This blog is our space to write about our thoughts, views and notes about our travels. Osho owned 90 Rolls Royces while being a Sanyasi …. The so-felt contradiction is very fascinating and hence the name !
Yesterday Indian goons brought down a statue of Lenin in the Indian state of Tripura. I am deeply pained and I want to record the tremendous contributions of Lenin in this blog for those goons who thought that he was a foreigner. Lenin was born into a wealthy middle class family in Shantipur about 100 … Read more
My father was posted in Shillong between 1980 to 1983 and I went to the Kendriya Vidyalaya Happy Valley school there. Shillong was beautiful and untouched… there were almost no scooters or bikes there and we went walking everywhere. We managed to get many western clothes there as we would go to Bara Bazaar and … Read more
I waited till the Delhi Patiala House court judge pronounced his order on Karti Chidambaram.. I don’t usually pray but I was praying that the slimy Abhishek Manu Singhvi didn’t manage to set him free. Karti Chidambaram and his father P. Chidambaram are the icons of CONgress power and they use that power liberally to … Read more
Today while browsing FB, I saw this post from my friend Neeti. Its a letter from Malvika Lamba, an army wife and it brings out the stark difference between the world of a soldier and that of a politician. It reminded me of something that happened earlier. A couple of weeks back, an important minister … Read more
Happy National Voters’ Day. Today, I was remembering the man who reminded the entire nation that we have a Election Commission of India with a Chief Election Commissioner …. Mr. T. N. Seshan.

Also in India and the world at large, its always better to wait for a few days to go by after an incident/event/uprising happens and you form an opinion. Nothing is … Read more

In the past two days, other wannabe and almost-there stars of corruption got a clean chit in their respective cases so today was worrying. It was much like getting the … Read more
I almost fell out of my chair….. as am sure many of you would have after reading this blog’s title. But stay in your seats – this is my “khayali pulao”. Will there ever be a day when the Pidi-handle of CONgress takes responsibility for ANY failure?? Now here is my “khayali raita” – AAP … Read more
It was heart breaking to see Rajdeep having to show PM Modi waving to the city country with a “V” for victory. Sharing Rajdeep’s pain is Javed Ansari whose heart has slipped to his knees and his strident voice has been reduced to a croak. I am praying for their good health… because I want … Read more
In Himachal Pradesh CONgress lost because there is anti-incumbency after just 5 years of rule … but in Gujarat BJP’s model for the past 22 years has failed. How sweet. Again, that permanently-in-pain Sanjay Jha is talking of BJP’s hubris … and the Gandhi dynasty has been the paragon of humility ?? Maybe he should … Read more
