Half Pizza - A tale of every Mother

Half Pizza - A tale of every Mother

Last night when my mother came back from office she brought back a half pizza. Typically mumma brings something or the other to eat while her way back from office .Either a sandwich , some chaat or a Wada Pav .Anything yet unquestionably something. 

But as this pizza was half I was wondering where did it come from. When I asked her she said in the afternoon she had to visit some place for some official work. It was her lunch time and as she was hungry so she bought a pizza to eat. It was a tiny little pizza cut into four halves. She ate two and brought the other two for me and my brother. When I asked her why couldn't you finish such a small pizza she replied " How can I eat a pizza without you two " .Listening to this my heart smiled .



And this was not the first time ,she always does this. If she visits a restaurant without us and loves the food then she will make sure she takes us there. If someone shares a chocolate or sweets in the office she will bring that home so that we taste it. Whenever she is eating something she always has us on the back of her mind. Seriously can everyone be like this or its only mum's who can do this.




















Pizza,Pasta,Chicken,Fish are luxuries and that she wont eat without us. Each and every afternoon I get a call from her  and she will always ask "Did you have your lunch?" it is tragic that the majority of us don't make the first call to ask her the same nor do we reply back saying "Yes I did however did you have yours" . It is consistent with such an extent that moms are really exceptional in their own special manner. It's not possible for anyone to be as selfless as them. Why mumma why your half pizza consistently has a place with us...why?

Haldi Kunku – Version 2.0

Haldi Kunku – Version 2.0 Being from a Maharashtrian family, I have seen the custom of celebrating  Haldi Kunku ever since I was a little girl. My mother used to welcome SOUBHAGYAWATI's and offer them a vaan (a little token of gift) and apply Haldi Kunku on their forehead. Ladies exchanging haldi kunku is a symbol of their wedded status and a desire they make for the long lives of their better half. From a few years I am seeing that the number of ladies visiting my home for this function is increasing. May be on the grounds that my mother is making new companions is why we see this increase in number.Now this year I saw another advanced form to this function. I was so glad to see that my mother welcomed ladies from the Hindu religion as well as she ensured she welcomed ladies from different religions too either they were Muslims, Christians or from some other religion.  Celebration of this ceremony was traditionally restricted only to married woman whose husba

When he said " Watch TANHAJI over CHHAPAAK" .. Read what she said.. Not many weeks back I saw the movie Chhapaak .Throughout the movie I was crying. The physical as well as emotional trauma that these acid attack survivors have to go through is something we cant even imagine. No matter how much we think that we can feel their pain but the truth is we cant.  Then released the movie Tanhaji. Being a Maharashtrian and being an admirer of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and his disciples I was looking forward to watch this movie. The narrative of this Veer Maratha was flawlessly portrayed.In its true sense the unsung warrior was celebrated , was remembered for his huge sacrifice. I cried a lot during this movie too.These men define Patriotism in its true sense. This movie was praised by individuals and so was Veer Maratha Tanhaji as his story was unknown to many.I heard a man saying to individuals "Watch TANHAJI over CHHAPAAK".He meant one should watch Tanhaji
