I have known Laila Waziralli and Diva Ganriwal for a few years now. In fact I used to take Laila’s dog, Noodles, for a walk many years ago when we lived in the same locality. They lived a few houses down from ours in the same lane. Noodles would walk over to our house with […]

Indira Bhardwaj, of the erstwhile Right Lines Art Gallery called me up a few weeks ago asking if I would be willing to participate in a charity auction to help raise money for Vathsalya – an orphanage that is completing 25 years. The answer of course was yes. I would have to draw inspiration from […]
My flight landed at the Goa Airport to sweltering heat. I was a little nervous, not really sure of what the next three days were going to be about. And then I saw a military jet do a near vertical take off and I was home. It brought back memories of living in airbases growing […]
