Whence came the autumn?

Yes Yes Prerna the poem is incomplete. I posted it because I was neglecting my MS. Now that you have written I will add one or two more stanzas to complete the thought. Basically, it is about the rise of aggressive Hindutva in India even amongst the traditionally Congree supporting secular... people. Hence the brown leather jackets in the poem as well as the shedding of colour. Manu Thanks for you commentsRead More

Pandher, Rajulingam, Varun & the classes - their Satyam

I agree Kirti Innocent until proven guilty - it is the golden measure but we also know that it has been used & abused to deny justice to the victims & help get reprieve for the guilty... time & again. 2ndly, my argument is hinged in the circumstances & facts & the justifiability (this is in the... last) of Hon. Justice Sodhi coming out in Pandher's defense.Read More

DHARAVI - MODEL SLUM OF FEUDAL-CAPITALIST INDIA
Slumdog Millionaire Movie

I can't possibly simplify my review Darshan as I am very much confused in life myself though I am not in my late teens as you are (possibly I am confused because I am angry & I am angry possibly because I am wise {wink!} which people are usually by the time they hit 40 & because of all this I want t...o write & at the same time I know the futility of it & so I write what I write in a confusing way because I just want to let off the steam building in me from time to time) but if you get the gist of my whole argument & want to understand more clearly about what I am trying to say, then I can possibly suggest 4 writers among thousands & I do it most humbly because I am no expert in these subjects myself & don't want to be shouted at by you. But I see some special innocence & modesty in you & I hope this innocence & youthful urge will take you on a beautiful journey without in any way whatsoever clouding the fact that WE & YOU LIVE IN A REAL WORLD & INTERACT WITH REAL PEOPLE WHO MIGHT NOT BE SYMPATHETIC ENTIRELY WITH WHAT THE WRITERS I SUGGEST HAVE TO SAY. STILL, I CAN SAY THIS MUCH WITHOUT AN IOTA OF DOUBT THAT THE FOLLOWING WRITERS & THE OTHERS WHICH YOU MIGHT BE SWEETLY COMPELLED TO REFER TO MAKE THE INCOMPLETE PICTURE OF OUR SCARRED WORLD MORE CLEAR & UNDERSTANDABLE. 1. Noam Chomsky (start off with reading his MANUFACTURING CONSENT) 2. Our own - Arundhati Roy 3. Sameer Amin ( a foremost & brilliant scholar/activist just like the above 2 4. Naomi Klein (do read her recently published book The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster CapitalismRead More

DHARAVI - MODEL SLUM OF FEUDAL-CAPITALIST INDIA

I am forced to add these comments because DARSHAN WALIA from erstwhile Bombay wrote: "I didn't understand a word."I make a clarification. THE WHOLE IDEA OF MAKING SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE WITH OR WITHOUT THE WALL STREET CRASH WAS: The capitalist system works as far as creation of personal wealt...Read more
