Overall, Superman 2025 is worth a watch!!!
Review: James Gunn’s Superman I don’t usually review movies on this blog, but this one absolutely warranted a deeper dive. As a die-hard fan of Zack Snyder’s take on Superman — especially through Henry Cavill’s powerful performances — it was difficult for me to imagine anyone else donning the cape. Snyder’s gritty, mythic tone had…

The Curious Case of My Toddler, Tomatoes, and Dirty Water
Another day, another grand adventure with Sahiba!!! The other day, I watched my toddler pick up a tiny tomato, dip it in a cup of water — water that had already seen bits of banana, crumbs of bread, and something unidentifiably squishy — and then eat it with utter satisfaction. My wife, a fierce advocate of hygiene and cleanliness,…

The kind of thing that pops up when you’re trying to do something responsible like paying bills or sleeping. It reminded me of…

Five Years on Rent in Canada — A Tenant’s Tale of Bittersweet Survival (With a Side of Existential Rent-Pain) Disclaimer — I wholeheartedly certify that no landlords were harmed in the making of this article — and honestly, it’s definitely not aimed at anyone in particular.

Found my youngest Fan
Breaking news: I’ve found the youngest reader of my first book Version One and a Half — my 21-month-old daughter, Sahiba! She proudly calls it “Chotu Dada – Young Dada”, pointing to the childhood photo of me on the cover like she’s just discovered baby Shakespeare. Watching her “read” (aka flip pages and occasionally attempt to eat them)…

The journey of a parent
I’m a storyteller, but poetry was never part of my plan. I don’t read it — let alone write it — so when I shared these lines with a friend, she was more than a little surprised. It took me over 20 months to write this. I’m not sure if they’re any good, but that’s…

Voices from Beyond
How Uncontrolled Thoughts Became My Creative Strength!!! “My mind is like a railway track, where the bullet train of my thoughts races without pause—fast, loud, and often without direction.” From my book Diary from Heaven For as long as I can remember, my mind has never been silent. Even in moments of stillness, there’s been…
