The Mystery about the mysterious....

 

In today's #DigitalDabba, I would want to introduce you to two very strong and meticulous characters who have taught me a thing or two over this last weekend. Inspector Maruti Nagargoje and Kevin Thomas. People who have the power to make us think about what we are doing, where we are heading to and how we are going to end up. You might feel that I am kind of obsessed with crime and mystery thrillers which is partly right. It seems to be the current flavour of the season for me.

#LIFEGOALS - Inspector Maruti Nagargoje is assigned a strange case which on the face of it seems like a simple accident of an elderly person who stays with his son and daughter-in-law. He raises all sorts of doubts and queries and confuses the rest of them to think it could have been a suicide or even a murder attempt. He makes sure he is on the nerves of everyone involved till the end. On the other hand Mr. Kevin Thomas works is a Cyber Security Engineering, a top paying role in the current digital world. He has been requested personally by his Aunt to find out about a certain girl whom her son had met online and now wants to get married to. Though he is reluctant about using his expertise for entertaining such personal requests, he goes ahead with it for the sake of his cousin.

#STRENGTHS - On one hand Inspector Maruti Nagargoje tries to bring us close to certain real facts which we tend to ignore or avoid in our monotonous lifestyle and on the other hand he also tries hard to play with our minds and our assumptions to be precise. While Kevin Thomas shows us a sneak peak into the background of what goes behind the beautiful virtual world that we all have become a par of, he also makes sure that we stop and think about our human values for a while.

#FATALBLOWS - Inspector Maruti Nagargoje doesn't stop at suspecting that it could have been a murder attempt but goes to the length of creating a panic situation for both the daughter-in-law and the son. The final blow is when the son becomes the prime suspect owing to few uncanny proofs. Meanwhile, Kevin Thomas comes to know that his cousin has landed in trouble because of the girl whom he was about to marry. And he decides to get deeper into the details of it.

#GIVEAWAYS - Both Inspector Maruti Nagargoje and Kevin Thomas make sure that we go along them with their thoughts, follow their assumptions and get judgemental about things through out till the end. Both these movies offer two distinct yet strong inherent messages which are very essential in current day's materialistic world that is ever changing.

The reason why I do not want to spill out any more beans about it is that I want you to go watch them and feel it for yourself. Do not take it otherwise. In case you are curious or suspicious, do hit #AmazonPrime to watch these lovely works of fiction.

Inspector Maruti Nagargoje played by Nana Patekar in Apla Manus (Marathi - 2017)

Kevin Thomas played by Fahaad Fasil in C U Soon (Malayalam - 2020)

Happy Mother's Day........

Wishing my friends a not just a Happy but a Wonderful Mother's Day. I just realised that we are no more just friends, we are probably extended family. They say a friend in need is a friend indeed, But these guys were there for me even when I didn't need them. Love you guys. Keep rocking. We are meant to be. My memories of this day go back to about 13 yrs from now, we've been celebrating this day from then on with a little difference every year. Today, we don't celebrate this day of the year like the earlier ones, but we still do it together........ in a different sense though. It all started when we loved spending time with each other and never used to leave any chance of celebration just for the sake of being together. We adored our Moms with flowers, cards, gifts, goodies and also ended up doing the daily chores for them (couple of times). All this not only because we loved our Mom's but also because we could get another reason to celebrate .......... together

Monday Mornings

Monday Mornings taught me that it's fine to forget the sweet memories of yesterday and move on to the goodies coming forth. During my early days of life Monday Mornings were filled with gradual lethargy caused due to the remains of the previous days' fun and frolic leading to come up with various reasons of not going to School but in vain. A little later they marked the excitement of getting back to my pals with juicy gossip and blabber within me and I started looking forward to the Monday Mornings. End of school and it looked as if these Monday Mornings would never turn up again in life. And they never did....till date. Monday Mornings taught me that it is not always what happens but also who all were with us when it happened that that makes it a special memory.   When in college it was a different story altogether. We considered it to be the best day of the whole week when we used to spend the whole day scheduling our week on submitting assignments with " Better late

A Religion called TECHNOLOGY

How many of us understand our religion let alone following it religiously? None. Now that was way too easy. Most of us actually get irritated on the name of religion, yes, you read it right. IRRITATED. Might be because it's so complicated to understand and more so to follow. Yet, there's a strange thing which I have noticed. A special religion which we keep following while we study, play, work, dine, gossip and even when we need to communicate to one another. A religion which we follow sub consciously all through the day and can't do without. A religion, called TECHNOLOGY .  A religion is a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a supernatural agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs - Wikipedia says it.   We don't wake up to the tinkling of our Mom's Bangles, we don't g
