M-M-U-M-B-B-A-I

A city full of opportunities or a city full of dreams…some fulfilled and some unfulfilled.
A city that give one so much but takes a lot away from one self..
A place where one will find living souls in numbers but yet so lonely….
A city which is so much close to the heart but yet so distant…
A Small universe in itself that would drive anyone crazy….
A place where you find stars glittering on earth…
The only city in the country that is always wide awake and no sleep.
A rush that wherein one can easily be lost forever and never found.
A maddening crowd that always has a smile but eyes ever in search of something….
Eyes that are longing for unknown,the lost dreams,saddening and weary….
A city which is ever helpful in need like a true friend at the same time is a complete stranger….
A metropolitan wHere one has time for everything but still no time for oneself…..
This is the Mumbai that i saw and felt through my eyes and soul…
At such times is when i remember ….
YE DIL HAI MUSHKIL JEENA YEHAN…ZARA HATKE ZARA BACHAKE YE HAI MUMBAI MERI JAAN…
SALAAM MUMBAI…………….

WOMAN-THY NAME.....

Strong as a rock, emotions running deep as the ocean, patience of a saint, sweet as nectar, innocence that of a child, Mysterious like the universe, thoughtful and wise like a preacher, at the same time furious like the fire, anger like the volcano but above all someone who stands against all odds...This is no one but a WOMAN. As I was passing by I heard someone ask. Do we really need a special Day to celebrate for Women? I t can be taken in 2 ways. One—Maybe because she is special always OR in a note so positive form—Like Why do we need a special day for her? Don’t we already have so many days to celebrate?? Well, my take is...we have valentine’s day for people to express love –rather people who love each other, we have mother’s day, father’s day, May day so on and so forth. But, they are categorized for either a section of people OR for certain relationships.  I feel, Woman's day is a day that acknowledges the female gender, as a whole, irrespective of age, nation

1996-A Summer Afternoon

It was a summer afternoon. I was going through my college photographs, wishing those days were back and time would just stop there. How Nostalgic...The mere thought of it would bring an instant smile on my face. I was lost in thought when I recollected one of those adventurous trips that we had on one such summer afternoon. We friends would love to explore different places during our graduation.Those were fun filled days..no stress, no tension (except exams and project completion not to deny). Those were the days when we just wanted to be in the open...with nature...Do what we feel is right and just not bothered about the rest of the world. As said by someone time doesn't wait for anyone and does not come back. We set off to a nearby place at first.This is in the southern state of India with its mystic beauty and full of valleys and greenery.A sight that would take any one's breath away...On the way back..we found a fishery.They would breed fish there.We thought of explo
