We attended Night Lights at downtown Auckland yesterday. The show entailed transformation of the heritage Ferry Building into an interactive playground of light. It was spectacular to say the least. I wished that I had a better camera. On a very busy phase of my life, it was a welcome change. Here are some pictures that I took.

I was very angry with Karan Johar for apologising to the MNS chief. Anyway, I never had much regard for the so called “Bollywood” fraternity and this incident gave me another reason to comment on their shallow values.

After reading this article by another director, Hansal Mehta, my sympathies are with such people. To some extent probably I can understand why Karan apologised.

I guess sometimes in order to prevent atrocities you need to take a step backward. However for how long such things would continue in India?

Recently, I was asked why do Indians eat with their fingers. I talked about the reasons which I knew – such as provided in this article (link), however I am not really convinced by these reasons.

Are these the real reasons behind this or we were forced by some Vedic rituals?

Can someone enlighten me on this?
