Tuesday, July 17, 2007. Kya aap shauch karte haiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin? To be sung in the Close-up ad syle). He walked into my life exactly two weeks back. And since then, life has just not been the same. Three days a week, I get up at 5 am just so I can meet him at 6. He's my yoga teacher. And his idea of greeting us each morning is by asking us if we have done. Translated it means- have you shat? Understandably no one raises his or her hands on being asked who all haven't shat. He doesn't buy that. ". No, I ...

Thursday, January 04, 2007. Tears come naturally to me. I have cried in school, in college and yes, in office too. Despite her efforts and later my parents' over the phone (Uncle had returned from office with his cell), I cried for the next seven hours. In the morning, my eyes would hardly open, the left one having swollen to a potato's size. Dad, who was also in Delhi then, but at a different place, arrived around 10 and hugged me and told me not to worry. I knew I was about to disintegrate. But somethi...

Tuesday, June 27, 2006. 8 by 52 or is it? Of late, I have had a feeling that my blog name may well end up being redundant. I don't feel I belong to this world. 8 * 52 seems to restrict me to a strangely incestuous world of mediocre people where everybody knows everybody, is married to somebody but is seeing somebody else and where anybody who is half-way decent is a nobody. I think I have seen enough in my three years as a journalist and I feel an urgent need to move on, before life passes me by. So, it'...

Friday, April 21, 2006. Yesterday, once more. Posted by 8 by 52 at 10:09 AM. Monday, April 17, 2006. But how can you? Is it too big a deal if I quit my job without having got another? That had the employees scared for a while till the next blooper of Jackie Chan, the great 'marital' expert came to town. Is it a wonder then that I want to quit this profession, job or no job? But every single person I talk to asks me, "But how can you think of doing that without another job in hand? Monday, April 10, 2006.

Thursday, May 11, 2006. Aaiye sunte hain mausam ka haal. It's as old as the dinosaurs. The latter may have been wiped away from the face of the earth ages ago, but the Met office continues to function out of its prehistoric setting next to the defunct airport. Essentially, the office makes do with three forecasts for the entire year. It can either be a. Partly cloudy sky with chances of duststorms/thunderstorms and squalls in some areas or. The day they forecast rain, you can be sure as hell, it won't.

Thursday, August 10, 2006. Dhoni aur meri kahani (! Mahender Singh Dhoni and I were batchmates at school. I discovered that he too passed out of DAV-JVM in 1999 after reading an interview of his. But then there were 5,000 students in that school and I was there for only two years so I never saw him (after all he had neither long nor coloured hair at that point of time). He was also with us in that class." He was? Par woh bhi nahi. The teachers, not because of them. The school's philosophy was simple....

Wednesday, October 05, 2005. Panditji Bataye Na Byah Kab Hoye? On returning to office, I happened top go through the latest issue of. A story on Bhojpuri in the magazine made me feel as if Bollywood will soon be rechristened Bhojpuriwood. Aby's baby is acting in one. So is Hema Malini. Dileep Kumar is producing one. AB himself will do a guest appearance in another. Remember how Sujit Kuamr, that flop Hindi film actor found his calling in Bhojpuri cinema? Posted by 8 by 52 at 9:13 AM. The second time, I w...

Thursday, September 14, 2006. Essar absolutely insists that I respond to her tag so without much ado, let me start. I am thinking about. Am also wondering about a piece on mass hysteria that I read in HT the other day. It started off by talking about the Mahim. I don't know, but I wonder. Am also thinking about some of the wonderful serials starting on TV. The other day, I saw thsi hoarding at Nehru Place which declared '. Ladke vansh chalane ke liye hote hain aur ladkiyan seelai machine' ,. Whenever I f...
