Dharmesh Sanghvi
It was the day of Mumbai blasts. It was pouring and traffic and standing on the bus stop. All of Mumbai was called on to show the spirit. We saw it. This corporate slowed down offered a lift and dropped us till our last location even taking a detour. Too good! He rocks!!

Risk is when you are not prep for it


So true is above one phrase when you are living in risky environment physically, literally and financially. When you are prepared, all risk are adventures or point of learning and growing. Be prepared.


Off our times and ages : SM and HRK

So true is the striking difference between the two foreign ministers of India and Pakistan. While SM reflects the growing age of Parliamentarian and need to move on, HRK is too show-off strategy thrown by Pakistan to show of its inclusive politics. Neither India is so old today nor is Pakistan so neo-liberal. Its not of our time and ages.


Life is all about evoking responses

More than once, in last two years. It was a challenge thrown at me, who are all the people you aspire to know and work with. I had my list from Michael Porter, Philip Kotler, Amartya Sen, E Sreedharan, Menaka Doshi, Jean Dreeze, Sam Pitroda and more. While difficult to say why this whole lot, but I have been able to. It was not what they replied but my asking was invoking enough for a response.

The Syntel march: Dil Chahta Hai.

It was a downpour till I got down from the bus and started moving towards office; at the Galleria turn, I saw this bunch of 15 odd people moving in tri-line; mesmerized in their own world. Listening to each other. Doing their bit of debating of the world. Still remember times at TCS, lunch time ; 20 odd freaks would wreck the hell out of everything around and all over the world.
There is a scene in Dil Chahta Hai, when returning from Australia,
Aakash is driving to office and he sees his college times , Sid , Sameer and himself being there and he has that reminiscent movement. So was this, I could just recall the parking area of TCS and 20 odd freaks, free on their will and Together.
When you get to walk, do walk. It not only let you observe things around but also recollect good cherished memories
