Sameer Gudhate Presents the Book Review of Sach Kahun Toh by Neena Gupta

I’ll tell you where I was when I opened Sach Kahun Toh. Midnight. Rain outside. My bedside lamp spilling that warm amber glow across the pages. And almost instantly, it felt less like I was reading a book and more like Neena Gupta herself had pulled up a chair across the table and begun to talk. Not with the guardedness of a celebrity, not with the practiced diplomacy of someone used to cameras, b...

Vinyl

A co-worker who shares similar musical interests asked me this question - What albums would you want to own on vinyl. The medium of choice speaks to the gravity of the question - not just its significance to you but also the listening experience. Picture a sunlit room. Turn table hooked to a high grade amplifier feeding tower speakers or nice headphones. And you just sitting back in your favorite ...

A Flight to White

There’s too much red, green, yellow, and blue,Colors colliding in a blinding hue.The little birdie craves for the white—pure, wide, and deep,Where peace can whisper her softly to sleep.Too much is happening, loud and unclear,Each moment feels tangled in worry and fear.Just once, she wishes to let it all go,To silence the inner noise, let stillness flow.No plans to make, no roles to play,Just she, ...

Monsoon Musings: A Rainy Saturday in Pune

There’s something magical about waking up to the sound of rain in Pune—especially on a Saturday. The usual buzz of the city takes a backseat as the clouds roll in, softening the morning light and slowing the pace of everything. It's as if the city itself sighs in relief, wrapped in a grey, drizzling blanket.The day begins with that unmistakable petrichor—earth’s perfume after the first drops kiss ...

Zindagi zinda-dili ka naam hai

There was a time I’d chase sunsets with a camera in one hand and a plan for the perfect Instagram grid in the other. Every frame told a story. Every moment had a caption. Fast forward to now, and I’m mostly capturing toy-strewn floors, sleepy smiles, and half-eaten snacks… all on my phone, for an audience of exactly zero.Life changed. Priorities shifted. And honestly, I don’t miss the likes or the...

Empty weekends

The second half of the year has begun. The specialty is there would be many long weekends because of the festivities. It’s the time of the year when I wallow of not having the “family friends” which our parents were blessed with in their generation. Maybe they were just the neighbours or colleagues who became family, but there were picnics held, day trips done to temples etc. Now, in the big metro...

The Wednesday morning show

I have come out for the morning show today. For someone who never wanted to watch movies alone it’s amazing how life takes a twist to where I end up enjoying movie watching alone in a theatre. Yes there are other couples and gang of friends nearby you tempting your emotions to wallow in the loneliness but you can also remind yourselves to have a role play where in you are Anupama Chopra in the the...
