Six suspects

Six Suspects by Vikas Swarup

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


The storyline is quite fast-paced with clever plots which neatly unfolds into a screenplay-like structure hinting for a movie-making script. The gripping climax and unexpected nail-biting finale to the story sure calls for appreciation. At the end of the book, i felt satisfied and was able to connect myself to a few characters in the book.

On the whole, it is a good work. A drama about how fate can change our destiny and who we really are.

When the heart smiles :)

I've been quite happy enough with my last 6 months. Indeed it has been turbulent as ever.Nothing has been settled in my life,yet. Tend to get pointless sometimes - Life. I understood how in hard moments, a human relationship could do more good. But in the first place, if it has been mutual.

When family relationships has traits of friendship, it can never be lost.Even as relationships are turning out to be memoirs, found in long lost dusty photo albums.

And when people say grown ups never fall in love. That's more correct. Grown ups don't fall, they long for love.

reason to party

At this point of my life, 1 more yr to go get my coll life over.'N' wht next? i got so many things on my mind but no focus til now. Am on a prt time job as a copy writer for online contents. Its a promsiing start. 

In the coming week il be knwoing wht top of world looks like!!! Yeah. I'll be spending my first salary- this coming week. I got plans to get my favo ppl, small but useful stuffs. I never knew ppl would get proud n happy with me whn i start takin my first little but meaningful step in my life.

And am goin to cast my first vote, gosh!?! i'm a now responsible citizen with voting rights. Tat means a loads when some part of world still has no electoral rights to its people.

I whole-heartedly believe first things never loose their magic ever. Maybe a sentimental note, but think it over you gotta feel it too.Of course am no nostalgic i run along wit time. Still i cant overlook my fond childhood/ first time memories.

This year i hav had few losses n tough times yet it has been so good altogether with my new job now.Im so occupied n keeping deadlines, planning schedules - it simply rocks.

A dialogue

Every point in life we are bound to make decisions,choices and mistakes.I have nutured a deep conviction on self-realization.Its the only route in the pursuit of happiness,other alternatives such as worship,religion,meditation or yogic practices are techniques not the route.
It can happen when we consciously do simple things in our everyday life - watering plants in out backyard,bird watching, sitting by windowside in a bus or train,talking to innocent peasants on roadside or a lonely walk in the early morning. If we do everything with an open conscious,if we could be brave enough to talk to "our heart","our mind" it can bring so much peace and good health. It can make u recognize the human in yourself. If we can relive the childishness in us,once a while that's a blessing, a medicine to heal anything,everything even the subconscious syndromes.
Sparing time jus for our body won't do much if we neglect our soul. You will never know the magic unless you are sensible enough to see,feel and listen your soul. Talk to your hearts!!

Dasavatharam..the movie

Hey! i watched this movie 10 days back and i enjoyed the first 15mins n last 10 mins more but the whole experience, worth watching once.It shows the huge amount of work that has to go into it,to get it done.But, i heard critical review of the movie in country wide media as bizarre n things like so...
I jus think it is totally irrational to not acclaim the work.Of course every movie hav flaws,N tht shld be!Tht's more like real movie. And as usual "Ulaga Nayagan" has been lot technical,very experimental.But this time around im sure its successful venture too.
i hav worked on a short film tht havent yet been finished.So i could assume the magnitude that every new trial means so much to the creator..film making is an art,and it is life for people.Every aspect needs a applause like camera,set design,costumes,stunts,lightings,and above al the production itself.
Thank god for no duets and no much of romance cos it wasnt needed.
When item numbers,ill framed lyrics,hero worship move towards branding,corporatization y don ppl accept CG as part of film making.Manipulation is beautiful too whn done right.I jus found something closer to heart was missing,it gave much work to brains thn emotions.
But a good one too.It can make ppl relate to a novel plot.

Am right now having a mixed feeling about my internship results.Totally confused,cool-headed,anxious,what ifs and if nots and many more.
Some part of me always keeps reminding me,.i'm not who i am-i hav been trapped somewhr.

Im being the oppsite of what i really am.
This fact is disintegrating me.Everytime.i find no alts, no detours, only me.

For a long time every vacation is just another summer in the cycle of seasons.
It has missed the charm but havent lost it.
Now am at home,for getting set for an internship.in june,wishing to meet my childhood friend.

I feel i gotta write my blogs without correcting mistakes or re-edits.that would be more true.
Cos when i speak to my frnd i dont check my words or correct.
i feel the same whn i write this blog.
