The 'filmy' politics


Some people...most of them, when we say, think that medias like movies, serials, t.v programs and advertisements do not have the ability to influence the society. I just want to dismiss your line of thinking. Even this simple opinion you uphold reveals the politics you stand with. In that case, to say that there is none of it in a creation is a non- existent argument.

The glorification of contents like misogyny, racism, sexism, casteism and rape jokes....later they say that to consider them JUST as movies, serials, trolls, reels or jokes !! Is that even a logic ?!

That is their politics ; their mindset ! And let me say, we can't ignore them just like that since these are the media that have the greatest potential to influence society. 

If a prominent advertisement of a jewellery states that 'pura nirayum penninu ara niraye swarnam' (which literally means, a chamber full of gold for women who is full-fledged to get married upto the most extend) ; it clearly reveals their mindset. 


The study on influence of advertisement on consumers

When even a mere advertisement puts the politics of the person who writes it into the society, its unacceptable that it should not be criticized. 

Criticize what is worth criticising ; be ready to correct any mistakes you see. 
Other than that, don't just turn a blind eye to any mistake just because its your idols or programs.


Atleast we should have the sense to distinguish between right and wrong.

Its not just limited to movies or tv programs. Even the reels videos should be criticized in this regard. For an example, 'make a scene' was a recent trend. If this did not influence the society, so many people would never have been taken up that one 'sensation' ; would not have gone astray, causing people a lot of trouble. 


Every little thing affects the people around. Would be better if you understand that atleast here on !

Wishing you all to have a good day.

Thanking you :)

When attachment hurts

The hardest part of attachment isn’t always losing someone - it’s watching them drift away because of life. Not because they’ve stopped caring, not because they’ve changed as a person, but because circumstances stepped in. Distance, busy days, different paths. Suddenly, the friend who once felt like your everyday comfort now feels like a guest in your life. And it hurts in ways words can’t carry. The calls grow fewer, the replies slower, the laughter shorter. You tell yourself, 'they still care… it’s just life'. But your heart aches anyway, because attachment makes you sensitive. Every small change feels like a loud silence. Yet, even through the ache, you can’t deny how beautiful it is when such friendships first arrive in your life. The ones you never expected - born out of a random moment, a casual conversation, or sheer coincidence - end up carving the deepest spaces in your heart. These friends make the world feel lighter, like you’ve been handed a quiet gift you didn’t ev...

But still..

It is hard, but still… we go on. It is heavy, but still… we carry it. It is uncertain, but still… we hope. It is painful, but still… we love again. Because somehow, deep down, we know - life doesn’t stop for the storms. And maybe that’s what makes it beautiful. It’s not always easy to wake up and try again when everything inside you wants to give up. But you still do - quietly, stubbornly, beautifully. You may not even realize it, but that’s courage. Not the loud, movie kind; the soft, everyday kind that says, "I’ll face today anyway.” It is confusing - when people you cared for drift away, when plans fall apart, when dreams take longer than they should. But still… you find small reasons to smile; a good song, a sunset, a message from someone who remembers. That’s life’s way of saying, “Keep going, you’re not done yet.” It is tiring to be the strong one all the time. To be the listener, the comforter, the one who understands while silently needing to be understood. But still… you ...

The absurdity of suffering

Bad times don't just "feel bad". They feel like suffocation. Like something heavy pressing on your chest that no one else can see. I don't try to make suffering prettier than it is. Pain is real, and when you're in it, advice feels hollow. And yet, something strange happens with time. Some of the deepest insights I've seen in people's lives didn't come wrapped in joy and clarity. They came from heartbreak, from disappointments, from nights that felt endless. There's something absurd about how much we learn from suffering, how pain becomes a kind of teacher no one asked for, but everyone meets eventually. The existential lens does not sugarcoat things. Life has no built-in meaning. We suffer, often without reason, and sometimes we break. But within that absurdity lies freedom; we get to choose how we respond. The suffering may not be meaningful in itself, but what we do with it can be. That's where the human spirit becomes something fierce and b...
