where hope lives
breathes among
all community
where harmony
is born free
religion not
held in captivity
mumbaikars
respecting
celebrating
each others
feast
living
amicably
when a muslim
or hindu gets
killed its the
soul of a mother
that bleeds profusely
free laptops is not the
answer to feared
modernity ,,, tears
on the soul of
muzzafarnagar
cry my beloved
country,,,,,
om namo omkhara
om namo ashta vinayaka
om shanti ...om shanti

woh apki
muskurahat
mera bachpana
aur ap ki yad
ek sunehra sapna
ek ruka hua lamha
aur apka mere sar
par hath apka
akhri ashirwad
nahi bhulna hame
ek akhri fariyad

This was shot at Mr Rajesh Khannas house Ashirwad , in happier days when he was alive ..

he was smiling
as he knew once
marziya her sister
shot him too
while coming from
school ..while he
was busy repairing
shoes ..but he
told me later he
found nerjis more
positive less confused
whether he was referring
to marziya or me ..
i felt amused ,...

i know
she does
not understand
at all what i
make her shoot
but it will lie in her
head as a micro chip
for a later date when
understanding comes
en route .. so she shoots
life and lifelessness
senselessness mute
of the drunkard watched
by a lady ..destitute
a thought if you savor
an urban struggle for
survival acute ...innocence
prevails even scenes like
this her soul wont uproot

this child is far too intelligent
besides being photogenically cute

said bappa morya
to nerjis with a smile
he watched her from
different pandals for
a while ..the humility
of a two year old
youngest street
photographer
says her google
profile ,,a twitter
handle a deactivated
facebook account
in self exile ..away
from pokes ..of
people puerile
most of them
with fake accounts
totally juvenile
texting unintelligent
garble from their
mobile ..some
are sane human
rest robotic
shitpile
