Weekend Pack #1: Ludo : A Metaphor of Life

I really appreciate Anurag Basu to create a movie full of different shades of lives and relationships. The way LUDO uses colors to represent various aspects of life is beyond imagination. The whole movie runs among 4 different stories, color-coded according to their shade of emotions. All stories are different but linked. Just like each ludo board house is represented by a different color, but collide in their own journey. 

The movie begins with the story of Aditya Roy Kapoor and Sanya Malhotra as Akash and Shruti. The Yellow House represents their story associated with creativity, happiness, and living a life full of joy.

Whereas the Red House shows the story of Abhishek Bachchan as Bittu and Mini. Red color represents the compatibility of Love and Anger. The father-like relationship between Bittu and Mini depicts the fact of the co-existence of two opposite characteristics. Bittu is angry with his current life, but he finds happiness with Mini. We can feel the love of a father for a child.

The Blue colored world, where we find an interesting and complicated life story of two persons, Sheeja and Rahul. The way they began to love each other without even communicating properly. Also, we see many more similarities in this couple as both were oppressed by various factors in their life. Here blue color represents the purity and reliability between them even though they don't share a common language.

In the fourth timeline, our favorite Rajkumar Rao won everyone's heart. He does everything for his crush, who is already married. Despite knowing that he has no chance with her, he helps Pinky in every situation in this Green shaded universe. His love for Pinky and the steps of getting ruined in love represents a green-colored world with envy and the craze for his love.

Finally, our loved Pankaj Tripathi, aka Sattu. The dice of the game, and the decision-maker of each story. His Qismat ki Hawa turns Kabhi up, Kabhi down, but every up and down in his life affects all four timelines. 

Overall, all stories individually were also great, but LUDO turns into an excellent watch when all timelines come together. The movie perfectly defines the ludo game. The complexity of the movie shows the amazing writing and direction of the movie.

Also, Thank you to the LUDO movie to bring back the track Ooo Beta Ji in our lives in its original form.

My First Blog

This is what I look like. Pic taken at Rashtrapati Bhavan (Red eyes don't mean I smoke weed, it is because of camera effect.😛) First of all, I would like to tell you why I am here. In a world full of fake imaginations and envy, I am here to get some relief from the daily boring routine. It is enough to tell the reason of my such life is that I am an engineering student at IIT Delhi. Currently, I am at Jaipur, away from the daily world, and writing my first blog. It is not the first time when I am writing something. I used to write on Quora, but it used to be primarily on a particular topic. What should we write in our very first blog? A lot of people introduce themselves and discuss their daily life routines. Without trying anything different, let's begin. Hi everyone!!!👋 I am Manoj😊 with roots at Kuchaman City, Rajasthan, in western India. I matriculated from ABN sr. Sec. School in 2015 and passed the 12th standard from Navjeevan sr. Sec. School Sikar in 2017. (...

Love Me like You Do

30th January 2020, 2:38AM Sitting in the central library of IIT Delhi, a quiz is scheduled for tomorrow in Programming Languages. Although I haven't studied anything yet, still I couldn't concentrate on my mind. Today I found a cool song  "Love Me Like You Do"  when it buzzed in someone's mobile. It affected me so much as later I listened to this song, and tried to get the lyrics. After humming this song again and again, now I learned some lines. Here is my broken lyrics: You're the light, you're the night You're the color of my blood You're the cure, you're the pain You're the only thing I wanna touch Never knew that it could mean so much, so much You're the fear, I don't care 'Cause I've never been so high Follow me through the dark Let me take you past our satellites You can see the world you brought to life, to life So love me like you do, lo-lo-love me like you do Love me like you do, lo-lo-love me like you d...

Good Byee 2019

So it is the year ending time of 2019 so I am summarizing this year in a poem. Zindagi ka ek aur varsh kam ho chala, kuchh purani yaadien peechhe chhorh chala.. kuch khwaahishein dil me rah jati hai, kuch bin mange rah jati hai.. kuch chhorh kar chale jate hai, kuch naye judenge iss safar mein.. kuch mujhse bahot khafa hai, kuch mujhse bahot khush hai.. kuch mujhe mil ke bhul gye, kuch mujhe aaj bhi yaad krte hai.. kuch sayad anjaan hai, kuch bahot pareshaan hai.. kuch ko mera intzaar hai,  kuch ka mujhe intzaar hai.. kuch shi hai, kuch galat bhi hai.. kuch galati ho to maaf kijiye, kuch achha lge to yaad kijiye..   Let's start in 2020 with a new initiative by revising our goals, thinking about all the mistakes and try to improve all those. Wish you all a prosperous   Happy New Year
