Cherish the relations..
Gully Boy–Bahot hard hai bhai!
Everyone has the right to dream! The socially and economically challenged, girls, people from every caste and creed! Its not easy to break the stereotypes, the age-old shackles and mindset, but “daring hona chahiye!” Often we are the victims of our own mindset and inhibitions. Time to break it! The youth can do that!
Take a bow Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt! You guys can mold into any character. The ensemble cast has also really performed well. For people who don’t understand Mumbaiya lingo or rap culture, it might be a letdown but the movie is more than that! Zoya Akhtar took a risk in making a film of completely different genre and she has done a good job. For someone who has lived a privileged life to get into the life of Dharavi is not easy.
Let’s appreciate the filmmakers and the actors for trying to do something different. Achche filmon ka time aa gaya! Bahot hard hai bhai!

The Warm Embrace
When she first came here, it was like a big big change. A girl who had grown up and lived in small towns wasn’t sure if she could fit the bill. It was huge, unnerving, seemingly aloof. She thought it was would never accept her. After all, she seemed to be a misfit.
But in just a matter of few months her fears vanished. She was proven wrong. The city of dreams had welcomed her with open arms. Mumbai was her home now. That girl was me. Since February 2002 Mumbai is my home. People call it a ruthless city. Yes..its a city where there are lots of problems. It is overpopulated, roads are congested, infrastructure is bad, yet there is “something” about this city which makes people fall in love with it so much that they don’t want to leave it.
I fell in love with Mumbai. Despite its flaws, this city gave me a freedom that I hadn’t experienced in the safe confines of the small towns. This city did not judge me. I could be me, wear what I wished, roam around safely alone at unearthly hours. Marine Drive, Bandra-Worli Sea link, the sea, the roads, the local trains, the wada pavs, the local lingo, the air are all a part of my system now. This city gave me an identity. I learnt how to project myself, how to be bindaas..
Mumbai embraced me in its warm hug. The city which seemed aloof, vast and scary is the one which is my home now; its like my heartbeat now.
Once just Mumbai city is now an emotion; its aamchi Mumbai, its my love..
Snoring!
A world without girls
‘This post is a part of Write Over the Weekend, an initiative for Indian Bloggers by BlogAdda.’
How would the country and world be if there were no girls?
Could the existence of us be there if not for those girls?
No mothers, sisters, wives, aunts, friends, strong women around
Would the world be so much fun if all the chatter wasn’t around?
Everybody wants their progeny to grow
Without the girls it would not happen, let me tell you if you didn’t know!
Its high time the country and world should honor the existence of a daughter
How I wish some heartless would stop their slaughter
Should the daughters cease to take birth?
That would definitely mean slow death of this beautiful earth.
