Way Forward

So that’s where I am. I am focussing on the journey at the moment, not very concerned about the destination. A more contextual analysis of the existing situation is on the cards. I have never been on this ship before, but I take that as a challenge to positively inspire me. The journey so farContinue reading “Way Forward”

Shocking!

I have been quite disturbed since the terror attack in Pahalgam yesterday. In July 2023, I was in Pahalgam with my family and parents (our first outing together in India after my return from UK). Had fate intervened then (which I now believe was quite possible), the script could have been totally different. The veryContinue reading “Shocking!”

The Perfect Shot

It almost looks like a painters’s canvas, describing the ethos of darkness in a stunning combination of vividness and silence. Shot @ Edinburgh, Scotland, 2022.

Cinematic Gems ~ Lifeoholic Diaries ~ 3.3.25

******** ###The Girl with the Needle### an msk REVIEW. A film that so audaciously depicts disaster in a parallel tone of positivity and evil – will leave you stunned, shunned and in awe. The way characters make a living out of misery, contempt, disguise and failure is a testament to the director’s vision that hasContinue reading “Cinematic Gems ~ Lifeoholic Diaries ~ 3.3.25”

Sunshine Days

This is so quintessentially me 😊. One of those things in life that I love to do – Photography and Travel. I think it keeps me grounded, capturing glimpses of the world around, experiencing different cultures and meet interesting people. And of course, all that good food which comes with the package. It is aContinue reading “Sunshine Days”

Survival

Sometimes, you just have to go through the motions to stay afloat. Stay hopeful despite odds, despite not feeling very well, with all the noise inside, you just have to remain quiet for a while. The last couple of weeks were tough but I was surrounded by positivity and good vibes, people who genuinely caredContinue reading “Survival”

2024 – The Year That Was

~Love~Hopes~Dreams~Resilience~ To better days. To sunshine. Cheers ❤️💐🎇🙏 ~A Year in Pictures~

Friday Vibes

A distinctive photograph! Sometimes, such a perfect shot explains sanity over insanity. The essence of it is quite subjective, so I would rather leave it to you to derive a meaning out of it. I am sure, whatever comes out of it will define your perspective.

The Flying Point

The landscape of airports in the country has transformed spectacularly in the last 10 years or so. Chennai Airport is no exception to this transition period. Airports are not merely to board and land these days, they have become much more than just a place from flights take off from one destination to another. AirportsContinue reading “The Flying Point”

Liverpool Story – Throwback

Liverpool was my first brush with UK, way back in 2014. And in a lot of ways, remains very close to my heart. We got down at Manchester Airport and then took a train to Liverpool Lime Street station. Organically positioned between the City Centre and Merseyside, it exudes charm and a certain amount ofContinue reading “Liverpool Story – Throwback”

Kashmir ki Wadiyan

Visiting Kashmir in July last year was a unique experience. We have visited many hill stations in the last 20 years, but this was different. Kashmir is a bundle of beauty, magnificence and anxiety. A place where you can feel love and hatred in the same frame, a place where fear and bliss live together,Continue reading “Kashmir ki Wadiyan”

The Golden Temple, Amritsar

Our visit to the holy place was nothing short of a dream that finally came true. In the bucket list for eternity, this is now truly ‘Done’. Truly, a divine experience! Merely just setting our foot in the largest Gurudwara was indeed a cherished moment, something which cannot be described in simple words. After aContinue reading “The Golden Temple, Amritsar”
