I've returned to the blogging desk.

After a long break of 12 years, I'm back to blogging! So much has happened in my life during this time. I got married and became a father, which has been an amazing and transformative experience. But there have also been some sad moments, like losing my own father.  These life events have changed me and given me a new perspective. I'm not the same person I was 12 years ago, and my writing will reflect that. I hope you'll come along with me on this fresh journey as I explore the world through my new lens. My keyboard is ready, and I can't wait to share this exciting chapter with you.

Can Love Happen Twice? by Ravinder Singh

My rating: 2 of 5 stars To be frank, I am really disappointed with this book. The enthusiasm that was building inside me to read the book as soon as it came out has evaporated. Everything (Honesty, emotion, realism, punches, LOVE) that was present in the first book is completely missing this time. View all my reviews

Kasab (Son-in-law CUM Son-of-LAW of India)

There are a few things which I am really ashamed of our country, the Judiciary being one of them. There are endless examples to support my statement latest being the SC giving a stay order on the hanging of ******* terrorist Kasab. This is so so pathetic from the highest authority meant for serving justice to all. I know that I am not a legal expert, knowing the small details of how things run in courts. Still, as a common man, I find the reason (being brainwashed & working as a robot on orders) behind the stay order as a lame excuse. Come on, how can we keep on dragging things for a man who killed 166 innocent indians (Mumbai terror attack on 26/11), staged war against our country. It's been 3 years, and he is enjoying the loopholes in our system with changing statements and playing with possibilities. When I look up to other countries, few are so much efficient in handling crime & criminals, which leaves a BIG question in my mind as to why we are this much bad in protec...

The Anna Effect

The protest across the nation is at its peak since Anna Hazare has started camping at Ramlila Ground, New Delhi. I am wholeheartedly supporting the cause because I feel that if it has to start from somewhere, why not here? I do agree that CHANGE is not a matter of a magic click, but initiation is what is actually required, and this is the right time. We all have been part of corruption, either on this side of the table or that side of the table. So let us all awaken and let's contribute, a GOOD TIME is lying ahead for us or for the next generation. I participated in the procession from India Gate to Ramlila Ground yesterday, and believe me, guys, the atmosphere was euphoric. Being a part of it was amazing, everywhere it was a positive & patriotic vibe. The fight against a corrupt system is not going to end by being a part of a single rally. It's a long way ahead, and I am ready to take the path. JAI HIND Few Observations: 1. Nobody was busy checking out girls, which is usu...

Happy Independence Day

15th August is the day every year when India, the country with 1.2 billion people, celebrates its Independence Day. Along with all these, Google also does a little Doodle for us. This year, it's a "Google" text written on the Red Fort located in New Delhi. Today, our country became Independent. Many Twitter and Facebook users will change their Profile Pictures entirely to the Indian Flag or by adding a ribbon to their pics. This is the day dedicated to our Freedom Fighters and to the Army, Navy, and Air Force who have always kept us secure and have lived and died for us. We cannot repay them, it's not a favor, it's something that can't be done by everyone; only heroes can do it, and those at the borders are the real heroes. A Salute to all the Soldiers, Freedom Fighters, and everyone who has saved our lives directly or indirectly. We owe them Happiness, Support, Love, and our Lives.   Well, I wish everyone reading this entry and everyone you know A Happy Ind...

UP goes the worries DOWN goes the rating

It was certainly news when SnP downgraded the Rating of the US from AAA to AA+. Something symbolic like the USA losing its A. What is to be observed next is to see the effect of it on the other economies, especially the growing economies. India, among them, is already showing its reaction (-vely) since Friday. Sensex has plunged for 2 consecutive days. There is a selling pressure from the Institutional Investors or the FIIs, which is creating panic. But it's better to hold on to the cliff and let the wind of uncertainty pass. In simpler terms, I am going to HOLD ON to my portfolio and will not give in to the selling pressure. I would advise others to do the same. What I feel personally is that these are just the bubble effect, which is going to subsidize very soon. The Indian economy is strong enough and self-reliant to absorb the shock that is happening around the globe at the moment.
