thinking of the time i cared about politics enough to pick a fight everywhere and write long threads and articles.
now if you start one, i'll pretend I know nothing. i say nothing and simply walk out.
nothing pains me more than this. wonder how many are on the same boat.
last month a right wing uncle asked me to tell three lines on the "history" of india
he was ready to prove that the younger generation knows nothing
i said i don't know. he was v irritated that he couldn't prove his point.
i thought about all the books lying on my bookshelf
if you are in bangalore this sunday afternoon and looking for a fun date idea (solo, friend, situationship or delusionship), i have a proposition 👀

i thought about the time i wanted to write stuff that mattered
and the time i couldn't believe that my v political op piece was published in a leading publication. i was 19.
and the time i decided that i didn't have it in me to go through hell.
i don't know seems right now.
this was probably one of the most remarkable TV scenes for me in a long time.
the buildup to this over two seasons. the character development. the choice of song. felt so many emotions.
working from this cafe and the man next to me legit said "i would like to schedule some time for bakchodi, what time are you available for it? between 4-6pm?"

In college I used to give tuition to lil kids in my apartment for some extra money. Today, one of the students came to wish me on teacher's day. Said I was one of the best teachers she had and gave me a chotu dairy milk. My heart😭😭😭
Still thinking about last night when I was at a random table eating burger at a music fest in Pune when two strangers gave me a card. The next 5 mins we (read: I) talked about the copy, placement of QR code and CTA. Only to realise we have worked at the same tech company in blr

In awe of the brilliant writing of Laapataa Ladies.
Political and societal satire, great comic timing, catchy silly songs, engaging suspense, beautifully crafted characters - all of this without being preachy!
I haven't liked a Bollywood movie so much since Stree

I spent a month living in the middle of nowhere (literally) in Kanpur, interning with Prof. HC Verma. Yes, the monkey pulley question guy.
It was hands down the weirdest month of my life. There I was eating poha and watching TMKOC with one of the greatest minds
Me at 19

Was in a (what could have been a terrible) car crash, called
@vthemehra1
to tell him I'm alive.
Only to hear him say - bro you're a cockroach, you won't die that easily. He then goes on to tell all that's happening in his life.
And just like that, life was normal again.
8/To say we went through a rollercoaster of emotions would be an understatement
But it's beautiful how sometimes shared misery brings out the best in people. At the end of the day, we are all the same just living different versions of life.
The point of this thread is just that
