That thing called safety

Watch this
“Intelligence failure”. Words that are bandied about so easily. “New York and London saw ghastly attacks, nothing has happened since. Words all of us have spoken at some point in the last few months as blasts have rocked Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Guwahati, Malegaon. Why have we failed to monitor activities of suspicious people? Why [...]

Thoughts on Bombay

Why?
Should the media not disclose that the HLL Board, MPs etc are trapped inside. Doesn’t it increase risk for them
Only now (at 11 15 am) have TVs been disconnected inside the hotels. Shouldn’t they have done this earlier?
NDTV reported last night that telephone lines were jammed and TVs went off at around 9 last night, [...]

God

Please let the madness end. It’s nearly 2 30 am now and I’ve been glued to my television set since around 10 30 pm.
At least 80 dead and 200 injured. Two hotels seiged. Top cops are dead.

Edited to update:
This is sooo freaky! I put this post up yesterday and look what I [...]

A set a la Koffee with Karan, with Karan Johar playing interviewer / moderator, call it what you will and the cast of Dostana on the couches..they were having champagne though. It was largely entertaining, with the mandatory silliness from Priyanka and [...]

Vegetarian Nazis

I’m a vegetarian, have always been one and I don’t even like egg. In the sense that I am a vegetarian because we’re Brahmins and my parents raised me on a vegetarian diet and I just can’t bring myself to eating non vegetarian food now. As regards eggs I don’t eat them directly (boiled egg [...]

Yes they did

What a day! Obama did pull it off..what Bradley effect?! I watched his acceptance speech and actually had goosebumps listening to him talk..watching the wild cheering crowds, tears glistening in their eyes, nodding and so involved in what the man had to say.
And I found myself wondering, if that could ever happen in our country. Will [...]

Tata Sky Gul Panang boob
