Is it for real? Is it fiction? Is it a dream? Is it an illusion? Is it happening? These are some of the shake-your-head queries that one asks oneself. We love seeing stories.

Sometimes on TV, sometimes in Cinema and mostly on 0TT platforms like Netflix, etc. They fascinate us but we really do not believe in all of them.

We look at it as more of stories that entertain us by using creative license. No matter how exaggerated the screen stories may look they are inspired by real life.

Even super hero movies and cartoons build their fantasy narrative on human wishes. In fact, the more they relate to our lives and our aspired lives the more they become popular. Some of them may sound and look far-fetched, but you will find somebody relating to something in them.

Every life is a serial going on in reality. Everybody has a story that has something unique. The interesting part is that the story that is happening in our lives seems as it is only happening to us. The fact of the matter is that everybody else is also going through some unique experience that has its own weave and pattern.

Many times you will see two people going through almost identical happenings but having completely different endings.

Why is it so? Why do people with same issues, environment, and upbringing end up with diametrically opposite consequences? The answer is that everybody’s narrative about their own situation is biased by their own approach. There is so much written about the stories we see around us that we are ever ready to question and challenge them.

There is very little written about the story we form about........
