Nothing is personal or private!
How can a TV channel obtain the bank statement of a deceased customer?How can a bank release the statement? How can the channel air and discuss its contents openly? That is how lax India’s privacy laws are. That is the disdain with which we treat personal and private matters – of others. The channel’s anchors…
Bollywood pushing me out!
I dont know anybody in Bwood, leave alone SSR or his family or his girlfriends (I wish) or their families. I feel the whole of Bwood, the movie mafia, insiders and outsiders all together, have conspired to keep me out of Bwood though I was never interested to get into it in the first place.…

The Specter of Caste in Silicon Valley

Bollywood going nuts!

Lockdowns inspiring creativity!
Really, one good thing this lockdown thing has done. It has brought out people’s most creative, imaginative and humorous side to the fore! I just loved this! 🙂
Film critics running scared!
Film critics are now scared of giving low ratings / stars and even slightly negative reviews. All newcomers’ movies will be rated very highly by all them in future. So be careful which movie you go to see in theaters. All established star movies especially the Khan movies will be reviewed negatively. That doesn’t mean…
