How to start a new soap without starting one!

However much that I may loathe all the crap that is dished out by Colors Channel, I must commend them for their brilliant idea in starting a new soap without actually getting down to starting one. Here's how. A very famous serial goes by the name Na Aana Iss Des Laado   (can't believe they have a wikipedia page dedicated to it!). This serial was actually going nowhere - tonnes of violence, bandits on loose after a family of equally corrupt people. Strange this family was a reputed one still but that is another story. Kids being given birth in all sorts of places (they could give Jesus Christ a run for his money in terms of his place of birth). And, the last you see is 2 little girls coming to this world amongst gunfire, their parents dead.  Next Episode. 18 years later. Those 2 little girls are now hot, young and college going. The family is no longer chased by bandits. They have moved to a great locality in New Delhi. Hell, the matriarch even goes for morning walks to Lod

Delhi IndiBlogger Meet

It was a great idea to head for the Delhi IndiBlogger Meet. Finally, after many weekends spent just like that, a Saturday when I ventured out. The meet was scheduled at The Religare Art Gallery at the K.G. Marg in Connaught Place. Apart from having met some great bloggers (hopefully, will get to receive some pics and comments back here!), it was great to win some rocking treats from www.mydala.com  (I thought it wouldn't be fair if I enjoy the treats and not mention the sponsors!) Here is a pic of what was in the goody bag, entirely to evoke some envy! Connaught Place never fails to bring that 'Ah, I love this about Delhi!' feeling. Same old buildings though shiny now with restoration, great shops, winter days with amazing thelas selling everything from groundnuts to the piping hot tea - Ah, I love Delhi! Connaught Place is truly a 'Why Not Place?!' as the Religare Art Gallery would say...
