- Siddaiah Road, Bangalore
  Horn Experts: Siddaiah Road, Bangalore.Old parts, new parts, spare parts and scrap, that is what you will find on Siddaiah Road in Bangalore; a one-stop place if you own a lorry, truck or tractor and need anything from leaf springs, radiators, horns to gears and transmissions. I had gone by this road some time earlier in the morning and had found all the sho […]

- A translucent bead of emerald !
  When the train dropped us in Haridwar, the last dawn of May wiped her half-shut eyes in deep surmise to greet us—stunned she was, perhaps, for all so humble punctuality of Doon Express. We too were. Before she could spread her wings to fly for the day, we were curled up under loads of sacks [...]

- Happy Diwali!
  October 17 this year is Diwali, the biggest celebration of the year in India. Diwali celebrates the triumph of Lord Rama – his defeat of the evil demon Ravana, capture of his wife Sita and return from exile — and, in general, the victory of light over dark. It’s also known as the festival of [...]

  We have taken Iravan to all of our favourite places except K-Gudi. One of the reason was in our last visit we found that still they have no electricity, so were always afraid how he’ll cope up with dark. And then we decided to take a chance. It was a casual visit to M.G.Road and [...]

  In Shekhawati, the future looks at the past… Update: or, the past and future look at each other, as Arun says in a comment. I have also changed the title of the post to ‘Future Tense’ as a nod to the deplorable state of many of the mansions / frescoes in Shekhawati. [...]

White Indian
- Moving On Up
  It's a commonly accepted belief that you should pray to God or the universe for what you want. However, I'm not a person who often prays to ask for things. The problem is that I never know what to ask for, and my mind loves to throw forth limiting beliefs about what could be possible. Then, there is the behaviour of the universe itself. Since I too […]

  The clouds opened up and it started to drizzle. The mp3 player played the latest Hindi songs. Amitesh and I having occupied the last seat of Innova, trickled into a catnap. Sharmil and Nimit in the middle and Hiren in front began their tittle-tattle to keep themselves busy.The slowness of the vehicle and the loud roar of the downpour outside broke my forty w […]

- The Seller of Pirated-Books
  The illegal but very open business of selling pirated books fascinates me. I think it is terrible that the entire publishing industry (authors, editors, publishers) is being subverted by the makers of pirated editions. But I seem to be in the minority here, because all these roadside sidewalk vendors are doing very good business. The authorities who should b […]

- The evil travel writer
  Do travel writers play a role in aiding the desecration of a destination by writing about it and praising it pristine beauty? By telling people just how to get there and where to stay and the highlights to enjoy, do we encourage the hordes to head there and speed along the destruction of all that [...]

  Vypin Island is criss crossed by canals. Though the area nearer to mainland is now waiting to see a boom in construction of multi storey buildings, the island and its beaches still have a serenity and beauty which is becoming rarer by the day.Standing in front of a noisy school on the bank of the backwaters, one could see a school of dolphins popping in and […]

We took a late morning flight from Izmir to Nevsehir (more on Selcuk, Ephesus and Kusadasi later..). From Nevsehir we took a shuttle to Goreme which was about 80km away. On the way we watched in amazement as the landscape changed from almost desert-flat to hill […]

  "The sea beach of Karwar is certainly a fit place in which to realise that beauty of nature is not a mirage of imagination, but reflects the joy of the infinite and thus draws us to lose ourselves into it.Where the universe is expressing itself in the magic of its laws it may not be strange if we miss its infinitude; but where the heart gets into immedi […]

- Haridwar and Rishikesh
  The night train takes you from Delhi to Haridwar in less than 5 hours. You could also drive down by road if the weather is pleasant. Haridwar is fast emerging a business destination as well with the incentives being offered by the Uttarkhand government to set up manufacturing facilities there. This is also evident [...]

- Hyderabad's Nehru Zoological Park aka Hyderabad Zoo
  Hyderabad is dry and it doesn't rain as much here as it does in many other cities of the country. As a result, the Hyderabadi terrain is largely composed of rocks. Huge boulders of stones strewn around everywhere with a few shrubs and fewer trees anywhere in sight. Its a lot like Ahmedabad in that respect, albeit, I have to say that the Government in Hy […]

Yercaud is a quaint little hill station in the district of Salem in Tamil Nadu.This is often referred to as the “Poor man’s OOTY”. I cannot quite see the logic for this. Yercaud is not as crowded as Ooty, and at the same time, it offers all that is expected […]

  Defeat is the distance between a bedtime story and a wake-up call. The former starts with ‘Once upon a time...’ and lulls the voter to sleep. The second is an energiser that addresses a fresh dawn. Three political parties have become victims of their own success: their narrative has run its course, and they have not been able to find a further chapter to the […]

- The facinating relationship between politicians and TV
  The relationship between television and politicians continues to fascinate me. Many politicians claim that TV is biased against them. Usually, those who complain are conservatives who feel that journalists are liberals and are therefore biased against them. In the US, Richard Nixon used to rail against the East Coast liberal establishment which, according to […]
