Manipal’s largest student media organisation, run by a bunch of passionate folks across town. #WeAreManipal
Wandering round the Student Plaza, looking at the blues above,
Admiring the structure and the pillars made me think of,
The majestic imagery of the colosseum in my mind,
The gladiators battled out while their blades would grind.
Romans seated, the theatre all surround,
As the trumpets of entertainment … Continue Reading
Your reading list? Long
Your watch-list? Longer
What is it about me?
That a new book or show makes you rigour
I thought I am your favourite
With every scene and page, I thought you were savouring it
I used to look at you

An ode to those who chased their truth.
Them rolling stones who paved their route.
Some overdosed, some paid their dues.
Fell totem poles and shaped new rules.

I stifle a yawn,
The mortal rummages through the chest—
Beige, brown, blank
I am placed on a wooden stand
I lounge in my inkpot,
I hear my master’s footsteps,
Poised, elegant, immaculate!
Feather-light touch on rugged land.
5th September 1701
Dearest,
The room is dark but … Continue Reading
The Sun and The Moon—embodiments of grandeur and creation—symbols of permanence. To us, they’re a vivid illumination. A fleeting moment between dawn and dusk. What if they were to exchange in a conversation? A parley, of sorts. What would it represent?
A massive ball of energy, anchored in one … Continue Reading
Passing the test of time and eras,
Are the stories of men and women in love
Why then is it said to be as tender as a feather that can be broken easily by just a little bit of force?
Is there strength in the tenderness of love?
