“Tarpaye tarsay re…saari raat jagaaye…pyaar tera …Dilli ki sardi” These line from hindi film says all about the character of Delhi Winter.  This year tempratures in delhi has been below than the normal. I am still enjoying hot water bath and my cosy layer of quilts. Weekends are best spend at homes being a couch potatao munching popcorns and watching television.
BUt next weekend will be not so comfortable. I have to shift home. So there are so many things will have to be rearranged and taken care of. Cable TV, internet …

 We humans always wanted to fly and rule the skies. Modern age has literally brought flying within the reach of common man. With India skies opening up there are airlines that are trying every trick in the book to lure the customers. Good we are flying places.
 
But on the flip side, airports have become crowded and the sky seems to be choked with the air traffic. Scenes at airports are no different from a railway stations. Long queues, delayed flights, frustrated passengers and airline staff carrying a plastic smile with …

I never felt away in my country. Mumbai over the last few months have been like visiting my backyard. But this visit to our financial capital has left me thinking. This trip was marred by apprehensions and fear of being a so-called outsider. There has been riot situation across Mumbai where a group of fanatic was out on streets rioting

Mumbai life seems to come to a halt. The nerve of mumbai the local transport was completely broken. It took me 30 min to reach my guesthouse, what would have been …

Good Morning Monday. Hmmm.. You are here again to pull me out of my cozy quilt. Since the day I am introduced to you I wished you missed your date with new week. But you come week after week without fail. Wonder why don’t you go on sick leave or take a casual leave.
 
But then on second thought, If you don’t come the life would not move.  There will be no office and no work. There will be no motivation to work and even no excitement to look forward to the weekend. What is the …

Three more days of agonizing wait when I’ll get to see my bank account buzz with my monthly funding (My Salary But of course). On my shopping list would be grocery, vegetables, household stuff and woof… my account will be looking like a desert by 10th of the month.
This left me wondering what people with fat balances have on their shopping list. Many like to sprulz on themselves, some like to go on world tour, few will buy private planes and liners and for fewer it will mean real serious …

Bakar Bakar on Channels about Zero degree temprature (Forecasted for Today) in Delhi has hogged the limelight on prime time slots for last few days.
News channels and Newspaper has debated it out more than they do the annual budget or general election. It become the talking point in offices. Few of my friends from across seven seas even me asked what we are going do to battle the freezing cold.
Now that the day today is coming to an end and there is no sign of Zero in Delhi. It seems …

Prince Charles of Great Britain has become the longest waiting Prince in queue to the thrown. And what a wait.. more than 59 years. Long live the queen.
But then it reminds of difference between Purab and Paschim. Where else but in so called under developing nations like India and Pakistan one would sacrifice the power and chair for the children.
Not to glorify anyone but earlier Ms. Gandhi and now Mr. Zardari has taken chosen to pave way for their children (People may choose to call this political compulsions).
I think sacrifice …

Harbhajan’s controversial spat with Symond has come to an end. The outcome though was bit predictable with BCCI literally arm-twisted the cricketing giant with a threat to abandon the tour. So the charges against our turbunator were mellowed.  Now, we will have Harbhajan and Symond once again battling it out at field in the upcoming one dayers.
Whatever it may be but cricket is no longer seems to be a Gentleman’s game for sure.

 Every print and news media in India was clogged with news of a organ trade unearthed in millennium city of Gurgaon. This racket, which was operational in major part of country, was run by group of surgeons for last 6-7 years.
They have state of the art medical setup to operate and transplant organs of needy to their rich and effluent clients in India and overseas. They were minting money by exploiting the poor and needy by luring them with money or false job promises.
But what gives them this opportunity is …
