Got a first hand account of how an affluent school in the Mbai suburbs starts the discussion on admission with a list of cars that a parent must own to drop their child to school. Of course it doesn’t include Ertiga! They move ahead if this criterion is fulfilled.

Today I asked my daughter whether she knows when my birthday is. She said it’s on the day she was born! In a way, it’s true. A mother is born with the child.

Today I was not driven to work but flown. In an auto rickshaw. The driver took every vehicle in the front as a personal challenge and got me to my workplace in record time. I was obviously remembering God and every person I have loved.

Did you not hear about the struggle Ranveer Singh had to face that he ended up only going to the US on all his vacations?! He was more middle

When will people realise that it is not ok to randomly spit on roads? I see all sorts of people spitting for no reason on the roads every few minutes. Do they think they’re immune to diseases? High time authorities start charging hefty sums for this.

is a difficult task in today’s times, especially when a classmate of your 6 YO daughter tells other kids they’re not worthy of being her friend! How does this kind of elitism slip into kids’ psyche like this?

refuses to stay over at my mom’s so we leave in spite of wanting to stay. Today I told her I will courier you to our house. All she wanted to know was whether they will pack/take her in a box! 😳

How can I forget! Stuck overnight on a bus in Santacruz from 3 PM. The driver got us to Andheri station the next morning and I walked to Goregaon to my aunt’s before heading home the day after. All this on an empty stomach. An experience to remember.

Visited one of the most iconic and beautiful libraries I have seen! Also visited the Book of Kells (created by Celtic monks circa 800 AD) exhibition and realised how we too need to invest in restoring and maintaining our old treasures back home.
