Podcast - Bus Kahani Hai

Image
T his post is dedicated to introducing my Podcast - Bus Kahani Hai . I have made this podcast with an intention to connect to people through my voice. This is not only a means of sharing my views and stories with the world but is also a medium to talk to myself.   A podcast is a good medium to connect with people as it does not demand the attention of your eyes; all it wants from you is to lend your ears. Often when you are commuting on a bus or in a metro, listening to a podcast can be a great idea: All you need is an earphone and bingo! My Podcast - Bus Kahani Hai has a Trailer as an introduction and episodes that are published from time to time. All the episodes so far have been archived below with dedicated links for one-click listening. Also, it is my humble request to leave your valuable feedback and comments on this post or on my  Instagram page   https://www.instagram.com/neoimaginations/     Twitter handle  Bus Kahani Hai              Latest Episodes Episode 4 : Khidki Ke Baa

DISCLAIMER ! The Indian Way.

                                    Of lately the television media and film industry is completely obsessed with " Disclaimer" tag as a preface to the shows to be aired. Nothing can reach the viewers until and unless a Disclaimer notice is shown  as a first shot. The hero smokes a cigarette in a movie and before it is lighted the disclaimer script will run beneath the screen and read as " Smoking or chewing of Tobacco is injurious to health". Is nt that pathetic ? Who the hell ,watching the movie doesn't know that million dollar fact ? We all know what is good, what is bad. what is healthy and what is unhealthy.Does it stop anybody from adopting what he or she likes in the movie (good or bad) ? Why aren't the filmmakers taking the responsibility of what they are trying to show or sell ? Why are they just trying to clear their  hands by hoisting a "Disclaimer Flag".  Do we think that Disclaimers can devoid the flaws of wrong depiction

                        It is my debut blog award and therefore very special. Visiting the blogosphere I saw you residence at renowned blog walls. I always coveted you to be mine someday. Always thought someday I will have one to my blog too. Seeing my friend bloggers nominations, my eyes always searched the list for my name secretly without even letting me know that I was looking for myself.                           They say, you get what you are attracted for, what you dream for. So violating all boundaries of time and probabilities you reached me much before I expected you though craved for you. Thank you Kavya for giving me this privilege and a major morale boost. Also I thank all my dear readers who ushered me with “Liebster Blog Award”.  Liebster (the word means kindest, dearest, beloved, cute, endearing in German) is an award that you accept with an intention of paying it forward. Having received one I learnt that it is a blogger to blogger award and has

Chole Bature Fiasco - A Laughing Riot

               My wife is a super specialist Chole Bature maker. Her art is so much recognized mutually that almost 100 % of our guest had Chole-Bature for dinner invites. If they are non-vegetarians they get to taste my dam biriyani else its a pure chole bature affair.                                                                              It was one fine afternoon when she decided to make Chole-Bature for lunch. I was excited as i usually get for anything that undergoes a deep frying ceremony. I love to hog on fried foods. So all excited i returned from office for lunch. As i grabbed on the very first Batura that came to my plate i was bit confused if it was really a batura. It almost felt like i was eating pappad with chole. My crispy tear of batura was a matter of avoiding eye contacts. I consoled myself that the next batura would be absolutely fine but it came out to be even a better pappad. Finally my dear wife could not hold her patience and agreed that something w
