Anything and everything I experience.
Here’s sparing one moment of thought for the consistently overlooked working community – the teachers. COVID has slapped our priorities straight and redefined the very idea of who we call heroes in the world we live in. As to who deserves to be truly rewarded with material returns and immaterial regard has also been redefined.... Continue Reading →
One cloudy afternoon I awaited a time to arrive Squatting on the edge of a pavement At one of the busiest temples India has loved. One of the busiest temples India has loved To seek relentlessly in times high and low To overpower with prayers and woe To submit offerings and in surrender bow To... Continue Reading →
Fire that for ages consumed every element in existence Every little thing flammable and every massive one not Sparing not one thing in the way no matter how essential Do tell, did you find the one that satisfied your hunger? Thriving through levels and levels of devastation Claiming every last bit of what the world... Continue Reading →
Claims that spirituality and the process of ‘finding God’ making people’s lives better have been heard time and again, even from celebrities.

Most people claim they cannot let their guards down thanks to some insecurity inflicted by some past experience and it deprives them of a lot of fulfilling experiences on the way. Even if not as a result of past trauma, most of us... Continue Reading →
I’m usually scared of watching movies that have received as much hype as Parasite has. Four Academy Awards including the fame for being the very first non-English movie to have won Best Film easily catapults expectations to level 1000. I’m just scared that either the work of art will completely go in the opposite direction... Continue Reading →
