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)

the FIRST INDIAN FEMALE TEACHER

  The advocacy of women’s rights on the ground of equality of the sexes is the dictionary definition of FEMINISM . Don’t worry. I am not going to write about Feminism today. It is way to heavy a topic to be written about for my #wisewednesdays . But it is definitely something worth being read. Have no doubts about that. Not just because I am writing it, but also because of who it is being written about. I am sure most of you must be familiar about her, it’s ok even if you are not. No one is going to fine you for that. A social reformer, educationalist and a poet, she is regarded as the first female teacher of India. She opposed several of the then prevalent societal ills like child marriage, sati, untouchability, gender and caste based discrimination and advocated strongly for widow re marriages and inter caste marriages. Born on 3rd January, 1831 and married at the age of 9 to a 13 year old social reformer who not only encouraged her to educate herself but supported her quest to...

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...
