3 idiots

Anybody who’s seen the movie “3 idiots” will leave the theatre in stitches, an instant walking advertisement for the movie. Because the movie is just that good. During a time when the multiplexes are filled with dark films and typical Bollywood dramas, this film is a breath of fresh air. With a new spin on 'ragging' and the Indian system of education, it is a light-hearted comedy tackling social issues.

An idyllic early morning fast train


Standing by the doors of a fast train in the morning (when it’s reasonably crowded) is the perfect start to a wonderful day. To feel the cold breeze mingled with the warm sunshine while the miles fly by is pure bliss.

The cold buffeting wind makes your eyes water, your fingers go numb and your hair whip about your face. Yet, you know you won’t exchange that idyllic sense of calm and happiness for anything in the world. There’s that moment where all your worries and anxieties float away from you and everything seems right in the world. It’s that sense of perfection that permeates and lingers throughout the day that almost makes you glad you rose before the sun, to catch that fast train.
