The Moriarty in me



Why is it
That our darker sides always remain so well organized?
That the most creative aspects of my thoughts, are liberated from me, when I think evil?
That I believe only the negativity in me, can one day reach the shades of genius?

What makes the perfect villain?
The fact that no one recognizes him to be one, or that only his actions influence others and not his personality?

Is it the hope of success or the fear of failure that helps mankind attain perfection?

Why do I think that fear is creating a perfect criminal in me (one that has not even been questioned once till date)?

If Creation is greater than destruction, why aren't the perfect evil creators considered much more intelligent than its destroyers?

who made dark knight,dhoom watchable?

Why do I always like the amitabhs, but love the gabber singhs?
Is it because the Moriartys, the jokers have to be nothing short of perfect every time and there is no scope for error ?

But suddenly, the invigilator who was also dozing, woke me up from these random questions and said "final year,place aita nu koluppa.. Olunga exam eludu"…

The Moriarty(perfection) in me was killed by the invigilator(timidity).. Now I have further more reason to believe as a fact that the professor was much greater than holmes..

Are the Watsons listening?

Idols r for the idle


2nd Jan 2004- @sydney- One of the greatest knocks in world cricket was being scripted by the genius... Probably it was extra special because the opponent was steve bucknor rather than Australia, or may be as it was steve waugh’s farewell test that made it better...I was a 10th std. student and like a billion Indians, a proud sachinist.. By praying to every god ever created by man, that the dreadful finger never went up, or the elusive edge never took place..I made sure that sachin remained not out till the end.

25th jan 2010- @dhaka-By no means this one can be termed to be sachin’s greatest…maybe a battered Bangladeshi didn’t help the cause


I am not here to write a testimonial about sachin, (probably the image is misleading) that would be done by the com-box rock star a million times better.Sarcasm and histrionics apart. I am here to reason…


Despite the clear difference(not the 97 runs) in the greatness of the knocks. I enjoyed the latter better… It’s my mindset that has changed and given me the joy that I missed during the Sydney epic..

6 years back I had idolized sachin. Yes he was right there among the vishnu’s and shiva’s..But the only thing I could manage to enjoy was sachin’s presentation speech, beacause I was either fasting or was busy praying during his knocks…It was like reading the newspaper line by line, after missing Usain bolt’s Olympic magic..Useless..


Now I am just a loyal fan of the great man’s cricket and personality..I could enjoy the elegance of the straight drive live, rather than in the super 4s package…


How did this change occur?

Intellectual growth and probably independent thinking.. As Indians we idolize celebrities and that has been the main cause of our problems in politics and development(read as MGR, MK, Chiru etc)


Yeah now, I love Rahamn, that doesn’t mean that I should enjoy his music by default…Except Fiqrana, blue’s music was a disappointment…I still love tiger woods’s golf,and don’t give a damn about his personal life, that’s because I hadn’t idolized him..


Life is much easy but importantly much more joyful now… Now my policy is not to idolize anyone except my own…So now, sachin is not my idol, but my brother is….You don't dare to reason among your own



Is the romantic dying or is the realist growing up….)))
