Short Story:: It NeVer HaPpeNed

Short Story: It NeVer HaPpeNed!! "Is it possible that you get extra mean to me on purpose?", asked Suvarchala. Yogi is in his own world, suggesting that he likes to be more happy in his thought bubble than to answer her. The demon in Suvarchala got angered by his cold response and started to take her into the space, not even she wishes to be a habitant off. There is a disbelief in her eyes that his Yogi is pushing her so much. He is leaving her no option but to break the promise and his back too. She can be Bane for her Dark Knight. And he can her Joker! Such is their relationship. They always find ways to bend the rules of relationship and go ahead to any lengths to keep the spice going. Yogi can be that naughty kid, who just loves to annoy and Suvarchala can be his bunny. Falling for his tricks and failing in her resolve not to. Well, now the dam is ready to explode. Yogi needs protection otherwise he could be that one lone survivor of a theft that just left him wi...

Short Story: Symphony of Love..

Symphony of Love ... As Rangan Bharat passed by the theatre, he saw an young woman trying to pacing from right to left. He observed her and she is pacing in a pattern. As he saw her move, he thought about the rhythm, that is going on in his head from quite some time. The pattern is a perfect fit and he got his tune set in the rhythm pattern. He immediately ran to his car and rushed to his composing fheatre. Wrote down all the beats in the form of notations and as his hands started to write them, we are able to lose ourselves into the pleasing flute to roaring Veena. A master in Carnatic music, he mixed three ragas to achieve the composition. By the time, he completed writing, he is dann excited thinking about the score and his phone rang loud bringing into the world of non-sense. Yes, his life doesn't make any sense to him if it is not connected to music. He unwillingly answered the phone and it is Raksha Rangan, his wife. Raksha: "Where are you? Do you know what time...

Short Story:: Journey Back to the Mother's Womb!

          Journey Back to the Mother's Womb!   I can't go back to being the person I was yesterday and I dislike and disown myself, Today! What should I be then? What can I be? These questions probe through my heart day in and day out every day! How do I get rid of them? What should I do?  Radha loves me for what I am! But can she accept what I did to save my job? Yes, it is scandalous to dvelve into the details, somehow I did not feel the necessity to apologise, Am I not capable or is it my male chauvinistic ego that stops me?

My View/ Observations:: Dangal - Wrestle the odds

DANGAL - Wrestle the odds This year has been a mixed bag all together with several films being great like Pink and rest of them being disposable like Great Grand Masti. But every year you are in search of a film that makes you go gaga over the time it took for the makers to assemble it. The sheer brilliance that went into making a movie of such scale and perfection. For me each and every movie no matter what is the story needs such an effort and dedication from the makers whose ultimate goal lies in box office performance. Not judging their intentions but you do need some sort of reliability from the makers when you're investing your valuable time and money for almost 3 to 4 hours in travel and theatre for the sake of entertainment. This year I found my worth for every penny theatrical experience in DANGAL! Right from the word go, movie sucks you into its world and never lets you wander off. It never demands you to invest your intellectual energy at the same time it...

My Views/ Observations ::Befikre - Plastic Glory - My view!

Befikre - Plastic Glory!! When you watch a movie you expect few things looking at the past and hoping for a pleasant present. While walking into an Adi Chopra film, one would expect the director of romantic movies like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Mohabbatein and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi to deliver if not a classic like DDLJ, at least a decent film with strong romance. Here the director falters big time with wafer thin plot line trying to make it edgy racy and new age.  Imtiaz Ali is a one of kind maker in India. His thoughts and scripting abilities are entirely on a different pedestal and he doesn't make a glaring mistake like casting two actors who after a point seem to repeat their actions and do nothing but look PLASTIC. In one word, you can describe Befikre as the depiction of Plastic emotions felt more plastically with an elastic screenplay that keeps on dragging for a bit and then some more, finally, delivering one big elastic fist pump that slaps you hard for walk...

My Observations:: Dear Zindagi - Past - Present - Future!

Dear Zindagi - Past - Present - Future!  I always write my views as Observations as I do not really want to impose myself on viewers of a film with my ramblings. Not that I can but this is just a humble way to remind you that whatever you read here is the Blog runners opinion but not something written on wall and you should take it with a pinch of salt.  I am a fan of good cinema. For every film I enter the theatre with a belief that this film will be the greatest I am ever going to watch. Even the trailers may suggest otherwise, I do not really judge the book by its cover rather I wait to peel the content, embrace the feel a maker wants to deliver and then form my opinion about it. A story being said in silences and conversations, that is Dear Zindagi for you in a nutshell.  It is not trying to be overly smart, not trying to make you like its characters by hook or crook. It just keeps flowing on screen asking you to embrace the life unfolding in front of ...

Recommendations:: 15 Telugu Classics that you should watch!

First Word: There are many movies in Telugu that showcase talent of the makers, actors and the writers, individually and collectively. The films that have collective excellence almost always end up being classics.. Here are some of those, to be precise 15, of those classics, where everything fell into place and any movie fan or telugu film lover should watch before they die.   Seetha Kalyanam:  Seetha Kalyanam was directed by artistic and creative director, Bapu, many moons ago. The film majorly has excellence in visual effects created by Ishan Arya, using the techniques available those times. The film is a part of course work at the British Film Institute. Director Bapu himself took some classes about the movie.  Geetanjali:    Nagarjuna and Mani Ratnam's Geethanjali is a classic love tale, and an innovative film for it's theme and visual story telling. The train scene between Nag and Girija is still popular and spoofed in many love f...
