Partner-in-crime, bhai (brother), yaar (friend); I’m pretty sure these terms remind you of someone. That someone may be one person, or a group of people, that makes you feel at home in this strange world. Those are the people that are your family away from your family. They are the people for whom ‘I’ll be there for you’ was composed in the first place; you … Continue reading Friendship Day ’22 | Jatin
Is giving up bad? When I first met you, I was already 3 heartbreaks old. Desperate for love, naïve, I don’t know but I still wasn’t bitter. You know the feeling you have that maybe the next one will be the one and if you stop trying, you’ll regret it? Maybe that’s the feeling that kept me going. Maybe that is why when I first … Continue reading Giving Up | Jatin
I don’t usually get attached easily. Call it experience or a flaw, I tend to spend more time with people before actually letting them in. It takes me more than a few dates to trust someone, but once they are in, I’m mortified of the day when it comes their time to leave. I’m a non-confrontational person and thus, I’ll try everything in my power … Continue reading Let go of Toxicity | Jatin
It’s been 16 years since you’re gone and that void hasn’t been filled by anyone yet. ‘I just want a million dollars’ introduced most of us to sarcasm and hand to god, who wants advice when you are equipped with sarcasm? You made us realize that the kindest-hearted people are hopeless, awkward, and desperate for love, just looking for someone to unpack with together. Bracelet … Continue reading Open Letter to Chandler Bing | Jatin
An underrated masterpiece. This is one of those movies that stay with you long after the end credits roll. Tara and Ved- Tara deserve to be mentioned first because, without her, we won’t have Ved or this movie. Imtiaz Ali embodies actual human emotions with such ease in his characters and these two accurately showcase his talents. This movie is much more than a love … Continue reading Tamasha: Be who you are | Jatin
It’s an interesting, speculative topic to talk about. Well, I am 21 as of now. 5 years down the line means 26, which means I would have to do some hard adulting, which is a daunting thought on its own. I swear when I was a kid, all I thought about was how sorted life would be when we’d be adults; no tension of doing … Continue reading 5 Years Down the Line | Part 1 | Jatin
‘Cancel culture refers to the popular practice of withdrawing support for cancelling public figures and companies after they have done or said something considered objectionable or offensive. Cancel culture is generally discussed as being performed on social media in the form of group shaming.’ The development of the “cancelling” of individuals, brands, and even shows and films thanks to what some bear in mind to … Continue reading Cancel Culture – Friend or Foe? | Jatin
To Rockstar, Calling you a movie would be a gross understatement. Calling you an experience would be incomplete too. You are something so real and deep that even after a whole decade; you make us feel things that no other movie has ever made us feel. In the innocent eyes of Janardhan, we all saw our naïve reflection, untouched from the feeling of love, hurt … Continue reading With Love comes Pain | Jatin
“Beta yeh tumhara result decide nahi karta ki tum loser ho ya nahi, tumhari koshish karti hai”. (Child, your result doesn’t decide your success, your effort does). I think almost everyone wanted to hear this from their parents at one point or the other in their life. Making Chhichhore hit every chord of human emotions so perfectly. The peer pressure movie we deserved. In the … Continue reading Life Lessons from Chhichhore | Jatin
Not every love story has a happy ending. Not every love story lasts forever. That doesn’t mean the love wasn’t real, or the people were flawed. Sometimes, love only exists to teach you something. The day I confessed to you and you hugged me to say that you loved me too, that day I thought that this was it. This is my endgame. You are … Continue reading Love Never Dies | Jatin
You can’t have it all. I’m sorry, but that’s the truth. No matter how much you try, you just can’t have it all. We all drudge through our life, overcoming challenges every step of the way, thinking that one day we might have it all. One day, we’ll be satisfied with what we have. But that never happens, does it? We learn to stand up … Continue reading The Little Things | Jatin
To the one who’s hard to come by, Love is not complicated. Love is not a math test. Contrary to what people say, it is simple. Love is the content you feel when you watch them widen their eyes when they talk about something they like. It is their thumb slightly caressing your hand when they hold it while crossing the road or their tug … Continue reading The One | Jatin
