one of the few people who’s even crazier about movies; and collecting them, than i am - his movie collection is legend. is also one of the few who will not follow the beaten track… and will do as he wants.

a dude, albeit a dude who could always come up with a way of relieving the situation… no matter what. great fun to have around; especially as he loves to put his foot in his mouth, and laugh about it.

no words. piracy crap shown for what it is. and according to the “figures” released, the world economy will collapse very soon.

cooooooooool.

when i heard that reservations are official, the feeling of deja vu; that feeling of doom hit me.

but then i figured that it doesn’t really matter… protests will happen, hunger strikes and everything; and eventually it’ll all die down.time heals; i think. or makes you apathetic and cynical.
thats how it works. all over the bloody planet.

not.

IIT-bombay students, people i know, are on hunger strikes. doctors are still on strike. medical students in delhi are protesting actively, preventing interviews; making themselves heard. rallies. door-to-door canvassing. everything possible.
the country is not giving up.

and even as i type this, goosebumps prickle, spirits rise - i want to be there, i want to strike, to protest; to make myself heard.

a spirit that used to exist in india, that fuelled a revolution 50 years ago has received a shot of adrenalin. i thought indians have become apathetic, given up on a system that has been systematically taken apart; away from its original ideas - that does not work anymore.
apparently not.

inquilab is back.

inquilab zindabad.

was responsible for introducing me to maclean and a new level of reading. had the brains and the potential to use it; and showed it… but for all the time together in school; we dropped out of touch soon after.

known to me only as ’suvarna’; we met when he just decided to help out in some events i was organizing. rarely remembered by the crowd though, he’s the background person that  i couldn’t do without. and was always there.
