A Hundred Days Of This - Day 74

The stars have misaligned for me today and the entire day was pretty meh. Do not ask me why. I will tell you anyway.

Matinee Show: Krishna and his Leela

Honestly, I think I liked that movie. But the mess that it has created in my head. Ufff! Took down the rabbit hole of commitment issues and boy, was it crazy! Yes, it is complicated, but so is life and the pentalu that keep happening no matter how hard you try to stay in the zen mode. I will remember this movie for life. And of course, Bangalore!

Now comes the best part. 

Second show: Tere Ishq Mein

WHY?!

My two last and dying brain cells after watching this movie screamed so loud that even Mahadev could have heard them. Why romanticise childhood trauma and spin nonsense stories around it. Why, Anand L Rai, WHYYY?! Banaras pe kasam, kabhi maaf nahin kar sakthe hain hum iss wahiyad kahaani ke life. 

Just like my friend said, suddenly Dude and Thelusu Kadha seem like much better movies. I liked their albums at least. 

Moral of the story - do not pick movies when your brain is playing tricks on you. Do. Not. Dot.

And that's Day 74 for you!

A Hundred Days Of This - Day 2

I planned an amazing surprise last night for my husband's birthday only to reveal it myself accidently before he got the chance to discover it. A quintessential 'thaalam vesithini, gollem marachithini' scenario. Sigh. But he didn't complain at all because hey, he got to joke about it all day long!  Today I took inspiration from Monika Gellar and cleaned up (half of) our apartment. Thank you husband (he made me type this, ugh!) We also got to know that going through IKEA website is an interesting activity for a couple and decided that a mandolin slicer is an absolute necessity. It is all fun and games until the man drops the word air fryer in every second sentence he speaks. Do we have space? No. Will he use it regularly? No. Then why the obsession? I do not know.  And also this happened. Cute no? An advice for today before I close this long, fun and eventful day - do no trust Elsamma. IYKYK. And that's Day 2 for you!

A Hundred Days of This - Day 1

It is 7 am here and I can see the sky slowly brightening and the snow glistening. It has been almost 4 months since I moved out of India and unlocked a new level of adventure - figuring things out from the scratch in your 30s. S krämmande men intressant!  Today marks the first day of the Telugu month - Maargasiram, according to our lunar calendar, and it is one of my favourite times of the year. Back at home my mother would cook the kattu pongali with a proportion of ghee, cashews and black pepper that warms up the soul instantly. She would also croon, probably itti mudduladi baaludedavaadu, randomly throughout the day and that song eventually becomes an earworm with me catching myself humming it along with her. She would also play the Bapu and Ramana's version of Thiruppavai on YouTube. My father would go to the Mahalakshmi temple in West Marredpally early in the morning and return with another delicious version of the pongali. Maybe it is not much but these are the things I remem...
