I worked out way more between 2020-2022 (and even the 10 years before that) compared to what I did between 2022 and 2024. So, what really changed to make such a difference in just the last 2 years? Here’s what I’ve learned, simplified for you: /thread

Finally watched Dhurandar after all the hype, first time I stepped into a theatre in almost a year, and honestly, it delivered. Ranveer Singh is outstanding in a restrained, powerful role. Akshaye Khanna steals every frame, Madhavan is brilliant, and the entire cast adds real

SHAME ON YOU @IndiGo6E, One of my biggest events of the year is in danger of getting cancelled because of your absolute incompetence. Since morning 10AM, we are here at the Pune airport. Our flight was first rescheduled from 1:05PM to 1:25PM, then 3:30PM, and now 6PM. Every

Even if IBTR is delayed, one thing I want to assure you, WE ARE DOING IT. Everything was booked. Hotels, studio, production, cabs, food… every single detail locked. And yes, this postponement means the entire cost now doubles for us. But IBTR is not just another video for me.

IndiGo is in a terrible state right now. Flights getting cancelled one after another, chaos at the gates, passengers arguing with crew, zero communication. My own flight has been delayed with no clarity, we’ve been at the airport for 2 hours just waiting for any update. If

Finally, the most important clarification is here, you will be able to uninstall the Sanchaar Saathi app from your smartphone. Yes, it’s optional. Good move, because the intention behind the app is solid (fraud prevention, IMEI tracking, SIM misuse checks), but forcing it on

It was genuinely fun attending the Meta Creator event yesterday in Mumbai. Met a lot of friends from the creator community, and yes… also spotted David Beckham and Samantha Prabhu. Thank you @Meta for the invite!

Meet Myaw Myaw, the newest (and very unexpected) member of the @TrakinTech family today. Sneha from our team found this little kitten on her way to office, hungry, shivering and alone, so she picked her up and brought her straight in. After that, the whole office stopped.

Gautam Gambhir was once the hero who delivered India to World Cup victories, big finals, and big moments. But as a coach… we have to be honest. This phase, especially in Tests, has been a disaster. 0–2 whitewash at home. 5 straight home Test losses. First home series loss to

Everyone is talking about how EVs have poor resale value, but there’s another side to this story. Yes, depreciation looks high on paper, but you have to factor in how the tax system is designed. Also, please remember that electric vehicles get 40 per cent depreciation if bought

Totally agree. Being from Pune, I’ve seen this up close, the city is exploding in size but not in soul. We’re Maharashtra’s fastest-growing city, yet still stuck with a Tier-2 airport, weak public infra, no strict traffic rules, reckless driving everywhere, and a metro that’s

Pune despite being Maharashtra's fastest growing city and probably India's largest fast growing city is neglected Due to shadows of capital Mumbai, Pune has a Tier 2 city airport, barely any public infra and poor roads City would have been an example giant in any other state

Look, @anandmahindra @MahindraRise, the XEV 9E is a brilliant EV when it works. But this entire experience has shaken my confidence. With ICE cars, you at least know what’s wrong. With EVs like this? You’re completely helpless. It’s just a black box.

It’s now been 3 days since the car’s been at the service center. Every day, the same update: “Sir, we’re still diagnosing the issue.” No clarity. No car. No timeline.

A @Mahindra_Auto technician came, reset it, and asked me to bring it in. The very next day i.e November 7th, it failed again, just 2 minutes after starting. This time, they sent a team, connected it to a laptop, and towed it to the service center.
