Bombay Burning!
The spirit of Bombay is a well known thing. Bombay is a great host to anyone who comes here and most of my friends call Bombay, the safest place to live in. But, this time, we feel betrayed. Betrayed from walking on the street, betrayed from roaming around near the Gateway, betrayed from having a beer with friends at Colaba. It is truely saddening that the value for human life is particularly not...

I got my new Sony Handycam which Jani sent me from the States and I am still dying to make good...

Hoysala Architecture Trip
Well, I have now completed 3 Hoysala temples (Somnathpur where I went with my dad way back in 2004, Belur and Halebidu) out of the 92 temples that they built. I know about the whereabouts of one more in Arsikere, but am unaware of the others. I just came back from a trip to Belur, Halebidu and Sharavanabelagola. Myself, Kalyan, Shaishav, Govind and Rathi started at around 6 30 in the morning...
