Poem: Truth is sorry for being born, and slightly judgemental for having the spine. A silent sufferer too in the crowd while honesty weeps beside till dawn. The era of sky-high morals has left the building.
Truth is sorry for being born,
And slightly judgmental for having the spine.
A silent sufferer too in crowd,
While honesty weeps beside till dawn.
The era of sky-high morals,
Has left the building.
Silly smiles are in town.
Prejudice too just followed suit.
If you are a ruthless selfish, you’re welcome.
If you are a spineless serpent,
You are a sweetheart.
You will feel alone in your mighty heart,
Until you regret for having one.
You will walk the desert alone and thirsty,
Choking for an ounce of fresh perspective,
And gasping for opinions, not so biased,
Unless you carry a bunch of unpopular tales.
You will be pecked for good habits.
And sush-ed for right choices.
Good is the mobster,
Right is just so wrong.
Carelessness is cool,
And I can’t stress this enough.
Being heedful just signs you off.
Simple is labelled an outlaw,
And sensible is a complicated fool.
Caring is stale, an outdated stinker,
Making sense is a total looser.
Being right is an absolute redundancy.
Buried are the core values,
Six feet below the earth.
Cremated are the manners,
Common sense is next in line.
Truth is aghast at plastic confidence,
And wide-eyed at superfluous prides.
Its quiet mate called humble is missing since many summers,
While the heart of acceptance,
Stays aloof, in shivering winters.
Innocence suffers in the hands,
Of a skilled steerer.
A d vegan, an honest target at butchers,
wonders its blunder.
Simplicity is a borderline disorder.
Your heart will be pinned to wall,
And picked with darts,
If you possess the demons,
of morals unsuitable in filthy metros.

Who are these people who decide how a married woman should pose? Women do have a life and career outside their marriages!
Last week, a picture kept popping up on my FB feed, of a man and a woman standing close. I didn’t pay much attention, they looked like any other celebrity couple.
It was when I accidentally saw a derogatory term about the woman as the title of a post, that I read.
The woman in the pic was Dhanashree Verma, a Youtuber, choreographer, Jhalak Dikhla Ja participant and wife of cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal. The man was another choreographer, Pratik Utekar.
The pursuit of true happiness and owning your true identity - things that probably are most important for humans. Laapataa Ladies has it all.
This well written satire goes as deep inside as it seems on the surface. While uncovering the deep-rooted traditions and superstitions of traditional India on the face of it, this story of lost women is actually also a story of finding oneself. Not only for the “lost ladies” but for a lot of other characters of the movie.
Be it by getting reminded of the childhood self, or of the dreams seen as a child or via learning & unlearning, or even questioning some of the self-beliefs when shown the mirror, or tapping on the hidden goodness, each major character of the film ends up finding self.
Well what can be a bigger accomplishment than this. A very powerful and intelligently written story showing the world that the dark and the bright stays together, it co exists.
