I’ve got two tickets to Enrique’s concert in Mumbai on the 30th that I, unfortunately, won’t be able to attend. Selling them at cost price i.e ₹12k for both!

To my boys…. my team…. my champs….”these blessed candles of the night” …. My Stars…of KKR.
I cannot do a lot of things and you cannot do them all either…but together we manage most of them. That’s what @KKRiders stood for. Simply being together. Beyond the ability and guidance of @GautamGambhir….the earnestness of Chandu, the love of @abhisheknayar1 & leadership of @ShreyasIyer15... the dedication of @rtendo27, Bharat Arun @1crowey & @Numb3z... this team is built on no hierarchy just pure respect for collaboration. GG said if u can’t support a single vision as a team….u are leading to a division in the team. Each player understood that. Young and old. The Trophy is not a testament of having the best players in the team….but a proof of each player being the best for the team. Boys you are all made of Star stuff!! Love you all and don’t let the dancing stop! Also, so happy and thankful for each and every KKR fan and I hope all around the world youngsters learn that Tough times don’t last….Finally Tough and Happy teams do! Korbo…Lorbo…Jeetbo….Always.
See u all at the stadia in 2025.

All these years, Bangalore has behaved like a typical Bangalorean. Friendly, naive and nice. But, nice things never happen to nice guys.
When the modern working class complained, "Argh. It's 23 deg. So damn hot and uncomfortable to sit in this cubicle while writing code to help my client in the States cut down on his Carbon footprint", Bangalore took it to heart. And so he allowed people to build massive tech parks on its lakes with centrally air conditioned buildings only to make sure the temperature could always be 22.5 degrees inside the building. Because hey, we all know how painful it is to be subjected to 23 deg.
When the politician complained, "Look at Bihar, UP. There's no way we can make money like that in this annoying place", Bangalore felt bad for him. So Bangalore gave him all of its green cover at throwaway prices so he could throw it away at exorbitant prices to the real estate mafia, who then sold it at 100x exorbitant prices to, well, Bangaloreans.
When tech moguls complained "Terrible infrastructure. My company's productivity is going down. The 5 lac people I've brought in from other states to make me richer, aren't able to reach my slog-hole on time. Is this what you call hospitality, Bangalore?" Bangalore panicked. "Did I do something wrong? This must be really my fault." So Bangalore gave away trees and his peace-of-mind, began upgrading by constructing flyovers, broadening roads, more flyovers while inconveniencing locals as it jeopardised traffic for a few years. But Bangalore was happy taking the blame as long as tech moguls could sleep peacefully at night while their coders reached office on time in the mornings.
When Bangaloreans cribbed "I'm working 18 hours a day trying, I have no place to chill", Bangalore felt their pain. So Bangalore gave away a few more of its trees and lakes and modesty for malls and McDonald's. (Though we've remained good friends, Bangalore and I, I let him know he pushed it too far with McDonald's. More Corner Houses could've been a better plan, though.)
When Bangaloreans cribbed "Man. I'm so stressed making a ton of money at work, but I can't even party the night out beyond 11.30," Bangalore listened. And then replied, "Shut the f**k up."
Come on, even nice guys lose it sometimes.
Now when Bangaloreans are cribbing, "Man, this city is going to be unlivable in the next 5 years", Bangalore is weeping. Not because he's upset with people treating him like shit. He's upset with Himself. He's wondering if he didn't do enough. If he didn't sacrifice enough lakes. Didn't uproot enough trees. He feels like he has let others down. He feels he is to be blamed. Because nice guys are like that. Nice guys don't always finish last, sometimes they are just finished.

And no, good homemade food doesn’t cut it! Our schools suck at educating, but we’re the unhealthiest of generations to ever exist thanks to capitalism.
Can somebody please bring @drink_AG1 to #india ? It’s 2024 and I can’t have multiple things to order and consume everyday!
I swear I’d bring it myself if I had the capital. The Indian #neutraceutical industry is really poor for someone exporting drugs to the world at scale!
