A Tangled Yarn of Thoughts Being Unravelled…
The first thing that strikes you about this movie is that Indian film makers are more than capable of churning out good flicks without the whole song and dance routine that seems to encapsulate Bollywood movies as a genre. Badla (Revenge) is a prime example of that. An adaption of the Spanish movie The Invisible... Continue Reading →
In the last couple of years my reading material has been fairly unchanging. It's been the likes of John Sandford (love his work), Carl Hiaasen (cannot get enough of it) and some new authors I came across courtesy the Kindle store. Amongst them Jana DeLeon stood out because while her work wasn't "hardcore literature" it wasn't silly... Continue Reading →
If there was a movie which could have had 'OTT' as a catch phrase it would be this one. Or it could have the slightly longer but also accurate one of 'The Movie Where Rohit Shetty Didn't Blow A Car Up'. Whatever be the case, Simmba is a movie that is unadulterated entertainment. The kind... Continue Reading →
TO loves to dance. He does his own thang and is unabashed about it while at home or in any place he feels comfortable. He's lithe, has expressive eyes (which he widens mainly for more effect) and he loves to twirl, swirl and get his groove on. Any song he likes becomes our party track... Continue Reading →
Red reads "interesting" things. He reads fiction, non-fiction and plenty of things that 'thinking' people seek out. Am far more pedestrian and I think I know the answer to that as well...let me just pull up my virtual couch as I hark back to my childhood for the insight. When I was in 5th grade,...

I've been lazing in bed all day. A semi-cold grounded me. But as always, laziness plays a far more potent role than I ever give credit to. 2018 was a year of massive highs and lows. Saying goodbye for good isn't ever easy. It's harder still when it's out of the blue and leaves you... Continue Reading →
It's not your usual, run-of-the-mill number is it? 418? But it's been 418 blog posts since that fateful day back in October 2013 when I sat down to test drive WordPress for my work-related blogs and found that it was actually quite fun and easy to blog here. Since then it's seen some periods of... Continue Reading →
TO's school puts together a pretty good show for their annual day. The stage, the lighting, the whole shebang is something I look forward to each year. And it's actually rather superlative given that they have to co-ordinate with kids ranging from kindergartners to 5th graders. This year's extravaganza was their rendition of the Pied...

As a reward for a decent first term report card TO was given the permission to watch The Meg. It's a PG-13 movie for what reason I know not, but ostensibly to ward off screams from kids. That the screams maybe of joy seems to have escaped the censors. Anyhoo, the brat turned into a proper... Continue Reading →
In the paraphrased words of Dolly Parton- I stumbled out of bed and tumbled to the kitchen and to pour my self a cup of salvation...and stopped still. There was a small rat on my dining table!! I was still sleepy and did not have my wits about me so I swayed in one place... Continue Reading →
