Day 29 of 108

 It was equal parts heartburn and equal parts peace today. I won't say, equal parts peace. But equal parts peace plus attempts at generating peace. So that was good. Here are all the things that I am grateful for today:

1. Papa is well. Did not talk to him today but no frantic calls. So that seems to be good.

2. Watched Dhurandhar at one of my favorite theatres today. I love PVR Lido opposite SNDT college. It is so cozy and small! I love it. The movie is quite good. Ranveer Singh is really good. He is quiet and, if the hair and musculature were not so prominent, you would have assumed he is non-descript. The other remarkable actor is Akshaye Khanna who is skinny but seems broader because of the lethal bravado he portrays. I will always remain a Sanjay Dutt fangirl. But I found the film too long and too violent. I think I will have disturbed sleep on account of some of those torture scenes. 

3. One of the things that I love about PVR Lido is just how close it is to my place. In peak time I reached there in 20 minutes and I walked back. It took me 35 minutes and I took a quick route through the bazaar road, past the dance bars etc. But it was a beautiful night and cool and crisp. The Gurudwara lane is gorgeously lit up and it felt like walking through a celebration set up only for you. 

4. The staff at PVR Lido is so sweet and polite. I also enjoyed the coffee.

5. Some work got approved. I had used Canva to create a comic book strip. Oh man! That was just so exhausting! But finally got that done and had it shipped out today. Thankfully it was received well. 

6. Today I ordered some soya chaap from Mini Punjab. It was gravied and not dry like I had wanted. (I generally order the Brraa chaap from Sadak Chaap - which is excellent.) But this was yummy!

7. I like the phrase 'Nazar aur sabr' from Dhurandhar. It's a good resolution to have. I can definitely work on developing the latter.
