This is what we are...

I have 2 cute younger sisters. And as they are growing up, I am bound to notice so many similarities that we share. Actually, on widening my approach, I could see some or the other part of me in every girl I know. And I thought I am different! hahhh... Such an illusionary thought you had gal!

Anyways, guess there is a set of qualities that every normal Indian girl inherits. There is a set of things that you will find all of us doing. Somewhere or the other, we all are same. Yes, we are!

At teen age, you will find us extremely shy but also, audacious enough whenever required. You will find us clutching the books in our hands with a backpack, looking down and walking on the road quietly towards college.

You will find us giggling and laughing with our group of friends. You will find a quest in us, a crave to see and feel the outer world. You will see the bright sparkles of our dreams in our eyes. You will find us dreaming about our bright future more often. You will find us locked in our rooms, disconnected from the outer world, for our studies.

You will find us watching DDLJ, Pretty woman, Runaway bride and many other romantic comedies again and again, sitting on a couch with tears in our eyes feeling the exact pain of those lovers getting drifted apart. You will find us drooling silently over Sharukh Khan, Hugh Jackman, Jude Law and all the hot hunks out there. You might also find their postcards/ pictures hidden inside the covers of our books. You will find us having a new crush everyday. You will find us loving someone discreetly. You will find us writing his name with all the hearts and decorations.

You will find us helping our moms in the kitchen for every single meal. You will find us keeping fast for the well being of our family. You will find us visiting temples and doing all the pujas religiously. You will find us shaking a leg over hard English numbers secretly in our rooms. You will find us watching cricket, tennis or football with our dads or brothers and enjoying it immensely. You will find us pampering our siblings to the limit of spoiling them. You will find us loving our families like nobody else.

You will find us blushing to know about someone who likes us. You will find us chuckling on getting teased. You will find a tender innocence in us.

You will find us making sacrifices at each and every step of our lives and not making a hue and cry about it. You will find us getting married to the man accepted by our families. You will find us fulfilling each and every wish of everyone in our families. You will find us getting emotionally connected with everything in our homes. You will find us doing things to woe people around us. You will always find us making attempts to keep everyone smiling and happy.

You will often find us feeling alone and lonely. You will often find us thinking about this strange thing called marriage where we are sent away from our parents. You will often find us cribbing about this injustice. You will often find us craving to go back to our old lives, to our families. You will often find us crying in the nights silently. You will again find us smiling next day. You will find us hiding everything behind our smiles.

You will find us giving ourselves totally to the person we love. You will find us doing all sort of weird things to make and keep them happy. You will find us creating our world around them.

You will find us getting successful in our careers. You will find us creating such an amazing balance between our families and work. Still, you will find us unfulfilled and unhappy with everything around. You will find us often wondering at our lives.

You will find us longing for love. You will find us yearning for respect. You will find us looking out for someone who would love us wholeheartedly. You will find us often searching for something. You will find us discontented. You will find us moody. You will find us intolerable at times. You will find us craving to get free. You will find a passion in us for flying and touching that blue sky. You will find us staring at the sky in dark nights. You might often find us unreasonable. You will find us jealous. You will find us envious at times.

You will find us doing things for ourselves too. You will find us reading one of our fav books. You will find us shopping and spending all the salary on something we really liked. You will find us wearing our fav pair of jeans and tee. You will find us wearing different and weird colors all over. You will find us going out with friends for a drink. You will find us screaming, shouting and dancing on one of the theque's floor. You will find us giving a damn to the world. You will find us confident. You will find us doing things that we love.You will find us looking straight into the eyes of the world.

You will find us brightening your day with a giggle. You will find us pampering you and loving you. You will find us everywhere. Yes, this is what we are, this is who we are!

Wear your success and confidence like a T-Shirt and not a Tuxedo!

I was reading an interview of Priyanka Chopra in one of the magazines the other day and there was one thing which she said and which captivated my mind immediately and frankly, I do not remember anything from that interview apart from that one thing! To some ques, she replied “Wear your success and confidence like a T-Shirt and not like a tuxedo!!!” Wowww… what a saying and how true… If you can carry your success in a subtle and a causal way, nothing like it… But that’s an art! Believe me! Carrying your success in a positive and a natural way is really not easy! I mean its like being flamboyant but in a natural way! But the problem here is presenting this flamboyancy into a natural way sans attitude which most of the people, unfortunately are incapable of doing! Ahhhh…. And great are the people who sometimes cross limits of showing off! They just love to show off and cant live without it: They show off their wealth, their status, their success and some people are even much horrib...

The transformation of an arranged marriage to a love one!

“If I get married, I want to be very married.”  ― Audrey Hepburn Arranged marriages: Lets look at what wikipedia says about it: Arranged marriage is a type of marital union where the bride and groom are selected by a third party rather than by each other. It was common worldwide until the 18th century. Wait a second, does that say '18th century'. Yes, it indeed does. The world has moved on, and we, Indians are stuck, stuck in between a combat. A fight of deciding where to go, which side to choose and whom to follow: our old traditional culture or the west.  Anyways, arranged marriages still accounts for an overwhelming majority of marriages that happens on our land. Though we do celebrate love, but only in movies and we are doing that since last 4 decades, but when it comes to applying it literally, it suddenly becomes a stigma! Love marriages are still considered a taboo in major parts of our society. Anyways, I am definitely not here to mak...

Dear Myntra and Flipkart, thanks for snatching away my freedom!

“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.”  ―  Charlotte Bront├л ,  Jane Eyre I am an avid Shopaholic, a compulsive one! At times, I feel this is some kind of a disorder I am going through. The moment my salary is credited into my account, I start shopping! And within the first week, I am broke, I am left with no bones! And the rest of the month goes in waiting for the next salary! Its like my wallet has a hole. I guess it has... Anyways, boom of the online shopping sites have actually galvanised this disorder, much to my disdain. The moment I get little time in office, at home or for that matter anywhere on this planet, I just open my laptop and start browsing, drooling over the thousands and thousands of pretty shoes, dresses, accessories, just craving to see them in my wardrobe! I just always open these sites with an idea, rather a very clear one of 'window shopping' but then, in the middle I don't know wh...
