It is that time of year when IPL (Indian premier league) is back.Basically it is the tournament to play T20 cricket matches in India. There is a ongoing controversy over IPL matches being hosted in Maharashtra. Several states in India are facing severe drought and Maharashtra is one of them. Court case has been filed to move all IPL matches from Maharashtra - reason being too much use of water to host these matches. I must admit that i am too confused to take side on this issue. it seems logical to stop all water usage activities which can be marked as luxury.Certainly watching/hosting cricket is not a must requirement to live. On the other side issue seems to be political. By far almost everyone knows that Cricket in India is not just a sport, it is all about passion/ heroes/ superheroes / Sachin :-) .

Ahh my sweet angel turns 2 today. Happy birthday dear Aishna!! Cant believe its been 2 years ...seems like yesterday when i was holding you for first time in operation theatre. A tiny little angel who could fit on my hand ( I have pic!!) and now who is tall enough to start gas burner :P.

Be it a common place like garden,school or your house - it will be series of Age vs other kids vs Aishna. Life for aishna has been quite different . From giving us all a big scare when she was insider her mom ( Ankita...
I am in india for vacation. Came after 2 years.. Life in india has changed a lot. Its been 7 years now since i left india for studies and job.. since then i am visiting india almost every december except last year. But every time(year) i come here - it feels i am stuck in the old 7 year old (Aug 2007) past . I still see my cousins as kids - although now they are near their matrimony age. they have grown up.. pune has grown up and grown western.. halloween parties ...miami club ..thoushand oaks seems to be normal conversation and weekly routine ... dresses / food habits / talks are almost same here and there ... Also i feel the 7 year old past because - first time i am working from a company here.. i travel daily to IT park Hinjewadi for my company issues. Its been a struggle to commute daily through traffic and company bus. Yeah i know how exactly it sounds...an NRI guy cribbing about indian roads/ pollution / traffic blah blah.. I always thought that i wont be the guy wh...
