Somebody else has actually read my blog !

My friend Krishna Kumar was the first one to have read my blog. Now another reader, Twinsy Rachel, a former student of my wife (who teaches French) has written in to say 'hi'. Thanks Twincy. We are both well and we hope you too are fine. Where are you now, and what do you do?

God bless Shah Rukh Khan!

Some months ago I had written in this blog that I would never again see an SRK movie! I hereby eat my words! Not only will I see his "My Name is Khan", but I will also root for him all the way to Malabar Hill or wherever he lives in Mumbai.

I am so happy that somebody has finally stood up to the bullying tactics of the Shiv Sena and their crazy goons. And I compliment the citizens of Mumbai for braving it out and going out boldly to see the movie in hundreds of thousands. Long live India- an India that belongs to everyone irrespective of whether he/she is a Hindu or Muslim or Maharashtrian or Bihari. This was the concept that our Founding Fathers had envisaged and now it's upto us, the people, to make their cherished dream come true by vowing never to be split along sectarian lines. Jai Hind!
