This was my 3rd year attending the Mumbai Film Festival aka MAMI. Now if you know me well enough, you’d know that I am an absolute movie junkie & especially when it comes to Bollywood, I go crazy watching films back to back, sometimes first day, first show. MAMI is touted to be one of […]
I am a vintage girl. I wished I belonged to a different time period – 60s, 70s. I love everything about old school. As I was clearing my laptop data, I chanced upon some photos which I had shot for Harper’s Bazaar Singapore, four years back. At that time, I had no idea what a […]
If there’s any one thing that I’d definitely want to do this weekend, it would be to watch the World Television Premiere of Dear Zindagi on 23rd April at 12 PM on Zee Cinema. In case you’ve read my open letter to life, you’d know how eagerly I was waiting to watch this film. And it […]
Dear Zindagi, As I sit by my window sipping a cup of coffee, I realise that we haven’t spoken in a while. And that I haven’t thanked you enough for being so handsome and crazy in the last 20 odd years that I’ve known you. Your selfless love (and sometime obnoxious behaviour) has made me […]
Let It Be . . . Too often we forget what it’s like to just let it be. Whether it’s worry, anxiety, questions, incomplete stories or obligations – sometimes we need to let go and leave things the way they are. We spend hours questioning what could be and what is, we hopelessly wish to […]
Hey guys! I’ve missed you all! I know I’ve been away for a while. I won’t lie but the last week has been challenging. I’ve just been very lost. I don’t have answers to a few questions and I was just taking a bit of time out for myself to reflect on different things. And […]
So, I came across this image on Instagram – it’s a break up letter or rather a little girl’s (possibly 9/10 years old) ‘Brake Up’ note to her boyfriend (ex bf) Shawn. Check it out – It’s adorable and hilarious! Do you think this offers a serious dose of real talk? View this post on Instagram […]
This was something I wrote 2 years back but I just felt like sharing it with you today. Perhaps the time is apt, the weather is romantic and it just feels great to immerse oneself in a topic as lovely as love. Hope you like it. Before I start – tell me people.. According to […]

Last night while I was clearing my old books, I chanced upon a few forlorn diaries that belonged to a much younger me. It was a strange feeling to revisit myself once again through these worn-out pages. I guess writing diaries was fascinating because to me, confiding in people did not quite allow me to really share it all. A few […]
Oh be still, my beating heart! Life might give you the second chance or it might not. But you definitely can give yourself that second chance when it comes to career, love and relationships.

“Time is running out! If you do not get married NOW, you’ll be left alone with black cats, childless with no sex partner and eventually die an old maid in an isolated house”. The nominal trepidations that have peeved my poor ears lately! As a kid, I think most of us fantasized about what we’d […]
The five minutes spent glaring in front of an open closet figuring out what to wear on a date. A few seconds of silly vanity. Stolen gazes that make you chuckle. Checking his Facebook. The precious late night phone-calls. The silently holding hands. Wishing time would just pause. The beginning of a story. Thrill of […]
Two movies. Two love stories. Two trailers which were launched one after another in the past week. Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani AND Lootera’s trailers left some lasting impressions on me. While both trailers were undeniably different from each other, they both had one thing in common – Love! Take a look: Yeh Jawaani Hain Deewani […]
