The Royal Touch at the Taj Faluknama Palace Hyderabad

The Taj Falaknuma Palace was a hotel I chose to stay on on a whim. It had just opened and I was curious! I had stayed in all the iconic Taj Palaces across the country and this was a hotel I had heard amazing things about…so after a show in Hyderabad , we decided to checkContinue reading “The Royal Touch at the Taj Faluknama Palace Hyderabad”

Help me!

“Help me!” – two words that have got such a bad reputation in the English language! “Help me!”- shows weakness.”Help me!”- shows inability. “Help me!”- is pathetic, laughable, unmanly,namby-pamby and just downright sad! Instead of asking for help , it seems to make more sense to commit suicide, kill others, kill ourselves, commit divorce, burnContinue reading “Help me!”

You are a survivor!

People are horrible. They are mean. They make opinions when they don’t know you. They are harsh, self centered, rude and callous. People are horrible. They lie to your face. They forget you. They replace you. They hurt you- knowingly, unknowingly. People are horrible. But then there are some- a few among a swarm ofContinue reading “You are a survivor!”

HongKong-ing to some fun sights!

It had been a while since my last trip (when I was a teenager) to Hong Kong. Aditya had visited HongKong last on July 1 , 1997 (his birthday )- the day where the hand over happened of HongKong from the UK to China. We had both had incredibly wonderful and memorable trips to HongContinue reading “HongKong-ing to some fun sights!”

Take a Chance on Change!

To start over…something must end. To say hello… sometimes we have to say goodbye.To laugh again…sometimes we need to have cried! Divya Palat  It’s so hard when things are over when we just keep holding on! I realised this when I produced my first set of shows and the run was complete and as everyoneContinue reading “Take a Chance on Change!”

The only target that counts aka I am amazing!

And it’s that time of year again where you hang up the keds and say – “Well this is it! I did it!” You accept that a year has gone by and you’re not much wiser, but funnily enough a heck of lot older. You’re not much richer but still have lots of unpaid billsContinue reading “The only target that counts aka I am amazing!”
