Some time back I saw a movie named THE BIRDS and here is my take on the feature. A timeless classic, The Birds is a suspense thriller based on Alfred Hitchcock’s story which gives a tinge of the nature and its effects of the common man. The story revolves around a wealthy socialite Melanine Daniels meeting a lawyer Mitch Brenner in a pet shop where a small conversation ends upto Melanine’s idea of returning the favour he did. To this, she drives around an hour to the North of San Francisco to a small island called Bodega Bay where Mitch spends his weekends with his sister and possessive mother.

In the dynamic realm of the workplace, collaboration and teamwork are crucial for success. However, sometimes this spirit of cooperation takes a dark turn when employees gang up against one particular team member.

This is all about how 1984 riots started and how the community got badly affected and the aftermath. The black days as I call them... While I was reading this book, I could easily picturize the anecdotes, the loot scenes, the scenes which shows the atrocities done on the community. Why so, one may ask cause these were those black days and nights during which my family also struggled to save their religious beliefs, their business, family members especially the men. I was merely 4 years then but my grandmother use to share the stories so as the other elders in the family.
