La Poèsie

J’écrit avec un autre sentiment,
Parce que j’écrit en français!

Aprés un long temps,
Je pensait dans cette langue,

Quand j’ai retourné chez moi ce soir,
J’ai vu la mÊme choses que je vois toujours,

Mais, aujourd’hui c’était different!

J’ai voulu ecrire mes sentiments, mes penses,
Seulement parce que ça me fait trés heureux!

La couleur de le ciel avec les arbes,
La bleu avec la verte,

Les expressions sur les visages de les gens en générale,
Et je les vois, je pense, je réflechir and maintenant j’écrire!

Le temps passe lentement,
Comme il sait ce qu’il passe dans nous,

Pendant la commute j’ai un sourire,
Ma coeur était calme,

Et j’ai retourné chez moi,
Les 30 minutes ont passé comme un moment!

Un moment de passion, amour, action, refléction.....

(C’est plus façile d’écrire dans cette langue avec les mains! Il est trés difficile d’écrire français sur l’ordinateur!)

Translation (it's hard to get the texture of the words in english, because the flow is much different.. this isn't going to be a literal word-to-word translation, going to write with the flow of my feeling, which i felt then.. :) )

I write with a different feeling,
because i'm writing in french!

it's been a long time,
since i thought, felt in this language,

while i was on my way home today,
i saw / noticed the same things around me,

but, somehow i felt different!

i wanted to pen my thoughts down,
for no other reason, except that, that action was my motivation,

the colour of the sky against the trees,
the blue as a backdrop to the greens,

the expressions on the faces of the people in general,
and i looked at them, felt them, thought about them, and now, i write...

the time passes by slowly,
almost as if it knows what's going on inside me,

during the commute, i had a smile,
my heart was calm..

and then, within no time at all, i'm home,
those 30 minutes seemed like just a moment!

a moment of passion, love, actions, and reflections...

(it's easier to write in french on a paper, :) it is difficult to type the accents on the computer - the accents are hard to type at first.. but then by the end of the poem i'm used to typing the accents! the circumflex (Ê) is the most difficult! :) Ctlr + Shift + 6 + the vowel.. ! :) )

Shaitan

So thanks to some prodding from my friend Shri, I decided to go watch this movie today. I'm not upset I did, but I'm certainly not happy. It was sort of like watching Love, Sex aur Dhokha in a way. Graphic, very close to reality, and loud. The movie begins with Anurag Kashyap saying that it's a just a movie and that he doesn't support the use of drugs, drinking and driving and that it's a fictional story which is debatable because like Dev D he used an actual incident as one of the pivotal moments in the movie, in this case the moment is when 5 kids high on coke, drinks, and generally on life, speed across town and in one of the turns end up killing two people who were on a scooter. They were driving a Hummer. Anyways, to come back to the timeline of things, the movie begins by shocking you. I know I've watched a number of movies which involve sequences of kisses in front of my parents / relatives without flinching. But I would not be able to watch this movi

Crash Landing on You - Netflix K-Drama Review

I think all of us remember our first love, we remember what it felt like to have our hearts beat that much faster, the butterflies in our stomach, the obsessing about the words we spoke or didn't speak, and other million details that come along with it. Watching a romantic comedy is supposed to evoke some bit of those memories and just fill you up in this warm, fuzzy feeling that feels like a comforting bear hug (if you like hugs!). A while back I was reading this article about the dearth of good romantic comedies nowadays and it's true, when was the last good romantic comedy you saw? To me the evergreen You've Got Mail, Kate & Leopold, Notting Hill, Sleepless in Seattle are still the classics (yes, I think I crushed on Meg Ryan a lot!). In Hindi movies, I know this divides a lot of people, but I do genuinely think Sonam Kapoor has figured this out. I absolutely loved her Khoobsurat with Fawad Khan. I thought it was funny, contemporary and their chemistry was left me

Karthik Calling Karthik

After having been completely enamored and in love with the song "Uff Teri Adaa" I couldn't wait to watch the movie finally. The end emotion being, a decent watch, but could've been much better. The movie begins with a very stereotypical life of a guy (Farhaan) who's just not got anything going for him, from a landlord who's hounding him for money, to a boss who's blaming him for everything that goes wrong, to the hot co-worker (Deepika) who just doesn't know of his existence at all! The change that comes into his life, is a call, at 5 am each day, by a man who claims to be "Karthik" himself who guides him to becoming the man that he is. And voila, suddenly, the real "Karthik" begins to stand up for himself, asserts himself in front of his boss, and manages to strike conversation (a rather witty one) with Deepika too! Sitting in the audience, you literally feel like whistling and hooting when you see him walk down the corridor of his
