Please do help the young man. I’ll benefit from some suggestions too. From my side I can suggest @c_aashish and @anayjoglekar. I would really love to hear from analysts who are from different hues of the political spectrum too. But what I have found in the last few years is this-
People from the media who support the Congress show a lot of disdain for people who don’t agree with them. Same is true for some media persons who support the BJP too. This language of ‘bhakts’, ‘andhbhakts’ is high on rhetoric but it erodes your credibility. Bias is ok as
long as it does not turn into disdain and disrespect for voters. While I don’t believe that voters are always right, there is a collective intelligence that you ought to respect in a democracy. I believe a lot of leaders from Congress got carried away by supporters in their media
and they lost the plot when they started blaming the voters. Leaders using the language of ‘bhakts’, ‘hate bags’ was counter intuitive and self defeating. Ground supporters of both sides use rhetoric, derisive language, abuse for their opponents but I believe that serious
political analysts should not, however tempted they are. You could use your rhetoric against leaders but to use it for common public only reveals frustration. Lot to say, but more later. But please feel free to add names so that we can all learn more.

I don’t think this is a problem with just individuals. Urban life and lifestyle has been a major culprit in this. We have been able to increase our standard of living but not the standard of life. Let me compare this to a phenomenon that I observed in Indian film music. -1
Till early 80s composers and arrangers worked mostly with acoustic instruments. Emphasis was on the ‘composition’ and not on the ‘sound’. ‘Sound’ was an ornament not the soul of the song. With the advent of the synthesiser, things started changing. -2
Here was an instrument that cloned many instruments and offered a million ‘sounds’. Suddenly, it now became imperative for songs to have a new ‘sound’. This changed something very fundamental in the production of Indian film music. ‘Sound’ became the soul of a song -3

I stopped subscribing to newspapers since last two to three years. Resubscribed them (mostly financial ones) only for my son. But I, too, am disappointed with the quality of newspapers and the journalism. There was a time when TOI and the Express had reviews of music concerts,
art exhibitions, theatre. That stopped - at least in the Mumbai editions. The English newspapers refused to entertain any material that was to do with the Marathi ethos. I remember when senior journalist Ambareesh Mishra had interviewed me for winning the best playwright award
in an intercollegiate Marathi one act play competition. Now, there is absolutely no news in the English papers about the Marathi cultural world. Marathi newspapers have also have very little of value accept for some regular columns written by non journalists. Political news is

काही गोष्टी केवळ मराठी मुलुखातच घडू शकतात. तीन संगीतकार वेगवेगळ्या भूमिकेत येऊन एकत्र एक गाणं करतात हे इतर कुठे घडलं असेल असं माझ्या तरी ऐकिवात नाही. एक संगीतकार गाण्याची सुरावट रचतो. त्या संगीत रचनेचे सूर नोटेशनच्या रूपाने तो दुसऱ्या संगीतकाराला
पोस्टकार्डावर लिहून धाडतो. दुसरा संगीतकार गीतकाराच्या भूमिकेत शिरून त्या पत्ररूपाने आलेल्या सुरावटीवर फार सुंदर शब्द लिहितो आणि मग ते गाणं एक तिसरा संगीतकार गायकाचा सदरा घालून गातो! प्रतिभेच्या या त्रिधारा एकत्र येऊन जो गीतरूपी प्रयाग झाला आहे ते सुप्रसिद्ध गीत आहे –
‘स्वर आले दुरूनी’! दुरून पोस्टकार्डावरून आलेल्या नोटेशनवरूनच प्रेरणा घेऊन ते गीत लिहिणारे गीतकार म्हणजे संगीतकार पं. यशवंत देव, गायकाची भूमिका बजावणारे संगीतकार सुधीर फडके आणि अतिशय चित्तवेधक संगीतरचना करणारे संगीतकार म्हणजे सुप्रसिद्ध व्हायोलिनवादक आणि संगीत संयोजक –

On social media, there is no filter. Things people say on Twitter would never be said if the person was sitting across you, if you had a personal relationship with the person. I see a lot of friends speak very vehemently on topics I would never agree on. I see to it that I never
argue with them on Twitter. Twitter conversations have a tendency to degenerate faster than food kept outside in summers and escalate faster than a fire in a dried forest. I also notice with great gratitude that these same friends who may not subscribe to my views also
reciprocate by maintaining silence on Twitter if they don’t agree with my views. People are not villains if they have views different from your own. Ideology is not the person. People grow, change, adapt. If we maintain civility, use words with care we do a favour to ourselves

I was in my college on the 12th of March. It was 2:10 and my lectures were over. I used to walk home from Ru via Gadkari Chowk and then to my house in Prabhadevi. A friend persuaded me to drink a cup of tea in the canteen before proceeding home. I said no, and he insisted -
so I stayed back. The moment I drank the last drop of tea in my glass there was a loud blast and the glass pane of the canteen window cracked because of it. We thought there was a cylinder blast. When I walked out of my college campus, and came to the main road, I saw a man -
carrying one of his bloody severed limbs in his surviving hand. He was so terrified that he wasn’t even crying. He was just running away from the site. On my way, I saw that the lucky petrol pump which I crossed every day, was blown to smithereens. If I hadn’t stopped for that

पर्व १ भाग ६

‘चार दिवस सासूचे’ मालिका नुकतीच प्रदर्शित व्हायला सुरुवात झाली होती. एका समारंभात मला मराठीतला एक सुप्रसिद्ध दिग्दर्शक भेटला. मला पाहिल्याबरोबर तो जरा छद्मी हसला आणि म्हणाला – “अरे काय गाणं केलंस तू हे? चार दिवस सासूचे?! अशी काय चाल केलीस?” 1/18
त्याच्या प्रश्नातला कुत्सित सूर माझ्यापासून लपून राहिला नव्हता. पण मीही त्याच्याबरोबर हसलो आणि म्हणालो – “मला मजा आली म्हणून!”
‘चार दिवस सासूचे’ या मालिकेच्या शीर्षकात चारच दिवस असले तरी ही मालिका तब्बल अकरा वर्षं चालली. अनेक वर्षं ते गाणं लोकांच्या ओठांवर राहिलं. 2/18
खरं सांगायचं तर पहिल्यांदा ‘चार दिवस सासूचे’ या मालिकेचे निर्माते नरेश बोर्डे आणि दिग्दर्शक खलील हेरेकर माझ्याकडे या मालिकेचा प्रस्ताव घेऊन आले तेव्हा हे गीत कसं काय होईल याबद्दल मीही जरा साशंक होतो. 3/18
