$10 or Rs500 – What does it mean to you?
Posted in India, Life, people, tagged people on November 23, 2008 | 14 Comments »
You must have watched this already. I saw it now and want to share with those who haven’t watched. When i asked myself this question i got two answers. 1. Five hundred is too less 2. Petrol for 500 rupees. What does it mean to you? There are things we take for granted so easily, [...]
MTV India sucks

It was one of my favorite channels a couple of years back, but now it sucks big time. The quality of shows on MTV has gone down drastically, and seems like morons (read Raghu) have taken over the channel and try to capture audience by bitching. Roadies was just a show, and now it’s almost [...]
Terrorism of politics

What does a politician want? What does a terrorist want? I think there is no one who can answer these questions, not even the sinners themselves. All that a group of terrorists do is kill people and create panic, and all that a group of politicians do is put blame on others. When there is [...]
Breaking the not-a-Movie-buff jinx
Posted in Life, people, Uncategorized, tagged movies on August 29, 2008 | 29 Comments »
How many movie reviews have i read in others’ blogs? by Nova – the marathon movie watcher, Meghana – a very close competitor, and Reema – another close competitor. Seems like a zillion. My comment would generally be ‘Oh ya.. got to watch that one. Adding to my must watch list‘, ‘I’d wanna skip that‘, [...]

Everything seems to be costing more but telecom services!

This last month or so, inflation seems to be sky rocketing without any bound. The dollar is again touching 43 rupees just when i shortlisted a DSLR to buy. Nearly 4 rupee rise per dollar would increase the cost of owning the DSLR by 12%. Though the rising dollar would be a good sign for [...]
Walking on a tight rope

Winning an election is one thing, running a successful government is a totally different thing. Having won the assembly elections with a near simple majority, BJP would soon realize this. 110 seats no good for forming a government in Karnataka. The effort it takes to form a government with the help of independent MLAs is [...]
