3000 sq Feet Reverie



Prolific – the term seconds the opulent Human crave like no one does ! Juggling both the terms sounds a bit of sarcastic though but I am OK with that !

For More you have , more you want ; More you want , more you crave !

Yup ! That’s how we are - Just as simple as that.

Gone are the days when - Roti , Kapda aur Makaan used to be the toast of life – it’s Sandwitch( or a Burger) , Branded wears and Villas now just in the same order , only a bit refined probably .

However ,It’s definitely the Makaan that might spin a wheel in your mind when we speak in monetary terms but what we need – we just need ! Lets be more formal and bit classy to match with the Jet-age – it’s Flat or a Villa ( if you are filthy rich , of course!) .

Ever since , we stepped onto the Corporate jungle to make both ends meet , the money has just blew little more sophisticated air into the desires. Starting with a 2-wheeler and moving on to 4  , the next target is the unavoidable and an edifice reach – a House !

The Middle class sophomore just eats and sleeps now singing for the proverbial possession to keep his head under a roof – a solid one.
1, 2 , 3 BHKs – doesn’t they sound so familiar ? I am pretty sure they do.
The only trembling part in the whole picturesque frame is the Sky-rocketing prices.
The ever surmounting sky-high prices have no lessened the Indian Middle Class’s   resolution to sleep under a beautiful roof with plenty of rooms to ply on. Drilling a hole in the pocket might sound scary but then who cares ? We are talking about one of the basic Human needs and fetching it - is nowhere near a Sin.

But then we are definitely working on it .

We know how to get things straight and done and Be Happy , for sure !

Tu, Tum aur Aap


When You Juggle the Letters and make them Words , You hold all the Relationships , in surplus, onto them !

Prominently enough , we are conditioned to , from childhood of  keeping people in high esteem and appropriate with Pronouns – Grammatical in literal sense but they hold so much of sense from the closeness to effortlessness in our feelings !

Aap , Tum and Tu –  these Relation-bearers  have so profoundly been deep-rooted , that sometimes we are noticeably effortless while using them . Possibly it shows the direct thread of love , care , respect and certain other surreal human sensitivities that impact uttering them.

Sometimes I used to ponder over the whereabouts - why , when , how , where’s of these simple but powerful relationship holders and , more often than not ,been left in lurch , clueless !

The proximity that “Tu” brings , is at par with “Aap” sometimes . And so as “Tum” . Whereas, at times they bring those inexplicable gigantic differences .The proverbial discrimination had always been Un-Surmountable  for me. There are people whom you refer as Aap , Tu or Tum and quite baffling at times why we do so for we are not conditioned to talk so – it’s just a fact that we just do – and Interestingly it fetches us a comfort !

Life is queer and a nonplus-platter sometimes where  the options leave us bewildered and eye-popping ! I have never understood why so but ……

P.S. – I have met people who are so fortunate to be crystal clear about such aspects though !
