"The Shadow"

Sat down by the river side, Happened to see the shadow saying lie The picture was hazy and the light was about to die Not ready to face the truth, I was shy. The day got over but I was hell bound, and the thought kept coming around. Could listen to my heart pounding with a peculiar sound, I was lost but did not want to be loud. The next day was cloudy and it was about to rain, Mustered my energy and went by the river side again, To look out for a new identity and to be sane, Unfortunately saw a lost soul about to be drained. The truth was bitter than what I had thought, But I knew I could fight the situation out, Wanted to forget the past and the callous ghost, Rediscovering the soul looked within the coast. Things were beautiful now and the picture was clear, The roads were wider and the ears could hear, All the eyes were open and there was no tinge of tear, Without a doubt, everyone looked dear. The light was brighter and the belly had a new fire, With an open vision, the destiny was...

"The Best Wimbledon Final ever”

Ohh it’s been two weeks now. But the memory of that improbable match is still fresh and alive in my mind and heart. I am sure it would remain forever. It was a true delight to watch the two geniuses at play matching stroke by stroke. What was delightful to see the way two handled themselves post match. One man was the reigning champion, the untouchable who has caught hold of the famous Wimbledon trophy for the last five years now. The other was the lion hearted genius, trying relentlessly to catch the same for the last three years. But there was no bad taste after the match and both of them complimented each other like true champions. They are true idols for everyone around. The match started with an early break in favour of Nadal, Though Federer had his chances in the first set, Nadal definitely was the better player in the first set. Second set was a bit dramatic and after the 4-1 lead for fed ex, no one would have imagined the eventual scoreline, 6-4, in favour of Nadal. I have hard...

The word "Passion"

How many times our adrenaline has rushed when we have watched a really close encounter between India and Pakistan in a cricket match? Pretty often I guess. That is the time when most of us really connect to our country. The proud feeling of being an Indian touches our hearts and gives us goose bumps. The emotion and the passion entrusted in the cricket match bring in togetherness and unity. Well that’s the beauty of being passionate about your country. It brings in positivity and happiness. Passion can be anything from riding a bike to writing. It can be as surreal as collecting coins. But, the important thing is to understand it and to live with it. The day a person loses out on it is the time when life becomes colourless and mundane. There are times when you feel down and don’t want to wake up again. Those are the times when one should invest his or her energy on what they really want or wanted to do in life. The satisfaction out of it gives a new zest. It gives the courage to look b...

"The Sunrise"

Woke up in the morning for a new sunrise, Hoping it would bring some thing to smile. No was the answer from deep inside, When would I see a new sunrise? Lost in the mountains and the crowded lines, Can’t find it in the heavens and between the silver lines, Behind the ocean, in a deep blue sky Raised the sun with the same old sly! There was no cloud in the sky, I was happy and I wanted to fly. Before some one came and said good bye, I was left stranded to clear my eye. A new beginning was in my mind, Though my sight was at the hind. Was there any one to read between the lines? Not ready to give up, hope was my pride. The sun rose again with a different shine, Without being somber, it tasted like a wine, Came out with it a new lease of life, Oh my god I am on a high. The sun is now with a different light, So I’ll try my best to keep it alight, Would never give up and keep up the fight, Before it goes out of my sight!

"Wimbledon-The Party Begins”

The new season of Wimbledon is ready to rock and roll from 23rd of June and the excitement level for this tournament is humungous like every year. But this year Nadal and Djokovic have added an extra spice to the tournament which has seen only one champion for the last five year “Roger Federer”. Needless to say that Fed Ex is the favourite this time too but after the annihilating defeat against Nadal in the French open and a shocking defeat at the hands of Djokovic in the Australian open, the competition would be very close this time around. The Surface Grass is very different than clay and Federer’s 59 match undefeated run on grass shows his total dominance over others in world tennis.Though, this time Nadal is in incredible form.After winning the French open, he has also won a very prestigious grass court tournament at queens beating a very impressive Djokovic in the finals. We also have very good grass court players in the form of Andy Roddick and Hewitt who can surprise any one on ...

Federer--Nadal showdown

This is the third time Federer would meet Nadal in the finals of the French open. Fed ex having conquered everything but french open needs one big tonic in the form of winning the French open to become one of the greatest to be ever on the tennis court.Needless, to say he has a big hurdle in the form of Rafael Nadal who would look to set the records straight once again against Fed Ex.At such a meager age he would look to level the record of the great Bjorn Borg. I know odds are in favour of Nadal with the kind of record he has on clay. Also Nadal leads Federer by 10-6 in head to head meet. But Fed Ex has nerves of steel like a true champion and i feel this is a break or make year for him in terms of getting supreme on clay. If we go by this year Hamburg Masters open final, Federer has lots of work to do against Nadal on clay.Nadal is an absolute genius and master on clay and i absolutely adore him.But more than that i respect Federer's class and consistency. It would be only fair i...

"Aarushi Murder Case-An Eye opener"

“Aarushi Murder Case-An Eye opener” What we have witnessed in the Aarushi- Hemraj murder case has been anything but outrageous. The whole case has been an eye opener for the Media and the General public. Media is a very important tool which unfortunately has been misused by the police and the media itself. Each and every Case is being turned into a soap opera as it leads to high TRP’s. Commercialization of the News channels has had an adverse effect on its content. Blaming a Father for the murder of his own daughter is something which is very new to the Indian society. The hearts of an average Indian would not agree to this theory. No one can empathize with the family and the grief they are undergoing right now as it is an all together new territory which hardly anyone has experienced. Though we must respect the investigation by police, the manner in which it has been carried out has left all of us to ponder about the Truth. I was watching the show “We the People” on NDTV and a very in...
