The Untold Story

Disclaimer: This is again a poem that I wrote during my recent love-related experiences. It does not have much bearing now, but I love it somehow. I hope you enjoy it too!



Things have not been right

I'm faltering to reach the light
The light that will cut me up
And then tear me to the core

There was a time I felt unloved
Which someone tried to undo
I broke their heart instead
Oh, what a silly agony to bear!

They are happy I hope
Found the one to fulfill their longing
While I sit writing this
The unsung side of a story no one hears

The story of an anxious boy
Dying to see the light of day
All he did always
T'was hope and pray

The boy who never left home
Fearing the claws of the doom
The doom that only awaits 
Awaits for someone like him

Movie Review: Sometimes

The other day, after watching Dhobi Ghat for the second time, Netflix suggested that I watch a Tamil movie called Sometimes (Tamil: Sila Samayangalil ). Interested by its plot, I decided to start watching this seemingly somber film. Well, I wasn’t disappointed, but neither was I amazed. I got what I expected. Before we get to that, I think I should dive a little deeper into the plot. Seven strangers, waiting in a blood test center’s waiting room for their HIV test results, decide to bribe the counter lady so that they can get to know their results as soon as possible. The counter lady finds out only half the information—one of the seven people is HIV-positive. Rather than relieving their stress, it increases the protagonists’ necessity to know the results. This is the basic plot, literally the one displayed on Netflix.  This 2018 movie has the coveted Prakash Raj and Nasser. Prakash Raj, as usual, gives a stellar performance, whereas Nasser is present on screen for barely fiv...
