The admit cards, the passport size picture and the government approved ID were checked before we got into the car. These, at least would get us into the ring.

We want to be slaves
Freedom! Freedom! Chanted the revolutionaries as they marched resolutely against the oppressors. …And one day they were free. That should be the end, isn’t it? But then it is not. Its a new order. But it still isn’t free. Freedom is elusive. They could not find it. They continue their struggle. Did they really wantContinue reading “We want to be slaves”

अपने कल का कलाकार
यादों का क्या अतीत का आईना है। अतीत का क्या यादों ने ही पिरोया है। कुछ याद रहा कुछ भूल गया। कुछ याद रखा कुछ भुला दिया। मेरा अतीत मेरा है मैंने बनाया है मेरा भविष्य मेरा है मैंने बनाना है आईना साफ़ है कोई शिकन नहीं कदम पे मायूसी कि बेड़ियाँ भी नहीं नाContinue reading “अपने कल का कलाकार”
सफर का नशा
मदहोश नशे में, मदमस्त चल पडे़ थे जुनून का नशा था, हसीन ख्वाब लिए चल पड़े थे काम का बोझ तो गहरा था दिन-रात का फर्क भी खो चुका था पर एक सुरूर सा आ रहा था एक मस्ती का मंज़र था फिर एक दिन, अफसोस अपनी मंज़िल से टकरा गए खुशी की उम्मीद थीContinue reading “सफर का नशा”

The cone of Anxiety
It was another one of the days of chasing the deadlines. The misses of the previous dates were accumulating into an astronomical wave. The baggage of the ‘Could Nots’ was weighing me down as much as the expectancy of the exit through this competitive tunnel. The meeting tomorrow was a make or break one. IContinue reading “The cone of Anxiety”
Gravity of Death
Someone just died. I took the news, as just another tragic news on TV. But then, what seemed surprising, was this was the death of a colleague. It wasn’t someone who I knew personally, but stayed and worked under the same roof. We belonged to the same institution. I thought, it was reason enough toContinue reading “Gravity of Death”
