Pain

This pain tears me apart
This pain makes me alive

This pain of knowing you love me keeps me afloat
This pain of loving you silently sinks me

This pain of knowing you care for me makes me want to spin
This pain of not being able to care for you makes me want to die

This pain of knowing how much you give up for me keeps me sane
This pain of not being able to reciprocate drives me insane

This pain of knowing how much you ache for me grounds me
This pain of not being able to tell you how much I ache for you drives me wild

This pain of you caressing me centres me
This pain of not being able to touch you destroys me

This pain of you calling me lights me up
This pain of not being able to talk to you crushes me

This pain of you being invested in me makes me a better person
This pain of not being there for you ruins me

This pain that I give you makes me soulless
This pain that I can't share with you makes me lifeless

Thappad

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...
