Will You Marry Me??

“Will you marry me??” Ashutosh asks.
“Ashu I really don’t know what to say” I say and try to avoid his eye contact.

“Say yes….it’s your last chance...I won’t be asking you again” He smiles mischievously.
  This Ashu na!! Ufffff. For any girl “Will you marry me??” is the once in a lifetime question but I am one of those rare species who had this privilege to face the same question “4” times and more importantly from the very same person. Isn’t that weird!!

  Ashutosh,  my besest fri...

Its All About -----------!!!!!

This post has its roots from a very interesting conversation I had with my office friends recently. Since few of them are married,WE, the waiting-in-line to find our respective “knights in shining armour”, excitedly started questioning our hitched friends about various aspects that makes a marriage work. And when they started discussing over it I kind of lost interest midway over their usual cliché points like; trust, compromise, love, care, adjustments  blah blah blah! So by the time I...

For Your Eyes Only!!!

“This is just the perfect setting to enjoy a lazy Saturday morning. Two sizzling cups of Irish coffees, the most beautiful girl in the world sitting right opposite to me and this giant album which I just discovered from my brother’s cupboard after around 20 years” Kabir said with an excitement level of a 4 year old lost right in the middle of Disneyland.
  Kabir, my fiancé, was a free spirited guy. He was born to live life to the fullest. He had this amazing zest to try out everythin...

A Tale Of Green Bangles

 Nikita Sharma or rather I should say Nicky, fittingly called so for her ultra-cute looks and slightly plum buildup confined into a tiny frame of height 5 feet 1 inch, was one chirpy little girl who by the way was an intelligent SAP consultant in a Mumbai based MNC, but may be cos of her miniature looks, she could have easily given any college going chick, a run for her money. Known for her exuberant persona and an adorable nature, she undoubtedly was a darling among her peers.

THE LAST LOOK!

  In spite of being this fiercely urban and smart girl, Aisha had a little superstitious attribute which she carried wherever she went. No it was nothing like changing the route if a black cat crossed her way or refraining from taking any important decisions on Friday the 13th. NO! It was rather a very cute and harmless superstition. She had this staunch belief that the chance of meeting a person again, increases manifolds if she looks back at that person for one more time after bidding...

My Platinum day of love with my hero!

    Our’s was an arrange marriage. I was a bubbly, outgoing girl from Bangalore and my husband, Major Vikrant Sharma was an officer in Indian Army. I was a Bollywood Buff since my childhood who used to visualise life as a perfect fairy tale right out of those glossy Yashraj sets. I always dreamt of being with a man who would sweep me off my feet with his romantic gestures. Red roses, Teddy Bears, candle lit dinners, long walks on beach, holding each other’s hands epitomised “LO...

Shudh Desi Laugh!

   Well it’s been a whole week and Bollywood already had few new Friday releases so there is no point in me reviewing Shudh Desi Romance and specially when there are cool sites like IMDB and CNN IBN for better analysis. So all I would do today is just quickly discuss about two exceptional points stated in the movie by my personal favourite character, Taara,played by Vaani Kappoor.
   
   Vaani Kappoor, Yash raj’s new catch reminded me of a younger ve...

Are You a 100% Girl??

This post has its roots reigning back from my yesterday’s chit-chat with an office friend. Coincidently we both wore the same colored shirt to the office. The moment we saw each other we had a hearty laugh and I told her about the famous joke which I am sure everyone is aware of;
When two girls attend a party and the moment they see each other in similar ensembles, its quiet obvious for them to think the below;
“Bitch! How dare she wear the same dress?”
But if the same thing happens in case with...

Things your ex-gf say to confuse you when you try to get back!

  A recent conversation with a friend prompted me to write this post. My friend was telling about how ex-girlfriends are such confused souls and they never know what they “really” want, especially when an ex-boyfriend tries to reconcile. So I just thought of putting up an “agony aunt” hat today and spill the beans about the “confusion”, you guys always accuse us for.
(These interpretations are totally based on my ways of thinking and since I am girl I would like to believe that they are 9...

My review on the Book-"Losing my Virginity and other dumb ideas" by Madhuri Banerjee

   Of course the title is so outrageous that it will prompt the youngsters to buy one copy instantly. And with a cover like that it’s really hard to save your eyeballs from popping out. Madhuri Banerjee’s much appreciated novel “Losing my Virginity and other dumb ideas” is an offbeat book with an international flavor.
  It is a bold and spunky story of a 30 year old virgin, Kaveri and her journey of finding true love. If she finally gets the love of her life; forms the...
