The Divine design...

Somebody’s got to think out of the box…
Somebody’s got to ponder over things that everyone does not…
Somebody’s got to talk of the rhythm of silence…

There is nothing right or wrong about any poem, about any form of expression. Its just a reflection of the thought-flow in the brook of one’s mind…
It’s just the way the colors spurt across the canvass of one’s mind…
And the thoughts that flow cannot be right or wrong. No one is to be blamed.. no one can be blamed. It is all the way everyone is designed.
Just the way you and I are…
It’s His mighty creation to make the people the way they are…

Some are like you…who can’t grow out of conventionality…
Some, like me…surrounded by the barriers of conventionality and yet yearns to think beyond it… and mentally… A maverick…
Some like her… who has crossed all borders, all frontiers of conformism…who has drank the wine of unconventionality… and who expresses herself as a Maverick … in the true sense of its word…
She can’t be blamed… she must not be blamed… it’s just the way HE has designed her…
And HE has a purpose behind every stroke of His paintbrush on the canvass of life…
HE knows why each one is born and each one has taken this glorious life…

HE is the Creator…the Creator of all emotions that we know of… and that we don’t.
HE is the Father of all of the little children within us…
HE is the Mother, filled with the essence of love for every child… and who has space for every child in HIS arms…

No one is alone…No one is branded… No one is different…
Everyone is UNIQUE…
Every Design is UNIQUE…

All it takes from us is to appreciate the underlying beauty in all these uniqueness.
All it takes from us is to separate the threads of common colors from that of rare unseen colors from this Fabric HE weaved.
Then we realize the true meaning of the word BEAUTY…

Today the Kandy inspired me…
Tomorrow someone else will…
The world is so beautiful to fill us with so many inspirations in such short a lifetime…


I am so thankful to YOU, my beloved…For designing me the way YOU have…
I bow before YOU, my master… For all your mightiness and strength in showing me your power of creativity and for showing me what a freckle I am in this MIGHTY DESIGN… How thin a thread I am in this Fabric YOU have weaved…


I thank YOU for making me realize YOU within me… As my Inner Potential
I thank YOU for making me realize YOU around me… As my Inspiration

No curve of my lips, no salinity of my eyes can ever express my Gratitude to YOU…

Shouldn't we draw a line now???

Madhur Bhandarkar’s latest directorial, ‘Fashion’, primarily focuses on revealing the dark side of the fashion industry about which many youngsters aspiring to be a part of are unaware. The attempt was really appreciable as it is an eye-opener to the ignorant lot who believe that the industry is only glitz and glamour. Besides the many harsh realities showcased in the movie about this industry, it has been instrumental in displaying the adulteration of ethics in other professions. I was totally repulsed watching one particular scene in the film where the media (television and print) crosses its ethical limits to tarnish the reputation of a young model who happened to be involved in an unfortunate accident while walking the ramp in a show. Character assassination is a very common term when it concerns today’s media. Be it Aarushi Talwar or this ill-fated model. Besides this, some so-called “news” channels have simply lost track of what they ought to cover. A couple of months back it was...

Of Innocence and Children

When I used to sing Akhiyon ke jharokon se (not as a dedication to a 2 year old :) )to Ananya, my youngest cousin ; simply cause I loved the song and she probably loved the tune or (if I may hope) to listen to me sing, she would just rest her little head on my chest and look up at me... watch me sing. I would feel an utmost sense of contentment in life at that moment, seeing her innocent, loving eyes looking at me and loving me with no prejudices. Loving me, the way only a child can do and no one else can... not even me. I wish we all had that much of a clarity in thoughts, in actions and in love as much as a child has. I wish we all were not stripped off that innocence we had as children. I wish to be a child again... This is a dedication to the most beautiful child I've ever known... To the one who has already won so many hearts around her and is here to conquer many more... To Ananya...

The Postscript

I was on a call, walking across the dining room of their home, completely engrossed in the conversation with my mother. Their double pedestal 18th century French style 10-seater table lay cluttered with papers, documents, bills,etc. under the glimmering crystal chandelier. As I was walking and my finger carelessly running through rim of the table, my eyes caught the attention of two baronial envelopes with the recipients addressed on them. One read " To Daddy, From Son " , the other " To Son ". But what caught my attention was not this, but the postscript just a few inches below the latter note. It read, " P.S: Sorry for my poor handwriting ". Knowing the father in this context, and having read such a postscript, my mind wandered into deep thoughts about this man. It raced back to the memories of the last weekend of June when the blissful days with Her Holiness also brought with it new relationships that will be cherished for a lifetime. Here is a man of ...
