leadContinue reading “Andha Naal – Classic Corner”
Voice of God
I grew up listening to his maverick voice in the cassettes that Appa used to play in the vintage tape recorder that used to be our constant companion in those days. He used to hum the songs along with Rafi Saab’s inimitable flair and in turn, I used to hum them, along with Appa andContinue reading “Voice of God”

Maradona – Genius and Rebel
Maradona was not just a football player, he was perhaps the most attractive and magnetic personality the game of football has ever seen. Way back, for young kids like me, he was Football himself. He was one of the very few and rare players in the history of any sport who has enthralled millions acrossContinue reading “Maradona – Genius and Rebel”
🙏 শুভ বিজয়া 🙏
The journey towards redemption, breaking barriers and to gather the spoils of civilisation has begun. The process to fight and requite evil continues.
Sunshine, Captivating
The advent of brightness is an interesting theory. Shining upon us over eternity, it’s existence is relative to our moods and repercussions. Often acknowledged, sometimes not.
Remembering you..
Your legacy lives on.. Steve – the first iPod launch, the first iPhone launch, the first iPad launch.. I don’t think I can ever forget those iconic product launches. I am a big Apple user, perhaps I have and am using every single product that Apple has launched in the last 13 years. And, IContinue reading “Remembering you..”
Do we really celebrate Gandhi?
Many believe that he is not a Mahatma, a honorific bestowed upon him by the inimitable and peerless Rabindranath Tagore. Some, do consider him as an ambassador of peace, non violence and solidarity. World Leaders like Martin Luther King Jr. found an inspiration and a reason to live in Gandhi’s devout and adamant ideologies. Worldwide,Continue reading “Do we really celebrate Gandhi?”
Can we ever unmask?
Masks have become the order of the day. Thanks to the impending dangers of the pandemic, the way we indulge in our daily chores and commitments has drastically and phenomenally changed. In fact, the way our mornings begin, the way we dress up to work (again that is hugely subjective since WFH has become theContinue reading “Can we ever unmask?”
