turning 25 is so strange. i feel like i’ve lived so much yet everything seems to have just started. i remember being five and frolicking through my dada’s khet, climbing trees and playing lukka chuppi. my dadi would apply surma on my waterline & mehendi on my palms while humming folk tunes. 10 was even more fun as we moved away from my ancestral home into a bigger house of our own. i would spend my days watching senseless television with my sisters getting to know them even more closely. out on our terrace we wish upon shooting stars like kajol from some movie. i’m glad i didn’t know this then, that after 12 a girl is no longer a girl but an entity. as an incomplete being, she travels towards a different reality. but it’s not until a decade passes that she becomes whole and gains that kind of agency. by 15 things had changed drastically. the world became very bleak and constantly changing. my girlhood was slipping from my fingers and everyone was teaching me to be more careful. a rage had started to brew in the pit of my stomach. with that kind of fury, i could’ve burnt villages and cities. 20 was tormenting. i was almost a woman but still a girl. love and hatred claimed me equally as i swayed from one side to the other constantly. a lot of lessons and choices were thrown in my face until i dealt with them diligently. but 25 has arrived in all its glory. liberation permeates through every part of my being. finally, the colors have returned, bringing along an array of fragrances and melodies. i realize now that everything that happened was just to bring me to this moment. oh, how glad I am that it did!

yes relationships are fine but no one understands the bond between a desi girl and that one lehenga she wanted to get when she went lehenga shopping which she looked like a Disney princess in but bought the 2nd best option because it was too expensive.... I STILL THINK ABOUT THE LAVENDER LEHENGA FROM A YEAR AGO BRO 😭😭🤌🏻

If reincarnation is real I wonder how many people stare at their own art in museums, listen to their own music they made in a different life and read books they don't remember writing

thinking abt when someone rests their head on your shoulder and suddenly you're barely breathing because you don't want to disrupt their comfort by moving. will never get over how there can be so much love held in silent gestures.

Mumbattan References
I expected no less from Spiderverse but the cultural references in the movie still made me immensely happy (I am by no means a the-buck-stops-with-me authority on my culture, nor is this a complete list, I’m just naming random things that I caught that made me happy to see)
The architecture, obviously
Miles crashing a wedding procession oh my god
When Pavitr yells at Miles for saying chai tea
Then tries to beat up Spot for saying naan bread
“Four people on a bike?! That seems a little unsafe.” 😂🤣 (wait till Spot sees the literal nine year olds driving scooters-)
This might sound weird, but authentically Indian music? Like, whenever India shows up in western media, there’s Bollywood music in the background, whether you’re in the north, south, east or west, and it annoys me that it feels like they think that’s the only music we have here, India has just as much variety as other countries do. I can’t explain what type of music showed up when Miles fell into Mumbattan (I have to listen to it again when more of the soundtrack comes out) but I can tell you it evoked a specific sense of longing and nostalgia in me that I can’t put into words
Pavitr’s school uniform my beloved
Pavitr saying bhaiya, even if it was just one time (Hindi for brother)
Shoutout to the blink-and-you-miss-it Zomato billboard my father caught but I didn’t
Feeding stray puppies!!
“And this is where the British stole all of our stuff.” Pavitr, sweetie, I love you
coconut oil and prayer
Mumbattan comic book effects being in Hindi
Once again, not claiming to be an all-knowing whiz or anything, just listing things I liked
