It appeared gross, grotesque and as Bongs would put ‘churanto nyaka’. However, ironically this is the same movie that ignited passion and romance in me 28 years back when I … Continue reading How Bollywood Ruined Us

A man who was so inspiring and motivating hanged himself is painfully unbelievable. He was my definition of an ideal ‘man’ because ‘He wrote, he traveled, he ate, he drank and he was hungry for … Continue reading Anthony Bourdain, Keep Traveling
