FICTION



I think i know how to write.. atleast i think so... n i can plot , plot stories.. yes i can write them down...i know how to write ..

I can script an end..what i like , and audiences...they like it...then i guess i know how to write..

Yes, then cant i script an end to my own stories... i believe i can ...atleast i believe so...

The end... one way or the other way round..is the same...its the case with all tragedies, the hero dies and the story lives on...


"He that hath wife and children hath given hostages to fortune, for they are impediments to great enterprises, either of virtue or mischief. Certainly the best works and of greatest merit for the public have proceeded from the men not in love, which both in affection and means have married and endowed the public."

Sometimes when we lose ourselves in fear and despair;in routine and constancy ; in hopelessness and tragedy , we can thank god for
Bavarian sugar cookies.

And fortunately when there arent any cookies..we can still find reassurance in a familiar hand on our skin.

or a kind and loving gesture.

or a subtle encouragement.

or a loving embrace.


or an offer of comfort.

Not to mention hospital gurneys and nose plugs.And uneaten Danish and softspoken secrets and Fender Stratocasters.

and maybe the occassional piece of fiction. And we must remember that all these things; the nuances, the anomalies,the subtleties...which we assume only
accesorize our days are infact in here for a much larger and nobler cause.

They are here to save our lives..

I know the idea seems strange, but i also know that it just so happens to be true !!

In The Name Of God

~~~~~~~~~~~~ In The Name Of God ~~~~~~~~~~~~

And never before have i craved that the actress ;playing Mary here; crosses the god damned river to evade the clutches of those despotic beasts.

and well...when i should have been sleeping ma ass off given ma onerous APOGEE schedules...i decided to watch this movie KHUDA KE LIYE;
long time due having lost interest in hindi cinema ; but recently recommended rather endorsed by Minu.
And Minu , believe me is a connoissuer when it comes to movie sense or given artistic choices for that purpose...

more so given the fact that quite a few of our fancies overlap ;i had better tagged her interests as subtle. But a suggestion for her,
given her esoteric self or the approach, dear you could be missing out on a few good ones coz of the same attitude.

So..Khuda ke Liye..for those who havent seen it as yet.. its bout a pakistani-British gal , played by Iman Ali....
who is duped by her father into goin 2 pakistan n marrying there 2 her cousin . There she is kept hostage in some village on the border of Afghanistan ..
so that she is discouraged from an attempt at escaping.All this in the name of blasphemy she was goin to conduct by marrying a British guy.

And the atrocities are all a part of the tale..Then there is this elder brother ,named Mansoor,of her husband who post 9/11 has to deal with the American wrath.

And as i was charmed by the winsome Iman Ali .....as i was getting engrossed in the beautiful backdrop against which the movie has been set up.
As i was glad to see a pakistani movie for the first time..As i was acknowledging the realm of pakistan's art n artists...but for these sultry arse-h***s ...



This .... the protaganist in the tale,Mansoor,...he introduces himself to this American gal as a pakistani...while the gal questions...is that even a country !!
where's its postion on the globe..??
And this dumb F*** , goes on xplaining.... "here's Iran, here's Afghanistan , here's China, here's India...and in the centre lies pakistan"...... the gal,xclaims..India ..oh yes i know that ...I love the Taj Mahal ..

The dumb F*** ,Manssor,goes for the revelation ..."ya India..we ruled it for for 1000 years..n Spain , we ruled it for 800 years , and the Taj
Mahal..we built it"... this arse-**** ...son of a ***** ..
.F*** his forefathers n all his coming generations...

N am i like, bizzarely for a 'few of u ' who call me d composed chuck, im lik enraged to unimaginable arrants..

Bloody pigs that they are..who even owe their identity to India for locating their position on the map..who owe every penny ,
that they shovle up their a**, to India ..regale in the fact that they ruled us...ruled ma a**.. !!

and Taj Mahal...burn *****f**** ... its Indian artists n artisans who built it...and not that mo**** f**** Shah Jahan...
F*** Babar, F*** Akbar, F*** Shah Jahan....

So this one incident in this one movie irks me...lacerates the me who's been an ardent and enthusiastic supporter of the peace process or the cordial
n brotherhood thingos b/w the two nations... its turned me.. into a fanatic who now rebukes pakistan publically;
maybe this article lands up in the hands of taliban -pakistan -terrorists...whtever ; they are all the same ; arent they....

maybe i stand a chance of being tortured to death after this...but for the first time in 20 years , something "Indian" is wht i feel.....

And the director...whom i had been appreciating the skillful and insightful depiction of the emotional anguish of Mary ...
Like the scene where the these two young gals in that house where Mary is abducted..." Aaapa Aap bag jao...Um to english seeke bina kaam chala lenge"....

or the plight of women in that shithole of a place...where Mary pleads to God that let her child be a boy...no ...not at all a girl...
the director...now ill laud him for beautifully bringing out the cheap bastardy that sucks their brains...

So..in those lands...it is preached...by the highest Islamic authorities...that u are not a "mard" until u have killed innocent people...
or for that purpose..if it comes to showing your power...raped a woman...like Mary's husband does to her...
so that she wont run given her child would b there...

Hence the American officer gets it right who abducts the elder brother, , for false 9/11 accusations;
when he says.." you cant afford to live well...Osama must have paid for you..after all you are a poor country "...
and more remarkabely... "YOu kill in the name of god , and then you lie in the name of god " ..

of Fig Leaves

Saying the word f*** twice each line doesn make you an anarchistic writer.To be rbellious you need more..

I don know what this post is about...i just dont know..

Random thoughts....

Plangent,some of them are...they indulge me'

Everyone's talkin' , all this stuff bout me..
Why dont they just let me be ...

I dont need permission,
to make my own decision,,that's ma prerogative !

cut.........

Ruminating, some of those thoughts are... they inspire me..

At the interview..

> how are you ?

im a little under the weather but, gud..gud 2 be here...thanks...

> some folks have compared the wait for your new post to the decade plus wait for the guns n roses album...which one
do you think will see the light of the day first ?

i certainly hope that i beat guns n roses to the punch..coz i wanna get to Oprah's book club..
i want a sticker from the book club
i wanna get on the show and ask her 'bout the scene..where she squats n pees ...how many retakes...does she have a method ...

(interrupt )

> on a more serious note your blog is prompting a lot of under the cover cooling talk ?

thank you ...but its more like pissing out of my ass...things just bother me n i write about them...

> so what is bothering you know, wht's your latest obsession ?

its just the fact that people dont write anymore...
Just the fact that people seem to be getting dumber and dumber..
you know..we have all this amazing technology and yet computers have turned into 4 figure whank machines...

Internet - it was supposed to set us free, democratize us..but all its given us is how Howard Dean
aborted candidature and 24 hour access to kitty porn.

People , they blog...instead of talking they text...
No punctuation, no grammar..
Lol this and Roflmao that...

Its just a bunch of stupid people psuedo communicating with a bunch of other stupid people, with a
prototype that seems more of cave's menu than kings english ...

> You are a part of the problem , aren't you ... you are out there blogging with the best of them ??

Hence...myself on a low then..
