An Adulterated Life
Call girls. Prostitutes. Nymphs. Even worse, sluts and whores. Even an elite bitch works like magic. Doesn’t matter how derogatory and pervert these words are, whether you like it or not, these words have a life of their own. And precariously, they live amongst civilians like us, living a nomadic journey of sleuth and ignominy.Continue reading “An Adulterated Life”
குரங்கு பொம்மை
When man becomes the animal. When friendship wins over cash.
মা আসছেন
The arrival of Maa, the supreme goddess of love and blessing. The epitome of goodness and nemesis of the evil.
Encounters with Water
It was humid, sweaty and hot. It led us to the place of perennial relief. Our ‘Massive Friendly Neighboring Beach’! It was dark but we could see the lights shoving up whine the earthly clouds. Clouds did not have enough water, but the sea did. Sunshine eluded us but we could walk on the sandContinue reading “Encounters with Water”
The Reluctant Princess
A woman who never wanted to be a princess. But desires and destiny intermingle in this story of love and struggle to survive.
9/11. Change-versary.
Yes. We changed. World changed. Everything else around changed. In fact, I have bleak memories of how this world looked before the apocalypse. Our outlook to America, our attitude towards terrorism (we now call it global post 9/11), our stand as global nations against one unified enemy. All this changed. And somewhere, it changed usContinue reading “9/11. Change-versary.”
When fear is pain
When he went through the ordeal around the same time last year and came out with a courageous smile, I saluted his tenacity and positivity. I was reassured. He has a long life ahead. One year down the line, and today, I have been thinking hard. After this phone call, I sat and was sittingContinue reading “When fear is pain”
Has Apple Dis-Evolved?
I am not sure, but am quite certain. A company and the co founder who were once emphatically accused of ambushing other products are in a wave of jilted revolution. If I can say that. Even though Apple is a super power and Steve Jobs’s DNA is the foundation of this company. But it isContinue reading “Has Apple Dis-Evolved?”
Immersed in Self
It is not a lonely place. It’s just that you wanted to be left alone. You and water, remain separated till you want to. Get together when you want to. The important thing is, you wanted to. State of mind is an art, you would rather give it a miss.
Taramani – Redemption
A ‘run of the mill’ Tamil film is the usual order of the day, but for films like ‘Taramani’ who try to lend a magic hand beyond furnished boundaries. Don’t literally sit on the title and wane about the correlation. I think correlation lies in the subject, not in the title. In fact, Harry PotterContinue reading “Taramani – Redemption”
Sun Days
Day or night, the sun never goes down. It wallops, it gallops, it eats your head, it vibrates. But never goes down. Glittering waters or the artistry of the clouds. Deep meanders or open flings. It ain’t going down. Sun never goes down. Hope never goes down. We are hope.
