Another Comeback!

Well, i am back again after what seems like decades...it is the month of July again and i am sitting here churning out episode after episode of a marathi daily, on saam tv..I am happy and telling myself that i am 150 episodes old and still going strong..:) Never thought i would be doing this and would reach this far, although there is still a long way to go..i am just an infant when it comes to screenplay writing! it is tough at times! It is interesting and creative too! it is amazing to see what you have conceived on tv! But the show biz is not one for the faint hearted or weak minded..It is a field for the fighters and survivors, this is what i have realized from whatever exposure i have got writing for tv..i have yet to find out if i am one of them, the go getters..Perhaps, by next blog, i might be able to come to a conclusion about that!

Come Back

Well, its been a very long time dearest blog since i exploited your blank white space with the umpteen words in my kitty. Normally i am so short on words after i finish my day's quota of articles that i am sapped of my typing energy. But today after a long time i got this adrenaline rush to write on my blog.. (i guess credit goes to my sister in law). Thus, coming back to happenings in my life, nothing much is happening in life, at the same time, there is something happening in the website office i work for everyday. Each day comes with a promise for a 'happening' at the workplace. Apart from that, one of my best buddies from the Pune Universty will hopefully be in town by tomorrow. I have great buddies in the office too and we make things bearable for each other. While we three (me and my other two buddies the office) stumble upon every single day, our trinity seems to be 'fevicol ka majbot jod hai tootega nahi', atleast as of now. Dunno where life will take us, bu

My Brother and my Best Buddy.. Are you watching us?

Seems ages since i have written anything on my blog. But i write so much these days that I am almost 'wordless' to write anything on my blog.. Nevertheless.. Its a Friday evening and the thought of a long weekend than usual is nothing but relaxing. Freaks me out to the core! The reason i thought i should write this blog is because Varun would have been 27 today. Wow! I think he would even have got married or surely would have found someone! His birthday, I dread it for the sheer fact that i wont be able to cope with the memories of my darling brother, whom i miss immeasurably. At the same time i am telling myself that it is time to revel in his fond memories - the innumerable summers spent together in our years of growing up to chatting on yahoo as tech savvy teenagers. He was the only one I could share almost anything I wanted to and felt, from telling him about my first crush to how i goofed up my maths exam. Now as an adult, every major event in my life [though there is har

Dial M for Maharashtrian?

Well, this is my first blog, so I guess, I would go with writing about what I saw latest. So here goes… I guess what with regional or to be more specific linguistic identities getting stronger and stronger and the political scenario being what it is, it was no wonder that a movie on the current political and social turmoil in Maharashtra would be made sooner or later. Well the reason I gave this long circuitous intro was because I recently saw this Marathi film ((being a true Maharashtrian that I am) “ Mi Shivaji Raje Bhosle Boltoy”. It was a total propaganda in favour of the ‘marathi manoos’ with the protagonist imagining himself getting some much needed advice from the ultimate icon of a Maharashtrain- Chattrapati Shivaji. The king prompts the protagonist (a middle class, god fearing and sincere Marathi fellow being sniggered at by those who are largely responsible for running Mumbai- the Gujratis, Marwadis, Sindhis and Punjabis) to stand up for himself. It is a very clever movie, wh
