Ten years since IIT and all that

In Dec last year, I attended the tenth year reunion at IIT. Technically it will be this year that I will be completing my ten years since graduation but for majority of my IIT friends, that happened to be 2017. No, no, I didn’t flunk a year or anything like that. It’s just that majority of my friends did their B.Tech so they could graduate in 4 years while I and a small fraction of populace at IIT were Dual Degree students (you get both B.Tech & M.Tech) and had to study for five years.

IIT Madras, Dec 2017.

I didn’t vlog during the reunion but did make something few weeks before that when I was in Chennai and took a super short trip to campus with Misre.

For some reason, ended up visiting Chennai quite a few time last year. Talking about last year, though things seemed to be going out of hand, money-wise by the middle of the year, they got sorted out eventually by God’s grace. I bagged quite a few short documentary projects, that I am still working on! So life has been great and I am super grateful and all that.

Also, realized today that I was vlogging even 11 years ago! When vlogging was not even a word (as far as I knew)! 😛

It is difficult to write new relevant posts here on Vatsap (phres shit no more? ). The world has transformed. People consume content on instagram, facebook and Youtube. But it’s difficult to let go off my first blog-site! 🙂 So vatsap.com shall continue to exist! For nostalgia’s sake! 🙂

I almost burnt myself trying to make 3 films in one month! (Vlog)

Here’s the The Police Academy story that I talk about in this Vlog (the other two stories will take some more time to be finished). Link to the previous Vlog (that shows how I lost my hair; in case you are wondering). You can also subscribe to my Vlog playlist on Youtube.

Why I think losing your life-partner is the hardest! (Vlog)

My feelings after going through footage from last year after Baba had passed away. Also, how my recent hair-cut is kind of point-less now! And before I end, healthy juices suck so much – how does any one drink this!!

I made a film about death that also makes you laugh

My grandfather passed away in December last year. Few days ago his youngest brother passed away too. He had one more brother who had died when I was in school. So all three brothers are gone now. I revisited the footage that I had shot during the post cremation rituals. This is that film. It shows you what a family does after a member dies. And the kind of conversations they have. And for some reason, it’s not as sad as one would expect a film about death to be! You let me know what you think about it! I prepare myself for another family reunion.
