  • Scott Turow & Why I Read The Way I Read

    Fiction has always been my thing. I find it wild — one person sits down and imagines everything, entire worlds, the people, the characters, out of nothing. Gives them light, dark, grey. Makes them real enough that you forget it’s made up. If you are too much into it, you kind of miss them when… Continue reading

  • Boring? Errr..It’s Happy

    As I mentioned in my last blog, slowly (and proudly), I am turning old school. And having said that, I think I always had a bit of old school-ism in me. Old school in terms of not wearing a smart watch and prefer the traditional kind. Not reading books or news on mobile but prefer… Continue reading

  • Likes, Social Media and Your Story

    It is a glorious day here in Mumbai. And let’s hope for the weather to be brilliant wherever you are. So, do one thing today. Spare some time, grab a coffee and open your X/ Facebook/ Instagram account. You must be wondering- what is the fuss about? You have already scrolled the reels and feeds… Continue reading

  • Change Your Story

    Our lives are the story we tell ourselves. It is amazing how much we are conditioned to think against ourselves. If we are thinking something good about ourselves, chances are we are not doing it sincerely. Why is that so? Because we fear that we may jinx something which is happening in the background and… Continue reading

  • Alexa! Find What I Like.

    A few days ago, I read this book ‘Who moved my cheese?’. There was one question in it- What would you do if you weren’t afraid? I put this as my WhatsApp status and got a few replies. And I also realised something- maybe the question is not about what I would do if I… Continue reading

  • The Peace Within

    In 2013, I had this plan of driving my brand new i20 on the Golden Quadrilateral route. (Delhi-Mumbai-Chennai-Kolkata) Itineraries were made and then torn away to give way to the new ones. Friends were informed of the soon-to-be-confirmed one hell of a trip. It was just waiting to happen. It never happened. Today, in 2023,… Continue reading

  • Being Generous in Praises

    You have left home for your office. The traffic is unusually heavy. Most of the traffic signals are red and are crossed in the 2nd attempt. And of course, the cows believe that the roads are grasslands and refuse to budge. The radio isn’t playing songs of your favorite singer. And then right at the… Continue reading

  • Discovery

    I watched Ranbir Kapoor starrer Rockstar in 2011, the weekend it was released. It was a normal movie for me at that time. A few years later; I watched it again on some channel to kill time. It was the same. Nothing different. No difference. And recently; I watched it again to kill time. Something… Continue reading

  • Grateful

    Time travels fast. Two years ago, I was writing my name on the society register everyday before going out. Those were unknown, unseen times. We were in the middle of government imposed lockdown due to rapid spread of COVID-19. Apart from essential services, everybody had to stay home. As I had to go out for… Continue reading

  • Two Kinds of Happiness

    In today’s world, we will hardly find a guy/girl who has everything. Most of us need more money, some need respect and status; a few need the latest LCD and a Ray-ban aviator. You got the drift. Well, I would like some me time. Some free time to do things. Things I know I will… Continue reading
