Imagine you’re working in your office cubicle. There is a looming deadline at hand and whenever you are trying to concentrate, someone laughs hysterically loud from a distant corner. You mutter some abuses under your breath and try to concentrate harder. You try to mentally block the unnecessary noises along with stuffing your fingers intoContinue reading “So I recently read: Deep Work by Cal Newport”
Landing at Mars soon
NASA mailed me this a week ago: On Monday, Nov. 26, 2018, just before noon PT (3 p.m. ET; 2000 UTC/GMT), NASA’s InSight mission will land on Mars! The spacecraft will plunge through the thin Martian atmosphere, heatshield first, and use a parachute to slow down. Then, it will fire its retro rockets to slowlyContinue reading “Landing at Mars soon”
Auto!!
On one fine Saturday morning, I was waiting at BTM Bus Stop. With only 30 minutes for the movie to start, I was in a rush to reach PVR at Forum Mall in Koramangala, which was just 2 KM from there. If I had taken a bus, it would surely have taken me more thanContinue reading “Auto!!”

But it extended for 15 months thanks to the economicContinue reading “So I completed 10 Years working”
So I recently watched TVF’s ‘Yeh Meri Family’ and I regret it immensely
Because it is so good that I shouldn’t have watched it alone away from my family. Sigh. TVF has already created multiple shows which have made a huge impact in the Indian Web Series Scene, I don’t need to mention that anyway. “Yeh Meri Family’s” trailer appeared nice but it also was aiming to theContinue reading “So I recently watched TVF’s ‘Yeh Meri Family’ and I regret it immensely”
So I recently watched: Mukkabaaz and Hidden Figures
If someone asks, although no one would ask, that why am I writing reviews of these 2 movies together, then the answer would be: I am doing so because: I watched them back to back. Both tell exactly the same story of underdogs defeating the system and excelling. Although, both movies are kind of filmy.Continue reading “So I recently watched: Mukkabaaz and Hidden Figures”
