Jumanji - Welcome to the Jungle

I watched Jumanji last Saturday. I know I'm late, but it's one of the best movies that I've watched ever! It had everything- humor, adventure, typically everything I'd like to watch about. The movie is about a video game, and when kids play it, they would actually turn into their selected avatars and they have to survive in order to finish the game. And beware, you've got only three chances!

It all started with young Spencer and his friends (I don't remember their names) getting detention for various reasons. They were supposed to unstaple magazines for recycling, but instead, they found a video game in a donation box and they decided to play it. They chose their characters, and when the game started, they were transported into the game world! Their mission was to restore the magic jewel in the jaguar's eye which was taken by an evil character. The whole adventure is based on the riddles they decode. And the riddle involving the missing piece, was actually the fifth character Alex Vreeke, who was stuck in the game for 20 years!

I enjoyed Dr. Mouse's humor throughout the film. Everyone were given a character that was totally different from their high school counterpart. It's a perfect movie to watch before your exams start. Some sources say there's going to be a part 3. If that's true, I can't wait for it!

And if that video game ever exists, I'd love to play it too!

Dude - Review

TL;DR - A Rare mainstream surprise with its heart in the right place. To begin with, I didn't expect any movie to make it to my blog this year, especially Dude. I was skeptical even while booking the tickets, and the pessimism only grew when a couple of close friends said they didn’t like it. For context: I didn’t enjoy Love Today , and Dragon was just okay. But if skepticism can ever lead to a pleasant surprise, Dude definitely proves it. I usually look for one out of two things from a film - a compelling narrative or solid entertainment. I don’t comment much on Tamil films because Tamil cinema, at least from what I have sampled, often misses both and at its worst, treats the female lead as an interchangeable prop, contributing no real agency to the story. It has been a long while since a mainstream entertainer offered a female character with intention, dimension, and presence. Dude does, and that alone deserves acknowledgement. PR struck like a typical Gen-Z actor in his first...

Recap 2025

    2025 was a year of trials, tribulations and triumphs. A mixtape of emotions. A year where either conditional probability did not apply to my life or there were more variables in play. It was a year of shedding: both light and deadweight. The year quietly announced itself towards the end of 2024, when I had a wonderful exploration of the Ripon Building and its surroundings. It quietly set the tone for the new year – wandering, observing and letting curiosity take the lead. The first two months were mildly eventful. I was selected to be the head of Registration Committee for Vibrance. I enjoyed the hustle – the checklist, the controlled chaos and the celebrations. I was simultaneously handling my submission for the semi-finals of the Google Girls’ Hackathon, and I’m grateful to my committee and my parents for being supportive. I had an instrumental phase, and I remember blasting the Imperial March in the middle of the night while working. It turned out to be much better ...

The beauty of antithesis

It is human to crave order Inhuman to resist the antithesis. One steadies the room The other wakes your doom It is all around us, omnipresent. Dare I say, nay, I declare. In nature, in physics In perfect relationships In the blank space of art Or the black text in a white part Youth teaches you to embrace it Experience forces enjoyment Conservatives, resistance. Yet Immortal, its existence.
