Spiderman, tu ne churaya mere dil ka chain




How awesome is Spiderman? I'm not much of a Superhero person, but I've always had a soft corner for this guy, and since Tom Holland began playing the part, I've begun loving him more. He is PERFECT for the role.

But what makes the situation incredible, interesting and awful at the same time is this Indian version of Spiderman, with actors dancing in B-grade costumes in a cringe-worthy love song set in an open field (almost all Indian/Bollywood movies have song-and-dance numbers). The main line of the song is: Spiderman, Spiderman, tu ne churaya mere dil ka chain (Spiderman, you have stolen my heart's peace)

Apparently, India also has a comic strip version of Spiderman who wears a dhoti (Indian Punjabi attire in the form of a cloth tied around the waist). Lol. Spiderman has truly become global!

Here is one of the funniest videos I have ever seen. Tom Holland a.k.a Spiderman being made to repeat the lines of said song, and, wait for it......dance to it at the end!!😂
 Can't tell you how many times I've returned to this video for the LOLS!


Today, I drew Spiderman for one of my paper-cut pieces. Let's see how it turns out:)

Slyther-in

I guess it's confirmed. The last house I expected to be in- Slytherin- yet here I am. In the last 4 years, I've taken this Quiz about 5 times, and 3 out of 5 times I got Slytherin; the other 2 times, Ravenclaw. Fine. I accept my fate. I strangely prefer Slytherin to Ravenclaw ...oops! Also, finally, a blast from the past,  13 years ago : 😆 ENJOY:) For HP Fans who are looking for comfort, check out J.K Rowling's new initiative, Harry Potter at Home  :  https://www.wizardingworld.com

So Far, So Good (some work progress and some memories)

My studio space at the Sir John Cass School of Art, Architecture and Design in Aldgate, London. Before I left for Pakistan amidst the Corona virus crisis, I had been exploring laser cutting at The Cass . It had been an interesting technical and physical endeavour for me to prepare and procure different kinds of paper for this purpose, learning from Joel how to make an Adobe Illustrator file out of the linear pen illustrations that I had drawn, and ensuring that the illustrations were made in a way that would be conducive to this process. Unfortunately, the first time I tried this, I put in many hours to get the prerequisites in place for my slot in the laser cutting room, but failed after an entire day of hard work because the laser cutting machine did not recognise the vectorised drawing. Finally, with Joel's help, I managed the correct kind of digital file-making, and was able to print a particular illustration on a number of different materials (foam board, wrappi...
