Come watch "A thousand splendid suns" with me
A few months ago I had gone to watch "The Kite Runner" based on Khalid Hosseni's book. I had zero idea about the book. Only thing I knew was that it's set in war torn afganistan and talks about friendship between two young boys who are on the extreme end of the financial spectrum : son of a master and servant. That show broke me in ways i could never anticipate. No spoilers ahead, but it made me realise that i could handle gore, violence in tv shows even though it's shot so realistically but I couldn't handle a assault scene that's just implied and not even shown during the live theatre show. Why? Because you know movies exaggerate. You can always close it off and know it's fake. War is not an everyday reality for all of us. So it's easy to simply separate it's horror and feel distant. But assault? Oof all of us women know it. We've all had our own fair share. Sometimes small, sometimes extreme. It's that one experience that we don't actually have to go through to feel it. And that's how Kite Runner was. So how is it relevant to "a thousand splendid suns"? Well it's the same author, same director, same theatre production and similar setting but different characters. I'm ready to have my heart broken to pieces anyways. It's not in use anymore. If you want to come and cry with me in a public setting then feel free to join me to watch this show PS : My seat no is a14. You can honestly sit anywhere and still be able to watch things clearly since the auditorium is very small
book shopping at Avenue Road
hi :) i recently got back to reading books and bought a few thrillers from stores in avenue road because i wanted to buy used books instead of new 🦦 i’ll be going again this Sunday (5th September) at 11am to buy some more books, does anyone want to join me? some of the stores buy used books as well so if you wanna sell your old books feel free to bring em we can try selling them. it’s a 5 minute walk away from the “Sir M. Visveshwaraya” metro station on purple line. i’ll be coming via metro so we can meet up there. Adding a landmark here (reliance craft store) as the location link, this is where the road begins, there will be many stores in this street. PS. I went there on a weekday evening last time so it wasn’t as crowded but since its gonna be a weekend this time I believe it may be crowded.

I'm going to watch The Odyssey at 8am. Join me!
Movies are not a group activity. You don't need people to talk with when watching a movie. But you need someone after to discuss about the movie and to have some food. So this Sunday at 8am I'm going to watch the The Odyssey. It's Nolan, Tom, Zendaya. All these names by themselves are enough for me to watch anything they are in. So them combined is gonna be a good thing. So let's go. Watch the movie and have food after in Mantri Mall. I don't think it really matters but my seat is I-13. If you can a find a seat near me, well and good, if not then we'll meet after.

I'm going to "Writing Stories That Move Before They Ask with Vishaka George" workshop on Saturday, 25th July
I'll be going to this workshop tomorrow. I write a lot and yet everytime I've to stop myself from being sarcastic and rude. So i often write and then reduce the "sarcastic" and "rude" aspect of it so that my writing appeals to everyone. But writing is much more than that. Given the current protests happening wrt Neet paper leaks, you can see how same issue is being written with different angles so that it ignites animosity and hatred within one particular section of the society depending upon who's writing it. I am going to this workshop to learn more about how writing can be made better from a journalist herself. You can check out her instagram before deciding to come : https://www.instagram.com/vishasarah The ticket price is worth Rs 1999 but honestly I think it's worth it given the duration of the workshop and the person's skill who's conducting it. See you all there!
