Dream-line.

What are dreams? Famous personalities bombard us with different definitions. But have you ever thought what exactly dreams are? 

See, our dreams are related with the way we live, breath and behave in front of the society. I have seen so many people struggling to relate reality with a dream. Our needs are dressed up as dreams. Imagine dreams as a colorful wrapping paper. We use this paper to cover up realities. For example; in reality, we know that we need a house to settle down. It is very dry if it’s just think in that way. We wrap that idea with a colorful wrapping paper, that is 'dream' and make it more appealing. That same dry reality is now more motivating and we will work hard to achieve those “dreams”. Dreams will age with you. It will change according to the experience that a person had. Each individual will have different dreams as they move forward with life. It will change according to the current situation you are going through. The things you dream when you are fifteen won't be the things you dream when you are a thirty years old. Let’s travel through my timeline of dreams

When I was studying in 5th standard, my biggest dream was to become a cricketer. My friends used to tease me when I tell them about my dream. They used to hit me with the same old “have you ever seen a fat cricketer”. I hit them back with, “I’ll be the first one”.


Time flew; now I’m studying in 8th standard. It was a year that I can never forget. I got into the world of music. I started to listen. I found the drummer inside me. At that time, my biggest dream was to accompany the Mozart of Madras, A R Rahman as his live drummer. Another small dream that I had, was to purchase a drum kit. I waited for two years and my parents bought me my first ever drum kit. A Mapex Voyager. A kit, which I considered as  the finest drum kit in the budget line-up of Mapex. She is my baby. She’s still with me.


My dream for the past two years is to buy back my first motorcycle. It’s a 2005 Hero Honda Glamour. I started regretting my decision of selling it from the day I sold it. 

And the most important dream that I have like every other middle-class guy is to gift my parents a beautiful house.
And you got it right; my dream house will have at least 4 garages. I will fill every one of them with my vehicles. Mostly motorcycles though. Can’t wait to get a job and work hard to achieve my dreams.

IFFK Experience.

I got to know about the idea of volunteering for IFFK from my cousin Goutham. He was a part of 22 nd IFFK. Due to some personal issues, I was unable to participate in the 22 nd and 23 rd film festival. I thoroughly decided that I will join them on the 24 th edition. And god’s grace, it happened. The process started with sending resume to the IFFK mail and attending the interview. I did fairly good on the interview. I was appointed for hotel duty. My mind was filled with questions and excitement. At one side, I was excited as heck to work with Goutham,Vaishak, and Amal, my close friends. I only knew them as my best buddies, but never as my colleagues. That experience was damn good. IFFK seemed like a big puzzle at first. I solved it step-by-step. I was aware of that volunteers are not allowed to watch films. I accepted the fact and made my decision. And it was a fine one.     I am a sucker for meeting new people and mingling with total strangers. That aspect of my

Crispy Outside, Fluffy Inside.

The ‘Potti Hotel’ culture is very famous in Thiruvananthapuram. These hotels are usually found near temples. Malayalees all over the world would love to have a delicious meal from a pure vegetarian ‘Potti Hotel’ after a blissful visit to temple. In Trivandrum, there are two famous eateries that are known for the quality and taste they provide. If you are a Trivian, you should be knowing of these famous names. ‘Venkadesha Bhavan’ and ‘Balaji Cafe’. See, speaking as a ‘TamBhram’ from Trivandrum, the word Karavada will make me drool all over the place. The two eateries that I mentioned, makes the best Karavadas in town. As an ardent fan and a regular customer of both of them, I am happy to share my experience. The Karavada from Balaji Cafe is a little bit small in size compared to the ones from Venkadesha Bhavan. The sides for this evening snack are Sambar and Chutney. Though both of these eateries provide good quality sides, Venkadesha Bhavan’s sambar and chutney is my personal f

ഓർമ്മ പാച്ചിലിൽ പാച്ചല്ലൂർ തൂക്കം.

വല്യച്ഛനും, വല്യച്ഛൻ പകർത്തുന്ന ചിത്രങ്ങളും എന്റെ ജീവിതത്തിൽ നിന്നും ഒരിക്കലും പറിച്ചുമാറ്റാൻ പറ്റാത്ത ഒന്നാണ്. അക്കൂട്ടത്തിൽ പെടുന്ന ചിത്രങ്ങളിൽ നിന്നും മാത്രം എനിക്ക് ഓർമ്മയുള്ള ഒരു സ്ഥലമാണ് പാച്ചല്ലൂർ. വല്യച്ഛൻ തന്റെ  പെന്റാക്സ് ക്യാമറയിൽ പകർത്തിയ ചിത്രങ്ങളാണ് എൻറെ മനസ്സിൽ പതിഞ്ഞിരിക്കുന്നത്.
