Lazy.sunny Sundays are so enjoyable.You can finally catch up on some reading, try out that new recipe, go on a short trip, or engage in whatever other activity which you find relaxing,before you plunge into work again tomorrow. Put a smile on someone's face today. Work out an exercise schedule.Drop in to surprise an unsuspecting friend or relative.Save the movies for the next weekend, because finally time seems to be taking it slow.Do something which energises you, enlightens you, empowers you.
Today, I got a chance to behold the changing art scene in my country, on attending a film festival of sorts.Filmmakers seem to be reacting to the noise on and off celluloid, through mostly silent creations.I list a few of my favourites here: A Beast Called Beauty - directed by Aakanksha Chitkara Maybe because I am a woman living at a time when India is renowned for objectification of and heinous crimes against women, this documentary film struck me the most and inspired this post.The film voices the common woes of our sex racked by the rigid concepts of beauty set by the society; a situation only worsened by the marketing techniques of fairness creams and other beauty products.However,the movie ends on a happy note, with the featured females professing to have realised that they have accepted who they are, and are content with themselves.I hope every girl out there does the same.
