The Real Fiction

All that we experience, our perceptions – sights & insights – seem like a surreal mix of fact and fantasy. There are no lines dividing anything anywhere & existence rides upon interpretations. This blog will surf, fly, jog, dive, swim, jump & at times even hobble through planes of experiences that will include poetry, protests, design, tales, photo-tales and whatever else is discovered & needs to be shared.

It always happens when the mind wants it to happen!

There was a distinctive tinkle and I knew that my phone was ringing. I took the phone out of my pocket and paused for a while before allowing my index finger to swipe and let the caller in. Strange that I actually paused… it was probably a signal to warn me from taking that call…...

S-Fun is… funADs on the move!

She explained to me what wild nights really mean… one sultry afternoon in Connaught Place. I had a short and a rather revealing conversation with a teenage friend of mine as I sat munching my favourite Tuna Sub in CP. ‘Why do you guys say all the time that you’re having fun,’ I asked, ‘...
I’m bikers not a gengster!

I’m bikers not a gengster!

I scoured the net to try and see if my search could give me a precise definition of a biker. I found not one but many tweets that hand-held me and lead me right to the centre of a biker’s mind and life. In fact, it is the text of one of these tweets that...

Moonlight Mile

It had always been me and my bike and then one day it suddenly became my wife, our bike and I! I called her Specky… ah! No, not the bike, I mean my wife. The bike had no name but we loved it anyway. Specky gave bike riding a totally new meaning because she sat...

My most beautiful thing

My most beautiful thing

I let the words ‘my most beautiful thing’ be there within me for the night and even as I slept, the subconscious worked in its own strange way and kept on searching answers for me. The first thing that happened in the morning was a short silent discussion with my brain… ‘Well,’ I asked a...

Sun-glasses and the eternal seeker within me

‘Why do I want to buy shades?’ – is the question I was once very prone to ask myself. But this was before my encounter with the sunglasses salesman in a large store in a large mall in Delhi. My wife and I were at the shades counter there and I was looking wistfully at...
The flowchart of excitement

The flowchart of excitement

Don’t worry, I am not going to quote any psychologist here in this article telling you that excessive shopping is a result of stress or anger or some sort of a mismanaged life. I also don’t intend to go on and on and on about some remote but existing statistics on a comparison between online...

‘Note this! Note now!’ said Calvin to Hobbes

Calvin is live and kicking within all of us. He isn’t just a seemingly prickly comic-book character fantasizing and creating stories of aliens or wilfully experimenting with smart and rather tricky ideas to keep himself entertained… he is also a loving soul who forever needs to keep talking and debating with Hobbes, his stuffed tiger....

Ravana lost as he never had a Samsung Tab

No, King Dasharatha wasn’t really tech-savvy but he wanted his sons to be well-versed with the tech-arts of the day. He had made sure that they learn all the relevant martial arts, imbibe the pathways prescribed in the religious texts, and be strong in body and mind. He himself was a rather like a proactive...

Yes, it is possible to fall in love with a gadget!

He asked her, “How do I know if I’m in love with you or not?” and without pausing to think, she replied, “If you have to ask me then you’re not.” No, these aren’t lines about to take you on a roller-coaster ride of some romance paperback. These are lines that I asked myself as...
