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.

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...
