The Mod[Y/I] Factor.

It would be incommensurate to put together a few words of solace for the loss occurred to the Mody’s. The heart and soul is outraged on imagining how the Mody’s would have been carrying this indelible Godhra incident alongside them for the past five years. They have spent these five incessant years in search of their teenaged son Azhar.
Any form of social amelioration or establishments of Foundations can be fruitful for Gujarat. Or infact, it can prove more beneficial for Narendrabhai’s political stranglehold in Gujarat. But will these sops be able to bring a smile back on the Mody’s? Will it be able to erase the indelible imprints left onto the Mody’s? But the Gujarat government would be nonchalant of these facts until the next elections arrive.
I watched the interview with the Mody’s on NDTV alongside the Parzania cast. It was a nostalgic moment for the entire nation to resurrect the horrific memories of 2002. But to keep the Mody’s alive by the fact that their son will be back someday, is like rubbing salt over their wounds. Helping them by bringing out their story to the world would certainly help. Playing the characters of the Mody’s in Parzania might require some prodigious talent. But has anybody ever tried to step into the Mody’s shoes? It’s been five long-lasting years and there is no sign of Azhar yet. Rather than having the family dreaming painfully about their son’s arrival, you should make them face the world and persuade them to adopt a realistic approach towards life. I salute the spirit of the Mody’s. Regardless of the torture they have experienced, they continue to fight all odds in search of their son. The courage they have shown is truly commendable. But it would require some miracle now for Azhar to be back. The entire nation hopes against all odds that it (The miracle) happens soon.

In search of Happiness!

Vyolet was one of the tiniest and innocent rats living in the jungles of Tabrris. Tabrris was a remote land inhabited by tiny creatures and they would all live in peace and harmony. It was a small jungle where all the animals, birds and insects cohabitated and shared their bliss and misery. Vyolet as a kid never went to school and was a joyous and funny looking animal who always wanted to live a nonchalant life, unconcerned about fame and prosperity. Vyolet would happily live upon the blueberries and the walnuts dismantled from the trees by the violent winds coming from the west. He, like all other animals living in Tabrris would never succumb to the desires of luxury and popularity and was jubilantly performing his jester acts and earning love and respect from the forest animals. Adjoining the jungles of Tabrris was the jungle of Tethis. The animals of Tabrris believed that the land of Tethis was jinxed and the residing creatures imbued immense arrogance, snobbism and did not share an...

The closest octagon

This entry is dedicated (sounds mourning, isn’t it); or rather written to honor my closest and dearest chums at Infy. Don’t exactly know where to begin from. But I would like to reincarnate the memories of Hyderabad. Remember the day when we got news of our postings after an extended training at Infosys Mysore. The fairytale starts with a bus ride from Mysore to Hyderabad. A fleet of approx 80 Finaclites, all filled with joy of clearing their compre’s; stepping into their professional careers. I was completely ignorant that a tenth of them would glue together so amazingly that their lives would be entwined in a manner that the threads would always mingle with the present; wherever future takes them and whatever the past impinges upon. The stay at the Woodbridge hotel culminated in moving into our new apartment. Three new folks from different regions, best buddies from college days. I was completely new to their company and not being a hosteller my entire life, brought in varying perspe...

Relativity!

This comes from the heart of India – Purani Delhi . Rajvir grew up amidst the hustle-bustle of the screeching Chandni Chowk , undoubtedly the most chaotic part of north India. Being the only son of the eldest brother amongst his father’s siblings, responsibilities and abiding by them had been an inherited trait for Rajvir. Rajvir’s life had been all about books, household chores and a seldom game of cricket in the inaccessible galis of Ballimaran . Rajvir’s father accumulated money for his only son to ensure he received the best education and a satisfying career. Rajvir went to an international school where his classmates would be offspring of the wealthiest and most influential personalities of Delhi and NCR. He always saw them happy, carefree and ignorant about the problems that existed in a poor man’s household. His family could barely pull out his tuition and he was proud of the sacrifices that his parents did for him. Wherein he saw his schoolmates being driven to school...
