~Mast Magan~
In the world full of people falling in and out of love, Mast Magan is an amazing
love track showcasing sweet and tender love between Krish and Ananya.
The song truly depicts that love is not only restricted to dating but it is more of
being together at the times of need.
Being able to be together and endure what all comes your way makes your
love udoubtly more intense and lasting.
The song beautifully exhibits a fully grown love which yearns acceptance.

~हो शीश-महल ना मुझको सुहाए
तुझ संग सुखी रोटी भाए

मन मस्त मगन
मन मस्त मगन
बस तेरा नाम दोहराए~
This aphorism made me realize that having the right person by your side is
what all we need and it's adequate too.

The idea of no matter what, I'll Stay, actually restores one's faith in true love
and potrays the Love that lasts forever.

The Invisible Man by H. G. Wells
Published: 1897
Genres: Classic, Science Fiction
Review: - I really liked the writing in The Invisible Man, but I thought the
storytelling was awful. H. G. Wells has a way with words and I really enjoyed
his turn of phrase. Phrases like “the inhuman bludgeoning of all tentative
advances of curiosity (p. 19),”violently firing out its humanity (p. 33)” and “The
Anglo-Saxon genius for parliamentary government asserted itself; there was
a great deal of talk and no decisive action (p. 28).” And he uses the word
“hobbledehoy” which had the Downton Abbey fangirl in me grinning. But the
story itself moved at a snail pace. It took me a week to read 30 pages.
I thought it was told from the least interesting perspective possible –from the
outside observers instead of the invisible man’s view and what he was
struggling with.
These outsiders noticed something was not quite right (“Look how much time
he spends alone!”) but not to the point that I found it very interesting. When
the plot finally picked up, instead of some much needed action the cool stuff
was recapped in a conversation where he just describes all the action in the
dullest way imaginable. I had to make myself finish this book and keep
pencils far, far away from my eyes.
The science behind the invisibility was pretty interesting. It was based on the
idea that our world is an illusion of light. I thought that was a fascinating way
to look at the world. (See I didn’t hate everything about it).

I found the main character interesting if not likable. He’s an anti-hero. I’m
pretty sure his antagonist was all the stupid people in the whole world. He was
kind of arrogant. Obviously he learns the bad things about invisibility. I was
surprised about the little things that he struggles with, though. I could tell a
lot of thought went into what it would really be like. For example, the fact that
he can’t sleep because his eyelids are invisible. The crappy thing about being
invisible is that it’s easy to get things, but hard to enjoy them. And you get
kind of lonely. H. G. Wells did have a good point that the only really good use
for invisibility is murder.
I’m not sure if I was supposed to get something out of this book. At the end I
felt like the moral was “Mean people suck but it’s better than being alone.”
Overall, I found it tedious but the writing was good. I enjoyed War of the
Worlds so much more.
