In the chaotic realm of Crescent’s Christmas party, where gulab jamuns steal the spotlight, students embark on a culinary mission, diligently sorting into groups to bring home-cooked delights. Forget the fashion fuss; our real anxiety lies in the fate of those precious jamuns. Sharing isn’t about profound ideas but the chaotic potluck of preferences.

The gift exchange unfolds like a cinematic drama. Secret Santa is no secret, and the lucky recipient becomes the chocolate hero armed with a Nestle Milkybar that bluntly reads ‘Eat It.’ Destiny, it seems, is intricately woven into the fabric of white chocolate bars, turning a mere gift into a cosmic sign from the universe.

As the party wraps up, we’re not just a bunch of kids with our teachers; we’re a squad of comedians navigating the absurd Crescentian Chronicles, with ridiculous gift dilemmas and the everlasting sweetness of bad gulab jamuns over bad English paper marks. After all, we are the generation that gave Karan Johar his first hit, leaving behind a trail of laughter, chaos, and sugary goodness.

मराठीचे पुस्तक सहावे ह्यातील हा एक धडा आहे. विसाव्या शतकाच्या सुरवातीला आपले पूर्वज काय नेमके शिकत होते ते ह्या पुस्तकातून थोडे फार कळते. पारतंत्र्यात असलेल्या आपल्या देशात इंग्रजांनी शाळा पद्धती सुरु केली होती. त्या काळी कदाचित मराठी, हिंदी, भूगोल, गणित, शाश्त्र,  इतिहास  असे वेगळे  विषय नसावेत. एकाच पुस्तकात सगळे समाविष्ट केले दिसून येते. त्या एकच  …

The first memory that the trailer of ‘The Disciple’ evoked was ‘Whiplash.’ I thought the movie is a rehash for an Indianized version. But the brand of Chaitanya Tamhane (Court, 2014) was enough for giving it a try. Some parallels do exist. The Guruji of ‘The Disciple’ is a hard taskmaster like Fletcher (Whiplash). Both …

An Eclectic Mix

Watching a movie twice in a theatre is the ultimate endorsement of a movie, and Adha-dhun compelled me to do so, for a simple reason – due to the modern invention of ‘the mobile phone’, my viewing of the piano-dead-body scene was highly interrupted. The scene is probably an iconic scene, in due time it …

I don’t remember who said it, but described it precisely, “Anything you say about India, the opposite is also true”. Thats based on modern experience, and when we …

Trilogies are difficult to watch, mostly by the third film, the events of the first one become hazy. Unless you are fan of the franchise, you are handicapped as you enter the theatre. The Lord of the Rings trilogy was painful (sorry fans!). I mean, the first movie began with a promising scene of a …
