Melange

The Dose :Pilot Shujaat Khan casually strolled on the dias and took controls of the Magical space ship we were about to venture into and get lost. Wow! Am i still lost ? I guess i can just say that i am still at the very center of that bliss and floating on Ragas and Alaaps.
Karsh Kale on drums was great with his beat matching and did a brilliant solo. Tim Ries and Kevin, ex rolling stones were fab on sax and piano respectively.
' This is what i call music ', thus spake Ustaad Shujaat Khan when Tim Ries matched him on the sax for a song they had not prepared together.
The Setting : It almost looked like a magical hinterland with a backdrop of Calcutta Turf Club, Victoria memorial peeking in with white shimmer augmented by the full moon with just the perfect chill in the air.
The Set : Needless to say, I was kicked about this concert since the time i heard about it. I wanted this to be an endless concert. So far, it has proved me right.

How I Got Trapped in a Crypto Scam in India — And What Every Investor Must Know Before Investing in Any Crypto Startup

I Don't Honk - Kolkata Chapter

We have all honked our way ahead on the streets of Kolkata. That's the way it is always meant to be. Precisely why our ugly behemoths -namely trucks and lorries have it written on the back - Horn Ok Please. So that's imbibed in our culture. Everyone subconsciously agrees to this sound of music. In the culture that we have collectively amassed; it is a widely acceptable norm. In fact, there are various categories of honking : 1. The Big car irritable long honks - Get out of my way you slow moving vehicle. Can't you see I'm wheeling an expensive drive. Well, only to be stuck 50 meters ahead in traffic. 2. The taxi horn that goes honk honk after every 30 seconds. They sometimes do it even at the traffic light just because they get bored and are often times without a music player. 3. The warning deep growl of a swerving giant - I'm going to maneuver and overtake. So you better move away you tiny marutis ( which is a de facto name for all 4 wheelers regardless ...

Inception- The movie

Flawless execution. To the uninitiated, Inception is a movie that instantly defies conformance. And no one but Chris Nolan could have handled it with so much specific-ity ( you'll know what i mean if you've seen the movie ). The movie traverses a dreamers voyage. YOU are the dreamer, we all are. I found a profound message hidden in one of the layers of the entire idea. All of us live in a dreamscape and the only true nature of our environment is elusiveness. Nothing lasts. We are all lucid dreamers. Stop waiting for the kick to settle in. Bon voyage.
