I still remember the day when my friend was talking about some message he has put on some social networking site and how his school friends started commenting on it and it finally turned into a nice war of words, a battle of sexes. Apparently he was talking about orkut and I was not getting a single word he said. He sent me an invite and then I realized that I am already a user, just am not using it. That was in my graduation second year. Continue reading “Orkut is dead, Facebook is Dying!!!”

Smoking Kills! But that’s not the point
I recently read now there will be pictures of cancerous mouths on every cigarette pack. Another initiative of the government to discourage people from smoking, I fail to understand the sense behind these initiatives. Continue reading “Smoking Kills! But that’s not the point”
All back to normal, allll isz well!!!
Came Friday the 12th and went by; Sharukh’s ‘My Name is Khan’ released with pack houses and a big smile on his face. No interruption from Shiv Sena, praise for the Maharashtra CM and of course big grin on all the anti Thakrey communities on facebook, orkut, myspace. Continue reading “All back to normal, allll isz well!!!”
Am just saying!
Past few days have been very happening and it felt as if I was missing all the action due to my in-activeness. It all began with the IPL auctioning in which Pakistani players were left out. Later Shahrukh Khan criticized the incident, Shiv Sena supremo Mr. Bal Thakrey in turn criticized Shahrukh Khan and threatened the release of another Khan’s crappy movie ‘My name is Khan’. Am just saying! Continue reading “Am just saying!”
Sherlock Holmes
Am not a great reader and of all the few novels I have read till date there has been one series which got me hooked the Sherlock Holmes. The simple explanations based upon good observation and logical analysis is indeed catchy and hence I was eagerly waiting for the movie. Continue reading “Sherlock Holmes”
The Day I was Plagiarized
In July 2008, our college gave us a simple assignment of management lessons from our ancient scriptures; I wrote about Ramayana. Although the assignment was never submitted but it got published here, as Management and Ramayana. The post became popular and on Google it was once the top result. Continue reading “The Day I was Plagiarized”
2009 is going
The New Year eve is couple of days away and everyday the newspapers are filled with numerous ads all the discs, pubs, lounges in and around the city are coming up with various deals. Just a few days back me and a friend happened to stroll to a disc at the wee hours of night and enquired about the charges and stuff. The bouncer at the entrance told us in his baritone only couple entry, no stags. Continue reading “2009 is going”
The CR’s …
Everyday I receive 2-3 mails atleast from my class CR [the CR can be interpreted in many ways but here lets just keep it to Class representative]; not just me but each and every student of the class; no our class CR is not indulged in spamming, trying to sell us some product; she is just doing her job. Continue reading “The CR’s …”
Avatar
After 2012 if any movie was powerfull enough to drag me to a theatre then it had to be Avatar. Thanks to the college authorities for giving us first half of Friday completely free, we went to watch the movie [rare case of not missing lectures to do so] and sat there for the 150 minutes of runtime. Continue reading “Avatar”
Remember Remeber – History making November!!!
After the November of 2007 I had forgotten about the CAT; remember ‘Remember Remember the CAT November’? But this year all of sudden the month of November again reminded me about the CAT madness, primarily due to two reasons; one my brother appeared and this time it was online. Continue reading “Remember Remeber – History making November!!!”

The Man with The Mask!!!
I woke up on a dark morning,
Crawled out of my warm bed.
Dragging myself i saw this man.
Never seen before, he is the man with mask.
2012
Alright it is after a long time I am writing a movie review. Not because I was absent from the usual movie watching business, but my exams have kept me a little busy this time. This reminds me, I guess this is probably the last post till 25th of this month [which am eagerly waiting, my exams end the same day]. Anyways getting back to the task at hand; movie review! For some time my friend was bugging me with the release date of 2012; not because it was highly anticipated but it was falling right before my exams; so I had to watch it. Its not that I didn’t want to but I might have given it a miss. To talk about the movie in one straight line, it is like any other disaster movie just on larger scale. You get to see where they spent 200 million dollars. Continue reading “2012”
The Golden Age???
The result of recent assembly polls was as expected. No big surprises and for a change the exit polls were more or less upto the mark. However surprise came to me after the results, when an overjoyed congress spokesperson said that Indian polity is now unipolar and the golden age of one party rule is back. Continue reading “The Golden Age???”
Diwali Spirit!
Diwali went by last week; one of the most auspicious festivals of India is over. In my earlier post last year on Diwali we talked about how this festival is different from others. It is on the final festival day that there is nothing much to do. Well you know not everyone is into playing flash or drinking. Moreover bursting crackers is losing its charm [thanks to various drives- no to crackers; save environment; stop child labor]. Then all the markets are closed so no shopping; you have met with all the friends during the gift distribution ceremony so no one to visit either [lets not get into details you can have a look here Diwali Day].
