RIP Alan Rickman



Seldom has it been that a person has had such a profound influence on the lives of not one or two but an entire generation of human beings.

"Well, it may have escaped your notice, but life isn't fair"

A cherished and profound British theatre actor, Alan redefined acting for a mysterious character, his portrayal of unconditional love searing through the strands of time and lasting for eternity is something magical. To emulate the same on film in the manner it was done is something for which I have no words.

He was a part of Harry Potter, a series that touched me and a whole generation in such a way that it is embedded forever in our hearts. And Alan played the role so well, I don't think it was possible for anyone else in this world to do it Justice the same way he did.

When I'm 80 years old and sitting in my rocking chair, I'll be reading Harry Potter. And my family will say to me, 'After all this time?' And I will say, 'Always.'

 This shall hold true for all of us.

Thank you Alan for your wonderful contribution to this world.

You shall always be there in our hearts and souls.

Rest In Peace.

From Uday and the millions of hearts where you thrive.

The TCS conundrum

Being in the final year of engineering I could not get more pissed off as I hear people talking about jobs almost 24x7 around me. Like seriously? We live in a culture in which hapiness in getting a job is so profound that everything else including but not limited to Entrepreneurship sounds meagre. Son (from a PCO or outside the room) : Hello Mom: Hello, haan beta... Kya hua? Son: Maa, TCS! Mom: Kya? (in shock) Son: Haan maan, TCS mein job mil gaya! Mom: Mera bachha! Jaldi aa gharpe (in tears) Like, seriously? This is the state of most of the youth(engineering) in India who get jobs in various MNC's. Those who don't, land up teaching or preparing for some damn kind of entrance exam (even I am doing so, but its justified).  Imagining an entrepreneur is just not possible! Have a look: Son (from anywhere): Hello Mom: Hello, haan beta... kidhar hai? Son: Maan office mein hoon, aaj 100th customer mila! Bohot jald.... (mom interrupts) Mom: Haan acha the...

The Question, the answer...

Heavenly Father,  What did You think?  What did You perceive?  The silence foregone?  Starlight peeking!  I gaze up at the Heavens,  wonder at Thy creation! I gaze inside,  wonder of Thy restrictions!  All quest; All die.  All strive; All fail.  One simple truth,  Clear as the dew,  Cool as the glacier.  He is me, and I am Him.  You are me, and I am You.  Separated by realms,  one for Eternity.  Love--the question.  Love--the answer.

The Rise

' Ae babu, aur kitna time lagega ?' shouted the waiter, asking him how much time will it take? It was almost 8pm and the Irani cafe was about to close. Robert was sitting and staring at the tea for way too long now. The fan made its slow creaky noise and the yellow mildly-dim lights added to the ambience. Coming to Bombay was one of his best decisions so far, he fell in love with the city the moment he saw it. The loud noise, the rush, the old ambience of the British era buildings, his favourite Irani Cafe and a lot of other things. Two months seemed like a lifetime for him and he was enjoying every moment, one of the reasons being that he spent most of his life in a small town in England, far from the busy city life. 'Bas do minute!' , he shouted back indicating that he shall leave in a couple of minutes. He quickly gulped down his tea, took his mawa cake and left for his house. Robert had taken up an internship at an NGO in Bombay. He had just graduated in Econom...
