And how the movie can portay Sonia Gandhi as villian blah..blah.. blah...In every single Indian movie, there is a photo of Mahatma Gandhi in every police station. And policemen are MOST of the time being shown as villians in most movies. So does that

How long can you keep missing all our India matches and Formula1.... And how can you

Whats life without cold! It has become an integral part part of my life that if I DON'T catch a cold atleast two times a week, it means something is terribly wrong with me and I need to consult a doctor… Thanks to my classical music classes and my guru, for the major part of my life, I had abstained from cold stuff…And now, all of a sudden in the last few years, if I expect my body to put up a

As I sit on my bed, wondering what I should pen down, before I sleep, I look at my new phone which lies next to me. Me went back in memory lane.. was reminded of my old phone...that was a really really special thing...It entered my life on the 29th of May 2003, when I was just preparing to leave for Bangalore, going away from home for the first time.. It was a Nokia 3315! Nowadays, these old/

Had to travel from my place at BTM, to electronics city, where I had to go and get my "no dues" done ( an essential part of college life when leaving..)Events in a nutshell….-> only one particular bus could take us to e-city.. 373!-> waited for sometime in the signal, greedily hoping to get the bus there,instead of walking to the bus stop (I can hear some of my friends say "Anniyan avadharithu

Finally, my friend and me packed our bags, bid byebye to our good old hostel, and headed for our house! Packed our bags is a total understatement I should say! We had to make two trips from hostel to house in Sumos..We totally underested our luggage, thinking that it would be 'a few suitcases and bags' And we ended up having atleast 23-25 huge polythene bags EACH apart from the suitcases !!! We

Searching for a house and finalizing it is not the end of story, we had a real novel experience with our broker. When you think back at the conversations and analyse every statement he makes, you understand that there is a lot more 'business' involved in it, they are not from the whartons, harvards or the IIMs, but they sure know how to make money! ( that too totally non-taxable :(We searched for

Me decided to move my blog from the active to the passive state, thanks to a friend who made me think about it again, when i had almost forgotten about my blog...

Of late, I have taken to extensive or excessive, I should say, crosswords and jumbles..The mind which is losing its acumen because of the mundane things which it is subjected to gets a new life when it comes across such challenging and fun stuff! It has almost become a part of my daily routine, I shoud say...Attend morning's class and then head straight to the library, for the Deccan herald and

The following was written while waiting for the train in the railway station! Though a slightly amateurish one, this is my first try at poetry and hence its pretty special.... During moments of despair, When the heart feels insecure, A blitz emerges from somewhere, and reminds of all your goals that you need to procure. The mind adopts self defense, Re-emphasizing its stand of supreme control,

First one here.. starting on a 'homely' note...Nothing like being at home for navratri.... Now here comes another "I miss Home,I miss Chennai" stuff from me. When it comes to the traditional hindu festivals, banglore is extremely pathetic! At least the part of the city in which I stay is pathetic I should say.. Here comes navratri with all its festivities, grandeur and charm, ad here I am
