Here’s wishing you all a Very Happy Diwali. May there be light. But kindly try to keep down the noise and the smoke. :)

The shine in the eyes

I find kids hard to photograph as they rarely stay still.The task is made tougher when the light is low.

This little fellow walked into Deli9 in the afternoon today and I found it rather difficult not to click him. He was with his dad and it looked like he was expecting something that he was not quite getting. He kept looking expectantly at his dad. His face reflected the state of his mind. Innocence was personified.

YSR, RIP

Though there is not much I liked about his policies and governance, I think his death is very untimely. At a time when the country itself is struggling to find headstrong leaders, his loss means a lot to the state. I hope sanity prevails.

A Gujju IPL team

So me and my cousin got discussing about the next year’s IPL. It kicks-off in Hdyerabad(!). We eventually got talking about the new venues. One is Vizag. Which is the other? Ahemdabad? Not sure. I expressed surprise that there is no team from Gujarat playing in the IPL.  Whcih in turn led to the question of the day: If there was to be one, what would it be called?

Ideas flowed

Dhokla eleven
Thepla eleven
Undhiyo eleven
The Eleven Dandiyas

We stopped there and finished the dinner. But the thought intrigued me, so I added the following to the list:

Kem chho? eleven
Khakra eleven
Ambabad Senwiches
The Surat farsaan walas

I guess I’ll stop at that, lest all the Gujjus arnd me start chasing me around with steeks and rotten dhoklas.

Ermmmmm

Why are there countries?

Why do people grow?

What is religion?

Why do people die?

Why should I study?

What the heck is the deal with money?

Who are terrorists?

Why does Kekda Kapur do what she does?

Is she a terrorist too?

Why do you have hair on your hands and legs but not on your scalp?

One of the worst things about being a grown up is that you cannot walk up to your elders and ask rediculously simple questions that leave them speechless.

I know the question on your mind right now is how is all this related to the picture of a dog. Well, just like that. You’ll understand when you grow up.
