“You’ve never been to Food Street?”
I could hear dis­be­lief in Badri’s voice when I replied in the neg­a­tive. 
It’s true. I’ve never been there. Never had the chance. And besides, no one’s ever sug­gested meet­ing at Food Street before. 

So on Sun­day evening, a few of us got together and decided on a ren­dezvous at this place.

Every­one needs a hero, right? So here’s a small story about mine. So, the hero’s been around for a while, but never really got­ten a taste of adven­ture. Of what life can be like : on the road. I’ve been mean­ing to take him out on a jaunt to expe­ri­ence real life… but the timing […]

Ron­gali Bihu is a fun time for us Assamese peo­ple. Luck­ily for me, I landed in the thick of action. The sec­ond day itself I was whisked off for a Bihu gath­er­ing by my dad. Appar­ently it’s a tra­di­tion for his group of friends (going way back to 1957!) to meet dur­ing Bihu and spend […]

For those of you who want to have a look at the pics on dis­play dur­ing the exhi­bi­tion, you can visit this link:

The prob­lem with hav­ing a sis­ter who’s a chef is that her stan­dards are nat­u­rally high. And since she knows what these exotic dishes are sup­posed to taste like, she won’t set­tle for less.

I am less dis­crim­i­nat­ing. I eat any­thing that looks and tastes rea­son­ably good and pro­nounce it as deli­cious! And some­times I haven’t tasted […]

This is a not for profit the­atre group called Krea, com­ing all the way from the US to stay a play in Ban­ga­lore, Chen­nai and Mum­bai. I’ve writ­ten more about them here so do go have a look! 

It’s amaz­ing what can take over the col­lec­tive con­scious­ness of a minor­ity of the pop­u­la­tion and get a seem­ingly triv­ial non-issue hyped all over the media!
A kiss, a saree and now Bud­dha in the bath­room?
Like some­one said, it’s okay to relieve your­self in pub­lic places (that’s obvi­ously a part of our great cul­ture) but […]

I’m sure most of you would have stopped at Kamat’s Lokaruchi on the Ban­ga­lore Mysore high­way near Ramana­garam at some point or the other. 

It’s a pop­u­lar stop for trav­el­ers and espe­cially at lunch time, when they serve tra­di­tional South Indian meals in plan­tain leafs. I was of course super excited since I don’t get to eat […]
