A thrilling treat

After a long time, I simply couldn't help myself from pulling an all-nighter to binge-watch Aarya on Hotstar last night. If you too are planning to start, it is simply not the kind of story you can do an episode a day with.

After Main Hoon Na, it's my personal second of the Former Miss Universe. I had seen much praises for the series from many of her fans. But, I had assumed that maybe it's also because of the immense and insane love people have for Sushmita Sen. 

But, after watching the series myself, I know it was all well earned. I am no expert on reviews, but this one is definitely a gem. The series simply could not have been more Perfect. 

From the storyline to flow,  from amazing characters to actors' realistic act and top it up with the right sprinkle of emotions and unexpected twists till the very end.

Even if there were negative characters you disliked, you still couldn't help but admire the acting. Yet, at the same time, if you are a Sen fan, you simply cannot help yourself from getting overly focussed on Sushmita Sen as Arya alone. 

Throughout the series I literally felt like even,  despite the illegal trade angle, there is so much of real life Sushmita Sen, (her personality and virtuous traits) to Arya. 

She brought in the right blend of strength and vulnerability to the character of a mother, suddenly forced to run an illegal drug business to protect her children.

Additionally, just like her real life Renee and Alisah, even in her reel life, loved her three kids, Vir, Aadi and Aru. Also, the way she says, "Bachcha", it just melts your heart. 

So, in one sentence, I just absolutely loved Sushmita Sen's Hotstar Special, AARYA. But, binge watching the series was also partly my "Sush Fan Girl" movement seeing her acing AARYA.

SPOILER ALERT: 

The last few seconds stealing away an almost happy ending will take your breath away and will also break your heart if you are a super emotional viewer like me who get too trapped in the story. 

P.S.

But, I do have a confession to make before signing off. I have long been a fan of Sushmita Sen, The Mom. I genuinely have high regards for her and immensely admire her real life journey, the way she leads her life, adopted her two girls and have raised them so well. I am simply a fan. 

But, Aarya has definitely made me a fan of Sushmita Sen, the Actress too. I really hope we would be seeing a lot more of her in the coming times. Much Love to Sushmita Ma'am and kudos the entire Aarya Team.

A letter to my happy tear

Sometimes we make things so much bigger in our hearts that it becomes impossible for the events to match our anticipation and even the slightest misdirections to our plans end up grounding them altogether. Exactly an year ago, on October 17, my father-in-law called me and told us that our wedding dates had been fixed. It had been a long-distance courtship but as the luck would have it, we were right there together to celebrate the good news. The next four months were probably the happiest period of my life. Even as I felt lonely without him, I would simply count down our days to the wedding. Soon enough, my joy and excitement became too visible. I don't think I have ever taken care of myself any better. I couldn't wait to get married.  I don't think there was a day I didn't think of him before I ended my day. I simply couldn't wait to be his wife. To his credit, it has all been worth it. Even as we are yet to find our way to a shared roof, Akhil you ...

Remember your champions...

Akhil you know I can't go a long time without writing you love letter but am too lazy to visit a post office..so this one is for you... Everytime I am told I am stupid for choosing my passion, I just wanna look at you, remind myself and know we got this and will always find a way... Every time I feel alone or down, seek validation or feel the need to prove myself or my worth...I may take my time but ultimately every ride has taught me how I have my biggest champion at home. Chahe uss din wo kitchen mein bitaye 12 ghante hon ya hours spent on the most basic blog...even if noone else could see, you were the one cheering me on. Even if you were the one taking care of it all, you always ensured I knew we were a team.  At a time, when I almost felt invisible, u were the one who reminded me I mattered. Listened to my rants and then scolded me when u could not see me stay sad anymore. Even if a part of me was torn, you made sure I finally had fun at a wedding.  When I fel...

Navigating the tug between love & identity

It is so much easier for the world to see what a man contributes but a woman's struggles often remain her silent bouts.  The standards are literally so low for a man, not being abusive makes them amazing. For women, standards are so high that even standing up for themselves becomes a problem. What a woman does is probably only visible to her partner and mother. Because it is the only place we can safely cry and share our perspective.  Recently we went for a dinner where I was told, in a lighter note, how lucky I was to have my husband. I would never say otherwise. I always thank God for him and noone is more aware of what he brings to the table. But, despite being his biggest champion, it suddenly dawned on me how in the seven months of my marriage I have literally seen everyone say the same thing yet I have never heard anyone say he is probably lucky to have me too.  While he remains my biggest champion and sees through every single night of my struggle, tear and strengt...
