Cry

Procrastination leads the daily life,
Delusional and narcissistic thinking,
Anguish of dispossession and exile.
To accept that I am alone is so difficult.

A feeling of monotonous, mechanical and boring life.
The wheels of fortune seems to be stuck somewhere in the traffic jam of daily routine .

Oration skill is over rated and the silence is maddening phase.
The jumble of thoughts, the search for a partner,
The anxiety and fear of loosing everything ;
Wanna be able to say anything,
Without any fear, embarrassment or hesitation.

A thankless job.
Efficiently constructing mythical monetary security
While bearing the immense loss of creativity, spark and spontaneity inside.

Dropping the addiction habits may help in creating nothingness.
Hanging past and fearing future are eating the present moment.

Difficult to eradicate hate from the heart;
A soul that has never been loosened by unrestricted love,
Prejudices grow there, firm as weeds among rocks.

My apologies if you find it all too boring!

Indian Cinema in Transition — Part II: The New Myopia of OTT, Algorithms, and Audience Fatigue

Image
This article continues from the earlier piece,  “ Cinema in Transition: Marketing Myopia, Technology, and the Shifting Cultural Core, ” which examined how Indian cinema moved through multiple waves of disruption — from single-screen decline and multiplex corporatization to OTT fragmentation, rising ticket prices, piracy, and changing audience behaviour. The first part Argued that cinema stakeholders often suffer from marketing myopia when they see themselves merely as producers, exhibitors, distributors, or platforms, rather than as part of a wider cultural and emotional experience economy.  This second part takes that argument forward by looking at Bollywood’s creative disconnect: its weakening relationship with real India, real emotions, rooted storytelling, music, actors, and audiences.  Why Bollywood Has Lost Touch with Real India and Real Emotions Bollywood films today feel uprooted from lived Indian realities, chasing generic global aesthetics over grounded cultur...

Book Review - The Blood Telegram: Nixon, Kissinger, and a Forgotten Genocide by Gary J. Bass

Image
The Blood Telegram: Nixon, Kissinger, and a Forgotten Genocide by Gary J. Bass | Goodreads ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommended Gary J. Bass’s The Blood Telegram tells the story of 1971 not merely as a war between India and Pakistan, but as a moral failure inside the highest offices of the United States government. It shows India standing as a democratic bulwark, bearing nearly millions of refugees while the Nixon administration ignored, minimized, and at times enabled the crisis. For American readers, this is an uncomfortable book. It challenges the familiar portrayal of Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger as hard-headed strategists guided by America’s larger interests. Bass reveals geopolitical calculation mixed with personal prejudice, institutional cowardice, and a willingness to disregard mass suffering. The crisis began with the Pakistani military establishment’s refusal to accept the democratic mandate delivered by the people of East Pakistan (now Bangladesh). It then attempted to solve a dem...

Kanpur Coaching Gurus

Image
Memories of coaching days at Kanpur are inseparable from me. I have done a separate post on Kanpur coaching mandi only. The most remembered image of my coaching days was the advertisement of Ankush Bhatia by Pran classes, and it was pasted on each wall of Kanpur. His photo was spread at distant corners of the city, showing All India Rank 51. Never seen any local marketing campaign like this. Sometimes, I recall the rush of students from one coaching center to another for seat capture, xerox copying of assignments, and 'out-of-course' study material. The JEE course was never completed on time in the Kanpur coaching mandi. At the end of March, the mad rush to complete the course began with various test series taking place simultaneously. I could not forget that pressure till now. I will never forgive Anish, Pankaj, and Vishnoi sir for combining their individual treats into 1 party for JEE-qualified students. For information on the pre-2000 AD days of coaching mandi, check this l...
