North East: Why do I love being here?

North East: Why do I love being here?

The word 'Racism' induces a fair amount of discomfort, given its contrasting connotation to the official 'Unity in Diversity'. Having stayed in Delhi for most part of my life, the tension with respect to the people of North East has always been palpable in the city. Honestly I was also unaware about the behavior and culture of these people. I had never interacted with anyone from that part of the country and whenever the tabloids featured news on discrimination to these people, I always wondered if there was any logical explanation. It felt as though there was an intangible demarcation and it didn't seem right. Such events were sporadic and over the years it created a string of misconceptions in my mind.

The Real Stars!

The Real Stars!

I’m trying to search for a good beginning. But honestly I’m at a loss of words. The literary scholars say that a catchy start can win you the appreciation for your piece, so I guess I’ve lost out on that. It so happens sometimes when something is very close to your heart you fail to express it. The perfect argument to this maybe “then why are you writing at all ?” ( I got a start..now we’re talking!!). I think this is a great platform to share my 33 months of work experience at the Paralympic Committee of India. ”But why would anyone be interested in YOUR experience? Isn’t that a little, rather very pompous of you? ”My defense : No no..Just hear (sorry read) me out.

Digital Media, Pop Culture and why it’s the best time to be in Marketing!

Digital Media, Pop Culture and why it’s the best time to be in Marketing!

It’s crazy how quickly we pick up things and make it a part of our lingo, and sometimes our lives. Take the ‘mauka mauka’ commercials for example. We cannot watch a cricket match without them.  They’re hilarious. I can’t write this without humming ‘mauka mauka’ and I bet neither can you read this is without humming ‘mauka mauka’. Stupid isn’t it? We enjoy it nevertheless.

The Art of Acing Interviews - The Politically Incorrect Version

The Art of Acing Interviews - The Politically Incorrect Version

It was not too long back when my love for speaking outshone my interview skills by a humiliating margin. Back then, even the thought of me giving someone an interview tip to someone would've been plain outrageous. But this is how time U-turns, my first Gyaan Capsule to the gory world of aspirant community. But don't judge me yet, I still have my 2 cents to dispense.
