The Day I Met GOD Himself – A.R. Rahman
A.R. RAHMAN – This name needs no introduction. Being a 90’s kid, I have grown up grooving to the tunes of Roja, Bombay, Rangeela, Dil Se, Taal and what not! This man had started carving his niche amidst the cacophony of raging music directors in the country, right from those times. His music has always been mellifluous – it’s just DIFFERENT, it’s MAGICAL. I remember observing him keenly on television, in any of his public gatherings or interviews. He was always a man of few words. He was extremely humble, down-to-earth and exuded oodles of simplicity from that heavenly persona of his. He still is, a man of few words.…

A Narrow Escape from Perverts Around Me – #MeToo
Born and brought up in a country like ours, sexual harassment in various forms is considered to be pretty usual in our daily lives. This marks the first impression about the sorry state of affairs in our nation. Sexual exploitation in any form, leaves an indelible mark on the soul of the concerned person – be it male/female. And a casual approach towards the frequency of such incidents, is alarming indeed. Somewhere, something is definitely going wrong! I clearly remember a vivid incident from my childhood, when I was hardly 11-12 years old. I was sent by my mother to the nearest grocery store to grab a packet of bread, when…

#TheBlindList ~ Wander Bird’s quest to explore the unknown!
Almost each one of us has always had a ‘Bucket List’ in life – be it a wish list for travel, food, life goals and what not! But, have you ever thought of a BLIND LIST – a list with unknown wishes? A list which blindly says ‘Yes’ to the world. A list which blindly trusts the world to reveal its incredible beauty wherever we go, unveiling amazing new experiences at every turn. Because of my knack for impulsive travel, I have had both good and bad experiences. The bad ones were just a blemish on the learning curve, while the good ones created memories of a lifetime. Such is…

Standing right under the NIAGARA FALLS – Maid Of The Mist!
The Niagara Falls is well-known as one of the largest waterfalls in the world. Until now, I had read about the Niagara Falls in my Geography books in school, and then maybe saw few videos on Niagara Falls in the National Geographic Channel. But boy! What an experience you have, when you actually stand right there and watch it live. The grandeur of the crystal clear waters and the gushing winds make this place a visual delight. It is a geological wonder indeed. Journey from New York to Buffalo City There’s an interesting story behind our travel from New York to Buffalo City. We were so focused on budget travel…
