Shortcomings: Suffers from anxiety attacks, mainly from his past experience while working as a medic as well as a commando.
PERSONALITY:
Myers-Briggs Type: ENFP (The Campaigner)
Enthusiastic, and determinant: Apart from others who have a serious perspective on reality, Aditya more likely has a hopeful approach to it. He believes that life is all about challenges and the best you can do is to keep moving forward, without anything preventing you from achieving your goals respectively. This makes him the opposite of Arjun, who has no hope and looks at reality from a darker perspective.
Is able to study others well: Aditya has one trait, to study what the other person's feeling. His mother, who was a doctor taught him about body languages and how the person reacts or behaves when they're uncomfortable. Aditya is able to notice internal or external discomforts among fellow commandos which makes him empathetic towards others.
Has a jolly nature, is pretty chaotic: Aditya is a fun guy to hang out with! Especially when he has Yuvraj by his side, oh boy. You're going to have a fun ride with this one. If you ever see him being kind of chaotic, it's just Aditya being himself, don't worry!
Looks like a cinnamon roll, but could kill you: Aditya sure looks very sweet at first, but if anything happens to his friends, his enemies are going to have a hard time ahead. He's as dangerous as Arjun if provoked. One time, Yuvraj was badly injured under the hands of the enemies, which scarred him deeply and it grew a rage inside of him, killing every single existing militant that almost killed his friend. This behavior even scared Arjun! But thank goodness, Yuvraj was back in one piece, and the job was done.
BACKGROUND STORY
Aditya Tripathi was born into a Gujarati family, his mother being a doctor and his father a wealthy businessman in trade. He decided to follow his passion in the field of healthcare, just like his mother, wanting to treat and heal people in their hardest times. He used to observe how his mother treated patients and kept note of every single procedure in case someone else faced the same issue. Things were going well so far, as Aditya also surpassed every single challenge, which further led him to pursue one of the top medical colleges to complete his doctor’s degree.
But due to an unfortunate event, Aditya had to drop his medical studies as he wasn't able to pass his exams with full intent. With that, he felt his dreams of becoming a doctor were completely shattered. Worse, his father was not happy with how Aditya failed his exams and insisted that he should rather help him in his business. This strained his relationship with his father, leading him to stress, depression, hopelessness, and the urge to call himself a failure at times, something his mother noticed. She tried to assure Aditya that things would be okay and that something better might be awaiting him.
Aditya went on a trip to Himachal Pradesh with his friends, who wanted to cheer him up. They had stopped near a restaurant for a break, but internally, he was already planning to give up his dreams to support his family in case he couldn't accomplish his own. But just then..
An accident occurred outside the restaurant, making Aditya and his friends rush outside to see what had happened, two soldiers were making their way to the cantonment area, but their bike had slipped, causing them to sustain injuries. Aditya quickly rushed to one of the soldiers who had a wound and immediately pulled out the medical supplies he had brought with him in case of an emergency. Within a few minutes, Aditya was able to help them recover quickly, as the soldiers were incredibly pleased by his actions. One of them looked at him and said;
"You're a quick one, young man. You could be a combat medic here and save many lives like this."
These very words from the soldier's mouth were enough not just to encourage Aditya but to help him find a new purpose. Failing his exams didn’t mean it was all over; he could still keep trying and evolve into something even better. He never forgot that day, and later on, it even sparked the urge to join the Indian Armed Forces. He could still make his parents proud by doing something extraordinary, and this realization filled him with absolute encouragement and determination.
Aditya didn’t tell his parents he was joining the army. Instead, he lied, saying he wouldn’t return home until he had achieved something greater. He enlisted in the Army Medical Corps, hoping to find a new purpose after his failure in medical school. But later on, his real dream was to become a Combat Medic in the PARA SF. Despite the silence and distance from his family, Aditya was determined to rise above his past and prove himself.
Before becoming a commando, Aditya had to endure the selection process of the special forces — the probation period where most candidates fail. It's all about the mental and physical pressure placed on you as you pass through every single test, but Aditya was able to keep going. He also saw many candidates desperately holding on, not wanting to give up, and Aditya encouraged them, which gave them a slight boost. The one thing about Aditya was that, even in the toughest times, he was able to keep a smile on his face.
The time came when Aditya had finally passed the selection process and completed his training at the Commando School. There, he also met Yuvraj Chaudhary, another aspiring soldier who, like him, dreamed of becoming a commando. Together, they graduated, earning their maroon berets and performing the glass-eating ritual to conclude the celebration. After completing the medical course and successfully passing it, Aditya felt like a new person. The one who had once dreamt of becoming a doctor was now a commando, proudly holding the responsibility of being a Combat Medic.
The moment he came back home, his mother opened the door and saw that her son sure wasn't wearing a doctor's coat, but a camo uniform. That didn’t disappoint anyone, it made them cry tears of happiness, that their son was now a soldier for the frontlines.
"Told you, Maa. Your son would come back only when he becomes something. And here I am.”
Even his father shed a tear, quickly wiping it away, proud to see his son finally accomplish what he had set out to do. Feeling regretful for his past disappointment, Aditya comforted him, saying he was glad that if it weren't for his anger, he wouldn't have come this far.
As they share a heartfelt hug, this is where Aditya's journey begins.. when he becomes a part of the Shatrujeet Unit.

Others: If you were asked to write for the 5th Valkyria Chrinicles game, how would you write it?
Me: As a mixture of the Burma, New Guinea, and Borneo campaign.
Others: … What?
Me: Well, the Valkyria chronicles franchise has always liked toying with some degree of moral ambiguity, with an empire that is clearly in the wrong, but the side you are fighting for, while better, still has glaring flaws. Furthermore, the fourth game implied and talked about the idea that nations within the Federation has colonies, and while I am skeptical of how much of what the Imperial soldier stating that claim is stating established facts or state propaganda, that could be an angle to explore plot wise.
Think about it, perhaps the Empire launches a naval invasion to try and take over these resource rich colonies, and are banking on creating a narrative that they are liberators to the indigenous population, just like how the Japanese did during their initial pushes into Southeast Asia.
This could also mean a new perspective of what I shall dub for the sake of this post, the “Commonwealth”, who draws inspiration from mainly British colonial forces and Commonwealth, more specifically, Indian and Australian forces, with a heavy side of Gurkhas. Where you have to manage and combat this narrative, between members of your squad that are descendants of Edinburgh Federation settlers (Australians), indigenous peoples (Indians, Indonesians, Malaysians, and Nepali Gurkhas) and those actually from the Federation (British).
Not to mention, this could also be interesting to explore in the context of why they are siding with the Federation. Those actually from the Federation might view the conflict through the lens of ideology, and preserving the Empire Federation. Meanwhile the settlers might not care about the broader Federation, but they do care about their home being threatened. Finally those who are indigenous might have negative feelings about their current Colonial overlords, but be even more skeptical to the Imperial claims, or maybe even be exposed to the actual Imperial treatment that is far worse than anything the Federation have done.
And the Darscen can be explored in an interesting lens, as the Federation-native members might have the most amount of anti-Darscen soldiers, while settlers might still talk about them using offensive terms, but otherwise treats them better due to the need for the skill sets often associated with Darscens being particularly useful and valuable, while the indigenous members don’t have the context for the hate, and as far as they’re concerned, it’s someone else’s problem.
Gameplay-wise, the door is open to a lot of creativity. Jungle warfare can open the door to a lot of new mechanics and tactical situations. Maps could be very claustrophobic due to the thick jungle. Closer engagements could lead to having classes be more flexible, such as the inclusion of melee, bonus equipment like flares for the Scout class that helps to boost accuracy within the zone, or even new skills like engineers being able to build emplaced weapons.
Then there are the tanks. Tanks could play an interesting role, as tanks were used in far more limited numbers and roles compared to the European fronts, but I can easily see an interesting exploration in this world about smaller more compact tanks that function like anti-infantry roles, like how the Australians use Matilda tanks in the liberation of Borneo.
I could also see the dropping of the lancer class (iconic as it is), but the adoption of a new class that I would dub the “point man”, who would act as a mix of the scout and the shock class, having high movement range, but armed with more short ranged weapons like submachine guns and introducing shotguns to the series.
And the enemy can be interesting as well, with perhaps less use of the traditional image of the Imperial forces within the series, but instead more like naval troops and sailors and marines, perhaps their own colonial forces, and maybe even native people who side with the Imperials, deeming the Federation too irredeemable.
Finally, aesthetic. I think people are too obsessed with either the German, Soviet and/or American WWII aesthetic, but I personally find British commonwealth and colonial forces too be an awesome aesthetic, and also because I believe people often overlook the actions and achievements of British imperial forces.
Personally, I think people might be intrigued with playing characters inspired and based off Sikh, Malay, Gurkhas, Australians, and even British forces. Slouches hats, Bren guns, Owen guns, and Kukri knives, honestly it would be cool to see and use.
Besides, what could be cooler than siccing a fantasy world equivalent of a Gurkha or Aussie on an unsuspecting Imperial?
Others:… Go back to having the shower thoughts be about Genshin.

Amaran (2024)
My parents took me out to the movies after an exhausting week of exams. I had no idea what were watching, knew nothing about who was starring and absolutely knew zilch about the plot. My mom just told me that she was sure that I'd like the movie very much. And I can tell you now, I liked the movie very much indeed.
The direction and the story-telling were just amazing. Mukund's and Indhu's story was so beautiful to watch. The way their relationship blossomed and how they fought through the hurdles was heart-warming. Knowing how the movie was going to end made all those scenes that much more precious, that much more meaningful. Of course I knew how the movie was going to end. It's a movie based on a soldier in the Indian Army. There was only one place this movie was going and I knew that really well.
Mukund was driven and passionate. His love for the army and his dedication towards serving the country, no matter what anyone else said was inspiring. There was none of that typical Indian film hero-worship, at least not too the extent where it was unrealistic. Whatever was portrayed in the movie in terms of the respect the soldiers had for Mukund, how his family treated him and how his in-laws treated him all did feel quite realistic. That being said, I felt as though the dialogue-writing in some places was just meh? There were many places where the dialogues were flat and just tweaking the words here and there may have made it more resounding? I don't know. That's just my non-expert opinion.
In terms of the acting, Sivakarthikeyan did an okay job. It wasn't spectacular or anything. I've seen other actors emote better. But, he did play his role well. It was nice to see him move away from his comfort comedic-acting to a more serious one such as this. This must have been such a great opportunity for him and I like the growth. Perhaps doing more of such movies will get him the exposure that he needs. His efforts have to appreciated.
Sai Pallavi on the other hand, man, what an actress! She was just so damn spectacular in this film. Every scene that she was in was just such a pleasure to watch. This woman knows how to EXPRESS. She knows how to EMOTE. I laughed with her, I became excited with her, and I cried with her. Honestly, her acting really did carry the movie a good distance. That scene in the bathroom, that scene with the phone call, those last few minutes of the movie, will forever live rent free in my head. She has done such an AMAZING job and I can't wait for her to win awards for her role in this film. She deserves it.
The fact that this movie is based on real-life events, makes it that much more heartbreaking. When the title of the film popped on to the screen, I already had an inkling as to how this movie was going to end. 'Amaran' means 'immortal'. And I can now see why they the named the movie so.
I am and will always be such a sucker for military movies.
Overall, 9.4/10
Docked a few points for the pain and anxiety this movie put me through.
100% would recommend. Will definitely watch again for the plot and for Sai Pallavi and for Sivakarthikeyan (he really is one of my favorite human beings)
I'm gonna go and get my hands on the book that was written about Mukund Varadarajan.
Watched On: 14/11/24
