We use to live in a world where they said that too much sleep was the sign of laziness. The interesting this is that this thought went too far that now we battle the problems of having less sleep. Is’t that ironic, We change our lifestyles hoping for the better and it back fires. What no one ever really gave thought is even initially it was not sleep that people were against. It was the to waking up late in [...]
Folks from Kerala who ask me where I went to school are sometimes surprised when I say I went to a school in Meenchanda. Because Meenchanda in Malayalam means fish market. There are some funny guys who respond back and say “Yes, we knew that from the moment we know you, you could not have gone anywhere else” Well that being said, my school days at NSS High School Meenchanda were one of the best times of my life. This [...]

Earlier there was nothing called a resume building process that is tightly coupled with a person’s career. You finish education, get on the first job that comes and then retire from that job.

The same prison also has Jeff Skilling the former CEO of Enron along with another 1000 inmates many of whom are charged for drug offences and even violent crimes like murder. As an Indian I wonder what would happen in India if we find someone (a politician) corrupt. May be we will never find [...]
Kahaani is already being reviewed as a good movie, Celebrity tweeters and common men all have in one voice said it is a nice thriller. More than the Thriller I liked the movie for being fast paced and much shorter that usual Bollywood flicks and that it did not unnecessarily drag even a bit. The ace effort was some good casting and characters in the story. Vidya Balan fit perfectly well into the role and I guess her first role in [...]
People wake up daily to something special. Some wake up only to the smell of fresh brewed hot coffee, some wake up dreaming of the breakfast they will have. Some wake up because their unfinished work from yesterday sets the alarm. All have their reasons, but mine is too special that I wait the whole night just to wake up to it.
