With the recent adventurous trip by my Hyd friends living upto the meaning of the excellent song Tu Bin batayaaen from RDB, I got more excited both by the song and the thought of doing something similar in near future. Least did I expect that to happen in very near future! For some random reason, which am not aware of and don't bother to know, one of my senior, Miss D, called me up y'day and

What a movie to watch on your birthday! Absolute treat!Its a movie made with lots of emotions and it managed to make my eyes secrete some juice during the second half! All said, the usual post-mortem with one of my friends helped us conclude that the message conveyed by the movie was not liked by us. Nevertheless, I loved some of the dialogues in the movie.

Yesterday, while at bed in the afternoon, I suddenly remembered an amusing saying which was popular in my secondary school. Gwalior suiting and Bombay dyeing. People tend to think that its a war between the cities as suiting homophones with shooting and dyeing with dying. Thinking about that for a while helped me remember one more company which could complete the series. Gwalior suiting, bombay

At times you feel that you don't have anyone talk to. At times, you have someone with whom you can share everything, but you don't know how to express what you want to say.

This trip of mine to Chennai has been full of surprises. None of them planned for or anticipated. To begin with, I tried booking the tickets for the weekend embracing the pongal festival a month back from today. Maybe you know, that was definitely too late. I ditched the plan of going to Chennai for pongal right then. Then came the surprise news from my friend, Mr. S, that he has two tickets for

It all seemed to be the usual night time in Bangalore as I was walking to the much liked hotel Krishna Kafe near my house. It was as cold as usual. People all over the roads, some returning home from work, some others returning back from dinner with their 'significant other' and some others like me going to have the dinner who were getting vicarious pleasure seeing the couples (Oh!

Whenever I listen to 'Sundari, Kannal Oru Saeithi' song from Thalabathi, I don't remember an instance when I didn't stop to wonder why Mani Ratnam chose to drop him in his next project (am not sure if Anjali got released between Roja and Thalabathi, but nevertheless). Man, Raja is the king. There was a time when I used to compare him with my genie, Rahman. It seems like I have grown out of that

I still remember that day. My parents shifted to Madurai and it was my first day in the new school. I was studying 3rd standard then. Coming directly from a school at Kalpakkam, which had a very calm atmosphere, I was overwhelmed with shock seeing the new noisy, kind of uncivilized environment in this school. My young heart didn't know how to react or how to adapt to the new world it was put into

It seems like its never "yet another Diwali" for me. Each Diwali has its own colors and whenever I project myself in the thought screen, I see a different image of myself. Today, being Diwali, I feel it to be the craziest of the festivals. If given the power and capability, I will be glad to remove this from the festival list. Sometimes you wonder if you can fit a silencer to these crackers. A

After one full year in industry, the first thing that comes in mind is celebration. People generally celebrate any achievement, attainment of a land mark. Being and learning for one full year in a company warrants a celebration. A year definitely gives sufficient data points to analyze one’s actions.

It was a beautiful Monday morning on 7th March 2022. Surabhi was born on that day 10 years before. She was woken up as early as at 5 am in the morning by a phone call from her grandmother wishing her the best birthday ever. From then on, the phone never seemed to stop ringing.

Last Sunday, Mr. B and myself decided to go to Kodi Hali in Bangalore. We started from the house knowing just one heuristic that going along mysore road will lead to Kodi Hali. We didn't worry about reaching the destination. We wanted to enjoy the travel. After traveling about 10 km on the mysore road, we decided to return back. On the way, we thought we would go to Laal Baagh and spend the rest

If u start analyzing your relationship with all the people u know, some interesting thoughts come. The relationships that are very close, according to me, had, at some point in time, an exponential growth. Sometimes, the growth was observed in the early stages of the relationship and for other cases, it was observed in the middle of the relationship. This growth saturates after sometime and

The day the farmers celebrate Nature for all the blessings it had showered on them, began just as a normal day for me, YaSE. I was woken up with the beautiful song from 'New', reminding of my mother every time I hear to them. My mom, on the other end of the line, wished me Pongal wishes. It is always nice to be woken up with mother's voice. I got ready to go to office. Before that, I wanted to

I preponed my trip to Chennai as my cousin sister wanted to see me before leaving for Delhi. It costed me more and the bus was not comfortable at all. I didn't have much feelings for seeing her, however, she had. Reaching Chennai, I decided not to waste more money on autos and waited for town buses. Fortunately, I reached home spending just Rs 6.50. I had a broad smile while walking the way to

However hazy it looks, however dull it looks, however unfortunate it looks, We want to see in to the future. We almost always want to see it. Why? Why are humans so curious?

My girl and myself were talking while walking in the beach. We both were drowned in immense thought. The last sentence that my girl spoke was very strong and shook me like lightening. Suddenly it seemed like I had forgotten that sentence. I was concentrating to remember that line. At that time someone from back, started yelling at me. I was so lost in my thoughts that I could not turn back. The

The word itself brings a smile in my face. :-), for, I love them. The thing I love about children is their innocence and originality. Oh! My God. I get excited even by the thought of writing about them. I heard from my dev manager that a new-born baby cannot see beyond 9 inches. It would be learning to see in that stage and eventually grow up to learn from seeing. Another interesting thing is

This thought suddenly struck me like lightening. I couldn't get myself fully involved in it to get a comprehensive interpretation of the thought. We would have noted that a two-wheeler is extremely difficult to balance when it is not moving. It is comparatively easier when on motion. And again, it becomes difficult when the speed is very high. Can we make an analogy to our life. How does it get

Once I read a mail that contained a set of letters supposedly written by children to God. One of the letters got me off-guard. "God, Who drew the boundaries around the countries?". Do u know the answer? I don't. It is high time we realized that the boundaries around us/our country are all not real. Suppose this world didn't have a kind of species having the sixth sense (I associate "awareness

I understood 'passion' as a word associated with a task, doing which you don't care about time, money or for that matter, any other resource. Based on this understanding, listening to music, programming (unable to hide my panduness ;) ) and recently, reading books are the things to which I am passionate about. Right or wrong, Generally, am not able to see a person and his work differently. To

Once I asked my friend this question. "What have you learnt from this life?" Her answer was very simple. "I have learnt to be happy always". To people who still feel skeptical about that, she later explained me her secret. As expected, that too was simple. "Live reflecting the good things that have happened to you" is that all what she had to say. Is that simple as it sounds to be? Forget the

This is Prasanna Srinivasan V, Technical Analyst in Trilogy. Blog writing seems to be a contagious activity. I was inspired by my friends viz. Anto, Ramsy & Parthi to attach English symbols to my thoughts. I would not think twice before telling 'my family (esp my brother) and my friends' to a person asking about my assets in this life. This is not an exaggeration. Right from my school days, I had
