This guy’s going to be get­ting a lot of calls for sure.
Meet Sam­son, an auto dri­ver from Chen­nai, who has his own web­site, and incred­i­bly (yes, yes!) also turns on the meter!
When I think Chen­nai and auto dri­ver, my mind wan­ders to a jour­ney we under­took a few years ago — my sis­ter and I. We […]

Of course we all know what hap­pens on Ban­ga­lore roads when it rains. But I was the least pre­pared for the events to unfold that night. After din­ner with friends at Indi­rana­gar I set off towards Kora­man­gala. It had been rain­ing for around an hour but I didn’t really real­ize how bad things were out­side.

So as luck would have it, I came down with a cold on Tues­day night.
And with the Sun­feast around the cor­ner, you can imag­ine how frus­trat­ing that is for me. Any­way, I thought I would ask for some home-made recipes to cure a com­mon cold and I got some very inter­est­ing responses when I posted […]

Hey! It’s me… whatcha upto? Can I get some attention here?

So an old friend called when I was brows­ing through books at Oxford today after my nth ankle ther­apy ses­sion at Manipal.

He’s com­ing to Ban­ga­lore and wants to meet me for din­ner. I might be trav­el­ling out I tell him. He can’t believe his luck! It’s about the 4th time he’s going to miss me.

So, I was just pack­ing up to leave yoga class, when my instruc­tor bran­dishes a sheet of paper in front of me.
“What is this?” I ask.
He just pushes it into my hand with­out answer­ing.
On the top, it reads, Kareena Kapoor’s diet.
I read it twice and then look at him with a ques­tion­ing expres­sion.
