LEAD STORY

Protest poets strike again

Dwij and Animesh release ‘Garmi’. City reports a sharp rise in temperature, and in tempers.

Mayanagri: Sources close to the operation confirm that protest poets Dwij and Animesh have once again assembled under suspicious circumstances to make music. The result, ‘Garmi’, has been released to the public, with predictable consequences.

“We were just making a music video. Allegedly.”

— Animesh, on the record

Within hours, chaos was reported across three group chats, two college canteens and one family WhatsApp. Witnesses describe scenes of uncontrolled head-nodding and at least one aunty asking what ‘garmi’ means now.

Police have reportedly been informed, although it remains unclear whether an FIR has been lodged against the artists or the song itself. Officials describe the track as ‘deeply concerning’ and have advised residents to keep the volume down.

OPINION

Why everyone should stop saying ‘content’

A mildly serious take on a very overused word, and what we lose when everything becomes content.

Somewhere along the way, films became content, songs became content, and the people who made them became creators of it. Nobody asked the films.

A film is a film. A song is a song. Call things by their names and they behave better.

Nobody leaves a cinema saying ‘what great content’. They say nothing, walk to the tapri, and talk about it for an hour.
