The REAL Indian rockstars!
So, you just finished watching an episode of your favourite reality show. Yes, that very reality show that promises to change the lives of simple, ordinary yet extremely talented people and skyrocket them to fame. But many years have now passed since the first reality talent hunt aired on Indian television screens and I’m yet [...]
Welcome the reality matrimony madness!
The year was 2002. Sony Entertainment Television aired promos of a new show and the star attraction was none other than Madhuri Dixit herself! It was dubbed as “India’s first reality television show” with the concept of arranging marriages on national television. I guess classifieds in newspapers or the matrimonial websites were not enough and [...]
5 things I hate about the IPL!
From the drama that started with auction of the players to the last minute change of the venue for the event, the Indian Premier League (IPL) has shown us a bit of everything! Dubbed as India’s DESI EPL (except for the different game being played here), the IPL brings about tons of things to cheer [...]
SMS Phishing is here! Beware!

Activating Facebook Mobile Texts on unsupported carrier
Just a few weeks back, you must’ve noticed a notification in your Facebook account informing you about the launch of Facebook Mobile Texts. What Mobile Texts basically does is offer you functionality similar to Twitter on Facebook. This existed previously on Facebook as well but the number of service providers & countries was limited. So, [...]
Gandhi and his ‘Spiritual Wife’

The article goes something like this : …There was a woman in Mahatma Gandhi’s life with whom he had contemplated ‘spiritual’ marriage. Rajmohan Gandhi’s recent book on the Mahatma more than hinted at this alliance. V.N. Datta, a historian who has been researching this relationship, talks [...]
Manmohan Singh invites hotties home!
Now here’s a hilarious piece of news… Security Breach at the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s Residence. Yes, two hotties along with a gay looking bloke entered the Prime Minister’s residence, 7 RCR (Race Course Road). They drove up to the main gate in a black Sonata which bore the registration number “DL4C V 0006“. The [...]
Defeating the block
I think most of you know about the Indian Govt.’s blog block. Blogspot, Typepad and Geocities have been totally blocked. Even I have been affected because the original Uthfull is hosted on Geocities. OK… I don’t visit or update that site anymore but still I don’t want it to be blocked because of the Indian [...]
The Lost Values
Have we lost our basic values? Well they’re not even moral values but basic manners. I went to my friends house the other day and I was shocked to learn that the guy does not even posses the basic manners. His housemaid forgot to bring me a glass of water I had asked her to. [...]
The Bayer Scandal
I don’t know how old or new this scandal is. I just happened to read about it on Sushubh’s blog. An American drug company, Bayer, dumped medicine infected with the HIV/AIDS virus in Spain, Japanand Asian countries because they wanted to make a profit after the US govt. directed them to remove the infected drug [...]
