Thumbs Up
When you have the ability and sustenance to prevail but you refuse to take that one single step, it’s called circumstantial reluctance. When you have all the dimes and pennies in this world, you vent for the riches. When you have the dollars and pounds, you miss your dimes. That is so human. When youContinue reading “Thumbs Up”
Best of Me
‘Am I the best’ is a question I often ask myself. Brutally, the answer is yes. Confidence, yes. Arrogance, no. Well, a bit of it actually. ‘Best’ is usually the most used and most abusively used word around. Gives you this feeling of anonymity in the vicinity of giants twittering around the epicenter. Yes, IContinue reading “Best of Me”
Neighbourhood Dhaba
The news of ‘The Dhaba’ in Ballygunge Phari closing down came as a shocker to us. I really felt an era has come to an end. We used to live in Ballygunge Circular Road in the 90s and we visited the Dhaba quite regularly. It was our favourite neighbourhood Dhaba. As kids, I remember pouncingContinue reading “Neighbourhood Dhaba”
Fan – I ain’t one
My apprehension turns in to an insomniac, ballistic version when I talk about SRK films. But ‘Fan’ is a different experience altogether. It brings together a gamut of emotions that sway across as I watched the film – the newcomer, the emerging star, the human being, the superstar, King Khan. Well, yes. Life does comeContinue reading “Fan – I ain’t one”

the portugal moment
Not sure why, but Portugal victory is the fairy tale story of Euro 16. Minus Ronaldo, the team showed you can still be magic on field. Maiden Euro, getting better of France in 41 years is crazy. #till2020

Brilliant return of serves, exquisite passing shots and the consistent control. Murray on his way to his second but heart with Raonic. Still. #wimbledon2016

inbox today
My outlook inbox number was showing ‘1994’ today. I took a deep 10 second look at it and was quickly reminiscent of how life was, way back in 1994. These are few of what I remember – vaguely and hazily as I swept past nostalgia. As any teenager, I was equally inquisitive, confused and overtlyContinue reading “inbox today”

Football is a game of legs and toes. Legs are skill, skill is talent, talent is attitude. The fulfillment of putting the ball in to a rectangular netted box with the zeal to achieve, passion to excel and thrill to entertain is at a mercurial level for 11 fierce individuals. @msksmiles
Disparity of Roots
Once upon a time, in the long lost world of happiness, anguish and chaos, there lived 2 individuals who were raised and bred together. Yet, so gorgeously different. Angel was a shy, submissive, reluctant girl who had her choices defined by her parents. She was extremely adorable and loved by all around her. It wasContinue reading “Disparity of Roots”
