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 ?

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...

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...
