Prathamesh Puraan...

#prathameshpuraan  #atramshatramrandomthoughts  #PrathameshCircus .. My dad being in RBI we stayed in various areas in Mumbai. Places which we couldn't afford if it wasn't for RBI. Mumbai it makes a huge difference from which area u come from .. so town to bandra are basically people from town and Andheri onwards we are from suburbs . Characteristics of people  differ depending on which part you come from . Clothes , temperaments , likes dislikes everything differs . I guess all big cities have these divisions Newyork , London and Amchi Mumbai . Delhi i haven't really paid attention i don't like that city anyways . So either u are born and bought up in one place and then shift after u get a job or get married . We shifted every 8 months to be precise.. So we were Simpletons from Nagpur from Ajanta Coloney Chinwada Road ..and dad was transferred to Mumbai and we got a place in Bandra Linking Road .  I went to school in Pali hill so met these women/girls with perfect s...

Prathamesh Puraan Inaugration

#prathameshpuraan #atramshatramrandomthoughts Prathamesh Puraan is my journey , my struggles to change/adapt to a small part of the society i was living in . I could have played a very small part in this but this has been my journey for 3 years . Today along with a few good Samaritans I inaugrated the much needed culvert in our area . Huge huge work . We have struggled with water logging over a decade . This seemed to be the last leg of the problems . Not that all is perfect after this but i had promised myself i will do what it takes to get these few things done . It all started when one day because of the huge traffic jams and so many other issues i decided to get down and sort a few things myself .. with kids it's usually a women who faces day to day challenges and in a big city like Mumbai there are new challenges daily. Its not that others had not tried or didn't want to change things but when ur heart really wants something so badly ..nature listens and suddenly i was sur...

Gulabo Sitabo Review

#gulabositabo #atramshatramrandomthoughts Brilliant Bacchan as Mirza  !!❤️ Lucknow ❤️ Lucknowi Hindi - Urdu ❤️ Everytime you think Bacchan has done it.. this is his best performance ..he prooves us wrong . His character is so different in this movie sly , greedy yet so lovable . Juhi chaturvedi's writing flawless as usual . A good laugh in these troubled  times . Gulabo - Sitabo are traditional glove puppet theatre from Uttar Pradesh in north India and are named after the two heroines who are represented in the show: Sitabo, the worn out, overworked spouse; and Gulabo, the scintillating mistress of the same man.  Missed watching it in theatre with a popcorn and cofee and Divya Misra Sunita Chaswal Sinha must watch !

#atramshatramrandomthoughts Bi-polar , Depression different names but suffering is the same not just for the person but people around them to . It's a very difficult topic to discuss and i have avoided it as much as i could .. but this is increasing now because of stress , competition , lifestyle , food . I have seen depression at a  early age someone really close. Seen the person ruin his life slowly bit by bit . They struggle to be normal .it's not a good feeling when a good movie a new pair of footwear or a bag dosent make you happy anymore , ur family members their achievements don't make you happy . Believe me they try and till they are trying there is hope . Not just theirs whole family looses faith in everything ..what could we have done so wrong tp deserve this . I remember going to watch a movie with the whole family and realised we all burst out crying in the theatre ..home we never got the fursat to think about our emotions and we couldn't react because atlea...

Friendships over Chai !

#jaladadairies  #atramshatramrandomthoughts Chai friends . Mom with her tea partners . I remember her working really quickly so all house work finishes by 12  and then this gang would meet for gupshup .This was a routine Monday to Friday just a cup of tea and lots of talking sharing . Task of making tea was usually assigned to which kid was available at home . We lived 12 long years in Jalada but it's the only life we remember really happy and content ofcourse sea side apartment helped too 😀. But simple honest  friendships .. !!!! We can only hope to see now . I guess that's why I am addicted to tea reminds me of the good times and good people .

Movie Mania

#atramshatramrandomthoughts Movies have always been a big part of my life . Usually when we are kids watching tv or movies isn't considered to be of any use ..waste of time but i strongly disagree .    I didn't really understand the accent in English movies which i told my dad . Immediately he got into action every weekend Saturday we had to watch a English classic and Sunday Hindi  Classic .   We would actually look foreward to selecting the movie sitting together and watching it .  Movies keep me sane ..happy ..connected .. I learnt english only watching movies ..books helped too thoda bahut  ;). My dad introduced me to this awsum world ..when VCRs had just been launched and so many video libraries stocking most amazing movies. Prabhadevi we had a SAGAR video library just across the street ..Friday evening marathon would start so 3 days we has to watch 4 to 5 movies .  1 had to be Dilip kumar .. 2 english . Once we got hang of their accents...
