Guy of the 90s

A lot of my time these days is consumed by work on BTP. It certainly is exciting and i am also very anxious as we are getting close to the launch. The reviews have been good, and the response for our pre-launch buzz has been equally good. We got coverage in WATblog and Alootechie (links below)

The btp team is excellent, and is a great relief at time of pressure situations. One thing they need not learn is crisis management as it looks like they are born with that degree.

1. Mobile phone, 2. Laptop and 3. TV set.
Technology has definitely made life easier [...]

I saw umpteen number of blog posts bashing up the entire concept and execution of the now infamous show “rakhi ka swayamar”. That by itself conveys the fact that it has achieved which any tv show would want – attention. This is not a post to glorify the program, but to see it in a [...]

I have been caught a couple of times for zig zag trail in my car, but getting caught for drunken flying is taking it to a whole new level. 28 pilots have been found to have consumed alcohol prior to flying the planes, and kingfisher, being true to its name tops the list. Actually speaking, [...]

I for one am a snooker addict. I just love the game, and not just coz it doesnot involve too much of physical exert. The green velvet, the red balls, the elusive black, the snooks, the fouls, the sound of clatter of balls, i find it all too attractive. And the best part is, you [...]

There is a movie called Aalanvandhan (Abhay in hindi), starring kamal hassan which made more news about his beefed up body than the actual movie itself which sank without a trace. He plays a dual role, one representing the god and the other, devil, with the actual thought process being to reflect the two sides [...]

As one of the new initiatives to shape up life, i decided to shape myself up first, and get rid of the booze bubble that doesnot let my pants fit. The health coach wasnt least bit amused by the answers on the questionnaire, and gave me a look which only my school principal ever gave [...]

Today, i got older by an year. Every birthday, i ensure that i spend some time on reflections. An opportunity to look back and take decisions that might avoid me going down the valley. The last one year has been probably the most satisfying in that sense, meaning a lot of learnings to get wise [...]
