Post 26/11 young Mumbaikars stood up outside the Taj with candles and posters, each one who mattered and is heard was on the panel of talk shows, media asked questions, all this was done because it was time people wanted to live fearlessly so they wanted some constructive change! Yes we did say that we need CHANGE but what we meant was for better! When people said that its time for heads to roll they meant that we deserve better leaders, those who could lead us, secure us, help us, work towards progress of the city and the state and answer us! And one week later when the anger is settling down we have an anti climax Chhagan Bhujbal replaces R R Patil and Ashok Chavan replaces Vilasrao Deshmukh. WOW so much in the name of change! A quick reminder, Chhagan Bhujbal started his political career with Shiv Sena, fell out of the party in 1991 and now is with NCP, Oops now is...

After 9/11 George W Bush promised his people that he would protect them and he did. Many would say that his men dug Saddam Hussain out of his grave and killed him again for vested interests, he finished countries altogether in search of Ladin but sent a message across to the whole world, loud and clear 'You cannot attack United States of America' since then fortunately America has not faced any terror attack. The President kept his word and Americans are living fearlessly. Our Prime Minister can neither save others nor his own people. Politicians like Shivraj Patil, R R Patil and Vilasrao Deshmukh have redefined the word promise. 'Promise' in their dictionary means: Say anything that comes to your mind to make people happy and then forget about it. The list of the cities attacked in India is endless-- Mumbai, Delhi, Jaipur, Malegaon, Bangalore, Ahemdabad and all of Kashmir. But the recent attack in Mumbai taught us the real meaning of the...

I have been covering entertainment for the past ten years now, have interviewed the Aamirs, Shah Rukhs and Bachchans of the Bollwyood world! But interviewing the likes of Sachin Tendulkar and Saurav Ganguly was not on my agenda.. ever! I was never interested in following sports as a journalist, now I have learnt that one should never say never! To be honest, I recognise the prominent players like Sachin, Sourav, Rahul, Harbhajan and Yuvraj. Yuvi because he has been linked with a couple of actresses. Apart from playing cricket Sachin, Rahul and Saurav do enough ads for everyone to recognise them. You open the papers and Sachin is selling you a soft drink, Rahul is asking you to shave and Dada is swinging his shirt on all the news channels. Bhajji tried to let his hair down but that didn't go down well with his fans in Punjab. Guys, I am trying to prove a point here please don't miss it.... I am...
