I wonder…

In: Personal

थोदा सा गरज़ है, थोदि सि समज है
चाहतों के दायेरे में, रुखना फ़रज़ है

आरज़ूं भि अरज़ है, के बदथे जाना
इनके लिये अब तक चले, हज़रो में हम भि मिले.

Merry Christmas

Christmas has given me some of my best gifts. This year is no exception. My sister gave me these shoes which I just love. I’ve always been a shoe freak but never got to indulge in it. This will surely get the ball rolling. Thank a ton, sis!
Merry Christmas, everyone.

My beloved Mumbai

Journey so far

Rewind six years when I just started blogging. It was fun, it was cool, and it was everything but a serious affair. I first read about blogging [...]

R.I.P. George Carlin

In: Personal

I’ve been following George Carlin’s work only for the last couple of years. And very rarely have I seen anyone impress me so much in such a short span. In fact, he has been the reason for my newfound interest in stand-up comedy in general. Listened to so many people hence and didn’t find anyone [...]

About Author & Journal

Two things that define me: Dilettante & Self-taught. I've dabbled in more number of things than I can probably handle: technology, software, consulting, photography, filmmaking, travel, writing, philosophy and ton of other things too trivial to name. This journal is a personal repository of my opinions, reviews and musings on all things I care about. Or don't.

I also author and maintain Hindsightview.com
