A thought struck me and I wondered about it. I thought of love and the human search for it. All of us have a picture of it in our minds, how it should be, what the person should be like, look like, what they should do, what they shouldn’t do, what quantities they should have…It’s like the world is a...

‘Dor’
I watched 'Dor' today. As always Nagesh Kukunoor has done a good job. The story of two women and their different lives in two corners of India and yet they are tied together by the strings of circumstance. An amazing insight into a woman’s life with its joys and challenges. Only a woman can want revenge...

Striving for Permanence
A few days earlier I was chatting with a friend who asked me when I would return. I replied in good humour that I would return when I felt I was missed enough, to which he said that wouldn’t happen; what would happen though was that I would be forgotten and then remembered once in a while.Today as I...

The Mind
Had a close call on the road last Saturday and later was analyzing it. First of all what happened was as I was cruising along when the tempo in front of me stopped, hence I moved to the left of the road and realized that a bullock cart was crossing the road at an angle and I didn't really have enough...

Zinda
Ahh... Finally saw Zinda on Thursday. I had liked the concept while watching the rushes and had wanted to watch it. It’s a good movie, not something to watch repeatedly but a good first watch. At no point do you really get bored. No songs that have you going oh no, not another song. All largely built...

Wind, Water, Earth
“ I thought we could flow together”, said water,And wind said, “But I want the sky”“Don’t you think that’s a little too highI can’t give you the whole skyBut in the stillness of me, you’ll find a piece of it lies”“That isn’t enough, I want more”Water had thought they were so the sameBut this was turning...
Love : a new theory
"Love: An irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired." - Mark Twain So true ain't it. Love isn't only about wanting but more about being wanted. We women and men, each in our own ways want the same. Women want to be told how much they are loved, how they are indespensible in the mans life. How he...

One Flaw In Women
By the time the Lord made woman, He was into his sixth day of working overtime. An angel appeared and said, "Why are you spending so much time on this one?" And the Lord answered, "Have you seen my spec sheet on her? She has to be completely washable, but not plastic, have over 200 movable parts,...

Death
It’s so hard to explain. For centuries people have tried to know what lies on the other side and no one has a definite answer. It’s the one thing in life that is inevitable. There is no escape from it. It can be painful or just peaceful. But then again that is from the onlookers perspective no one knows...

Biases
India is a country built on diversity. No country compares to its diversity, whether it is the terrain, people or culture. No matter which part of India you go to, you will find variety. The plains in the center; green forests, back waters, humid marshy swamps, rolling beaches in the south; green and...
