Why on the earth we tend to trust a total stranger but our own people whom we daily live with! We justify ourselves of all the deeds we do to stay or rather gain happiness only to realize that we are in to a deep pit which leads to anywhere but happiness. This reminds me of the lyrics of the famous gazal sung by late Jagjit Singh – “Tere jahan mein aisa nahi ke pyar na ho, jahan ummid ho uski wahan nahi milta”. Now the story begins with why do we expect from where we expect?
Lunchbox is a reflection of the routine urban life and the
dry, rather dried up emotions. Oh wait, are they really dried up or just desiccated
waiting for the sprinkle of wet showers to rejuvenate back, bounce back to normalcy!
This is not a review on Lunchbox, but a review of a normal
human being strapped into abnormal ways of life.

Now the story begins with why do we expect from where we expect?
Because, we are just human. We don’t even bother to care for
what is served in the menu. Its granted. It has to be there. Big deal. And what
when we stop getting it. Ya, that’s when the deal is really big.
So what point do I have to make saying all this. This is all
known to everybody reading it. If you
read my previous posts (not many) there is a single bottom line message. Adapt
and evolve.
We all want is ME. MY Happiness, MY Children, MY Job, MY Career,
MY ambitions, all MY MY MY & Me. There is no space for the YOU. No care for
all the above of the YOU, whom we deal with every day in different relations.
Can we adapt to saying, I’m yours, rather than You are mine.
Can we adapt to a small change of caring for little more abandoned emotions of
the YOU in our life. Some would say, I do it and the YOU in my life don’t even
realize. That’s because we don’t make them realize. Those can adapt to make the
YOU realize by just stopping doing everything done everyday for that YOU and
see the evolution in their life. And yours too….
Packed with emptiness, hollowness and monotony of human
life, and nicely wrapped in gestures rather than words, the lunchbox proved to
be a sumptuous meal.
