| Dream, reality...nightmare? The grime under his chipped fingernail is inky black as he points in the direction he wants me to take. "Sirji aap gol chakar se dahiney haath mud jao, phir ring road se outer ring road ko ho lena...bas." He has a belly that I can rest my breakfast tray on, a handlebar moustache that coils funnily at the tips and a dark ...

| I must have been three when I first sat on the handle bar of my dad's Hero cycle. He had installed a small seat so that my derriere would be cushioned against the unavoidable bumps on the road. I would sit wide eyed holding the front bar feeling the breeze hit my face as we would ride to Juhu beach every Sunday. This was our weekly ritual; a treat ...

| The Open Roots III | |
| The anticipation was not without reason. Surrounding the main building are series of plaques that explain the rich history of the shrine, the people, the construction and the sacrifices entailed to make it a reality. Surprisingly it stirred a feeling of awe, respect and a hint of pride. Was I experiencing my first sense of belonging? The thought ra...

| The Open roots - II | |
| Our first stop was Delhi. I am surprised they have not put up an ‘under construction’ banner that can be seen from the plane while you circle in to land. Delhi – a city caught in the throes of a persistent dust storm thanks to the mass digging of its roads in the wake of the metro and flyover frenzy that promises to deliver a world class capital ci...

| Doctors Office |
| They always ask at the doctor's office why you are there, and you have to answer in front of others what's wrong and sometimes it is embarrassing. There's nothing worse than a Doctor's Receptionist who insists you tell her what is wrong with you in a room full of other patients. I know most of us have experienced this, and I love the way this old g...
