SHOOTING THROUGH SOUL
" WHO KILLED MY MIRROR BIRD?"
On a sumber evening was a call from a distant buddy ,up went the receiver like a shot in the heart."Oh Nagesh" and history was rewritten. A sweet gal was to become the changing face of history probably a "Jodha akbar" when Imran met Tina.the first few weeks were the ups and down the bar chart of emotions when cupid struck and life was never the same again. what followed was a hidden phase of rainbows lurked with desire, lies and videotape. The journey was a sea of uneasy murkiness as life progressed building wings of desire and breaking all the sectorials of life.meanwhile" love was all life went missing" and the obvious was to follow suit..........."love dried dead at the feat of life".the return to innocence was not the same again when love:life broke away from life when life took the front seat."Love was always lingering to fly but soul was dying when years passed.the sweet memories of past was the only resting nest where the memories of past were woven,life became a devil and there was no more love.a fight between life and love was on the anvil when imran met life again.............this time as a fashion photographer and critic in a uptown daily.but memories were climbing high up the lacunae when life became too demanding and love was taking a front seat again.the sense of beauty,personification,imagination drove down the countryside and wordsworth was born again in the hearts of imran."Hi said his grey" and memories migrated to beauties of nature.the image of oneness with nature was lost and life and love got mingled.Imran chanced upon many uprising celebrities as his profession demands and his memories tingled him to the murkier world of lies,deaths and betrayal.lonely nights gazing into the sky imran was trying to breakaway from the handcuff and welcome love but memories made him a vagabond .He soon realised his past and love was never the same again.meanwhile his memory met Rima,a suave city girl.he tried to rest his wounded soul into the proximity of unknown world...as he was always cuyrious of.but life had already taken a reserved seat in his journey of life.Imran bore a devilish lover image and went on shooting and penning down memoirs of life and tragedy.soul and heart were now interlinked and matured memories of past got carried away.
..........AND THE SONG WAS NEVER THE SAME AGAIN.....................AND SOUL GAVE HEART A HISTORY.......
Imran won the coveted “Special Lifestyle India Fashion Week " award for fashion photography.

SCARLETT KEELING
WHY THE LAND OF SUN ,SAND AND RHYTHM OF THE SOUL GOING SCARLETT-------- SCARLETT KEELING AFFAIRS------IN GOA AND BEYOND---------------
-----‘WHO STOLE FEMINISM? HOW WOMEN HAVE BETRAYED WOMEN.’ CHRISTINA HOFF SOMMERS, SOCIAL FEMINIST, ACTIVIST.
THE JOURNEY OF SCARLETT IS ITSELF MURRED BY THE BLACKS AND WHITES OF LIFE.IF WE GO DEEP INTO THE PHILOSOPHIES OF THE GIRLS LIFE, HER ROOTS PORTRAY IGNORANCE ,DECEIT, BETRAYAL AND ABUSE .HER LIFE ITSELF PORTRAYS A DEFINITE PICTURE OF INSIGNIFICANT PARENTHOOD AND DILEMMA OF LIFE.LIFE HAS ITSELF KILLED THE MORALESOF THE GAL FROM HER CHILDHOOD, MAYBE SHE, MAYBE HER FATE, IT’S A JOURNEY OF ETERNALMISTAKE WHERE THE BLAME HANGS BLINDFOLDED. IF WE PROPERLY ANALYSE HER ROOTS WE CAN DEFINITELY CONCLUDE THAT HER ROOTS GOES AGAINST HER MORAL PROGRESS IN LIFE.MAYBE THE CULTURAL EFFECT, MAYBE INHERITENCE OF LOSS, SHE PORTRAYS A WOMANS JOURNEY FROM IGNORANCE TO ULTIMATE FREEDOM.“ WAQT AUR TAQDIR NE CHOR GAYA NISHAN “IF WE ANALYSE THE INCIDENT ON A INTERNATIONAL PERSPECTIVE,IT DEFINITELY PORTRAYTS SOME DEFICIT IN GLOBAL POLICIES AND PRACTICES------“ BLURRED GENRES,THE PRICE OF LIBERALIZATION”.1) PROPER FRAMEWORK OF INTERNATIONAL TOURISM.2) NEGATIVE CROSS BORDER CULTURAL INFILTRATION.3) SOCIAL ILLS .4) CROSS BORDER TOURIST ADAPTATIONS.
ONE THING SURELY HITS THE MIND IS “WHY FIONA MACKEOWN AND HER PARTNER THOUGHT OF TAKING SEVEN KIDS ON A 6 MONTH “DREAM TRIP” TO INDIA-AND THEN LEFT ONE OF THEM TO FEND FOR HERSELF? WHY WASN’T SCARLETT IN SCHOOL STUDYING FOR HER GCSES? “
THE JOURNEY OF THE FAMILY TO INDIA NOT ONLY SKETCHES THE UNDERLYING MALICES OF WESTERN CULTURE BUT ALSO PORTRAYS “ HOW WOMEN STILL IN TODAYS GLOBAL CONTEXT ARE STILL NOT TRULY CHAMPIONED.”IS THIS THE FREEDOM OF WOMAN WE ARE TALKING ABOUT? THEN ITS FREEDOM WITH CHAINS AROUND THE HEART. POINTING TO THE FACTS THAT MISS MCKEOWN LEFT THE YOUNG BRITISH GIRL OF 15 YRS OLD TO EXPLORE THE UNKNOWN FRAGRANCES OF GOA WHILE THE REST OF THE FAMILY WAS TRAVELLING IN THE NEIGHBOURING STATE OF KARNATAKA IS INDEED A LOOPHOLE IN PARENTHOOD.
IT IS MY IMPRESSION THAT MOST PEOPLE SEEMED TO ACCEPT THE MURDER AS INEVITABLE—MANY SAID THAT SHE SHOULD HAVE HAD ENOUGH SENSE TO BE WARY OF SUCH CHARACTERS.OTHERS WENT TO THE EXTENT OF ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE FIONA MCKEOWN ,SCARLETTS MOTHER OF CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE.THE POLICE COVER UP IS NOT THAT SHOCKING IN COUNTRY RIDDEN WITH CORRUPT AND LAZY COPS.SO,WHY WAS THE KEELING CASE SO FASCINATING?WHY DID IT HAVE THAT STRANGE FEELING OF BEING FAMILIAR AND DISTANT AT THE SAME TIME?
I BELIEVE THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE SPECIAL PLACE GOA OCCUPIES IN THE PUBLIC IMAGINATION-A LAND WHERE DELICIOUS AND HORRENDOUS THINGS HAPPEN GOA’S CONSTRUCTED ‘OTHERNESS’ IS,IN MANY WAYS,SIMILAR TO BOLLYWOODS ‘FANTASY WORLD’. IT IS THE PLACE WHERE WE GO TO INDULGE OUR ‘OTHER HALF’---THE HALF THAT SEEMS TO ENJOY SEX AND IS NOT NECESSARILY BOUND BY ‘TRADITIONAL INDIAN VALUES’. HOW DOES THE SCARLETT KEELING CASE FIT INTO ALL THIS? I BELIEVE THAT THE CASE IS VERY SIMILAR TO A RAKHI SAWANT CONTROVERSY.WHEN IT HAPPENS,IT IS ALL OVER THE NEWS.SUDDENLY,WE ARE FORCED TO FACE THE DANGER OF THE LICENTIOUSNESS THAT IS LATENT IN OUR QUOTIDIAN HABITS OF INDULGING IN FANTASY WORLDS. WE CONDEMN THE LICENTIOUSNESS OF THE MOMENT AND THEN FORGET ABOUT IT.SUCH THINGS ARE NECESSARY,EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE,TO REMIND US THAT WE DON’T TOLERATE ‘ BAD BEHAVIOR’,THAT THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOR HAPPENS TO EXIST ONLY IN OUR FANTASY WORLDS.
“ DARE TO THINK BEYOND?’---------CONSIDER SOME BARE FACTS------------
1) A MOTHER AND HER PARTNER TAKES SIX OF HER NINE CHILDREN OUT OF THE UK FOR 6 MONTHS TO INDULGE IN A HOLIDAY IN GOA( APPARENTLY THEY WERE BEING HOME EDUCATED BY MS MACKEOWN,’APART FROM SCARLETT WHO WAS FROM COLLEGE).
“HERB IS THE HEALING OF A NATION, ALCOHOL IS THE DESTRUCTION”.--------------BOB MARLEY.
2) THE 15YRS OLD IS ALLOWED TO DRINK IN THE BEACH BARS UNTIL THE EARLY HOURS (SHE WAS IN THE BAR AT 4 AM ON THE FINAL DAY OF HER LIFE), DESPITE IT BEING ILLEGAL(UNDER 18 CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL IS ILLEGAL NOT ONLY IN ABROAD BUT ALSO IN INDIA.3) SHE IS LEFT ON HER OWN BY ‘ THE FAMILY’ , WHO GO TO ANOTHER PART OF INDIA WITHOUT HER (AGAIN, ‘HOME ALONE’ PARENTS HAVE BEEN PROSECUTED IN THE UK WITHIN THE LAST 10 MONTHS.4) THE BEHAVIORAL PHASE OF SCARLETT IN GOATO EXPLORE SUN AND SAND IS QUESTIONABLE.THE HABITS AND RITUALS OF ONESELF PRACTICED IN ONES OWN LAND MAY NOT BE ACCEPTABLE IN A DISTANT TOURIST LOCATION.THIS SURELY WAS DEFICIT IN SCARLETTS BEHAVIOR.“ THINK GLOBAL ACT LOCAL”SURELY PORTRAYS A POSITIVE FACT.5) THE WITNESS,WHO ASKED NOT TO BE IDENTIFIED SAID THAT THE ATTACK TOOK PLACE AFTER SCARLETT LEFT LUI’S BAR ON ANJUMA BEACH HIGH ON A LSD,ECTASY AND COCAINE AT 5 AM ON FEB 18. CONSIDERING THE WITNESS FACTS SCARLETTS BEHAVIOR IN A FOREIGN LAND WITH ILLEGAL DRUGS IS CONDEMNABLE.
6) DAIRY REVELATIONS---- SCARLETT BEGINS HER DIARY AS THE FAMILY PREPARE FOR A 6 MONTH TRIP OF A LIFE TIME TO INDIA AND ENDS SHORTLY BEFORE HER DEATH WITH THE WORDS
“ I AM STUK(SIC)” AND “I WANT TO GO HOME” SHE TALKS OF TAKING HALLUCINOGENIC DRUGS AND HAVING SEX IN BRITAIN AND WITH SOMEONE SHE MET IN GOA.SCARLETTS DIARY SURELY PORTRAYS HER AFFINITY TOWARDS SEX,DRUGS,MUSIC THAT TOO AT A TEENAGE.THE DIARY REVELATION SURELY HIGHLIGHTS A WRONG PAST AND A RISKY FUTURE.7) FIONA MACKEOWN,43 WAS SENTENCED IN 1983 FOR MURDERING A MAN.SHE WAS CHARGED WITH “SERIOUS WOUNDING” AND SERVED ONE YEAR OF A 3 YR SENTENCE.HER REVELATIONS SURELY PORTRAYS HER WRONG PAST.MISS MACKEOWN,A MOTHER OF 9 CHILDREN BY 4 FATHERS,HAS ALSO BEEN VILLIFIED FOR HER”IRRESPONSIBLE DECISION TO LEAVE SCARLETT WITH JULIO LOBO,A TOUR GUIDE,DURING THEIR SIX MONTH HOLIDAY.“THE HORRORS OF PAST CAN SOMETIMES BE A MIRROR TO YOUR FUTURE.”
8) THE COP AFFAIRS AND MEDICAL REPORTS AS ALSO POLITICAL STATEMENTS THOUGH MAY NOT CLEARLY BE THE SOLE AFFIDAVIT IN BRINGING THE TRUE SENSE OF JUSTICE IN A DEMOCRATIC PARAMETER LIKE INDIA BUT PROPER INDEPTH ANALYSIS OF FACTS ABOUT “ GOA’S HIP-HOP CULTURE” AND A FOREIGN TOURISTS IMMATURE PAST MIXED UP WITH IMMATURE ACTIONS TRULY FREED FROM PARENTAL INSTRUCTIONS IN A FOREIGN LAND MAY SURELY QUESTION THE “TRUE ROLE OF GOA IN HER MURDER”.AS PER ALL VIEWS,THE MIXED UP SENSE PREVAILS WHERE GOA STILL REMAINS AS A LAND WHERE MYSTERY AND FREEDOM OF THOUGHTS PREVAIL WHEREAS SCARLETTS ACTIONS ARE OFTEN A CRIMINAL PROVOCATIVE ONE JUST AS A BOLLYWOOD “ITEMGIRL” FLICK.ONE SURELY CANNOTDEAL IN A WAY HE OR SHE PRACTICES IN THEIR OWN LAND WHEN YOU ARE IN A DISTANT TOURIST VENUE.
“MODERN TECHNOLOGY OWES ECOLOGY AN APOLOGY”.9) “THE GROWTH OF THE MAFIA IN THE US HAS BEEN TRACED TO PROHIBITION”.WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU BAN SOMETHING THAT HAS A HIGH DEMAND?THE UNDERWORLD GETS IN,ILLEGAL FINDS ITS WAY AND ULTIMATELY “CRIME”.
IF WE TAKE NETHERLANDS AS AN EXAMPLE,WHERE DRUGS ARE LEGAL AND CANNABIS IS PURCHASED MAINLY IN COFFEE SHOPS THEY HAVE THE LOWEST RATE OF DRUG RELATED DEATH PER MILLION IN EUROPE.
WHILE OUR COPS ARE BUSY BUSTING “BETTING RACKETS” AND “DENS OF VICE” AND“RAVE PARTIES”,DO NOTE THAT I AM NOT ENDORSING EITHER GAMBLING OR PROSTITUTION OR DRUG USE.I AM SIMPLY SPEAKING OUT FOR INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM,AND POINTING OUT THAT THE COSTS OF DENYING SUCH FREEDOM ARE GENERALLY GREATER THAN ANY INTENDED BENEFITS.“ADAPTABILITY IS NOT IMITATION.IT MEANS POWER OF RESISTENCE AND ASSIMILATION”—MAHATMA GANDHI. ON ONE HAND THESE ARE ‘GOOD’ SIGNS OF AN AMERICAN OBSESSION WITH AN INDIVIDUAL RIGHT TO THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS,WHERE WE FIND ‘ALTERNATIVE’ LIFE MEDIA LIKE DEODORANT ADVERTISEMENTS THAT PROMISE THE ATTENTION OF FAWNING WOMEN,ON THE OTHER HAND,THESE SIGNS ALSO POINT TO THE FACT THAT AVOID THE REALITY,THAT MUCH CONTESTED CONCEPT,WHERE PEOPLE ARE BRUTALLY RAPED AND MURDERED,WOMEN CONTINUE TO BE OBJECTIFIED,AND ALL OUR CONDEMNATION OF SUCH “BAD THINGS” ONLY SERVE TO STRENGTHEN OUR DESIRE FOR DELICIOUS FANTASIES,AND STATUS QUO.
“IF PARTICULAR CARE AND ATTENTION IS NOT PAID TO THE LADIES,WE ARE DETERMINED TO FOMENT A REBELLION ,AND WILL NOT HOLD OURSELVES BOUND BY ANY LAWS IN WHICH WE HAVE NO VOICE OR REPRESENTATION.”------------ABIGAIL ADAMS.WE NEED INTERRUPTIONS IN THIS SMOOTH,GLOSSY WORLD OF HYPER-SCHIZOPHRENIA-NOT INTERMISSIONS.WE NEED A POPULACE THAT UNDERSTANDS ‘THE WILLING SUSPENSION OF DISBELIEF’IN THE THEATRE OF OUR LIVES,AND NOT ONE THAT SHIES AWAY FROM THE MULTIPLE PERSONALITY DISORDER LIKE EXISTENCE THAT IS INDIA TODAY.
“IS THIS TRULY DEVELOPMENT? ARE WE LIBERALISED?ARE OUR HUMAN RIGHTS PROPERLY ANSWERED?IS INDIA SHINING?”
I THINK PROPER ANALYSIS OF DATA GIVES A NEGATIVE NOD,STILL IN TODAYS GLOBALISED ARENA,DRUG TRAFFICKING,PROSTITUTION,RAPE,CHILD ABUSE,IS A SERIOUS THREAT AND CAN BE COUNTED AS A “GLOBAL TERRORISM”---A WORLD WAR LIKE CHALLENGE WHICH IF NOT PROPERLY ADDRESSED MAY SEE MANY INNOCENT BUT WRONGED BY FATE SCARLETTS DIEING YOUNG.HERE,INDIA OR GOA HAS LITTLE TO SAY AS GLOBAL TERRORISM OF ILLEGAL MOBILITY PARALYSES EVEN GANDHIS SCHOOL OF THOUGHT.
“IF GOD HAD BEEN A LIBERAL,WE WOULDN’T HAVE HAD THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.WE DID HAVE HAD THE TEN SUGGESTIONS.”

PUFF DADDY
HOLY SMOKE………..ONE PUFF TO LIBERTY……..
“CAN I HAVE A PUFF?” SMOKING IS A GLOBAL PHENOMENON WHICH SURELY BREAKS THE BARRIER OF THE RICH AND THE POOR.ITS SURELY A CLASSIC EXAMPLE OF THE THOUGHTS OF KENICHI OHMAE AS PORTRAYED IN HIS FAMOUS BOOK “BORDERLESS WORLD”.IT CROSSES THE DOMAIN OF SEX,RELIGION,LOCATION.FROM THE ANCIENT TIMES TILL DATE SOCIETAL PYRAMID HAS BOWED DOWN TO SMOKING .BUT WHY?MANY SAY THE NICOTINE KICKS HARD….SOME SAY ITS STATUS QUO…..SOME SAY ITZ A STRESS RELIEVER…SOME SAY IT’S THE OPTION FOR BEATING SLEEP……DO YOU COMPLY?EXPERTS SAY SMOKING THOUGH IF SURELY COMPLIES WITH FEWER OF THE ABOVE SURELY IS HOLY TO THE SOUL OF THE POOR THOUGHTS WHO WELCOME MANY CRITICAL AILMENTS ,THUS IS DISEASES HOLY BIBLE.VISUALISE UP THE HILL SAINTS SMOKING RAW TOBACCO TO THE CORPORATE ENIGMA SMOKING AWAY HAPPILY ON “MARLBORO” TO THE POWER HOUSES OF THE COUNTRY.SUCH A NOTION PENETRATES DEEP INTO THE SOCIETY WHERE UNDEREDGE SMOKING IS OFTEN EXPLOITED AND GOVT NOTICES OF RESTRICTION FAILS.IN SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES THE STATUTARY WARNING “CIGARETTE SMOKING IS INJURIOUS TO HEALTH” LEAVES A PALE FACE.ADDING TO THE SAME,THE CROSS BORDER INFILTRATION OF CHEAPER BRANDS HAS ESCALATED THE MENACE BY THE DISTRIBUTION OF IMPURE FORM OF TOBACCO.CAN ONE BELIEVE A LARGE CHUNCK OF GOVT REVENUE IS ABSORBED FROM CIGARETTE INDUSTRY?FACT IS HEALTH IS BEING COMPROMISED FOR PUBLIC WEALTH.THOUGH NICOTINE IN FILTERED VARIETIES AND ANTI NICOTINE BRANDS HAS BEEN TESTED BUT THE ESSENCE OF PURE TOBACCO STILL KICKS “ROCK ND ROLL” IN THE MINDS OF MANY .NOT ONLY THAT SMOKING HAS AGGRAVATED THE DIALECT OF OTHER ADDICTION BY FOSTERING ALCOHOL,DRUGS,AND OTHER PSYCHOTROPHIC DRUGS.
ITS SURELY A DIFFICULT PHENOMENON TO AVOID THE HOLY PUFF BUT PEOPLE SHOULD REALISE THE FACT OF ITS EFFECTS.THAT IS POSSIBLE WHEN PROPER HIGHLIGHTS OF SMOKING IS CHANNELISED AND RESTRICTIVE SMOKING IS HONOURED .ANY FORM OF ADDICTION IS A PENETRATION WHICH IS KILLING.SO PEOPLE AWARENESS AND ALTERNATIVE SHOULD BE APPLIED.BUT NOWADAYS PEOPLE ARE MORE AWARE ,THANX TO GOVT AWARENESS AS THE NOTION OF A FILMY HERO SMOKING AWAY HAS FAILED TO LEAVE FOOTPRINTS.MORE PROACTIVE STEPS NEED TO BE ENACTED TO MAKE SMOKING A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE.OTHERWISE THE HOLY SMOKE MAY BRING IN CARCINOGENIC MENACES TO SOCIETY.

CREATIVITY
IS RELATING UNRELATED THINKS CREATIVITY -----------A SECOND THOUGHT……….
THE STATUE OF LIBERTY,THE EIFFEL TOWER,THE TAJ MAHAL…….ALL OF THEM WERE CREATED TWICE.YES,TWICE---FOR THE FIRST TIME,IN THE MINDS OF MEN WHO CREATED THEM.
IDEAS,IMAGINATION ARE THE PASSIONATE BELIEVES CERTAINLY HUMAN NATURE EMBOLISHES TO MANIFEST CREATIVITY.SO WHAT WAS THE DRIVING FORCE TO CREATE,INNOVATE THAT NEVER EXISTED?PASSION IS SURELY ONE OF THE THINGS BUT HUMAN CONVICTIONS AND TRUST IN IDEAS ARE CERTAINLY ONE OF THE PREREQUISITES TO FOSTERED CREATIVITY.
IF WE WERE TO DEFINE CREATIVITY,MERE BOOKISH DOMAIN WOULD CORRUPT THE ESSENCE OF CREATION.THE WORLD ITSELF IS A RESOURCE TO INNOVATIVE CREATION WHERE PHYSICAL ACTIONS AND SPONTANEITY OF THOUGHTS ARE SELDOM LINKED TO THE RIVER AND ITS TRIBUTARIES.”LET THE THOUGHT PROCESS FLOW LIKE A RIVER” INTO THE “RESOURCES OF THE EARTH”.PHYSICAL ACTIONS,MANIFESTATIONS,DISCIPLINE AND ONENESS WITH NATURE IS ESSENTIAL TO CREATIVE WORK.
LET US LOOK AT OUR OWN COMMON MAN----R K LAXMAN….”YOU SAID IT” DEFINITELY VENTS OUT THE FEELINGS OF THE DAILY INDIAN REACTION TO GOVERANCE.THEN”IS HE A HERO”…A UNSUNG HERO.”HOW HE IS AN ICON IN THE WORLD OF SATIRE AND CARICATURES?IS HE A POPULAR FIGURE IN THE SOCIETY?” NO.”WAS HE A FAMOUS CARTOON CHARACTER WHEN LAXMAN ADOPTED HIM?NO.THE SECRET LIES IN HIS ABILITY TO RELATE THE BASICS OF THE SOCIETY-THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE IN A LUCID HUMAN FORM TO LET THE DAILY READER RELATE TO.IN THIS PURSUIT HE CREATED ONE OF THE MOST ACCLAIMED CARTOON SERIES IN THE WORLD.
WHY DID PRINCESS DI COMPARE HER LIFE TO THE HOLLYWOOD STUDIO SYSTEM?
HOW DO YOU MAKE A CONDOM SEXY?
WHY DID THE EMPEROR LOSE HIS CLOTHES IN THE PLAY TUGHLAQ?
CAN A TRAMP BE A PERFECT GENTLEMAN?
HOW DID A HOUSE AGENCY BECOME A CREATIVE HOTBED?

HERE THE CREATIVITY IS A LEARNING PROCESS WHERE HE HIMSELKF IS THE CREATOR AND PUPIL,LEARNING FROM THE ENVIRONMENT,SOCIETY,EVERYDAY HAPPENINGS WHICH TAKE THE FORM OF FEELINGS AND ULTIMATELY VENT TO CREATION.

I have trusted to my intuition to find the subjects, and I have written intuitively. I have an idea when I start, I have a shape; but I will fully understand what I have written only after some years.
THE STATUE OF LIBERTY,THE EIFFEL TOWER,THE TAJ MAHAL…….ALL OF THEM WERE CREATED TWICE.YES,TWICE---FOR THE FIRST TIME,IN THE MINDS OF MEN WHO CREATED THEM.
IDEAS,IMAGINATION ARE THE PASSIONATE BELIEVES CERTAINLY HUMAN NATURE EMBOLISHES TO MANIFEST CREATIVITY.SO WHAT WAS THE DRIVING FORCE TO CREATE,INNOVATE THAT NEVER EXISTED?PASSION IS SURELY ONE OF THE THINGS BUT HUMAN CONVICTIONS AND TRUST IN IDEAS ARE CERTAINLY ONE OF THE PREREQUISITES TO FOSTERED CREATIVITY.
IF WE WERE TO DEFINE CREATIVITY,MERE BOOKISH DOMAIN WOULD CORRUPT THE ESSENCE OF CREATION.THE WORLD ITSELF IS A RESOURCE TO INNOVATIVE CREATION WHERE PHYSICAL ACTIONS AND SPONTANEITY OF THOUGHTS ARE SELDOM LINKED TO THE RIVER AND ITS TRIBUTARIES.”LET THE THOUGHT PROCESS FLOW LIKE A RIVER” INTO THE “RESOURCES OF THE EARTH”.PHYSICAL ACTIONS,MANIFESTATIONS,DISCIPLINE AND ONENESS WITH NATURE IS ESSENTIAL TO CREATIVE WORK.
LET US LOOK AT OUR OWN COMMON MAN----R K LAXMAN….”YOU SAID IT” DEFINITELY VENTS OUT THE FEELINGS OF THE DAILY INDIAN REACTION TO GOVERANCE.THEN”IS HE A HERO”…A UNSUNG HERO.”HOW HE IS AN ICON IN THE WORLD OF SATIRE AND CARICATURES?IS HE A POPULAR FIGURE IN THE SOCIETY?” NO.”WAS HE A FAMOUS CARTOON CHARACTER WHEN LAXMAN ADOPTED HIM?NO.THE SECRET LIES IN HIS ABILITY TO RELATE THE BASICS OF THE SOCIETY-THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE IN A LUCID HUMAN FORM TO LET THE DAILY READER RELATE TO.IN THIS PURSUIT HE CREATED ONE OF THE MOST ACCLAIMED CARTOON SERIES IN THE WORLD.
WHY DID PRINCESS DI COMPARE HER LIFE TO THE HOLLYWOOD STUDIO SYSTEM?
HOW DO YOU MAKE A CONDOM SEXY?
WHY DID THE EMPEROR LOSE HIS CLOTHES IN THE PLAY TUGHLAQ?
CAN A TRAMP BE A PERFECT GENTLEMAN?
HOW DID A HOUSE AGENCY BECOME A CREATIVE HOTBED?
HOW CAN CORPORATES PUT BACK INTO SOCIETY A LITTLE OF WHAT THEY TAKE OUT FROM IT?
CAN YOU FIND THE COMMON THREAD IN IT?
