Remember That...!


Interestingly, this time, it wasn’t the lack of zing thing to write or busy working. There were so many thoughts and flickering ideas buzzing my mind for too long time. Honestly, I was in a little dilemma to write on the precise thought.

Too long time, isn’t it? Huh! Anyway, let me not scribble down exclamations any further. Of late, I am being reminded on the good ol’ days I’ve had in my life. Too often! May be it is a heads up for realigning things around my life.

Yes friends, the good ol’ days were not just about gulping few drinks and hopping around places with besties, rather it was all about sharing few good laughs, making few stirring memories. Now, when I track back all those, it is upsetting to know that they are all broken boulevards.

Friendly interactions have been replaced with business appointments, free spirited conversations have now become planned agenda discussions, and what more, and walking into your friends’ house without any prior notice is almost a passé.

The heartfelt adjectives and gaalis amongst friends have lost their glory. A simple “Takla” or “Fattu” or whatever, each of it had immense love and fondness expressing for each other, unlike now, where such adjectives have been replaced with ego satisfiers and stress-busters. Damn this life!

I remember having countless conversations’ over numerous cups of ‘Irani Chai’. So many theories and action plans developed along with the friendships. Not just these, the lively smiles and happy minds were always together, unlike now. Truly, I am neither finding such tasty chai nor such people who were always there together, for each other.

The impromptu vacations and aimless long drives jettisoning the worries have all become a story and are the best treasures we could preserve.  With prolonging hours of conversations while seeing off friends or carrying off our drunk friends to our homes safely, everything had a touch of friendship and a dash of love for each other. These memories not just rejuvenate me but also leave a question, ‘Why not now?’
Life over the years has taken a different drift where all these moments have become history and probably forced me to talk nostalgia.

I seldom pass by the streets I grew up only to recollect those good moments of my life and reminisce the glorious days. Truly, my tears roll down only to remind me that it is all antiquity now!

With irrational commitments and targets we set, which are purely out of societal influence, life has become too complex these days. I wish I come back to the time with all my friends around, with resonating laughs and pulsating moments. Amen!

Hey Its a New Post (HAMSA)

Hello readers! Been really really long time I posted something here. I wasn’t draining out of ideas to write, but wanted to share something that is actually exciting. Actually, I been doing something that is absolutely exciting, at least to me! So without further delays I am posting my first episode of the writing. Few days ago, I was spending a large amount of quiet time thinking about a plot line and was thrilled with the overall idea. The idea, the concept, the setting of the plot and the development of the plot, everything was the effort of my wife and mine (Thank God! For blessing us with some writing abilities). So while working on this idea, I was wondering if I could share this as a Blog Episodes or rather Blogisodes . Does this word even exist? If not let me coin it! Your feedback will give us and also HAMSA an extremely enthusiastic motivation to unfold the story further. Please do not hesitate to express your thoughts. Note: The plot, the setting, the developme...

Hyderabad – We Miss You

Back then, when I was in school, I remember my teachers saying Earth is also a planet and I used to be kicked about the fact, God! I am living in one of those planets. As time passed by and once again I tried to reckon those classes, I began wondering, “Is this called the Planet Earth?” My doubt may raise many eyebrows, thinking what this zygote is talking about? My dear readers just move your heads a little away from your PCs (Not Priyanka Chopra, lusty minds!), and see the world around. I am sure there would be humpty questions lingering in the mind as to what are we doing and where is the road ahead? All of us are in this rat race of making a survival and ensure a comfortable living, although the process of attaining comfortable living is definitely not comfortable. Just think of the quantum of resources we are wasting and also the terrifying amounts of toxins we are adding to the environment. Take the case of Hyderabad, the city where I live and touch wood, I am so very pro...
