I had to close down everything, I had to close down my mind
Too many things to cover me, Too much can make me blind
I’ve seen so much in so many places, So many heartaches, so many faces
So many dirty things, You couldn’t believe

When Aristotle said “We make war that we may […]

I have never felt so angry as I do today. Mumbai has been attacked, destroyed and raped by uninvited intruders!
As an Indian, I say, it time that we STOP using the word “Resilience”. We want to attack! We want to attack and finish off the people who instigated this attack and I want to be […]

It is shocking really. Now, terrorists are out in the open. Instead of secretly planting bombs in trash bins, rickshaws or bags, they are coming out of the closet and firing indiscriminately in hotels and pubs. That’s even worse that open firing at the LoC. What do you blame it on? Security lapse or unreliable […]

There is something about Sundays, for everyone. School-going kids get to sleep till their heart’s content and working population gets to sleep as well, apart from clean the house and catching up with their friends, not to mention shopping and eating out.
For me, Sunday is usually another day at work (from home), but of course […]

I happened to discover five kittens in the backyard of my house! New-born, they were resting in the flowerpot and after a few minutes, when I went back again, I saw Mommy Cat feeding all five of them! Here are a few amateurish pics!

Time to feed!
One for the […]

It has just so happened that in the past few days I have ended up discussing marriage with a few people, primarily my friends and colleagues. Not my marriage, but marriage in general. May be the wedding season is around and we can’t help talking about it. I don’t generally discuss marriage with anyone. Not […]

I woke up to a very unexpected front page news today. Late Saurabh Sabbarwal participated in what was supposedly a harmless fun-laden pastry eating competition and ended up losing his life.
