I have always admired precise, legitimate, wise, compassionate, rational decision-making. Because ultimately the decisions we take in our lives from time to time craft our destiny. Recently I happened to have a conversation with a friend of mine on the same topic. What we arrived at in the conversation is this – when we have…

When social media applications like Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram became part of our life, one of the most popular features in those applications are stories or statuses. I have observed something, and when I discussed it with my very close friends I confirmed that my observation was quite right and it is very simple. Even…

I happened to notice a candle with a glass base and exotic fragrance for the first time in Jaipur a couple of years back. I was damn busy those days and I couldn’t buy it from there. Later I searched for the candles often at different places but I didn’t get them. I left it…

I used to cut my hair and set my beard at my friend’s salon where I have a hairstylist from Darjeeling. When the COVID pandemic started he went home and couldn’t come back and I had to depend on other people at the salon. I tried different people, later different salons, but no one could…

Today the 67th Indian National Film Awards were announced for 2019 and “Asuran” (meaning Demon) won the best Tamil language film, and Dhanush who played the protagonist in it won the best actor of the year. I personally love this movie, and I have watched it multiple times both in theatres and later on OTT…
