The intoxicated protector

Nothing except anger and resentment is in my mind, at this point and time. What to say? What to write? Can the act done be erased? It could have been stopped. Will everything be fine now? Now all we can do is, hope. There’s no place for trust now.

Debates have started on the television; newspapers are busy writing reactions and editorials. Everyone seems interested in charity and help. It all seems to be a joke now, on which you don’t even feel like laughing. It has happened a lot many times before and keeps on repeating itself. People died in herds. But unfortunately, the politicians are oblivious as usual, may be they didn’t lose their family. They are still giving speeches and blaming because they are always under cover.

We are worried inside the four walls of our households and the protector of the house is sitting inside the house, drunk, making a joke of everyone.

My heart has ached a thousand times by those sad scenes and I am numb now. Can I be a proud citizen of this Nation? A Nation where no one wants to take the responsibility of its citizens’ security. In Mumbai, people were killed like the way goats are slaughtered. Lamentable..!!! Terrible this is…

I have just pain in my heart. Words are failing me now. I’ll be able to talk more only in my next post. I pay my gratitude to Hemant Karkare, Ashok Kamte, Vijay Salaskar, Sandeep Unnikrishnan and Gajendra. May their souls rest in peace and may God give strength to their families in such time of trouble and pain. I am silent at this time of agony and pray for the peace of the demised. May God give their families courage to stand and live.

We need to learn a lesson from all this.

Love
Yours
Manoj Bajpayee

Shooting break !

Dear Pals,

To begin with; I apologize for not being able to write. I mentioned in my earlier post about my South Africa tour for shooting purposes. I thought that I would be able to post regularly on my blog however owing to my hectic schedules and faulty internet connection facilities, I wasn't able to.

Presently I'm busy with shooting for Acid Factory. I'm leaving for Malaysia for a short shooting schedule now. Hopefully the work would complete in the scheduled time period and I'll be back to Mumbai by the end of this month.

My wife was along with me during the South Africa shoot and she has a guest appearance in the film too. Whenever we go to some country together both of us not only enjoy the nature but also learn the culture and tradition of the country. The same happened this time too. A lot of interesting things happened during the shoot which I'll narrate later, in detail.

Till then, with apologies...

Love
Yours,
Manoj Bajpayee
