Be tolerant towards art……

Art is something related to creativity, art is the skill where one uses his skill to devise something new, something creative. Art is meant to innovate, to show the world something new, art is something which have no dimensions. It is true that not everyone is an art lover, neither everyone has the capacity to tolerate art forms, be it paintings, writings, movies, music or any other form.

The recent hype towards the movie ‘PK’ and Aamir Khan portraying Hindu traditions and god men as fake and useless is utter disgust. What I believe that Aamir Khan is an artist, the writer who wrote, Abhijat Joshi, is an artist, and an artist is meant to show whatever he feels like. If someone is not tolerant towards his/her idea, be kind enough either to ignore it or be silent enough not to let him/her feel bad about his art or creativity. An artist does a lot of hard work to present the world something new, in a new way, which the world is unable to comprehend with normal eyes. Anything that is happening in this world, has a different meaning in the eyes of an artist. What may be good in your eyes might mean something else for an artist. This also means that he/she has a different view to present the same in a way which you might never have thought.

As a human too, everyone has one basic right, the right to express. And art today, has a strong need to have this basic right because it is seen in the modern times that people have turned out to be more orthodox than before. Anything which hurt religion, or their beliefs is sure to be face the brunt of the crowd.

Like Boman Irani said in the movie, agar is desh mein rehna hai to, avoid everything about religion…

Nahi to bum pe trishul padega….

Then why do we say that we provide everyone the right to express. Everyone is free to express, if you don’t feel that someone art is in line with your thinking be humble enough to oppose in a non-violent and humble way than to abuse the artist or the art. We have seen in the past too how MF Hussein had to face the brunt of public or Jumpa Lahari for that case. But think once, are we really tolerant, which we claim to be? Are we really modern, or liberal, which we claim to be???

Either you can be modern, or you can be closed ended…. The choice is yours… If you cannot tolerate something which is someone’s creation, then never ever joke about any other religion, too….

To work as per my passion and not profession:

The greatest fear of anyone around us, is of being not able to grab a respectable position in this society. As it was said in a famous movie that if we do not score good marks, we will not be able to grab a good grad college, and if there is not a good grad college with good marks, there would be no placement, no placement means no job, no job means no salary and no salary means no marriage. This means our society at large, is moving just to prove themselves on just a single front, i.e. to prove that they are worth marrying?? Or for that case, to grab a job which pays them handsomely. Is it the only thing left in our lives, to get money and family and get settled? What about our own aspirations? Each one of us, during our development stage, begin to develop some hobbies, some passions which we feel connected to. Some are too mainstream and some might even not be known to anyone accept us. If we stick to one of our passion, we develop a skill related to it. It may be singing,...

How corporate professionalism helped me in learning the art of self-appreciation?

It’s been a long while that I wrote something for myself. Though being a full-time content writer, busy in playing with words all day long, who people think of as a word-wizard- never short of something to write, I have, of late, fell short of words to define what I feel about my passion. I started off as a content writer & still, I am that- it’s not that my passion has faded, it is still strong and growing every day, still I sometimes feel I am not doing much for myself. Writing every day for brands and companies- fuelling their aspirations to grow more and more through advertisements, e-mailers, marketing collaterals, etc., I have somehow felt guilty of not helping myself much with my growth journey. But is it my fault… or is it just situational? I am not the type who shifts the blame to professional or personal condition, so I take it upon myself for my mistake. I have not been much serious about my journey, passion and efforts. But through my realization, I came up wit...

Tujhe paa hi lia hai ab to zahir bhi kar du mai ki, Pyaar teri rooh se hai tere jism se nahi, Saath mujhe tera aks chahiye harpal, Andero mein bhi saath tu mere chal ab chal... ^_^@®$^_^
