Unplugged - Anything Anywhere!!: What did AAP do so right that everyone else was left nowhere?
http://sudiptounplugged.blogspot.com/2015/02/what-did-aap-do-so-right-that-everyone.html
Unplugged - Anything Anywhere! Tuesday, February 10, 2015. What did AAP do so right that everyone else was left nowhere? Such an election outcome is sure to evoke a wide range of reactions. The media should thank AAP the most for giving them the fodder to rant and chant for the next may weeks. Arnab Goswami's vocal chords would vibrate precariously. Bloggers and tweeters and whatsappers will spend most of their bandwidth in posting/forwarding pictures of Kejriwal in various avatars. Negative things don't...

Unplugged - Anything Anywhere! Sunday, January 11, 2015. If your sentiments, religious or otherwise, are hurt, that's your problem. I can't comment about others, but if you go by the Indian way of life, you can't actually hurt your sentiments, religious or otherwise. Let me cut the diamond with a diamond itself. Our definition of religion itself is different from that of everyone else. The Monier Williams Sanskrit dictionary gives the following meanings for the word dharma. Is actually the soul. Such is ...

Unplugged - Anything Anywhere! Sunday, November 2, 2014. How my personal history inspired me to write a historical fiction. In fact it’s a well-known trend now a days.

Unplugged - Anything Anywhere! Saturday, January 24, 2015. What's objectionable and what not? Are holding hands, hugging or kissing objectionable? What about teen sex in schools? What is good and what's bad? Holding hands and hugging may pass the censor board, but kissing? Well, may get a nod with some cuts. And teen sex in school? Don't you have any sense? What will become of our country if we allow such things to pollute the young minds of our kids? I didn't have teen sex. Does that mean that I've ...

Unplugged - Anything Anywhere! Saturday, December 20, 2014. PK: Simplicity is not a simple thing.

Well, as I just mentioned any piece of art, and a good one that too, is expected to evoke extreme reactions, like Hyder did in the recent past. So there's nothing to debate about. PK just reminded me of a few lines from Tagore, few of his songs, which have always inspired me. held me from breaking down,...

Unplugged - Anything Anywhere! Monday, June 23, 2014. Jatishwar - the movie. Seeing Jatiswar for the first time today was one of those 'wow' moments that come rarely in life. It's sad that I saw it so late. But better late than never. And more enriching was the adda with Srijit Mukherji. The director of the movie. We met after more than 5 years. Posted by Sudipto Das.
