    Ode to a city

    I'll miss this city. I'll miss this lazy city with all its morning rush and night quiet. There's always the romanticism particularly found in endings. For instance the constant scorching heat at noon, and the absolute insistence to not budge from the sky-high auto prices. I forget them all with an umbrella and an Uber app. With the possessiveness I never knew I had, I started to defend this place and its shortcomings. “It's an absolutely amazing place to learn, you know” or “Who cares about the lack of nightlife if you have the right set of people”. I go from here to the city that has everything, why does it feel emptier to me then?

    Life next to the train tracks

    I have always wondered how it would be to live next to the train tracks. Not romanticizing it, but being a cranky old lady who would invariably be annoyed at the constant chugga choo-ing.

    Planning Et Cetera

    Last day of the year and I'm sitting here, contemplating on the unpredictability of human life. We plot, we plan, we etch out our days and by we, I mostly mean me, staying true to my narcissistic streak. Does anything remotely beneficial come out of it? Maybe it radiates a sense of false comfort, maybe I plan it all knowing that it's not going to go the same way but maybe, just maybe, I plan it because the possibility that I will regret not planning it, will eat me alive.

    Cutting My Hair

    Fleabag once said that Hair is everything, and yes, I am nobody to question that profound statement. So what exactly is cutting your hair in terms of this revelation, is it offering a possible contradiction? Not for me. It is asserting my dominance over my hair for the briefest possible moment, saying 'no, you're not really everything', before it goes back to reclaim its position.

    An Engineered Dream - A Review

    If just one or two things in our lives were different, it would be us instead of the chosen four and that is the beauty of An Engineered Dream. Poignant and thought-inducing, this documentary is not talking about the big bad wolf that is Kota. Kota has always been that wish-fulfilling factory, maybe not for all, but for a very reasonable number. It’s a sacrifice you take for yourself, ‘yourself’ being the keyword and we can overlook the fact that Kota brings dreams into realisation in what ever extreme way it can, but only if that dream is ours and not ‘engineered’.
