There has never been a better case for giving a free hand to screenwriters of Hollywood in writing scripts as can be seen in NUREMBERG film of 2025. The director and actors usually get all the credit but please spare a thought of the brilliance behind the scenes. Though the story is well known and movies have been made in the past, this particular narrative has a message for all people across the globe. All the performances are brilliant and would urge everyone to watch this film.

If warmongers were sent to the frontline of battles, there would be no wars !

A time was when heroes were physically strong people who crushed their opponents, subjugated people and conquered new territories faraway from their homelands. Little has changed since except for smart people using numbskulls to their bidding.

Knowledge is POWER and that power was meant for the greater good and not exploitation. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely! Our challenge is to transform society and make the planet a better place with stability and sustainability.

Meanwhile in sunny Chennai, temperatures are soaring as a renowned musician was awarded and others in the music business were miffed as they didn’t care for his versatility, outspoken views and an outreach program for music to reach the masses!

There is a resurgence of religiosity among people. They claim that they are on the Stairway to Heaven as they have visited every holy shrine there is to see. Most of them harbour ill will towards fellow humans and justify their hatred on some preconceived notions. Pandering to them, governments and other bodies have aided religious leaders and helped in construction of newer edifices to the Almighty.

It would take a devious mind to decipher the machinations of the present political class. The only ideology pursued is one of opportunism. In justifying the stance taken, conjuring up imaginary scenarios and wild accusations against opponents is commonplace. Democracy redefined!

We thought it would never happen again! A master race, that was in the past and no it cannot happen today. Or so we think! It starts with the othering of people and then denouncing them before destroying their lives. We are safe till we are embroiled in the churn of destruction of humanity and now we are rendered helpless. Evil is insidious and enmeshes us in a deadly embrace. I pray for a better tomorrow.
