Understandings and Misunderstandings!

Sometimes one can make an effort to try and understand people but they make it so damn hard!
You keep making excuses for their behaviour and keep giving them the benefit of the doubt, but maybe they are just not worth it!
So cut them loose!
We just have SO many grey cells and I am sure that they are much better utilized with other stuff!
We can keep obsessing over why people are doing, what they are doing.... And how can they not do it!
But let it be!
Maybe they are just not worth it...
Or could be that you thought them capable of stuff they have absolutely no potential for, so its ultimately your fault.
LET IT GO!
let them be at peace and you be at peace too.
Remember, all that humans do is directed towards achieving comfort and contentment so let all the barbs go and life is so much better.
So in conclusion the only way to avoid a misunderstanding is to make sure that you understand that some people are so not worth it.
Whew writing here sometimes puts things into perspective for me and I hope that i can follow my own advice now.
God help me!:-)

Monica, O My Darling

Straight off the bat, let me tell you that I went into this movie cold. I just saw the trailer and put it on my watch list. I was totally enamored with the cast and the premise. I knew I was going to watch this one, so I didn't delve into the promotional shenanigans.  So if you are of the same bent of mind, stop reading and start watching.  And on your behalf, I did Google Ankola, it is a town in Karnataka and is not to be confused with Akola in Maharashtra. Ha ! Ha! Netflix has been delighting us with gems like Raat Akeli thi, Haseen dilruba and Bulbul. Add this one to that list and think Gehraiyaan. I need not stress on the proficient star cast. They are masters of their craft. Starting with the sneaky Rajkummar Rao, the sultry Huma Quereshi and the wily Radhika Apte, the ensemble includes the creepy Sukant Goel, the beleaguered Zayn Marie and many others. For me Sikandar Kher was a standout. A shoutout to his intensity and his baritone.  The dialogues are spot on and t...

Qala

Anvita Dutt, is a master story teller. And she, tells this one well too. She and Kanika Dillon have a knack of painting their leading ladies in shades of grey. Whilst Kanika brings in the whacky and the wild, Anvita brings in the angst. It makes for great entertainment.  This movie seeps in slowly and is for those of you who like the slow burn. There is drama and angst and tragedy and it leaves you wondering, what did I just watch? Was this a movie or sheer art? And it is a movie that stays with you for a bit.  The visuals are stunning, particularly those of the boat on the water. The noir-ish feel of the movie fits the mood perfectly. One does know what has happened and why, but the visuals and the artistry keep you in thrall. This is the story of a woman, who learns to be competitive in her mother's womb itself. Her quest for survival began in the womb itself. She then spends all her childhood and teen years having only her mother and constantly craving her validation. Is ...

Chhapak

Chhapak I stand in line at Starbucks and take forever to decide what drink I want, what size it should be, what flavour should go in, what milk is to be used...so on and so forth. So many choices... Imagine if you had no nose, and the doctor treating you asked you to make a choice of the type of nose you wanted? If you sink into it, Chhapak gives you many such moments of introspection. You can't call Chhapak an entertainer and you couldn't label it a documentary. It's a biography in a genre of its own. The last time something invaded my being like this was the documentary on Amy Winehouse. I make no bones about it, this is an extremely tough film to watch and you will carry it with you for days. But watch it you must, for the crafty screenplay which will hold you in thrall as will the strength with which Meghna Gulzar directs this. I have said this before, and I say it again, the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree. It is the story of an Acid Attack Survivor, Laxmi Ag...
