The Purest Form of Art

Since writing on the walls is done neither for critical acclaim, nor financial rewards…it remains the purest form of art

Physical and Digital Books

While I wander in the streets of NY…hunting for a building less than 5 storeys high…here is a fantastic quote i read this morning…

“People loved their horses, too. But you don’t keep riding your horse to work just because you love it.”
–Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos on the difference between physical books and digital ones

Take care…will see you soon..

PS: Am approaching 1000 snaps on this trip…and am awesomely excited to see all of them..!

Update and appeal

Actually…let me begin with the appeal(s)…

1. I appeal to all the thousands of visitors to my blog…averaging 23 in number per day…out of which 19 spend 0.00 minutes on the blog…plz forgive me for not being regular with the blog…!
PS: The facts above are real…but am surprised…how can anyone measure the time as 0.00…?? i mean..am sure it takes atleast a second for people to realize that they are in shit…right…? Its like…someone intends to tell me that the time taken from the enter button to the top right button on the window takes less than a second..! Darn…thats depressing…

2. Can airlines please come up with a weekly magazine…reading the same thing 8 times a month is no fun..trust me.

3. Can vijay mallya please concentrate on improving the food on kingfisher…rather than blasting 11 individuals who have been running 23 km marathons for all their life…for not winning the 100mtr sprint..!

4. Can aaj tak please read the business description under which it is listed…! Last I checked it was meant to be a NEWS channel

5. and finally…can i please appeal to myself for not writing crap…even if it happens only once a month…

Updates – several!

1. www.gaadi.com
Its launched…plz check it out. We all are proud of it…and believe it is one of the strongest products in the car category in the indian space. and lo behold..within a month of its launch…gaadi.com is already India’s No 2 Car website. And I am convinced that we shall be No. 1 by end of the year…!

2. Am off to the US for 2 weeks…business trip. Ruchi is accompanying me…on vacation! Will be in NY..(which i hvnt been to…ever) and it shud be a fantastic photo opportunity. I jst believe that the US holds a lot of potential when it comes to portraits…! So lets see how well I do…really excited. Meeting a whole lot of people whom I hvnt for years…yuuhuuuuu

So well…i will keep writing…hopefully…and will share my pics soon…! Take care everyone…

Mornings with Sunday Part 4

Went to this fantastic place last weekend – Shaheen Bagh. Its a resort about 10 kms off Dehradun…! Beautifully done…quite majestic…and decently affordable. Rooms are available starting 4,500 (all meals included).

If at all you go…make sure you pick up the poolside room. Its somehow the cheapest but the best in terms of location.
For families, pick up the suite in the other cottage. Charges only 5,000 and can accomodate 4 people.

Lovely place to spend 2N/3D..maybe even more if your schedule permits! We spent only a night there…and felt it was a trifle too short…moreso given the drive to the place which can easily stretch to 6.5 hrs from Delhi in peak hours…!

Check out the place..

Shaheen Bagh Apr 08


and do go there…

Am back….

In Dubai for a week….the place hasnt changed much…but the feeling is so great…! I personally didnt think that I get attached to places…(it is people alone, used to be my explanation)…but I guess things are not so….

Great to be back…

PS: I know I was supposed to write 10 posts in the last month…and yeah…i hvnt written any. But lots to share…coming up right away…

Planning on the TV Campaign for SecondShaadi from Feb 15th..so really looking forward to that…its quite exciting to see your product come live on TV…! We are also working towards our new product scheduled for a beta launch in April. Quite a challenging exercise…keeping our minds decently busy all along…!
