My guest post!

In this blogging journey of around 15 months I have come across a wonderful fellow blogger Swarnali who is very cute and adorable.  The name of her blog is also mystical- Dreams n Drama.

I had come across her blog when I did my first book review for Blog Adda - A Calendar too crowded and had fallen in love with both - her blog and her writing. Her header pictures are somethings which should not be missed at all.

I have done a guest post on her blog which you can read HERE. She has been really sweet is using those wonderful words for me and I am really touched with her sweet gesture. Though this is my first attempt at 55 fiction, this will always remain special to me because of this wonderful gesture by her.

Please do read my first attempt at 55 fiction and do let me know your views on the same.

Movie Review: If by Tathagata Ghosh – A Tender Portrait of Love, Loss, and Possibility

If , a 26-minute short film by acclaimed Bengali filmmaker Tathagata Ghosh, is a sensitive, evocative piece of storytelling that lingers long after the credits roll.

Ghosh masterfully uses these moments to speak volumes, allowing viewers to sit with discomfort, interpret the unspoken, and feel deeply.

This collection, imbued with personal history, political outrage, and spiritual contemplation, serves as both a witness to injustice and a call to humanity. The work’s origins lie deeply in Lababidi’s own roots—his Palestinian grandmother, Rabiha Dajani, was forced to flee Jerusalem at gunpoint, a traumatic event that reverberates throughout Lababidi’s poetry.  As an Arab-American writer, Lababidi is uniquely positioned to speak on the intersection of identity, politics, and human rights. His poetry, both personal and political, draws a clear line between the suffering of the Palestinian people and the complicity of global powers in perpetuating that suffering. Through his words, Lababidi eloquently counters the equation that Z...
