I am now Enflightened…

4:18 AM
Ok. I give up. I surrender. Uncle, whatever. But hey, I was ambushed!!! No fair. They told me that he was an actor, director and film maker. They told me he was born in Mumbai, trained in Sweden, a trained clown, an award winning performer and a magician. They also told me that...

The New Face of Indian Classical Music…

8:01 AM
By no stretch of the imagination am I even qualified to talk about music. But I am an avid listener and I react to different kinds of music with the different senses I’ve been blessed with. And what follows are just that… My reactions to a musical evening at The Park as part...

There’s a whole new world out there…and it’s on the run!!!

11:41 AM
No prizes for guessing where I was. And no, I am not surprised when you look shocked to see me in such active environs. I was just supposed to go there and fetch a friend visiting from Mumbai. But when I walked in…yes, I actually walked from the far away car park to...

…and we had…the Tim of our Lives…

10:46 AM
It happens so often. A new restaurant opens. And friends, family…everyone gets to try it before I do. And then I have to face a series of anxious foodies who think I’d enjoy the new place. Whether I’d like the food, or the place…the ambience, or even the economics…I’m lucky that there are...
