@AlanMamedi Alan is CEO of Truecaller and his company tells you who is the caller. And here He doesn't know anything about the person He is meeting... Can't be funnier than this.

I went for an Hair Cut at Great Clips chain of Salons which has roughly 4,500 locations across the United States and Canada. That makes it the largest hair salon brand in the world. It's 100% Franchisee operations employ over 40,000 professionals. I also noticed almost all of their hair stylists are Women.
One unique thing about Americans is they think of massive scale. Like India is 5 time the Size of Great Clips footprint but the largest Indian Chain is Chennai based Naturals Salon & Spa, with close to 1000 outlets which is roughly one fifth number of Great Clips.

चाणक्य नीति (अध्याय 3, श्लोक 11) में बताया गया है कि किन परिस्थितियों या व्यक्तियों के सामने नहीं पड़ना चाहिए:
अग्निरापः स्त्रियो मूर्खाः सर्पा राजकुलानि च।
नित्यं यत्नेन सेव्यानि सद्यः प्राणहराणि षट्॥

अर्थात, आग, जल, मूर्ख व्यक्ति, साँप, और राजकुल (सत्ताधारी/राजा)—इनके साथ कभी भी लापरवाही या सीधा टकराव (आँख से आँख मिलाकर चुनौती देना) नहीं करना चाहिए! ये छह चीज़ें तुरंत प्राण हरने या भारी संकट में डालने वाली होती हैं!

मोदी जी तो नीतिनुसार सावधानी बरत रहे हैं, राजमाता इसे उनकी कमजोरी मान बैठीं!

सोनिया गांधी की हाल ही में आयी संस्मरण पुस्तक, "बिलॉन्गिंग: अ जर्नी ऑफ़ लव" की छपी हुई कीमत ₹1,299 है!
• फिजिकल बुकस्टोर इसे ₹1,039 (20% छूट) में बेच रहे हैं।
• अमेज़न पर ₹999 (30% छूट) की मिल रही है!
• ब्लिंकइट पर ₹849 (35% छूट) में मिल रही है!

सोनिया गांधी हो और घपला ना हो, ये हो ही नहीं सकता!

@Pawankhera भाई तुम दिवाली को "खुशियों की ईद" कह लो!

गुड फ्राइडे को "दुख का मोहर्रम" कह लो!

पर ईद के साथ छेड़छाड़ मत करना, एपीजमेंट के चक्कर में सर तन से जुदा मत करवा लेना!

@nvidia board launched an investigation whether co-founder and CEO @JensenHuang was the target of a foreign intelligence operation, following reports by U.S. intelligence that a business executive with whom Huang had an extramarital affair was an intelligence asset passing information to Beijing. Huang admitted the infidelity.
Nvidia Shares plunged as much as 7.5% to 8.8% & the drop wiped out $335 billion to $349 billion in market capitalization.

Now an @elonmusk 2025 tweet is being circulated, makes sense of affairs at Nvidia. My fear is people will stop giving 10/10 rating to their GFs.

Yesterday I posted about Ace designer Sabyasachi's post with 4 Indian women wearing elegant Sarees but looking, sad, depressed and dejected.

Today I saw this Apple Diwali TVC featuring Juhi Chawla in her own 1994 movie Gentleman song "Roop suhana lagta hai". All women look absolutely stunning and adorable doing classical Indian dance moves in beautiful Sarees. They not only did complete justice to a dress as beautiful as Saree but also to Indian Dance from, Indian beats and festivity.

This is the contrast, what an Indian dress designer failed to do an American tech company did so beautifully. Enjoy.

2005, I was working in a TATA Company and in the Annual Group Leadership Conference, addressed by Sh. Ratan Tata someone asked Why TATA is investing heavily in Ginger Hotels? Ratan Tata said, India has huge Tourism & business travel potential and not even few decimal points of it is explored. He said the biggest problem is "The Missing Middle" You can stay in a Taj or Maurya or Ashoka at the top and innumerous guest houses or Dharmshals at the lower end but nothing in between. With Ginger We are trying to fill that Void. He further said We won't position it as "Smart Basics" but "Lean Luxury". He also said may be 50 Ginger Hotels won't make as much money as one Taj Hotel but then every business is not just business.

"The Crispy Green" is a freeze-dried fruit snack brand in the US. They make 100% pure freeze-dried fruit with no added sugar, preservatives, or artificial ingredients. They offer flavours like Apple, banana, mango, pear, pineapple, strawberry... I checked their 'All Mango' flavour and it's manufactured in China
Now India produces over 45% of the mangoes in the World and that too of Top quality.
This is an Area where India has clear advantages, Why that's not being utilized. 2.54 Ounce packed costs 11 dollars that is roughly $153 per Kilo or Rs.14,400 Per kg. Look at the value add and farmer's income. I am sure soon Indian Food brands will identify this huge opportunity.

This time I followed the US midterm elections very closely. VP JD Vance said, We lost because of War. Most analyst said not war but impact of war and that is high Inflation.Honestly never thought inflation will be that big an issue for Americans.
I checked the fuel prices, in 1.83 years of Trump presidency, Petrol prices grew by 36% & Diesel prices 74% at a CAGR of 18% & 35%.
Now Modi Virodhi expect, after Trump him to go and I did similar study for India. In 12.45 years of Modi PMship, Petrol prices grew by 43% & Diesel prices 68% at CAGR of 2.91% & 4.24% respectably

Preciously the reason We don't see any Anti-Incombancy in India.

@deepigoyal posted about the Blinkit ambulance service, which was running free of cost but People started using it for routine check-ups. Now he said that they'll charge ₹2,500 for such cases & ₹0 for genuine emergency cases.

We Indians never appreciate the motive and purpose behind Free Services and started using it as an entitlement. Be it Blinkit Ambulance, Wheel chair or even Golf cart at the Airport. Healthy people take it as privilege and many times they aren't available for the genuinely sick people. And once you start giving something free, it becomes a right and you can't even withdraw.

ईरान ने होर्मुज जलडमरूमध्य में सिर्फ 4 देशों भारत, चीन, इराक और कतर के जहाजों को गुजरने की इजाजत दी है! ईरान के इस फैसले को पाकिस्तान अपनी बेइज्जती की तरह देख रहा है! उसका कहना है भारत का रुख इजरायल की तरफ रहा है, इसके बावजूद ईरान उनको राहत दे रहा है! और पाकिस्तान पर सख्त है, जिससे वह बॉर्डर साझा करता है और जिसकी लीडरशिप ने मध्यस्थता के लिए तमाम कोशिशें की हैं!

अब पाकिस्तान को कौन समझाए की 'मध्यस्थता' और 'तू कौन मैं खामख्वाह' में फर्क होता है!
