Hands of Stone (2016)

 Hungry.

Reflection
"When hunger fuels your passion,
You fight for honour.
A clash of fists and strategy;
Power and speed,
But, the one,
Who rules the head,
Rules the fight."    --- #PoeticWithHope

Divines (2016)

Money! Money! Money!

Reflection 
There are some stories that help us realize how fortunate we are and all our problems or shortcomings appear smaller under it's glow.  

In the name of fairness, we created a system where money doesn't grow on trees (or fall off from trees), we have to earn it.
It is one of those stories that makes us question, what is right or wrong ? Do we take into account the circumstances or context to figure out what is ethical and what is not ? Or is it unjustified to determine what is ethical and what is not under the umbrella of context ? Why is the gap between the fortunate and less fortunate increasing with time ?

Posesif (2017)

🎥 Is this love ?

Reflection
To me, the story evolves under the blanket of the following words (when you replace 'something' with 'someone'!):

Love presents itself in many forms. Only if you understand it well, you begin to see and accept it's different shades.
