Mourning..

-
Going to be part of history..A snapshot just hours before the last breath of Alfa..At point blank range possible for onlookers..the place resembles that of a cemetery..Tears and sorrow filled  the air...Sad plight of the home sweet home-the  pride of occupants once upon a time...Of course, a deserving hang till death for a culprit..But then...  Is he and his friends are  the only ones found  guilty?!!...Alas!..All are supposed to be equal before law...but some are more equal...No wonder the woman of justice is blindfolded with a black ribbon....
RIP Alfa & friends🙏

Marakkar: Lion of the Arabian Sea

Like,  Dislike or Something in between...  Much affected by media hype and quench for big movie experience in the wide screen, triggered to occupy slots in the first day itself. The anticipation was such that anything ordinary wouldn't quench the thirst...  The only enthusiasm in the first half an hour is to observe Pranav Mohanlal, to see if we have a superstar in the making, as a successor to his father...  Director Priyadarsan in a naive attempt to narrate the historical aspects in its accuracy, with hive of activity, overlooked the entertainment aspect altogether, which is very unlikely of him as he is well known for some of the all time hits...  Many of the fights scenes  left the audience in dilemma to what's happening as the darkness and speed of the reel were overwhelming...Even two songs played in short interlude posed as if they were superimposed and out of place. In an act to incorporate known actors, many came out of wood work! ...

CAA- Citizenship (Amendment) Act 2019.. as simple as that..   Let's think of a place affected by drought...People suffer for a  living(refugees from Bangladesh, pak, Afghanistan, Srilanka, Nepal, Bhutan..etc ) and are in search of safe drinking water ( or rather breathing space)..   They heard of a nearby  house (india) where there is a well with unfailing water supply...They queued up for water.The number increased day by day..The owner of the house had  a condition that they should fill in water in the pots provided by him..(an eligible document for NRC- National register for citizenship)..   Years went by ..People of this joint family started worrying that they may run short of water and culture of them would be ruined by the continuing  presence of outsiders ...Then they persuaded the head of the family,  to allow those who have been taking water from so and so date, need only to be permitted...(Assam accord 1985 and and the promise made in th...

Outgrowing God..

Outgrowing God by Richard Dawkins www.penguin.co.uk A work with lot of insight and exploration...The book calls for a thorough reading..It questions many stereotypes..A tolerant reader would find it intriguing... Starting from inherent contradictions in the holy books and the fading away of ancient gods with time, Dawkins establishes his atheist view with precision..backed by scientific evidence he proves his point..'Natural selection' of Darwin occupies a prominent place in the book to overthrow the popular perception of a divine creator.. Even an ardent believer will be bewildered to see the convincing interpretations doubting the very existence of God.. He rightly says about the impact of 'childhood indoctrination' an hindrance for unshackling of imprisoned religious belief injected from birth.. In the second part, expatiation on evolution may look as if he missed a trick  in an attempt to clarify too much but then that fit for the purpose to suff...
