Dear @Suhelseth, if the Oxford English Dictionary is my ‘sole mate,’ then I suppose I walk in well-defined shoes. Better that than barefoot in banality! So I'm guilty as charged. And if you meant the OED is my 'sole' mate, I must say being wedded to the dictionary beats being shackled to clichés. At least my ‘sole mate’ knows the difference between ‘disinterested’ and ‘uninterested'....
My film with a Pakistani actor was shot before the Pahalgam attack.
But they're playing cricket with Pakistan after the Pahalgam attack.
Punjabis and Sikhs can never go against the nation.

Right. Freeze your eggs. Decide if you want to marry a homosapien like this at all.
Marriage is NOT the be all end all and absolutely worthless, traumatising and horrifying if it is the wrong partner. This is true for all / any gender.
SUMMARY OF H-1B EXECUTIVE ORDER
- ENTRY BAN: No H-1B visa holder may enter the United States beginning Sunday September 21st, including current visa holders, unles they pay $100K to enter.
- VISA FEE: New H-1B and H-1B extensions must pay 100K to be processed and 100K per year every year thereafter to maintain them.
This will effectively end the H-1B program completely. No one, even the highest paid at 500K will be paying an extra 100K a year to the government.
It will destroy the health care, higher education, and technology sectors as we know them if this isn't struck down in court.
If you thought H1B was big, HIRE is coming.
The US Senate has proposed the Halting International Relocation of Employment (HIRE) Act, designed to make outsourcing less attractive for American companies.
If passed, and Trump may, starting Dec 31, 2025, US firms that shift workforce overseas could face steep tax penalties of upto 25% excise tax.
And who will it affect the most? India’s IT & ITeS sector, much of it driven by US outsourcing demand. HIRE aims to reshape the economics of global software delivery itself.
H1B controlled talent inflow and HIRE controls job outflow.
This could be one of the most consequential policy shifts for global tech services in decades.
And what is Modi’s response or strategy? Absolutely nothing!
I have a child who wakes up in the middle of his sleep, eyes closed, sits up and *bam* falls flat on my face and snores away to glory 😒
I'm living all those Instagram reel boy mom moments and it's getting scary now 🫣
If you are going to sri lanka,you should hire kanishka. During my Uber days in Sri Lanka, I had an opportunity to meet him and then looked deeper into his ratings and was super impressed with his ratings. 4.9+ 5000+ trips back in 2018.
Last night I ended up reading my chat with someone I'd often meet/talk up until a few years ago and in a weird turn of events it soothed my aching self. I don't know what it healed or why I opened up the said person's chat but everything started making sense again after that 🥲
