vintage bits

Coming out of darkness to regain calm is mortal, I braced out of sunshine to visit better borders. Vision and contemplation were undoubtedly kindled, Hopes, vicious hopes and much more played tantrums. Curiously joyous and provocatively desirable, hungry to achieve. More. Continuos regeneration and demanding minds let go of myself in a quest. First, thenContinue reading “vintage bits”

I have a self confessed fascination for legacy, and it certainly gives a road map to our roots. After all, today is risen from the past that paves the way for tomorrow. Seldom acknowledged, though. You will see some shots which are by far, the most revered ones. Those were the times when my photographicContinue reading “Archives”

Lots, and coming in..

Has been a good and hectic time of pandora around with glitz and curiosity in equal measures. No, not because of Germany’s triumph but for the vanquished ones. Have always been an admirer of Albiceleste since school days and those sentiments probably stick around. Not to mention, I played ‘pada’ football during much of myContinue reading “Lots, and coming in..”

Tale of four cities

Lawrence of Arabia http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056172/ A pedigree of class and indulgence, this Academy de noir was a spectacular voyage. More than half a decade later, it still ranks high amidst world heritage stuff. Gloriously shot, it captures the glitz of sand and vivacity of the deserts with enormous thirst. The lengthy golden traits, the exquisite sightsContinue reading “Tale of four cities”

Nation’s Notion: Review – Midnight’ Children (A Deepa Mehta Film)

As a nation, we have transcended and befell before rising amidst tumultuous weathers. Freedom in 1947 is alright, but the transition was as beleaguered as the nation itself that was standing amongst perennial ruins. The sacrifices were largely destructive; the indelible impressions of such are still fighting the storms, till date. Deepa Mehta dwells IndiaContinue reading “Nation’s Notion: Review – Midnight’ Children (A Deepa Mehta Film)”

When God leaves fraternity, there is an unearthed celebration within the veins of mourning. I have to admit that his departure from the game will bring a platonic end to the childhood within myself. My passion persists for the game notwithstanding, feels like a great amount of melancholy lies within the era that saw usContinue reading “10”

random and voltage..

second coming..

“life isn’t your bane, you are!” This isn’t a typical comeback, but then with plausible child monotony, this could be a turnaround. Or, may be, it does act as a litmus test. Nevertheless, does with darned fortunes. I am in joy with the city that possibly, and inevitably, made me. I am a believer inContinue reading “second coming..”

a voyage of a different kind..

The last 3 weeks have been crazy, probably crazier than I thought it would be. But didn’t surprise myself as the transition ought to be instrumental in shaping me in the next few months. Not nerves but a feeling described yet not exported in its vague bonanza. Pre nuptial-knot days were thrilling and some fineContinue reading “a voyage of a different kind..”

as the calypso sang..

As I watched Gayle’s exploits at the Premadasa while the Windies lifted the World T20 championship, the glares of the past could be seen lingering within. Can’t say ‘ghosts’ since any sport and its defeat stand distraught in terms of performance and the characters that hugely inflict the impact of such profound greatness. Dad chippedContinue reading “as the calypso sang..”
