Haiku on Life

One stitch as a time —
Amidst Life's ebb and flow
Sanity survives.

Sweet the cuckoo of spring sings -
Of  feelings unknown.

Those Cursive Days

I bumped into an old notebook from my university days while cleaning one of my bookshelves. The notebook reminded me that I used to have pretty decent handwriting. It reminded me of our English teacher at St. Joseph's Convent High School, Chittaranjan — Ms Gladys McCrahan.

Welcome to Sajjanpur

Today I got the chance to watch Welcome to Sajjanpur. Today's Sunday, I had no engagement, wanted to have some good time, and by chance  browsed through the newspaper to know that the film was to be aired on Zee cinema ar 8 p.m.I am really thankful that though the film had been released last year, I did not read any review of the film till date. I only had a vague idea that Welcome to Sajjanpur is a low-budget [?] film which was supposed to be a well-made one, [some critic had dedicated a couple of lines in praise of the film in some different context] and had Amrita Rao in the cast.
