After the Rain

 

 After the rain

            The denizens almost became roasted in intense heat of above 40 degree Celsius in Northern India, so after long spell of unbearable heat waves today shower gave much relief which proved as sprinkling of water on a hot plate. And people are feeling such a great relief now as the temperature dipped from above 40 degrees to 26 degree Celsius and shivering now. In Ranchi’s low lying areas is waterlogged causing much inconvenience to people while wading in waist deep water somewhere. From intense heat to incessant rain caused cave in some bridges in Bihar and Jharkhand and putting an extra brunt on the people of those areas.  Why this incident is happening known to everyone. In the national capital of the country New Delhi completely submerged in the deluge of 1^st shower and a person is killed and some injured as a roof of the airport caved in, same happened in Jaipur airport and other places also. Yesterday it there was news in TV of swept away cars in Haridwar areas in severe deluge.

            I still remember of making paper boats during rain with my siblings and friends in childhood and use to catch fishes in the rain waters. So in this way some captions on rain is coming into my mind such as—1^st Let the rain washes away yesterday’s trouble. 2^nd Rainy days are cozy blankets and good books and the 3^rd one the sound of rain is nature’s lullaby.

As I explained about the effects of after the rain, which is in real but there is a Japanese film ‘After the rain’ which story goes like this, as a teenager girl for eking out livelihood she is working in a restaurant where she fell in love with the manager of the restaurant who is 45 years old and has a kid of five years.

At the same time a film ‘Before the rain’ made in the backdrop of Indian rural culture in 2007, during Indian British period drama directed by Santosh Sivan of a tragic love story between a British Boss and rural women Sajni (Nandita Das) who couldn’t faced the rejection and killed herself.

            So, rather showing all these devastating images of rain and the horrible stories, I saw and shot few droplets of the rain for soothing eyes of  my friends and readers.
