Mountains

To the mountains;

tiny parts of them, 

that I felt like I had conquered


To the mountains;

mighty and huge,

that I saw from a distance


To the mountains;

full of stories, 

full of hope


To the mountains;

that I hadn't dreamt of,

 but felt like a dream


To the mountains;

cold yet so warm,

miles away from home yet homely


To the mountains;

unpredictable

and beautiful


To the mountains;

to parts of them,

that moved me,

I shall be grateful...

From Shadows to Summit: Why South Africa’s WTC Victory is Truly Historic

-

  South Africa’s triumph in the 2025 World Test Championship Final against Australia is far more than a cricketing achievement. It is a historic breakthrough representing not only the country’s first global cricket title in 27 years, but also the redemption of a nation whose cricketing past is deeply entwined with racial injustice, political exile, and the enduring quest for unity. For a team often accused of crumbling in high-pressure moments, this win isn't just about lifting a trophy but about rewriting a narrative that spans colonialism, apartheid, and generational heartbreak.  Cricket in South Africa was born of empire (like in most colonies). The British brought the game to the Cape in the 1800s, and by 1889, South Africa became the third Test-playing nation after England and Australia.  Right from its early days, South African cricket was the domain of the white elite. Talented Black and Coloured cricketers were systemically excluded from national recognition. Cric...

A Market Morning

-

Around two years ago, on a Thursday morning, I woke up feeling insanely blue. The thought of going to college felt unbearable. After minutes of reflection and thorough calculations about my attendance percentages, I decided to bunk. However, I couldn’t go back to sleep. I felt weirdly restless. I hopped out of bed and decided to take a walk. Staying in Basavanagudi had its perks (a lot of them), Gandhi Bazar was just a couple of lanes away. I got dressed, grabbed my camera and headed straight to the flower market. It was quarter to eight, and the market was just coming to life. Vendors were settling into their usual spots, prepping for the day ahead. Fresh loads of flowers had arrived, flooding the morning air with rich scents. The Sun shone shyly, giving the colorful flowers a tinge of contouring.              The following day was Vara Mahalakshmi Vrata and thus, it was busier than usual. People bustled through the market looking at what every vendor...

Cinema Rant

-
  Give me over-the-top action, loud punchlines, and logic-defying plots, and I’ll probably still have a good time. What I can’t stand is when a film tries to act all deep and meaningful but ends up being blind. Here’s the thing; I might whistle at an awkwardly rhymed ‘build up’ dialogue of a regional hero but can’t stand a sentimental monologue, with a ‘social message’ which mistakes oversimplification for insight. The films that use assault or gendered violence merely as plot devices (Lazy tropes!), often with graphic visuals, only to glorify the male lead as a savior, take the crown. These narratives show little to no intention of empathizing with victims or treating their trauma with humanity. They are nothing but exploitative. Even when the screenplay is gripping and the story telling extraordinary, overlooking this exploitation is irrational. I would rather watch thrillers with zero logic and exaggerated acting. They are a safer bet for my sanity. I would be fine watch...
