Real to reel and back to real…

A dam appeared on the silver screen.

That gave a totally new insight to people around the dam.

On one side, the dam looked totally new.

But from the other side, it looked old and dilapidated.

From a few thousand kilometres up North, it couldn’t even be seen.

And nobody could see under the ground to check if seismic waves would rise up and disrupt the structure.

The heat is rising all around and two states are heading towards troubled waters.

Sometimes real life inspires reel life and then than reel life escapes back into real life.

Damn!

Some slogans to live and die by…

The Bible: Live and Let Live.

James Bond: Live and Let Die.

Suicide Bomber: Die and Let Die.

India’s Terrorist Policy: Die and Let Live.

∙ New brand ambassador for Maharashtra Tourism: Kasab.
Catchline: Come visit us, you’ll love this place so much that we’ll never let you leave!
(No spelling mistake. It can’t be “we’ll never let you live” as death is reserved only for common citizens and not hardened terrorists.)

P.S. Delhi could say the same for the Kashmiri who visted them: Afzal Guru.
