The Tissue

The maniacal bus drivers never stopped the bus, even at the designated bus stops. They only slowed down the old, rickety and monstrous vehicles. One had to push people aside, make their way to the exit and then jump off before the driver slammed his foot down on the accelerator pedal. I guess I pushed [...]

Love Aaj Kal

“Rahul bhai? Can you call me back when you’re free. It’s really important”. “Alright”, I said to my younger brother. An hour passed by and I remembered that I had to ring him. I picked up my phone and punched in his number. He picked up at the very first ring. Without wasting any time, [...]

Gandhiji Writes a Postcard contest

What do you do, when you’re the Department of Posts in India? Your profits are slipping, trust in your service is zero and the only people who use your services are the students who are forced to use the Speed Post to submit their application forms for various examinations. The competition postcards that you introduced [...]

Things women do!

Imagine a world in which all females just got up in the morning, threw some water over their head (no sweet smelling body wash in this world) and walked out of their houses. A world in which ladies walked around with sweaty, hairy underarms, untamed hair, gigantic eyebrows and even some hint of a moustache! [...]

Anil Ambani vs Mukesh Ambani, now via advertisements!

If the press conferences, meetings with the ministers, letters to the PM, interviews to news channels and dragging each other to court wasn’t enough, Anil Dhirubhai Ambani found yet another way to attack his brother – newspaper advertisements!

The League of Extraordinary Women in Indian politics

Watching Mehbooba Mufti assault the speaker of the J & K Assembly, I could not help but question whether or not these female politicians were in touch with their feminine sides. I am in no way trying to be sexist here or imply that all women must be soft-spoken, polite dainty darlings. Nor I am [...]

Excuse me, Sir…

But I really don’t give a fuck about what Vinod Kambli thinks of Sachin and the BCCI. I hardly care if a random person confesses to being unfaithful to his partner. I care about the people in this nation who are dying due to the draconian ways of Khap Panchayats. There are student leaders who [...]

The Resistive Touchscreen War : Nokia N97 vs HTC Touch Diamond2

One look at the above picture should be enough to make anyone drool! Yes, it’s Nokia’s flagship “Multimedia Computer” N97 along with the HTC Touch Diamond2. I had the fortune of playing with both these sexy gadgets this month and I’d like to share some views.
Let me disappoint anyone and everyone who is expecting that [...]

Is Delhi ready for the Commonwealth Games? No.

If one needed to know what foul smell actually is, he/she could simply head over to the Mukarba Chowk in Delhi. Situated right at the entrance of Delhi was this huge compost plant where tonnes and tonnes of garbage lay. The stench still remains but Mukarba Chowk has undergone a metamorphosis. The broken road that [...]

Untaught Lessons

I got the news while I had gone out to watch a movie. I just could not believe what I was reading. Was he playing a prank, was he lying? But what was written in the text message was definitely not something to joke about. His father had committed suicide. I called up the sender [...]
