His Touch!!

Thursday, June 27, 2013

Sometimes reality seems more unreal than dreams. It was a similar day with dew drops on the windows and sun shining shyly among the beautifully dark colored clouds, when he met me. i was waiting to hear from him since we last met and departed, promising each other to be in touch. A promise he soon broke. Today he was here on my door looking straight into my eyes. I felt he was not looking at me but at all the pain he'd caused me, all the sleepless nights of thinking about him, all the tears he'd given me and my broken heart which will never be healed. I was at a loss of words, I was overwhelmed by his presence in my house. He gently  touched my face and shivers ran through my spine. It was not me he was touching , it was my self-respect and my resolve of not meeting him ever that he'd touched. He made me forget all the pain and heartache with just one touch. What was about him that made me crazy?? I had dreamt about this moment many a times and cried later understanding the fact that it was just a dream. But today it wasn't a dream he was here, was I falling in love all over again or was it just his touch that I had longed for?? Was he here for me or was he here for himself??

It was definitely the magic of his touch that transported me back to the days where it was just me, him and our love. I was prettier, because of his love. It was definitely magic. Today all that seems like dream that I had lived.

Why was he here I asked him. He looked deep into my eyes and told me he was in love. I wondered was he talking about me, then he held my hand and told me he was in love with someone else, who reminded him of me. He was here to seek my approval to move on, he wanted my blessings. But how could I?? I thought for a moment his hand still holding mine, his touch still making me mad. I said "You are free!!". That was the last I ever saw him 30 years ago, he smiled at me and left. but his touch still lingers in my memories. It was magic and it still has a spell on me.. his touch!!

Dilli Dilwalon Ki!!!

Tuesday, April 24, 2012

Hi,

These are some of the pictures from my last Delhi visit.. Dellhi has always fascinated me, all the colors .. buzzing life and most of all the street food. Unfortunately since Iwas pregnant I could't indulge in any of the street food :(

But there was something I noticed , the lovely contrast of Khan Market and Chandni Chowk.. one was niche Delhi and the other was typical Dilli. I love the way Delhi and Dilli co-exist..

Well, that's all for now.. I shall be back soon..

Cheers!!

Hey Blog World,

Long time.. I know I was stuck in a real bad situation.. but as always i fought my way out of it..
You know they say "it needs a catastophe to realize who your real friends are".. i totally agree with the great mind who concieved this thought..

I have been through a lot lately at my work place ..  and i was fortunate enough to have a couple of great friends to hold me and help me out of the situation.. it was great to know that there are some people in the world who love you unconditionally.. and for whom it doesnt matter whether you have a fancy job or no..Also who love you even when they knew you were at fault from the very first day..

I can only thank God for blessing me with a great family and super friends.. without whom i wouldnt have been able to survive..

:)

Film Review: Band Baaja Barat

Sunday, December 12, 2010

Writing film reviews is not my style, but this particular film deserves all the accolade it can collect. Band Baaja Barat is a family entertainer and cute film so to say. First time director Maneesh Sharma has proved that he is very talented and has captured the Dilli up to the mark. The story is easy flowing and the film leaves you with a smile on your face. the music of the film is not very great but the title track is very catchy and likeable, so is Avainyi Avainyi.The look and costumes are very true to the characters and are very real. The only speed breaker is the love making scene which again is not shot badly, it is very classy despite the fact that the leads were making love in there 10 x 10 shop.

Now let me give you a summary of the film, its the story of Shruti Kakkar  played by Anushka Sharma a determined Dilliwali who wishes to become a Wedding Planner. Bitto Sharma played by Ranveer Singh is a lost youngster from Saharanpur who would do anything but help his father in farming. Both meet in a wedding and Bitto tries to woo Sonu, but as fate has it they end up being partners in Wedding Planning business (or as Bittoo pronounces it BINNESS). They hit it off and are complementary to each other until one day Shruti finds herself in love with Bittoo, everything starts to go wrong and Bittoo isn't even aware of his feelings, rest you should go and see for yourself.

As for the actors Anushka Sharma has finally arrived she is too good as Shruti and is convincing as a strong headed Dilliwali. Newcomer Ranveer Singh is gonna give Ranbir and Imraan a run for their money, he is supremely talented as an actor, he is so confident that you start to believe in his character. Even the rest of the supporting cast is impressive. Hats off to Maneesh Sharma and  Habib Faisal for a youth film which is actually has a story. In this era of senseless films like "Break Ke Baad" and "Anjaana Anjani" which are made on huge ass budgets and shitty storylines , do not live upto their promises Band Baaja Barat is a genuine gem. 

My verdict : Band Baaja Barat is a paisa vasool entertainer and a great film for all age groups.

Black Berry Addiction

Monday, September 6, 2010

Ever noticed people using their Blackberry’s in the middle of a meeting, the way they keep typing and glancing at there BB as if it was God? Well, I do the same and I would like to share why do we do so even when it’s extremely irritating for others.

The deal with BB is earlier BB was a status symbol and only people who were like the CEO’s or in our field big-ass Producers were the ones who possessed a BB.But now things have changed. I am so shit angry with BB manufacturers because last year in August – September (2009) they launched there cheapest model “Curve” and that changed the face of BB in India. I was one of the first people to buy and flaunt the BB. But my reason of buying a BB was completely different I wanted a phone where I could send and receive mails and send attachments at the same time, also because I threw my earlier phone Nokia E71 in a toilet (accidentally, it is again a funny story I will share later).


I simply loved the whole idea of using a BB and I can’t even tell you how happy it made me when for the first time I sent a mail to my senior Creative Director with that little line at the end saying “SENT ON MY BLACKBERRY FOR VODAFONE”

Oh!! it was divine, I anyways am a show-off and now I had a BB so things were great, I had only seen my ‘extreme senior’ people using it and read about BB users in all the Chick-lit books of mine but the joy of having one was beyond words can express. But soon the bloody phone got popular and the next person to by it in my office was my immediate Boss (no points for guessing the same person I sent the first BB mail to). Curve became so common that now every Tom-Dick & Harry has a BB and owning one is not such a big deal at all.

Blackberry is a business phone essentially but now even college students, actors, models, shopkeepers, even housewives possess a BB. I am so disappointed. The only way I can still be a BB user and don’t lose the class is upgrade myself from a Curve to a Bold or Bold 2, which I am seriously looking forward to, for now I keep changing my phone covers. I have different type of phone covers as you can see in the pictures but right now my favorite is the “Diamonte” cover which I specially went to Bandra(I rarely go to bandra as my office is at Goregoun and I stay at Juhu, also now I don’t by road side stuff from Linking Road ), picked it up for 900 bucks. I am so proud of it. I loooooooove it. This clearly shows I am a BLINGOHOLIC and proud to be one.

I wish to buy upgraded BB soon...

Monsoon - the most overrated season

Wednesday, July 14, 2010


I have grown up hearing people praise monsoon and how!! There have been poets who have written verses in praise of rains and rainy season. Almost every writer and poet has written good things about the same. People have been having this great affinity for rains. But according to me this season is a bit too overrated, what can be great about filth? It has been 4 years I have been living in Mumbai and unfortunately have witnessed monsoon here. Believe you me rains bring out the worst in Mumbai it is water logging almost everywhere and that too smelly sewer water. Even when the BMC claims they have cleaned all the sewers still some how the filthy, smelly, dirty water finds its way on the main roads. I am put up at Juhu which is one of the most posh areas in Mumbai but I have to face water logging even when it had just rained for 10 mins. It’s just sad. Some times I feel sad for Mr. Bachchan, poor thing he earns shit loads of money and has huge ass bunglows in Juhu still when he steps out of the house he has water logged in the bloody bunglow compound.

I am amazed at the spirit of some people I have a colleague she travels from Worli to Goregaon everyday by Local trains and she is never ever late, she has been working here for past 11 years and I just can’t understand how she manages in the bloody rainy season. When ever I ask her the same she happily replies “Abhi toh mereko aadat pad gayi hai”. This is what is the problem with us “Hum logon ko har cheez ki aadat pad jati hai” and we mould ourselves accordingly nobody wants to do anything about it.

Anyways I am sounding like Krantiveer’s Nana Patekar, I should stop now. The whole deal is when I went to Singapore I was awed by the civic sense of the people and there was a day when it rained heavily there but the water was so clean and I didn’t mind hopping in it, I can’t even imagine doing that here. I will die of the smell only. However coming back to the spirit of Mumbai, have you noticed that whatever happens the people fight every situation and manage to reach work on time, they don’t mind getting wet and walking in knee height water to reach their destination. Amazing isn’t it?

Anyhow, have you ever noticed those beggar kids jumping in dirty water at the signals and smelling like shit and then coming and touching you when you are happily traveling back from work? I am sure everyone has been there and faced that I feel like bloody killing those guys.

Also have you ever experienced something like this, say it is raining heavily you step out of the office to go home and after struggling for half-hour you get a rickshaw and you are thanking god for his mercy, as you are not wet and you have finally gotten a rickshaw, you take out your phone call the love of your life that I’ll be home in whatever-time. Then relaxed you light a cigarette and put your I-pod and having a nice time when suddenly from somewhere this huge SUV comes the driver is playing loud music and comes like wind and splashes water all over and drives away. Leaving you wet and abusing. Even the rickshawwala starts laughing at you condition. Again I get the same feeling of killing the SUV driving bastard.

One more and most important reason to hate monsoon, is I have lost exactly 13 umbrellas in 4 years and have sacrificed at least 6 pair of shoes in the m@#$%^ing rains.

I simply hate Monsoon. I know many of you won’t agree with me, but that is how I am. 
And for those who love the concept of sitting at home and sipping coffee when its raining outside, enjoy!!
