Currents Of Kindness Blog Hop-ECM: Where is the Writer?
After watching The Ba***ds of Bollywood directed by Aryan Khan, I came across Neeraj Pandey’s Instagram post, which sparked deep reflection. As a writer and someone who cherishes the impeccable craft of writing in books, I’ve noticed we often undervalue this skill in other media.
Writers in industries like advertising, political campaign slogans, events, award shows, or theatre are often invisible, much like a burkha-clad woman. Even when we watch a theatrical play, we tend to remember the actor or dancer who stood out for us, but rarely the writer behind the script.
This made me question how inclusive our spaces are for writers outside the realm of books. Do we acknowledge the person who crafted the clever script of a tagline that’s on everyone’s lips now? Writers’ struggles are often dismissed, labelled as lazy or “not knowing how to write,” without understanding the reality of their challenges.
How can we create more inclusive spaces for writers? Every industry—be it a product campaign, event, or show needs a skilled writer who pours their creativity into making it seamless. Consider the writers behind a 30-second ad or a feature film. Are we asking about their pay? Are we recognizing the effort behind the finished product, or do writers remain invisible, just as they often do in movies or advertisements?
In the past decade, only a few writers, like Varun Grover and Neeraj Ghaywan, have gained mainstream recognition for their work, particularly for Masaan. They’ve become household names, but it took years for them to achieve this. Meanwhile, countless other writers toil daily, fighting to keep going without giving up.
Our spaces must become more inclusive and appreciative of writers in every industry. Their work deserves respect, and their pay should reflect their value.
In conclusion I would like to point out… I’ve noticed a troubling pattern: when writers are undervalued, recycling of ideas becomes rampant. When their hard work isn’t recognized, the potential for ground breaking creativity takes a backseat. We need to see the writer. Let’s make space for them. Let’s value their contributions and ensure their efforts are celebrated across all industries.

Every Conversation Matters:My Explore Page
Last night I was doom scrolling the reels section and I came across a reel which showcased a pretty funny advertisement about a husband looking down on his wife because she still uses paper for everything and the end is of course a hilarious one . I shared it with my friend with whom I often share reels and in return he shared a reel of a political personality giving a speech somewhere in India and I got miffed. Guess why? Oh no! I don’t love “hating” people just walking down the road. It’s simply because that particular reel ,that specific piece of content,that 5 seconds of reel in the process of being funny was an attempt to take charge of the algorithm. Not just any algorithm, but the algorithm of MY LIFE.
Confused? I don’t think so . You know it, I know it. Your explore page ,the reels you watch,the content you consume (yes the shows you watch) are in charge of how you view the world. Don’t believe me?! because I have tried it. I have talked about various topics in private, in dm and the content that turns up in all my social media handles is abhorring and the funny part is they actually think they are right. It doesn’t stop at conversations by the way. It’s also the emoji you use in maximum quantity.
Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.comNo surprise when certain political leaders don’t turn up in my explore page of all social media apps. SHOCKING! One repeatedly keeps coming up and it’s laughable. It’s no longer sad. It’s funny and soon it would be so normalised that your next decision of who to vote will be based on who lands up in your reel explore page.
My politics in all its sense of the word has been HIJACKED by the internet . This of course reminds me of the movie social dilemma and I remember people getting their minds blown and I remember thinking to myself “it’s just the beginning.”
Remember that the Internet wouldn’t fix your city, wouldn’t give you education, stop getting influenced by reels. Stop taking it as a measure of taking decisions in your life. Your explore page is just that. For entertainment. I swear if it was helping build a bright future for your country,your city,or your community I wouldn’t be writing this piece because the internet is a black hole and once you start digging,there is no stopping.
Photo by Google DeepMind on Pexels.comJust like me , don’t let your explore page let you form your ideology. I have seen “hate” in my childhood but this time around everyone is looking out for themselves. This time around you might just get your explore page filled with Canadian opportunities to work because you just saw a Shahrukh Khan movie(happened with me after I watched DUNKI)

Been a long time since I wrote on my blog, but I want to go back to doing it regularly, perhaps do a blog hop again (do people still do blog hops? lete write the hashtag and see #bloghop nope. There is nothing. But now seriously thinking of organising one). So this post is about my recent visit to a theater in Kampala, and I really enjoyed the play. You could read my review here.
