Ode to The Deaf

Listen! You non-existing GOD,
I have broken the slumber prison
I don’t care about your blessings and your curse
I am the maker of evens and odds.

Neither Satan nor Iblis,
I am a man, hungry on the posh streets,
Ready to challenge your magical tricks
With the blades of logical bricks
You hid the sun from clutches of mine,
You hid the rice and offered me raw flesh,
You dried the water I wanted to drink.
You kicked me out and called me swine.

Listen! You non-existing GOD,
I’ve been sharing the food from thieves and burglars,
Drinking the holy water of gutter,
Gathered the dare from the road-side prostitutes
To slain the darkness of ignorance,
And I created my own SUN.

Keeping those moons and stars for you to pray,
I have got a pen to kill and eat my prey.

As I have created my own sun.

FRIENDS FOREVER ???

Such a cliché title, you might be thinking and my blog must have already been judged by you. But I’m guessing the question mark must have intrigued your curiosity. To be honest I was looking forward to this long weekend to write about a few things which were there on my mind from a long time and this topic was not at all in the list. But today when I sat to hit the keys on my laptop I realized it’s ‘Friendship Day’ eve and suddenly there was a hurricane of thoughts in my mind struggling to burst. I have met many people in my life, some have no parents, some no siblings, some have no aunts-uncles and some no relatives but I have not met a single person till date without a friend. Even the most narcissist person like Dr. House has the  most  humble friend like Wilson. So what makes this relationship so incomparable and pure? I think a simple fact that we get to choose it. In childhood being someone’s friend or having a friend was a big deal. You wouldn’t call anyone your f...

10 Bollywood Movies You Must Watch With Your Family While Social Distancing

I remember my childhood days when every weekend my entire joint family would gather to enjoy a Bollywood movie on Doordharshan. We would laugh, cry and make predictions about what would happen next. During fight scenes, we would pray that the hero should give nice punches to the villain and then we kids would celebrate his victory by dancing without music. Those memories are still very fresh in my mind. Today when the entire world is shutting down and people are social distancing, self-quarantining themselves, this can also be seen as a time to come closer to our families and make each moment lighter and memorable While many would prefer to watch web series or movies on Netflix or Amazon Prime during this quarantine period, individually on their mobiles, I would prefer to watch some light-hearted family movies along with my entire family, from 8 year old to 80 year old, while relishing tea and hot pakodas. The ten films I’ve decided to re-watch with my family are: ...

Brrooom! Brrooom!

Year 2000. I was free for almost a year. I had accepted it but for my family, it was difficult to accept that an academically excellent boy like me would fail in the Higher Secondary Board Examination, and especially after scoring a first-class in Grade 10 Board Exams. I knew I would fail. As soon as I took admission in the Science stream, I realized that it wasn't my cup of tea. When the board results were declared, my father came from his office carrying a box of sweets as he was confident of my result. That box remained unopened for many days. "We cannot bear more for your education now. You have to work your way out for it now," very humbly my father told me. I planned to reappear for the exams. So, I was left with a lot of free time.  Now, I no more dreamt of becoming a doctor. Those days, software courses were in demand, and I was more interested in them, and especially in graphic and animation. On my bicycle, I went to many esteemed institutes to find i...
