Their hands brushed against each other, evoking memories of earlier times. The sea, with its enormous waves, stirred up thoughts of the past. They used to spend long, lazy evenings at this very spot, lost in conversation for hours. However, the weight of their responsibilities gradually diminished these outings until, one day, they came to a complete stop. They didn’t even realise when it happened; it just did. But today, with their children away at a picnic, they finally had a chance to be alone together after more than a decade, even if only for a few hours. This was their moment, an opportunity to focus on nothing but each other. This post is a part of  BlogchatterA2Z Challenge 2026

Cry Baby The cry of a baby, I can hear, Is it hungry? Or, it's just fear? Should I just hear, or go near? My thoughts are all over, but I get clear. I search for the baby, here and there, There is no baby, only a chair, Again. I look for the baby, it is nowhere. What about the cry? Coming from where? Soon I see from behind the toy deer, A cute, tiny, pink face appear The cry has been coming from here, It's just a baby doll, I am fooled my dear!!

The junction was busy; it was peak time, and most commuters were on their way to work. In the middle of the junction stood a lamppost—fancy and shorter than usual, with a Victorian lampshade. No one seemed to notice as a woman walked toward it. She approached at a fatigued pace, her eyes vacant, and her long dupatta flowing in the wind. When she reached the lamppost, she took off her dupatta and swung it around the post. It took her three attempts to form a noose. A few passersby noticed her and gathered around, while most ignored the scene and continued on their way, preoccupied with their busy schedules. The onlookers pulled out their phones to record the unfolding drama; after all, drama means views. Oblivious to her surroundings, she tightened the noose around her throat, as if no one else existed. Slowly but steadily, she pulled on the end of the dupatta. Her body began to rise, her eyes bulging and bloodshot, with her tongue hanging from the corner of her mouth. The sounds of cam...

Well, well, I am back with another watchlist barometer. And here are 2 under my scanner today, since I recently watched them. They are Scarpetta and Anniversary. April is going to be challenging for me, as my daughter is starting secondary school now, with many new subjects being introduced, so I will be light on writing and will take a month off from my movie/web series and musical posts. So, I thought of writing the last entertainment post for March today- what better than an entertainment-filled Sunday?  Scarpetta ( Web Series) I had revealed a bit about the series in my last post . But the context was entirely different from that of a review. Today, however, I will share my views on it. First of all, why did I choose to watch it? Well, simple answer: Nicole Kidman, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Simon Baker (after such a long time)!!  And I started enjoying it, initially, although Kidman's never-smiling, upright, too-perfect-to-be-true character was a bit much for me to take. But a...

I had completed watching the first season of Scarpetta. Honestly, at first, I was stepping out of my comfort zone (not enjoying family drama in a twisted tale of a serial killer hunt), and somehow started liking the built-in family chaos around Dr Scarpetta. But later on, when that drama became the whole point, and the search was reduced to a sudden revelation by the time we were almost exhausted about who was getting duped, who was in a relationship, and who was doing what in that very family, I certainly got disappointed. (My thought: absolutely. I heard people praising it.) The whole point of my lament is an interesting but somewhat scary concept that was a major highlight of the Family Drama in the thriller web series on Prime. Dr Scarpetta's ( played convincingly by Nicole Kidman) niece, the nerdy, brilliant geek Lucy,  who had lost her wife, Janet, had invented an AI version of the latter to be with her 24/7.  Oh no, no, I ain't giving away more, as of now. I am starting...

It's hard for me to believe it's already been a year since I finished Blogchatter A 2 Z 2025. Last year, I accomplished the seemingly impossible by reviewing Bengali movies from A 2 Z. The biggest challenge? The letters F, Q, W, X, Y, and, of course, Z. However, thanks to the incredible world of Bangla Movies—often referred to as Tollywood—and the talented Bengali filmmakers, they created films that corresponded to all 26 letters of the alphabet. That's how my A 2 Z Challenge of 2025 was a success.  Now that I'm preparing for my A2Z journey in 2026, I've been doing a lot of thinking. I initially considered writing 26 poems, one for each day, but felt that might be a cliché. Then, I realised I want to try something I've been practising for a while, thanks to the platform Penmancy. Instead of stating what I'm writing about, I plan to show it—after all, the saying goes, "Show, Don't Tell," and I won't be telling.  Here's my plan: I will ch...
