According to Smi: Turning over a new leaf - Part 1
http://smiworld.blogspot.com/2009/05/turning-over-new-leaf-part-1.html
About my experiences and growth from young womanhood to adulthood. Thursday, July 23, 2009. Turning over a new leaf - Part 1. DeathBirth. Rebirth. A New Beginning. They all happened. Right here. In my life. I have written of. In this blog. As much as that post was a celebration of the amazing person she was, it also spoke of a sense of void that has been left behind in my life with her passing. Little did I know then that the monster would return. Yet again. I had hardly lived with my mother in law to kn...

According to Smi: September 2009
http://smiworld.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
About my experiences and growth from young womanhood to adulthood. Sunday, September 6, 2009. Turning over a new leaf - Part 2. Two lines. And pink at that. How scary can they get? That's when you realise all of a sudden, that you are not alone, even in that restroom where you're standing staring at them. I mean, these home tests are great, aren't they? Come to any use? Who are we kidding? You think. You know you haven't been able to keep the lid on. In more ways than one. I think it was right after this...

Bollywood Baatein: Chasing Bollywood stars in Amsterdam
http://bollywoodbaatein.blogspot.com/2007/06/chasing-bollywood-stars-in-amsterdam.html
Friday, June 1, 2007. Chasing Bollywood stars in Amsterdam. Gauri Khan looks askance at me. She is dressed in white and clutches a shopping bag in either hand. As I move towards her on a busy street in Amsterdam, she takes a step back and frowns. I don't take the hint. As I start to mumble something, the wife of Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan hurries past me and disappears into an alley. No, I wasn't trying to assault her. I walk past alfresco cafes and Gothic churches, stopping only for a glass of ho...

Bollywood Baatein: Konkona getting a raw deal, eh?
http://bollywoodbaatein.blogspot.com/2007/05/konkona-getting-raw-deal-eh.html
Tuesday, May 29, 2007. Konkona getting a raw deal, eh? Poor Konkona Sen Sharma. Why are directors hell-bent on making her fall in love with a gay colleague? Sees Konkona walking in on a none-too-brotherly encounter. But she still gets off lightly. In a city where extra-marital affairs are passe and cool dude Sharman Joshi makes money by renting out his apartment for scheduled sexcapades. Which reminds me, is the similarity with. And I haven't even talked about the surprise package yet - Irrfan Khan is th...

Bollywood Baatein: Tracking Down: Miss Universe 2007
http://bollywoodbaatein.blogspot.com/2007/05/tracking-down-miss-universe-2007.html
Tuesday, May 29, 2007. Tracking Down: Miss Universe 2007. India's dream of winning another Miss Universe crown was dashed when the sassy Miss India Puja Gupta's name was not called out from the list of the final five gorgeous women. Though Puja looked ravishing than ever on the ramp (seemed like the training and make-up men had toiled very hard! But tonight is 20-year-old Miss Japan Riyo Mori's (she loves to dance and has been dancing since she was 4! You deserved to win! Riyo Mori's Photo Courtesy: http...

Bollywood Baatein: Delhi - easily starstruck?
http://bollywoodbaatein.blogspot.com/2007/07/delhi-easily-starsruck.html
Tuesday, July 17, 2007. Delhi - easily starstruck? It has been long alleged that Delhi, deprived of seeing Bollywood celebs, gets easily starstruck. I didn't believe it at all when I came to the city as I thought it must be a rumour! How can people living in the Indian capital be unruly but sadly my impression about Delhi has changed recently. I was a witness to a few things which I think I should have never seen. It got so unruly that I could hardly hear him sing. All that I could hear was absurd re...

Snippets from a media office: July 2007
http://onthejob.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Snippets from a media office. Tuesday, July 03, 2007. Of Tenants and Houses without Windows. They say a life sans books is like a room without windows. I could never have imagined the former but that the latter exists came quite as a shocker to me. It all started the day my current landlady said those three dreaded words to me - U MUST VACATE! Life has never been the same. My quest for a house turned into urgency, urgency into desperation and desperation into do-or-die thou must. Well, to imagine that a ...

Eternal Temptations: October 2010
http://saintinquest.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 08, 2010. Anjaani Anjaani ki kahani. Actors: Priyanka Chopra, Ranbir Kapoor. So, my first pre-release assessment of a movie hasn't been that accurate. From the promos on air, and considering the fresh casting in the movie, I'd deduced that Anjaana Anjaani. Would become another addition to the quintessential love stories in Hindi cinema, just like Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak. The story is straightforward and vividly portrayed. And Priyanka Chopra. Who has done a decent role. While the trailer m...
