Hey....!!! I told you not to read. If you're reading further, it's on your own risk. Don't blame me for it.
At the outset, I wanna share some good news, my biggest dream is coming true - constructing a small house away from the maddening rush of the city, on a riverbank, making picture-perfect days and bewitching nights...!!!
I wanna live in this world like a lotus leaf, which grows in water, but is never moistened by water.
Well, I'm impressed with people who strike up an intelligent conversation. No mush, no slobbering. As a principle of life, I don't hobnob with the so-called "high-society crowd". I look at this world always through the eyes of needy. Yes, my heart bleeds for the under-privileged souls. Having said that it wouldn't be a surprise if I say I'm a big fan of ace director Madhur Bhandarkar. Lately I saw his film "Traffic Signal" and got taken aback...!!! What a narrative style...!!! He highlights the plight of helpless people on the streets - the kind of people we come across everyday at traffic lights, but we don't give a damn whereas he does give a DAMN..!!!
I'm addicted to dark films, watching films and writing reviews on blogs is my favourite past-time activity. To be a screenwriter is my (unfulfilled) dream. I prefer movies that reflect real life to ones that break into a song in the Swiss Alps every five minutes.
I don't think India can be a developed country by 2020 unless the standards of people living below BPL are raised. To me, stock market boom and GDP growth are CHIMERAS....!!!
I'm dead against killing animals, an out-and-out veggie, not by birth, but by choice. A PETA activist too.
I don't use charge cards, think it's a plastic trap. You rather invest in yourself.
If there's anything without which I can't live, it's gotta be BOOKS, quite a bookish :)
My Favourite books:
1. Memoirs of a Geisha
2. The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari
3. It's Not My Bike: My Journey Back to Life
4. Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People?
