Timepass

I have no time limit and no fixed slot for you.
Never have!
Never will!

You on the other hand have me neatly slotted.
You speak to me only when time permits.
You have fixed a time limit,
And you have fixed frequencies.
I am aware the slots shall keep reducing.
I am aware the frequency shall keep decreasing.
That's alright my love.
I am your pass time.

You encompass me,
All I think of is you,
All I want is you,
You are in my prayers,
And you are the answer to my prayers.

I am your Saturday thought,
And your Sunday timepass,
I am the crutch you hate and need,
I am the splint your broken heart needs,
I am the splint that shall be cast aside once the heart is mended.
That's alright my love,
I am your pass time.

You are in my weekdays,
You are in my work place,
You are in my heart and soul,
You are the reason I smile,
And you are why I see the sunrise.

I am your temporary love,
I am the tea bag in your tea service,
I am the voice that puts you to sleep, And yet,
I am the voice you wish you could hear no longer,
That's alright my love, this time too shall pass,
Till then I am your pass time.

I am the message that is deleted immediately,
You are the message that is saved eternally,
I am the timepass,
You are the reason time stops and moves,
You are the memory card that has a thousand back-ups,
I am auto-erase.
That's right my love,
I am the pass time.

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 ...

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...

Suicides

I am sorry, I am going to come across as terribly insensitive when I have said this but, what is all this fuss about? A celebrity was unable to cope with the pressures of the life he had chosen and gave up on living. I mean have you ever seen a rejected sportsperson commit suicide? And the person in question here actually had a degree from a very prestigious institute and could have looked for another job, but he didn't.  So my take on this is: 1- Nepotism is a fact in all walks of life. 2- A person who is suffering from Clinical Depression is a person who needs to be constantly monitored and a care-taker needs to be assigned, because patients of such depression always experiment with dosages and such. They also cease to take their medications. 3- Here it seems to have been the sister who was the designated care-taker, so why isn't she being questioned? 4- Also the doctor who was treating him said that SSR had discontinued his treatment. The correct protocol is to m...
