Open New Doors

I just read Seth Godin’s blog post, Jumping the line vs. opening the door. 

The final cut of the blog post is about opening new opportunities, new doors. How often have you opened up doors or cut across the old system with a new path. We usually don’t think beyond what’s given to us. We act civilized, waiting at the same door, without thinking of the other possibilities.

Different beat of life
Why is it hard to think of a new path, new hope, new way, each day of your life. Often times, I seek new path, but most often I take the usual beaten path. It’s the conformist attitude that makes we merry go round with life in the same set of eyes.

I hope you can try your bit to find a new door today!

In # 4, this line assures you a berth in a women for a brief moment… Well you need the right voice over, with right attitude to fire this short range missile. If you hit the target at the way it’s meant to be, then you can expect a smile breaking in front of you…
This punch line helps you get entry, it also creates topic to delve your conversation. With this opener, you can talk on anything from food to wine or from a current event to the venue. Always, remember to keep it light, forget those heavyweight topics …..

Why this topic in my blog: Well I found it interesting after I had a casual encounter with a lady at Tavern, Pub, Bangalore. Thought I started well, I lost steam midway….

To Sir With Love


It was from such an unexpected quarter that I receive the helpful advice which changed the whole course of my life….” To sir with Love” E.R. Bhaithwaite:

How often have you received unrequited attention, caring or love? Sometimes an unexpected strangers speaks few kind words to you or smiles on the road or touch you with love!

Big city life can become lonely despite your big fat pay check or your gleaming presence. In an apartment life, grief can touch you ‘all alone.

These days, I feel such pangs of pain thinking of little events around my life. I felt the need to speak out to someone, but all I hear is the damned horns in this big city Bangalore.. 😦 

Genesis Again

My blogging is like a kite floating in sky. Sometimes an upward surge of wind will keep it going high, or then, it will drive down to earth.

Today I again got that blast of southern wind. Now I’m back sharing old tales and my aging thoughts. Today the surge to write comes from an idea to share lines from novels and it’s ripples in me. Today as I was reading ” God of small things” in the loo, I thought its rich narrative exploded something in my head.

Why not share few here to make a sequel out of it. I hope this idea will give something more to blog about.

Bryan Adams in Bangalore

18 till I do, fella is back for the fourth time in Bangalore. For me it’s the first time, I’m attending his show. I got free tickets, with that I happily went to the venue. The whole area was filled with cars, dust, and short skirts. Seeing the lasses in short colorful skirts rocked my spirits further.

I went inside the venue thinking of the Kingfisher beer or Royal Challenge. But all hopes evaporated as soon I entered the venue. So fuc*** counters for booze. What a pity to be in a rock show with out any elevated spirits.

Bryan Adams in Bangalore
There was no opening band. That was a dampener.

As the show kicked up, the young crowd swayed to his old beats. All I could see was a  silhouette from a distance  and up close from the big screens. As my friend remarked, he has aged beyond his years and he looked liked an old 50’s guy. 

New Spanking Me!

One day at a time…
It’s 2011, the big year started with fewer pennies. It’s getting tougher by the day to survive, let alone save. How do I take it from here to where I love to see. We are all in the same race to make more money, more wealth and become happy at the end of the day.

Miracles don’t happen. But ideas can turn your life into a miracle. It’s this quest that’s burning in me to turn the high flame to opportunity.

If you’ve any thought on how I can turn my life around, or just give me a call. I’m all ears..

Russians in Goa!

Russians in Goa  ( Source: indrailsearch blog)

Goa which once caught the attention of the hypee is now a popular destination of tourists from all parts of the globe. According to The Hindu, the number of Russian tourist in Goa has outnumbered all other nationalities. . 

Friendly Goa and Unfriendly TouristBack in 2002, Goa tourism started promoting Goa as a beach destination to Russia. Now, there are more Russians than other nationalities in Goa. 
Last time when I visited Goa, I was surprised to see hotel banners in Russian language. Most of the hotels were packed with Russian vacationers. I talked to one hotel owner about the impact of Russian tourist.
The hotel owner in Calungute had nothing good to say about Russian tourist. These big fellows and slender women are creating other social issues in Goa. Many of them are into drugs, and many Russian women land India for quick money from sex.

Tourism at what cost?
As a spin-off  of Russian tourists is visible in other sectors in India.  From Bollywood dance to regular events, you can see Russian models in many roles. It’s also a sad reminder of how a powerful Indian ally during the cold world era has succumbed to it’s own economic ploy. Now, we see Russian or Ukrainian dancers in Bollywood movies, swaying to the tune of Indian masala .

So, What Holds for Goan?

It’s difficult to say how things will turn in future. I think the policy makers, people of Goa must take the right step to keep Goa a safe destination in the years to come.

Old Bangalore – Down the Memory Lane

                                     ( Marble Memorial plaque inside St Patrick’s Church, Bangalore)

I found few interesting sites from old timers. There is a small tribe of people who still cherish the old life in Bangalore. I would like to meet them personally, hear their tales, and know how the life was in ’40 or ’50’s.

Somehow I adore seeing the old black and white pictures. There’s something in those pictures which makes me lost, or connected with those yesteryear life. Probably, it’s the fresh, innocent or naive way of life, which is portrayed in those old pics. On the same lines, I love collecting vintage stuffs, from books to items of the pasts.
Who talks of Old Bangalore
One Mr Ronnie Johnson has given wealth of details through pictures and detailed content on the life in old Bangalore. As he rightly the heydays of Bangalore as – those were the days
Mr Ronnie also writes content for websites or for online publications.

Pls contact him: Ronnie Johnson, 5/3 King’s Street, Richmond Town, Bangalore 560 025, India. Residence Phone in Bangalore: 080 2240145.

( update on 10/15 – Some time back I came to know from an Anglo Indian person that Ronnie Johnson has passed away). Now, I’m not sure who is there to track those vintage diaries. I feel sorry for not meeting Mr Ronnie in person. 

Corner House Bangalore

Today for a change, I went to Corner House, next to ESI hospital, Bangalore. I’ve passed by this buzzing ice cream joint, but never bothered to stop. Today, we dropped in for death by chocolate.

Even at 10:00 PM, this place was crowded with people, of all ages, licking and slurping from the white plastic bowl.

Now my question?
How do this brand attract so ice cream lovers?
Why are customers visiting this place? What’s special here?
How different is it from other popular brands like Baskin and Robbins?
What homework should you do to start another brand like this?
What could be the sales in a day?

Is it the brand name that attracts so many ice cream aficionados to this Corner house. On the same lines, do you attract people? Why is the secret to your popularity?
