I am not much of movie critique, nor I am a story teller. I write once in a while often cryptic & complex, hence doing a lot more explaining and later followed by a tiresome source failure in the whole communication play. It can be debilitating for the message itself. Now I am an enthusiast, […]
Good things & reality
Reality is often seen as good a lot of people I know. Some of us see it the other way. Reality is often just a reflection of the people who make it. And reality strikes when you see it fully. And it is not a pretty sight. Good things do exist but hides behind that […]
Faith lost
A long time ago I had faith and then I lost it. Now I guess it is lurking around.
Blood Spilled
She laughed. Carelessly. The horses rode the waters for a change. Slow, but the visual and the aural made up for the velocity of the horses. The trees swayed to wind. Dusty but windy. The shrubs sashayed in the open. The grass freshened in the evening light. The expectation of rains it seemed. The sun […]

IPL !
IPL is back to India and what a fitting way to celebrate it. India losing a test to SA. Just like how India lost the IPL to SA last year we lost the test to SA. Lalit Modi fittingly has described it as the lack of bandwidth on youtube to the loss. Russel Kumar Shetty, […]
Why our movies are soul less!
Lacking a soul is as bad as it can get. Poignant characters and brilliant photography can take you to another world. And then there is realism which takes rather vociferously to some place else. But every movie cannot have that. Even our characters, hastily developed are far from being are unique. Commercial or art, what […]
The highway!
Common sense says that if you find a bunch of vehicles at one particular stretch of the highway, the stretch following it will have clear road and vice versa. In my previous post I had mentioned that how things never change! It is a matter of perception. Plain and Simple. Change is seen only in […]
What do we stand for?
So 2 trips to Mangalore in a month. Visited the college both times. No nostalgia, nothing has changed. But deja-vu nonetheless. Back then it was the same issue of not being able to say what you wanted to say. Misinterpreted or whatever we can call it. And the ever pertinent question- what do we really […]
Evolution
The human race stopped evolving some years back. Though anthropologists may argue very vocally that there are vivid proofs as to prove evolution of mankind, from a common man’s perspective we have stalled. This might encourage certain groups of people to campaign, only proving that evolution has for all practical purposes stopped. Somewhere in pages […]
