Small chapters from my life, lessons learned and random thoughts.
Amitabh Bachchan recited this beautiful, inspiring poem in the closing moments of the historic KBC episode that saw, for the first time ever, a prize money of Rs. 7 crore (approx. USD 1.2 million) being won. The poem was written by Harivansh Rai Bachchan, Amitabh’s father, and it goes like this: लहरों से डर कर […]
I’m pretty happy with my Nexus 7. So far, no major complaints. Typing is a breeze. Gaming is fun. Reading books is very convenient. Watching movies is a pleasurable experience. Plus it’s running the latest Android–Kit Kat. For its accessories, I bought an OTG cable and a music case cum carry pouch. I’m enjoying every […]
Before yesterday I had never visited a shelter home as part of a corporate social responsibility initiative, in all my four years of corporate existence. Yesterday, along with a group of volunteers, I paid a half day’s visit to Cheshire Homes’ Delhi Unit to interact with its residents, differently-abled persons. Now I’m not sure how […]

… and how did YouTube approve his video as a featured one? It’s completely beyond me. 😛
Some of my recent camera clicks. Just another reason to use my HTC One X.
All the poor guys walking on the streets and dragging the weight of their bikes along with their own, you have my sympathies. Seven son-of-a-you-know-what punctures in just two days taught me to have sympathy with you guys. Don’t worry and believe me, everything’s gonna be all right, and pretty soon. Posted from HTC One […]
These days I’m obsessed with Sherlock Holmes. He’s a genius, a detective, a scientist, a consultant, a violinist, a boxer, and yet he doesn’t know (or doesn’t care to know) that the Earth revolves around the Sun. Why?
