Vijay Tendulkar interview
Terrorism is not always something that is against us. If it happens to be on our side, are we going to fight it?
Freeze the city

7/11, MUMBAI
RDX, timer device, serial blasts. The familiar fare. In just 11 minutes they kill 200 (official estimate) and maim about one thousand.
How dastardly that this time they target the common man who were returning home after the day's work in packed trains!
But do recall a similar, but big in dimension, act: cluster bombs, war planes, and common men dying in hordes. Yes, you get it. It's Iraq, and who're responsible out there?
There's not much difference between George Bush-Tony Blair duo, and these terrorists. Both get 'high' after their their achieved mayhem. They have similar mindset, though different agendas.
The fact of the matter is that they are all assholes, and are out to screw the mankind and the civilization.

ANANDA PATAWARDHAN
"India has laid claims to be America's newest bride, largely through the omissions and commissions of the media. We're thrilled to be seen on the arms of George Bush Jn. It's called an arms deal."

CUCKOO'S CALL
A blog by V.Ramaswamy,a friend of mine. Some time ago, finding his interest and involvement in so many things, I suggested he be a columnist. He comes up with a blog instead.
For me, Ramaswamy is quite a complex - somewhat enigmatic too - character, and though I'be known him for over a year, I still find him difficult to define.
He's a businessman. I feel he has pucca business sense. But he's a great reader, and has extensive knowledge about books and authors. His literay taste and sense are quite amazing.
He's a poet.
He's a good translator.
He's a skilled editor. He's editing my novel now. And what he sometimes suggests really makes sense.
He claims he's a social planner. I don't quite get it, and practically suspect him on this.
Every now and then he visits different universities abroad, and delivers lectures on things like poverty in India.
I've heard he sings well.
Initially I thought he suffers from lack of focus, but now I think he's eclectic in character. A rare quality at this time.
But above all, he's a hugely experienced guy.
Try reading his blog. It might be a rewarding reading experience.
