EXPERIMENTERÉ

Pic Source: PWC-18 20's are a great time to spread those legs out on your sofa and munch a packet of Cheetos while thinking of what to wear to that party that awaits you on Friday night, and if you are edging out over the last few years of your 20s and find yourself living and working in a country like India, bless you because you won't run out of issues you "feel for" any time soon. I don't mean it in a bad way, but this is the best time to be a millennial in India. Every day comes wrapped with newer issues to fight for, and guess what, you have an audience for all your thought streams. Now writing a personal blog is fun for me, because this is only time I don't search the web for parallel narratives and sub-texts. No Huffington Post or Newyorker quotations will bore you.  As I make my way through the crowded metro in New Delhi, I can't help but notice the growing number of women now working in my city, and women of all types, the saree connoiss...

BHANSALI MOVIE DELAYED AND LAUNCHED UNDER FEAR.  Yet to understand why so much cry over a historical event by a variety of sections in our society? FOR all kinds of reasons best known to their circuit of intellectuals, or not.  The film poster made by Sanjay Leela Bhansali with the original name "Padmaati" outside a cinema hall in Nadi,Fiji Islands, South Pacifica region.  Note: Noone is supposed to get offended because this post is to inform and make a protest (if needed) after having all the information in place, not before that). Chor Minar near our place in South Delhi was built during Allaudin Khilji period. Around 800 years ago. Few points to be noted. 1. Almost forgot who Allaudin Khilji was. 2. Mild remembrance of the story of the Queen Rani Padmini  (until the movie happened) 3. Forgot the name of our Rajput king Raja Ratan Rawal Singh of Chittor (before Wikipedia ing it until late night last night) 4. Remembered every protest by the K...

As if all your memory  (virtual) just got lost or taken away. And you got to start from scratch.  So be it. SFS. As a friend said. You become stronger.  #reboot Pic source : Pacific_Travel guides

Also my first post in nearly six months. Just completed 60 days outside India. In between passed away Durga Puja, Diwali, the mandatory 15 day jetlag, and the constant setting up and settling down process and telling yourself that it shall pass soon. In a new and alien setup it's been a rivetting experience for me in every thing new. The water, air, the sky and the lands. I have never seen people celebrating an essentially hindoo festival in such fervour and harmony ever in my life. Buses with Diwali message, an ANZ bank ATM denoting the festival. You get everything here. My Delhi was confused if the air post Diwali was clean, cleaner or cleanest sans dirty minds. The iTaukei people are warm and had an opportunityto drink Kava was a Senior war veteran served in Lebanon this Diwali at Kolekars' place laced with traditional clapping after each drink. Quite a lot coming in. So keep keep looking out by this millennial (old) folk. 

Why India and Pakistan games are historically big? India captain Virat For A Millenial it's been a big deal for the love of cricket and regional supremacy, however good Cricket wins at the end of every high wired game. This time it's The Oval and it's been almost 2 Decades 18 years since we witnessed a proper 50 over game, last time was the t20 under MS. Dhoni, you are here today, history unfolding in front of you. The picture you shared with a rival captains infant son will go down in the history tof India Pakistan game. You, probably will be playing your last championship.

Virat, Bhai Hai and the young guns (guys) shall be booming today in full force. Ab dekhna Hai, how many wickets Pakistan can down for ( whatever) target they set. Twitter poll ends tonight. Who is going to win India or Pakistan? Picture source: Twitte...

Why the ICC Champions Trophy in its current format is a very Millenial thing. A big question also crops if the 8th ICC Trophy is its last? Will the 2017 ICC Trophy now pave way to an international test series going forward? These are the questions not known in the public domain? With Virat Kohli winning the toss in a crucial game tonight with South Africa and bowling first, which means India will be given a role of a chaser. Will we finish just fine? We need to finish it off really well.  When did ICC CHAMPIONS  trophy BEGIN? Was googling Wikipedia and stumbled upon this phrase where it's described that the   ICC Champions Trophy  is a  one day international  (ODI)  cricket  tournament and typically organised by the  International Cricket Council  (ICC). It is pretty prestigious in the sense that its only second in importance after the  Cricket World Cup .  Why ICC  CRICKET TOURNAMENT IS A MILLENIAL THING? Two ...
