Where inhibitions are set free!

Author Radhika Gopakumar

My friends say I am a very hyperactive, noisy person; although my blogs might not reflect that. I blog mainly about confused feelings I get from insane reveries I have. I have to be super-depressed, super-excited or super-pissed off to write, thereby making my writing pretty much emotional (or so people tell me). There have been people who have loved me for what I write, there have also been people who have despised me for it. Whichever way, I continue to write because I believe in doing what I like, no matter what others say.

Postmortem Woes

I have always been scared of death, I won’t lie. But now it has become scarier. If earlier, the fear was of leaving behind my little world ever since I found my family, and all the things that I’ve wanted… Continue Reading →

Being Kind, Not Blind

‘Minnal Murali,’ that was released in 2021, was not just a fantastically made superhero movie, but also one that dealt with a delicate topic – what being an outcast can do to someone, as portrayed mind-blowingly by Guru Somasundaram. (Tiny… Continue Reading →

Steps to prove that you are an irritating Indian: 1) Listen to a fellow Indian from another state you are meeting for the very first time and is practically a stranger, speaking clearly in English. 2) Bring a stupid smug… Continue Reading →

To Censor Or Not?

A few weeks back, I saw a sudden outrage about the latest editions of Roald Dahl classics being censored to remove several objectionable words. It took me some time to read up on what exactly the issue was. And when… Continue Reading →

Funeral Photography – WTF!

A few years back I unfriended a schoolmate of mine on Facebook. The reason might seem very silly to you. But I was tired of seeing funeral pictures and videos of his grandmother. I am talking about a huge dump… Continue Reading →

Dear Pavithra, I’m sorry

Two days back, Hari and I lost a dear friend. Along with a sense of extreme disbelief, the other feeling that grappled me was guilt. Here was a girl who was the absolute personification of positive energy and selfless love…. Continue Reading →
