पर्दे पर जब शाहरुख खान राज के और हृतिक अल्ताफ़ के किरदार में आते हैं,कभी सोचा है कि वो हमें इतना क्यों भाते हैं?शायद इसलिए कि वें उन ३ घंटों में सिर्फ अपना किरदार निभाते हैं,और फिर अपनी निजी जिंदगी में लौट जाते हैं। “हम सब रंगमंच की कठपुतली हैं” ऐसा हम सभी ने सुना…

डरना नहीं है!
सुनो दोस्तों एक बात कहनी थी, उसके बारे में जो एक दिन आया,और जिसने सारे किस्से-कहानियों के परे एक बात सिखाई है,के डरना नहीं है..लेकिन घर से बाहर निकलकर उसका सामना करना नहीं है। हर दिन मानो एक नया तूफान था।पढ़ाई-लिखाई वालों के इम्तहान,तो दफ्तर में क्या होगा इसका ना हमें अनुमान था।हमेशा हमसे हर…

A Matter of Retention!
It was a casual Saturday afternoon and Vighnesh, like he has been doing since school days, was lying on the couch at Sujeet’s place.

Peace with the Past…
2.39 AM: My Phone Beeped. “It’s called off”, Rupali’s message read. Being a seasoned flop-man at giving appropriate responses, I chose to respond later.

Parallel Countries
“Yes, my cousin was caught running with her boyfriend-turned-husband after they secretly got married and were shot by her own family and close relatives!” These or some similar words had echoed in my ears and the scene had played and re-played in my mind several times since I had reached back to Mumbai at 4…
एक सीख की बरसात…
सीख और तालीम पाने बचपन से स्कूल कॉलेज जाता रहा,लेकिन कितना कुछ तो इस शहर की बरसात ने चंद घंटों में ही सिखा दिया। जोखिम में डाल दे ऐसी बारिश हो रही थी,और कुछ लोग अपनी छत को छोड़कर,छातों में छिपकर घर से बाहर निकल रहे थे।वही छत, जिसमें सुकून से जीने के लिए,वें हर…
Between a “Hi” and a “Good Bye”
The tale starts with a simple “Hi…”And soon we started sharing life’s every pie.Having each other around itself made us breathe a sigh…We were so close and I still don’t know why… This was the time when for many, I was the apple of their eye…For each other we lived,And for each other, we could…
