The “Book Bucket” Challenge
Thanks to all the people who inundated my Facebook timeline by bathing with their clothes on or telling the world the most pretentious books they could think of, that they had read. Without Facebook, I would not have known my friends needed a bath so badly or were so well read. Someone tagged me somewhere, so here are my ten books for the book challenge thing.

Who is Next ?
I have been reading a lot of posts criticizing Dhoni esp after what happened in the last T20 ODI between and England Vs India and someone even said that Why he is still captain of India. I have tried to take up this question based on whatever limited amateur knowledge I am having in cricket.

"I want to create a culture of story-telling again in our country" - Kunj Sanghvi, Author and alumnus of MICA
Kunj Sanghvi needs no formal introduction on our platform. He is the man who bet on himself. Having left his cushy job at a media company, he embarked on a journey across all of India, with the aim of publishing a book of short stories at the end of it all. The book, Side Upper, was published by Leadstart Publishing's imprint, Frog Books and is available on leading online stores (See below the interview for links). Meanwhile, Kunj has reentered the corporate world. And achieved celebrity status for his literary exploits (view his TED talk at TEDx XLRI. )

The Course of life
Every time I feel low, a writer starts budding in me. This obviously does not cheer me up but mitigates the feeling and loosens my threads of mental agony. Additionally it gives me a constructive pass time.

The same 'TIME', but through a different eye
A word which boasts of a whopping twenty – seven different meanings in Merriam Webster‘s lexicon – a word which science has failed to bind within the geometrical constrains of the English language. The elusive word in context here is ‘TIME’ – an enigma in itself. My objective here is not to add to the existing list of definitions and hence, contribute to the confusion, but to analyse, perhaps visualize and eventually attempt to realize what time actually is. I solemnly confess that my approach is neither inspired by Hawkings’ perspective, nor is it Newtonian in method – but is rather oriented towards the Shakespearan, the Freudian, or maybe even the Kafkaesque. Philosophers & scientists both have understood and believed that time is stretchable – indeed, it stretches from the alpha to the omega. It stretches from the severing of the umbilical cord of a new-born to the time when he has his ‘time’ up in this mortal world – and in between, it encapsulate joy, sorrow, anger, jealously, sacrifice, love, and every other emotion humanly possible.

Views on the markets by Drishtee Capital of VGSoM IIT Kharagpur
So, India has a new PM. A new hope. As the markets celebrate a some kind of a Pre-Diwali I decided to have a browse with what Drishtee Capital the very own student run investment fund of VGSoM IIT Kharagpur thinks about the challenges to be faced by the new government, the country in its new term after election and most importantly the most liked man of the hour –Narendra Modi !!.
