So there has been a big drama again in College. We had an HR Conclave. It happened that two of our star performers from college were denied opportunity to give presentation in conclave. To add to that injury juniors were given opportunity.Many interested students were not invited and kept out of the conclave.As per reputation the council members favoured their brethen for invitation and screwed

We had been to GRG College in Coimbatore for AIMA management games competition. We had won the initial round and went to participate in regional finals.Our Dean called us in his office to give his best wishes. I was about to leave, but then decided that I will meet him.Before wishing us good luck he sees that I am not wearing my I Card around my neck. He smiles and says give me 100Rs as a fine

Last week I,SG,MD and GK went to Landmark book shop in Kormangala. This is the place where I love to spend time more.I can be in this place for whole day and yet not get bored.I went to the book shop to purchase some new books on Business.

Finally the jamboree of US Presidential elections are over. All the Analysts, Prophesists, Political Pundits can go back to their cells and now we can have something new. US Presidential Elections always have an aura of being an international event.For more than a month, more than half of International section of Times Of India used to be occupied by the coverage of election campaign of

So I happened to go to see movie in Urvashi Theater yesterday.I went to see 'Rock On'.When I was in Mumbai,watching movies was like a bane for me.I dont know why but I dont like watching movies.But after coming to Bangalore and joining B School,suddenly things have changed.Last week I saw Ram Gopal Varma's 'Phoonk' and this week I saw Rock On. What actually happened is that 2 girls in our college

In the battle camp,a soldier prepares to go to bring his wounded friend back from the field.His captain says,"No use,your friend will be dead by the time you bring him". But the soldier still goes and brings back his friend.Seeing dead body, captain says"I told you its not worth it.He's dead".Soldier replies "NoSir it was really worth it.When I got to him,my friend saw me,smiled and said his last

So lets see what was hot this week in newspapers. The most important recent news is that MJ Akbar is no more Editor in Chief of Asian Age newspaper.I loved to read his bylines and articles in newspaper and frequently used to visit his blog.This is black day for journalism. "..ON THE morning of March 1, MJ Akbar — founder editor of The Asian Age and Deccan Chronicle and a legend in his time — was

So I left Orkut.From past couple of weeks there has been sudden deluge of bad events in my life.It seems god has gone full to angry on me. I just can’t understand how come all things have started to go awry. Its not that I am not used to bad events.What makes this period notorious in my jeewan ki ram kahani is the fact that I had received couple of good news and that very goods turned out to be

Ghost of inflation is back to haunt. Inflation this week surpassed 6%. There are chances that interest rates of loans will be further increased to cool off inflation. Finance minister has already given indication for this. This means that EMIs for loans are going to increase further. This means that EMI for loans will increase further and taking loans will also be costly. I had planned to take

Last week we celebrated Holi. I celebrated Holi in Mumbai after a gap of around 7-8 years. Last time I had celebrated Holi was before taking admission in engineering. This year a day before Holi I got call from Amit. He told me to come early morning to his place for holi celebrations. So next day I went to his home. Before I could reach his home I was assaulted by water and colours by people on

These days I am too much interested in US Presidential Elections. Its not only me….may be its whole world who is all ears to listen the issues being raised there. Specially to listen the views of Candidates on Iraq, Terrorism and US foreign policy. This year there is not much fuss over Outsourcing issue. May be Americans are too pre occupied over problems at home.So John Edwards has quit the race

Its so cold here in Mumbai. Mercury has dropped too much and has broken many past records of winter season.By this time Mumbai normally returns to its hot,sweaty atmosphere but not this time.Entire North India is engulfed in cold wave.On Saturday evening I got call from PS. She had called me after a long time. She asked if I can meet her at any Coffee shop. I was at home whole day and was aneways

Tommorow is 26th January. Republic day of India. So tomorrow there will be glorious march pass in New Delhi at Vijay Ghat.Whole nation will be colored with Indian tricolor and nationalism will be at its peak. It will be at peak only for that day.

So American economy is slowly recovering from very low growth. The acceleration in exports had lead to 4.9% growth in GDP in July-Sept quarter . Hope this decreases probability of recession.If recession happens in America, then will it have adverse effects on Asian economies? That is something to be looked for. Weak labour market, sub prime crisis, and weak consumer spending may be giving

There has been lots of action in Indian Political scene these days. In Gujrat, Narendra Modi sweept the polls by winning 117 of 182 seats. His emphatic win was a huge blow to Congress and many political pundits who predicted his downfall.This win is an eye opener for everyone. For Media, Politicians and Indians in general.If you have noticed, right from the beginning media, in general, was

On 3rd December 1984 there was a leak of Methyl Isocyanide(MIC) in Union Carbide factory in Bhopal.More than 20,000 people died due to the leak of poisnous gas which is considered as the worst accidents in human history.Union Carbide didnt give any adequate compesation to the affected population.There has still case being going on.This Union Carbide was purchased by Dow Chemicals last year.Now

So BSE Sensex has crossed 18,000 mark. It took just 8 working days to take market from levels of 17K to 18K. The Bull run was led by buoyant FII inflows.I read couple of newspapers and saw in news on various channels that how media has gone gung ho on this. As if India has achieved some thing very great.This inspite of the knowledge that only handful of people have benefitted from this bull run.

I came across this nice story in Economic Times,This is how aid money for poor farmers ends up in politicians pockets.The Maharashtra government last week decided to extend its guarantee to loss-making sugar co-operatives trying to raise fresh money. A closer look at the list of the ailing mills makes it clear the cause of losses and the reason behind the government’s generosity. Many

When the Constitution of India was written it was expected that the Prime Minister and major cabinet ministers would be from Lok Sabha(lower house),ie who are directly elected by people.Though there is no rule stating that Rajya Sabha members can't be ministers; it was unwritten rule that major Union Ministry posts should be held by people who have worked for long time at grass root levels.This

Last week I came back from Delhi. I had been there with MD of my company to negotiate new pricing structure of our software with our client which will suit them.I was fired by my current company in month of September itself but people in my current company insisted that I should stay for a month or more so that before I leave things will be in better condition.Before trip I prepared a lenghty

Everyone in my family is busy these days. Last week my sis got job and she has decided to shift in a new city for work. I and my brother spent most of the time out of home due to work or some other reason. At that time my sister was the only companion of my mother. Now when she is not there my mother is feeling too lonely at home. She has no one to discuss the plots of Ekta Kapoor soaps, rumours

Things are too tough for me these days. Its difficult to manage many things at one time. Since last month I have been busy arranging and attending meetings with MD of my company. Since I will be leaving this company soon, he wants to know each and every detail about my [mis]doings in India before I am relieved. After whole day of work I attend classes for .Net at NIIT which I joined recently.

Dandiya season is over and now I am back to work and studies.On the last day of Garbha I dared to play dandiya with small kids of my society.While I was dancing with them I saw one kid was a bit scared and was hitting with dandiya stick very slow.In dandiya u dance in circles and the pair with whom ur are dancing keeps on changing.

My preparation for CAT is not up to mark. God knows what percentile I will get. I have been very busy these days with my teaching assignments and finishing the remaining work in my current company which I am about to leave. The teaching part is pretty nice. I love to teach, preach and bore people and now I am doing the same. Best part is I am also been paid for it!! In my first lecture of GMAT I

On 6th Sept festival of a Ganesh Chaturthi got over. This was the 11th day of the much awaited festival. People from all over the city came to beach to immerse the Idols(Visarjan) in sea. These are the Pics I took at 11.30PM . Its pretty late but even at this time the road is too crowded and people are praying, dancing and singing. My friend Amit called me late at night to come to see the

After 15 days I will be jobless. Cat is out. I got a call from my MD that company has decided to fire me. Last 2 months have been very bad for my company. We have lost two of our clients and things are not going fine with our only remaining client in India. I had been receiving indications from my company that they expect me to put down my papers. I was trying hard to keep things in place and was

The only thing which I hate apart from attending business meetings and watching saas-bahu soaps, is Shaving.I love sporting a beard. I shave only when it is necessary ie. only if I have to go for some Business Meeting to meet our clients or if I am going to meet some girl. Now I also shave before going for any family functions. There are many reasons for my hate of shaving. My skin is very

If you people are wondering where I had disappeared for few weeks then the answer is my life was in disarray due to 3 terrorists. Last couple of weeks was horrible for me. My cousin Sisters had come to our place for Rakhi. They came with their 3 kids. I was very happy to see these three cute kiddos. But in just one day they showed their true colors. Later I realized that our home is ravaged by

Sometimes things happen unexpectedly, which you think only happens in films.Something amazing happened last week which I am going to share with all you now.Background: I have a friend Manisha. I have never met her. We came across each other in an Orkut community. We regularly shared our views on branding, marketing, business etc. Then we started having chat on Google talk.

Yesterday I was going through my old notebooks searching for address of one my friends. At that time I came across a page on which my friend Harit had written an essay on ‘If I were a Prime Minister’. When I was in Delhi we had a power failure in afternoon. Harit and Milind who were enjoying cartoon on television came to me. I was engrossed in some work and inorder to keep them busy I gave then a

After so many days I traveled in local train. I had to go to visit my brother in law who was admitted in hospital in lower Parel. Since I have arrived in Mumbai I am avoiding local trains. Its not that I am scared away by Terrorist acts in it…it’s just that I don’t want to travel in now-too-crowded trains. BEST buses are the best. Now by BEST I don’t mean they are best, it’s the name of Mumbai

For the past 3 days I have not stepped out of home. Courtesy… non stop torrential Mumbai rains. I like rains but hate it when it rains too much. I hate to walk on road with puddles and pot holes. You have to be very careful while walking on road during this season. There are few morons who love to drive and splash good puddle water on you making beautiful brown pattern on your clean clothes.

“Akhand Ramayan” was organized in our society temple on 24th and 25th June. For people who don’t know, Akhand Ramayan is an event held in temple in which entire Ramayan is recited(by singing) non stop.Ramayan is a big epic which describes victory of Lord Rama over evil Ravana. It takes 1 ½ day to complete entire ramayan.Entire 24th and 25th I was in temple being part of Akhand Ramayan. I served

I just got up from sleep. Its only 7.30 AM in morning. Dad is preparing to go to office and in this process he has turned entire home upside down. Mom is fully co-operating him to make situation perfect replica of havoc. Its not that this is happening today….. but it’s a daily nautanki. After taking bath dad comes out in towel from bathroom and directly heads for small temple made in kitchen.

A post after a long time…..After coming Mumbai I have become too lazy. Since the day I reached home I am doing nothing but sleeping and eating. For first couple of days Mom was happy that his son has arrived. But soon she was bored of me and is trying to devise methods to throw me out of home. I am not angry on her…no one would like a person sitting at home whole day doing nothing but watching TV

No I am not working as some Ramu Kaka at someone’s home, but this is story of my own place. After firing of my first maid, I am struggling hard to keep everything at place. No wonder firing of my second maid Shakuntala is also on table. I am thinking over it.Last Saturday I went to my

Outside on terrace Harit,Miling along with their friends were playing this game. After Electric power failure I came out of room. As soon as the kids saw me standing outside, they forced me to join the game. I asked how to play this

In olden days people used to keep a rooster to wake them up. I have kept a maid. I gave a quick glance at my watch, 11 O’Clock. Good she is in time.I grabbed my Tee Shirt and went to open the door.

It is really very sad to see that the educated and knowledgeable people are not respected in this country. Those playing as tail wagging dogs displaying their loyalty to Politicians are awarded.

It Rained It rained yesterday. Along with rain there were hails too. Atlast there was a bit of relief from heat for some time. Sunrays are so scorching that they are enough to turn a dark guy like me to a perfectly black body within few minutes. I thought of enjoying the rainy showers, but rejected the idea. I sat on my terrace and watched kids of society shouting and playing in rain. Winds

At night I came home and was greeted by an unwelcome guest. He had made himself comfortable in a corner of room. That was a cockroach. I have dreaded fear of this creature. What is it called…cock-o-phobia…er…no. People can misunderstand. Cockroahophobia. Ya this is perfect. I remembered the scene of Mr India and decided to call bachcha party to tackle this situation. I called Harit and Milind.

I am so happy today. Royal Bengal Tiger is going back to his den. That is my father is going back to Mumbai. After a week of hassle I am free now…I cant express how happy I was to see Rajdhani speed away from Nizammudin station. It took me two full days to clean my room. After lot of jhanjat and mehnat everything was in place. I hid all my music CDs and porn magazines, remove all the posters

What will happen in future you just can’t imagine. I pondered today on this and was amazed. In my life I have seen enemies turning to friends, once powerful people turning weakest and so on. If I would have known about my future in past, I would have laughed at myself and others.I still remember in my school days my tuition teacher made me stand and gave a long lecture to be a good student. I was

After a brief stay in Bangalore I came back to delhi. The power cuts in this place will drive me crazy. There is no light for most of the afternoon.The stay in Bangalore was quite pleasant. I enjoyed hanging around Residency and MG road. Every evening Sudhir used to pick me from my Hotel and take me around the City. I always love being in Bangalore. Its such a beautiful place with beautiful

This had been a very topsy turvy week. There were things which went right and there were things that went wrong. So thought of jotting down what went right and what went wrong.First the things that went wrong…1) Selling furniture came out to be a big head ache. I had to follow the Vipin(who purchased most of the furniture) whole week to pick the furniture on time.2) Data uploading utility was

In afternoon I called Vipin Tripathi. He told that tomorrow night (ie on 11th March) he will be taking away all the purchased furniture. I was relieved by this. At that time Manik came. He told that he has resigned from his company and is planning to go to Mumbai to find to new job.I told him that it’s a good decision. He was there at my home till evening. At 8.00Pm Stevan and Diana came. Diana

It was such a nice day….so cool. A real change after so many days of stress. From last four days I was in lot of stress. I had to shift from Gurgaon. After haphazardly selling furniture I was waiting for the people to come and take them. The person who purchased the furniture was out of city. After trying his cell for whole day I wasn’t able to contact him. If he doesn’t turn up by next day then
