A stunning dramatic sky up above the Netravati bridge ,Mangalore

This beautiful sculpture was clicked at Mangaladevi temple Mangalore when I happened to visit my cousins wedding .

The Mangaladevi Temple is a Hindu temple at Bolara in the city of Mangalore, India, situated about three km southwest of the city centre.

The name Mangalore is usually derived from the name Maṅgaḷadēvī "the goddess Mangala", the main deity of the temple. The name Mangalore is the anglicised version of Kannada : Mangaluru

People of Kerala call the city Mangalapuram "city of Mangala", a Sanskrit translation.

Life’s Gifts Are In Disguise!

A beautiful sunset @ Kovai.

Sun rays piercing out through the clouds..

Movie : Masoom

Singer: Latha Mangeshkar ji


tujhse naaraz nahin zindagi hairan hoon main
I am not upset with you, life.. I am astonished

tere masoom sawaalon se pareshan hoon main
I am distressed by your innocent questions


jeene ke liye sochaa hi nahin dard sambhaalne honge
I did not think that in order to live, I would have to take care of woes...

muskuraye to muskurane ke karz utaarne honge
To smile, I would have to take on the debt of smiling

muskuraye jo kabhi to lagta hai jaise hothon pe karz rakha hai
If I were to smile, it seems that I would have to incure this debt upon my lips

(tujhse naaraz)


aankh agar bhar aai hain boondein baras jayengi
Today, if my eyes fill with tears, then they will fall...

kal kya pata kis ke liye aankhen taras jayengi
Who knows whom these eyes will wait for tomorrow...

jaane kab gum hua kahan kho gaya
Who knows where I lost...

ek aansoo chhupa ke rakha tha
The one tear I had kept hidden...

(tujhse naaraz)

Caged Love!

This Shot I clicked from one of the petrol bunk near my home.

Petrol bunk ....Love birds...sounds unusual right??Well this is a very special petrol bunk I have ever seen in my life with caged lovebirds...parrots..Ducks.. swans... hens ...But when i took this shot this blue bird was swinging merrily lost in some world !

Caged love bird...Suffering...when i took this shot the thought that came in to my mind is one of the famous quote by Kahlil Gibran

"Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars".
