Recently, I had the privilege of attending the match between Pune Warriors and the Chennai Super Kings at the newly built Subrata Roy Stadium here in Pune. Thought about sharing my experiences here.

So where were you when India won the world cup? This is one of those defining moments in history that all of us — who were present and witnessed it — will probably remember for the rest of our lives (unless India makes a habit of winning world cups) Looking back at the last couple [...]

I was invited today to give a talk at SITM (which stands for Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management). The college is situated at the Symbiosis International University campus at Lavale, Pune which is a very picturesque location (set on the top of a hill) on the way to Lavasa.

Dec. 18th | Posted by 0 comments
As every great day begins, mine too started with a visit to the neighbourhood market to buy the freshest vegetables at 7:30 in the morning with my uncle (mama). 7:30 was pretty late by Kolkata standards as people come by around 5:30ish to get a shot at the choicest and freshest vegetables.

May. 18th | Posted by 16 comments
This is to inform all you people who doubted me – I finally finished Atlas Shrugged! Woohoo !!! Okay, I shamelessly took 2 years and 2 attempts (the first time I gave up mid way at the John Galt speech) to finish it, but I finally did it last week and just wanted to pat [...]

Goodbye college …

Today, unfortunately (for some) or fortunately (for most), was our Engineering College Farewell to all the final year students … Something to explicitly tell us – that its now officially over – end of student life for the most of us … Most of us who have been placed, have to join by the first [...]
