Nurture and Nourish

Buy a pot.
Fill it with soil.
Add a little manure.
Sprinkle in Love.

Sow the seeds.
Water daily.
Turn over the soil.
Shower it with Love.

Guard it from the harsh sun.
Save it from the pouring rain.
Warm it in the winters.
Cocoon it in your Love.

Put in sticks to support the seedlings.
Surround it with a fence.
Shoo away the predatory birds.
Lay down your life for it if need be.

Stay awake to keep it company.
Tear away the thorny weeds.
Let the drops of your blood nurture it.
Stand over it like a scarecrow to defend it.

Stand aside,
Watch the flowers bloom,
Stand aside,
Do not dictate what color they should be,
Just love what your seeds have become.

Stand vigilant,
Watch the fruits ripen,
Accept whatever shape they are,
Accept whatever size they are,
Just love what your seeds have given you.

Just Love.......... Unconditionally....

Good Beginnings!

Just created a space for myself and dont know what to write here. But do know that i needed a space to vent,to muse,to express,to generally be silly! Lets see how it goes!

Thappad The prelude to the aria that is Thappad, is a dizzying runabout of a homemaker's humdrum daily chores. It serves to establish the roles each character has established for themselves. The husband played by newbie, Pavail Gulati is wonderfully self-obsessed and completely oblivious to anything but his own needs. The wife played by Tapsee Pannu ( as if we didn't know! Ha ha!) is on the other end of the spectrum. She is hyper aware of the needs of all those around her and revels in being needed and being able to be of service. The nuances that are written into the script are sheer brilliance. Consider the opening montage introducing the main characters to us. The wife being driven about, the girlfriend being received with love and finally a super successful lawyer finding freedom in hanging out a car window. The conversation that ensues between all of them, sketches skillfully the back stories of the lot of them. The movie is far from being a chest beating comment...

Good things come in threes!

For me, good things come in threes………. And yet again, three things that made my week and will for certain go on to make my weekend. A web series – The Ba***ds of Bollywood. This is such a fun ride. I must start with the mockery that is made of the entire Sameer Wankhede incident. They found an actor who closely resembles the real-life officer; it is hilarious. It is just good fun, and should be taken in that spirit, forget the cries of nepotism; I know of generations who practice the same profession repeatedly, so let us give this one a rest, shall we? It has all the ingredients of a bhel puri, and they are used well. So do not watch this one expecting caviar. We have seen Raghav Juyal and Lakshya Lalwani slug it out in Kill and show very good chemistry, so also in this one. One brilliant scene is the one in which the protagonist scares the heebie-jeebies out of a critic, who is totally modeled on Rajeev Masand. Too much fun! And such swagger! And ah Bobby Deol, the phoenix – what...
