The more I read news about terrorist attacks in different corners of the world, the more I feel how misguided those people are. Trying to underscore the supremacy of one particular religion and killing innocent people in its name – what a shame. I have been reading a bit about Islam lately, its genesis, its…Read more Life of Muhammad

Every gush of this aromatic air feels like countless blessings from the parched lips of sun-scorched mother earth. Oh this fragrance, this pious  amalgamation of dust and thirst-quenching rain drops is filling my head. My entire body is invigorating and oozing a certainly new level cosmic energy. Standing in my balcony, I am watching  the…Read more One fine evening

Wow ! First two months at Microsoft just passed in the blink of an eye. I must say, so far it has been a mixed experience. Initial few days were quite tough. Right from getting out of my comfort zone and meeting new people to completely different environment; things were complicated. I was really not…Read more Welcome to Microsoft !

It was a normal evening. Tangerine dusk was losing its sheen to ascending moon coming tiptoed with refulgent darkness. We had just returned from LC but our arguments on illogical topics wouldn't dare to come to a full stop. I escaped the discussion to change my dress and get some fresh air. While I was…Read more The Last Date

So, I thought about my “must-watch-movies-before-I-die” list.

I was feeling likewise since the last two days. Everything…Read more ‘Change’ always comes bearing gifts

  F.R.I.E.N.D.S A few minutes ago, I watched the last episode of 10th season of Friends. An era has come to an end. I truly believe that whenever these seven alphabets will be written in caps with a period separating them, it will boil down to this single magnum opus. I can still feel my…Read more F.R.I.E.N.D.S

    Yesterday I watched Casablanca. Only two words are sufficient to epitomize this movie - ABSOLUTE CLASSIC!! Initially I was a bit hesitant to watch this black & white movie made some ages ago in 1942, but trust me, the attempt paid off. Today I watched it third time and can still repeat some…Read more Casablanca

Just now that appalling news punctured my ear drum. I was torn to the core. The “Clark Kent” of cricket has hung his boots. That little man with super human capabilities won’t be donning the blue jersey any further.   It was way back in 1998 when I heard his name being spoken at every…Read more …but Sachinism will stay !!!
