Let’s start with a confession: I don’t like dogs. Yes, any dogs. Not your pampered poodle, not your tail-wagging Labrador, not even your adorable Indie rescue. And before you send me hate mail, I’ll say it straight — I’m even scared of them. Don’t know what childhood trauma caused it. Certainly not something a therapist […]
Let’s talk about the world’s most ignored pandemic No, not COVID. Not depression. Not diabetes. I’m talking about stress — the slow, silent serial killer that lives in your body rent-free, ruins your sleep, screws your gut, hijacks your brain, and walks you into an early grave. It’s everywhere. It’s in the workplace email at […]
As a founder, I meet a lot of people. Founders, funders, suit-clad speakers, TED talkers, unicorn chasers, even the occasional philosopher in a Patagonia fleece. Some walk in with energy. Some walk in with ego. And a few… walk in like they’re God’s gift to Earth. Let’s be honest some of them probably are half […]
Never in my 25 years of flying have I seen such mayhem. Will it fly, will it not? Now it’s boarding, now it’s not. There was shouting, screaming, panicky outbursts, troubling arguments between passengers and crew, almost physical punches being thrown (thank God it didn’t come to that). Exactly 17 years since my first trip […]
Suicide is a complex topic, often painted in broad strokes. Yet, I find myself seeing it in shades of gray areas rather than black and white. Let’s unpack this. Firstly, let’s be clear—I’m not here to romanticize suicide or offer it as a solution. No, sir. I firmly believe in extending a helping hand to […]
Rahul Gandhi, the Congress party’s golden boy and self-proclaimed messiah of the people, has yet again graced us with his profound wisdom. In his latest address, Gandhi spoke about ‘Shakti’ in Hinduism. The devout Shiv bhakt probably didn’t know that Shakti in Hinduism is Nari and the power of women. While his intentions may have […]
Ah, the grand spectacle of elections. A time-honored tradition where democracy dances with capitalism in a waltz of vested interests and ulterior motives. Let’s not delude ourselves with notions of noble civic duty; behind the facade of democracy lies a stage where the true players are not the voters, but the investors. Picture this: a […]
Once again, the nation finds itself at a crossroads as farmers take to the streets in protest, their demands echoing through the corridors of power. It’s hard not to wonder if this sudden surge in protest is more about a political agenda than genuine grievances, especially with national elections looming large on the horizon. However, […]
For a very long time, I have believed IPL to be the best scripted reality show. In fact, the most socialist scheme ever, where the rich invests money and poor gets entertainment. Be it Bollywood movies, TV shows, reality shows or cricket, nowadays it is becoming difficult to differentiate between all of them. Cricket has […]
The Fallacy of India Alliance: A Crumbling Antimodi Coalition
In the chaotic dance of Indian politics, alliances form and dissolve with alarming frequency, leaving voters bewildered and leaders scrambling for relevance. The latest casualty in this political theatre is the India alliance, a ragtag assembly of opposition parties united by little more than their shared disdain for one man: Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Let’s […]
