World has suddenly shrunk !

#atramshatramrandomthoughts

When we were younger after Information Technology boom the world had suddenly opened up for us .. going to America was no big deal ..it wasn't only a few who excelled in studies or were rich were going now .. every house had a child going to different parts of the world . Middle class families suddenly were going for trips abroad which was unimaginable otherwise.

My dad stopped telling me phalana  ka son studied so well 'dekho America chala gaya ' I could go too !
 
My dad being in Reserve Bank was transferred for a while to Germany to Deutsche bank  that was our first time someone in the family left India and we were soo excited . 

We too ..when we wish our kids do well, we wish they travel see the world ..have experiences they will cherish .. but suddenly that has changed . I would not want my kid to be alone even in the same country .

 The 'new normal' has completly left us without dreams or  aspirations. 

Even after Covid goes will we ever trust any city to take care of our precious ones .

 Suddenly the world that had opened up for us has closed down on our kids ?

#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...

These are good happy memories which our kids will keep with them I know I have ..I remember every function we have done when we were kids .  I remember my mom sitting with her sewing machine making curtains for the stage during Ganpati . Huge green curtains ..I remember her tying a jhoola to the tree during Teej.  I remember Pathak aunty sitting in the garden and making fresh bhaang. I remember one aunty getting drunk on it and creating a ruckus. I remember after holi the whole building lying down in the garden under the sun . I have loved holi ever since . I remember janmashtmi in the community hall we did Krishna Janam together . All 80 flats would be a part . I remember the antakshri competitions at 12 in the night . I remember the awesome stage plays we did.  I remember watching Teesri Manzil and Gumnaam together ...

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 !
