The Great Indian Manhunt
Like all diligent Indian parents in the world, my parents are looking for a match for me these days. Since I am such a WoW, they hardly find me at home except on certain weekends. Weekends, that turn into a battleground with animated discussions on how to go about the great hunt for Mr Right. One such weekend, some forms were being filled in for a ... more...

Delhi Belly
I was in the capital last week, on work, and all I did the whole week was shuttle between the office and my hotel. Thanks to my project timelines, I couldn't manage to drag myself out to any of my favourite haunts in the city for a single decent meal. As I sat and sulked over a bowl of bland soup and tasteless cheese sandwiches, I tried battling of... more...
