So, it was a trip that was laced with nostalgia and excitement of attending a school friend’s wedding. The first feeling that […]

There’s something about Delhi monsoons. You never know whether they’ll arrive (I give a damn to our met department predictions), how long it will rain and when it will get over. The whole city goes in a tizzy when the rains come as the red lights suddenly stop working, the vengeful spirit in me cries […]

There aren’t too many valleys in India, or even if there are I don’t think we are up there with some countries. Anyhow, leaving that debate for another day, I believe that Dehradun is right up there qualifying as a serene place in the foothills where calmness and chaos can be found in equal measures, […]

Bukhara at ITC Maurya Sheraton is one place that I’d been wanting to go for long, but due to lack of right company or some other reason, it’d remained on my must-visit restaurants for a long time.

6 SP Marg seemed to be an unusual venue for Speaking Tree event. It did not sound like a conference hall, or a traditional official get-together venue. When I reached there, I realized it is the residence of Bennett Coleman Chairman Indu Jain’s residence. Speaking Tree, for the uninitiated, is a regular Times of India […]
