Sundays are always wonderful :-)Yesterday was no exception.Though the maid took a french leave and mom was down with a bad stomach,and I did a plethora of house-work,weilding my own two-hands,brandishing my culinery skills with all the veggies I could lay my hands on.As the sweltering day approached an end,the city welcomed a much awaited burst of severe thunderstorm and rain!! "Aaaaahhhhhh......

"...and Rehan's parents were so sweet...not like my Mom,sneaking after me all the time hoping to catch me red handed...she confiscated my cell phone!!! Can you imagine!!!!......ma'am? Are you listening to me,ma'am??", repeated Dimpy, trying to break into Brinda's reverie.Brinda was lost in memories as old as 10 years, no, more,14 years.She was still a school girl with adolescent dreams in her

I just finished watching a telefilm, “Karkatrashi”, or Cancerian.No, this is not a critical analysis of the film that I want to write. Of course, Konkona Sen Sharma excels and exceeds herself in whatever piece of acting she does. With her expressive eyes, prolific acting and down to earth looks, she is the dream of any artiste. But the movie got my thoughts stirring. Thoughts I have always had,

It's another hot afternoon.Long time since I was deprived of the centralised AC of my office.Yes,one major drawback of quitting job,besides getting bored to death and inventing new ways to die.Waking up,jumping on the weighing scale,sighing,switching on the PC,checking mails(as it is non-working people like me dont get many emails),trying to show-off my high level of productivity on Farmville via

What is a relationship??? Can it be pre-defined? Or is the definition circumstantial? “Circumstantial Evidence”! Whew! Sounds like Murder! Many people I know, who are not very comfortable with their Relationships, might actually agree to that. “Relationships are Murder of Privacy and Peace-of-mind”. To be honest, I’m personally very bad at Relationship Management. I keep doing the wrong things

Overall, Paa is another Star to AB’s glittering cine career. But a lot of credit goes to make-up artiste, lighting personnel and cameraman as well. But then, while watching Paa we do forget Amitabh Bachchan. It is only on Auro that one’s attention is fixed. And that’s where the Big B has got the cincher. Of course apart from some close-ups where his eyes give him away.The introductions by Jaya

What do you get when you fall in love?A guy with a pin to burst your bubbleThat's what you get for all your trouble.I'll never fall in love again.I'll never fall in love again.There's this lump, stuck in the throat, that refuses to budge. An emptiness inside. A cynic at full throttle, gurgling from within.Consumerism is good, I argue with my friends, while promoting it towards the growth of

Heat, Dust, Sea, Sand, Sun, Sambhar, Gold, Silk sarees, Temples & Gopurams – are the phenomenal objects that conjure in my mind whenever I think of the city of Chennai, formerly Madras. Very basic, very human.Kamraj Domestic to Anna international to Egmore to Chennai Central – wherever it is you alight from, order of things is present. No pot-holes to hit you. It was always there, it is always

Nothing prepares us for Death. Nothing prepares us for Love.We may well take precautions against both, but both, in their due course of time will invade our physical and emotional entities.Death and Love are different, but then again, similar. It becomes clear if you have faced both. If you have Lived both. Both are inevitable and invincible. They may be loved or despised, but cannot be ignored.
