We are back after a complete shutdown by a phenomenon called ‘Bharat Bandh’. Was the purpose served? The road wore a blank look, buses were pelted stones at, and few public properties damaged. Finally, who had to suffer? The Common Man. As a common man we have to rise against such nonsensical acts. We can do that through various mediums among which blogs is one such medium. It might help a long way in creating awareness. We are seeing amazing blogs being written and wonderful posts being churned week after week. We pick the best out of them in our weekly picks for your reading pleasure.

What : Revelations Of An Afterlife..
Tangy : The line “we may ‘succeed’ many times in life but we are not a ‘success’ until we share it with everyone else around us”, from the post sums the post perfectly. A brilliantly written post by Keshi. - Who : Ritu
What : Unplanned Trip to Jaipur
Tangy : This is an account of a solo, unplanned trip taken by a woman. And that on an occasion like New Year’s Eve. We hope more Indian women shed their inhibitions about travel and take off on the paths they fancy, with or without a companion is how the post starts. We want to see more such posts from more such brave women. π - Who : …

What : Chatting up with Amit Trivedi

His 18 tracks for Dev D put him in the top league and with a string of interesting releases to come, this may very well be the year when he wins an award. VIP has managed to interview him where he asks him about his idol, movies and more. - Who : Usha Raman

Tangy : Everyone has to turn Grey sometime or the other. How does it feel to enter the ‘Grey zone’ of your life? How do people perceive it is what the post is about. A must read.
