Make your existence an act of rebellion!

I just and just loved this one!

Love...

All that I want

Love is all I have, You are all I want, Holding your hands, is all I crave for, Your lap is all, where I wanna rest, Your eyes are all, I wanna dive in, Your words are all, that I wanna hear, You are all I want, You are all I crave for, You are all my heart yearn for...

Come away with me...

Come away with me, and I will take you to the city of dreams... Come away with me, And I will give all that you need... Come away with me, And I will write you a lovely song... Come away with me, And I will give you all that you have been craving for... Come away with me, And I will sketch you a beautiful picture... Come away with me, And I will fill your life with colors... Come away with me, Holding my hand, Somewhere far I will take you, And I will never let you go...

And U.P continues to bleed...

Me and mom were having our general gossip session over phone, few days back. We were just generally talking about the social and political situation in U.P. BTW, don't get surprised, that's one of our favorite topics! We both love to talk about politics:) Anyways, so she told me about the situation that U.P is currently in: its messy, its chaotic and completely sad. Its not that this is something new. U.P had been in this messy situation from years now. That's what I was feeling surprised as in why Mom is cribbing about it this time. I mean I have grown up there and have been seeing that place in this poor situation since then. And I also thought and realized that people had actually stopped expecting anything from any new CM, whether it is Mayawati or Mulayam or anybody else for that matter. It stopped mattering to them. They knew that the claims made before the elections would again prove to be a delusion. Infact, People just stopped feeling sad and disheartened at the

And the mountains echoed: Khaled Hosseini

I finished reading "And the mountains echoed" by Khaled Hosseini. Let me begin by getting you acquainted with the fact that I am a huge-huge fan of this one author. He is simply remarkable. With his books, I just have no patience to wait and read it leisurely. I mean, be it Kite Runner, be it The thousand splendid suns or be it this latest one, I have finished them all in a span of just 2-3 days! Even I feel astonished and wonder from where do I manage to steal time for his books! I have no idea and genuinely, I have no idea! I just leave everything and surrender myself completely to his books. Man, they have that power, that amazing command over you. The story just engulfs you and something continuously keeps on poking you from inside to know the story ahead. Anyways, back to the review of the book. It is good but only if you do not have the same expectations of Kite Runner from it. I loved the way it started. It began with a bedtime tale being told to two children,

We, women are indeed hard to understand

It is difficult to understand a woman - you must have surely heard men cribbing about this more often. Yes sir, we are hard to understand. The point is we women, ourselves are unable to understand our wiring system, the way our brains and hearts have been structured, why do we do certain things, why do we behave in certain pre defined ways, why are we so unpredictable. We are still on the verge of finding answers to these terrible questions about ourselves. How can you expect yourself to find out the answers? “I'm tough, I'm ambitious, and I know exactly what I want. If that makes me a bitch, okay.” ― Madonna Is it that lately, I have started writing too much about women? May be, I have been dealing with a lot of them these days:) I just love and appreciate our energy, passion, multitasking abilities. We are, no doubt wonderful. But then, I believe there are few things where we really become too hard for people around us to understand. Anyways, this one is completely bas

Timepass:the memoirs of Protima Bedi

Just finished reading Timepass:the memoirs of Protima Bedi. I am really confused on where to begin with! Anyways, I loved the name "Timepass". It implies that we all are here in this world to do timepass in our own ways.True! So, this book is completely about Protima bedi: wife of Kabir Bedi and one of the most famous of modern Indian classical dancers (of the Odissi style). This book has really jolted me out of so many misconceptions about life, with such a forceful thrust! Before reading this book, I had come across many things about Protima Bedi: the famous and the obvious being the one where she apparently ran nude on a beach in Mumbai!!! As per this book, she was at Anjuna beach in Goa with hippies and everybody was in the same condition and so was she! Somebody took her pics there and made up the Mumbai story. And what else, as usual, she was given the tag of being crazy! Let me brief you about this lady's character first: - A rebel - Insurgent - Audacious

Kishore Kumar's amazing interview

Read this amazingly awesome interview of Kishore Kumar! What a treat to the senses. Read it... It will surely make you fall off your chair holding your stomach! Believe me... Its just superb... And the best is: the moment you think you can relax and nothing hilarious is gonna happen, it will be there in the next reply of KK and again you will be bound to fall off the chair:) Its just mind blowing! Am I the only one, who is fan of such weird, peculiar people whom world has already given a tag of being crazy! I like such people:) They are just and just so gallant, so courageous that they do not even care a bit about society, about what people would think about them, what perception they would create of them. They are audacious enough to give a damn to this society. Its just an outstanding feeling when you see someone slapping directly on the face of this 'sane' world and actually proving them insane! Go ahead, read it:) I am sure you will love it:) http://timesofindia.indi

Don't you feel like being a child again?

Feels awesome to be back to my space... How much I missed it!!! Got so much stuck with worldly stuff that I dint get any time to write or even think about something:( Crazy crazy world, I say! Anyways, but today I made it a point to visit my little space and to say hi to it:) And here I am! Yayyyy... Now when I am here, I am feeling  compelled to write something. Let me pen down about this weird and stupid issue that I am going through these days. It's not an issue exactly, it's something very normal... But my stupid brain just denies to accept this fact! It is frequently and repeatedly trying hard to convince me that this thing is an issue! Ahhhhhh.....! Ok... no more playing with the words. The thing is recently a part of me: that is somewhere within, have started pestering me to grow up! May be its because few stupid best-ies of mine have been telling me that! Grrrrr....and this is the issue that my poor brain is dealing with these days. It doesn't want me to gr
