March 2022 was an emotionally low month.

The Kashmir files had released & it stirred all bolted emotions.

This is how I reviewed the movie last year after the first watch.

Day1 I felt nothing , but then it slowly started working like a slow poison & I barely slept that month. Image
all bottled up emotions **
1. Finally Saw #kashmirifiles and I wasn't shocked, trust me hardly any tears and no sleepless nights for me, I think we have had our share of sleepless nights already in past since 1990.

#100templesofIndia

15. krimchi temples (Udhampur - Jammu).

Complex of 7 ancient temples.
Dating back to 8th & 9th century and one of the oldest temples in Jammu.
Temples reflect ‘Nagara’ style of architecture.

Some sources say that they were built by Dev dynasty of Jammu.
Even though the walls are eroded, I found similarities to the temples in Bhuvneshwar built around the same era.

An hour in this complex took me centuries back.

I feel sorry so little is known about these temples even among locals in Jammu.
