Om shanti! May she attain sadgati.

Worst part of any of these icons leaving us is the void it creates in industry.

And then Zee Kannada milking non stop TRP for 8 straight weeks with Anushree crying and saying I am unable to digest this news.

In 2001, Lata Mangeshkar is awarded the Bharat Ratna. Seven years later, P. Susheela amma, the foundational blueprint, melody Queen of South India is given a mere Padma Bhushan. Twelve years later, S. Janaki, a vocal powerhouse of unmatched emotional range and nightingale of South is offered the exact same consolation prize, which she rightfully rejects.

The logic of National recognition in India is broken, and the timeline proves it. It takes decades of unparalleled, multi-lingual brilliance from Southern icons to even register as a footnote in New Delhi.

This isn't just about music. It is the structural reality of the country. From the revenue formulas that tax the South to subsidize the North, to the gatekept corridors of the Union Cabinet, the highest judiciary, and central contracts, the pattern is unyielding. The South is expected to perform like a powerhouse, but is treated like a secondary territory.
In every single walk of life, the message remains the same: the South does the heavy lifting, but to India, it is just the bloody South. Let that sink in.

By demanding walkable footpaths one does not become an elitist or a privileged, with disdain for the poor.

Footpaths are for all. In fact, it’s the poor and the middle-class that use them regularly, and, are apparently bearing the brunt due to the congestion caused by encroachment.

One of the most enjoyable aspects of my visits to Malleswaram used to be shopping with street vendors.
Now I have no incentive to go to Malleswaram.
These streets look so heartbreakingly empty.
Malleswaram has lost more than its street vendors.
It has lost a bit of its character.

Personal update: My time in Bengaluru has come to an abrupt end.

After having lived in the city for more than 10 years, I have relocated to my Tier 3 hometown in Tripura (Northeast India) for the foreseeable future.

When I first came here to study at the age of 16 in 2012, I was amazed by the people, culture and the enormous opportunities that the city had to offer.

There is no place like ನಮ್ಮ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು .

For millions of small-town men like me, Bengaluru gave hope and the possibility to dream big and extraordinary.

It provided a sneak peek into a world that did not exist for us.

I have never complained about minor inconveniences that I experienced in this city because Bengaluru was/is/will be 100x better than where I came from.

The vibe and weather of this city are unmatched.

Places like JP Nagar, Jaynagar, and Banshankari will forever be in my memories now. I will miss my favourite Masala Dosa and Chicken Boneless Meghna Biriyani, of course.

Lastly, I am eternally grateful to the locals (Kannadigas) who have always been kind, warm and welcoming to me.

Namma Bengaluru forever ♥️

How babus harm Indian Engineers:
I ran a US based startup. My engineering team was in India. Not in Bangalore or Delhi, but scattered across small towns and villages around UP/Bihar/Assam.
They were some of the best engineers I have worked with anywhere. The only thing they lacked was the ability to speak English like someone who went to a Delhi private school. That one accident of birth kept them off the rosters of every shiny startup.
I turned that into an advantage. I go find them. And I pay them exactly what an English-speaking engineer in Bangalore would get, without making them move. Same code, same salary. English fluency was never the skill I was hiring for.
Now I wanted to give them what my US team members had: ownership. A real piece of what they were building. For a young dude from a village in Gonda or Chapra, that can be generational, life-changing money when we exit.
But I could’t.
The moment an Indian employee exercise their options (convert them to shares), without selling anything they get taxed on the paper gain as salary (I have heard it could be as high as 42%). For a private company, no buyer, no liquidity, no cash. But they get slapped with a tax bill, sometimes larger than their salary, on money they haven't earned.
So, if I gave them equity, the choice I wd have forced on those engineers was: pay lakhs out of pocket for shares they can't sell, or give up the equity.
In the US employees pay nothing until they sell, and if they hold long enough, they may pay almost nothing at all (federal).
I have heard that in India , there is a "deferral" now. But if my info is correct, it covers ~2% of startups. Like most other startups, mine wont qualify.
The fix is one line: tax the shares when they are sold, not when they are bought. Every developed country does it. India could do it tomorrow but it does not.
Why?
Due to babus (not Nirmala S).

It's painful to watch the fielding in this IPL. Today Yash Raj dropped KL when he was on zero. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi too misfielded. The young boy hasn't taken a catch this season. While playing for India he needs to be sharper on the field. It is the duty of coaches to teach youngsters fielding skills. On their part, the boys should enjoy fielding and take pride in it.

Co-commentator: So nice of rickelton to help krunal there. Time and again.

Badrinath: instead of helping, he should just let him die there so that rcb loses.

Co-commentator: completely shocked.

Toxicity against RCB has gone too far. It would be really disrespectful to Krunal if this guy gets to sit in commentary box for even one more game 🙏

[` @worshipVK]

This is Subramaniam Badrinath
- He's an ex csk player
- Hates rcb and Kohli to the core

Today when Krunal was struggling with pain, he said "just let him die there" in tamil commentary. Later on he covered up that statement by saying he was just joking as he wants rcb to lose.

Is this guy really normal? Star Sports should kick him out of commentary and no ex-cricketer should ever associate with him again 🙏

@YashViratstan @RCBTweets Since Romario isnt even getting a chance to bat:

1.Salt ✈️
2. Virat
3. DDP/Suyash
4. Rajat
5. Bethel ✈️
6. Tim David ✈️
7. Venkatesh Iyer
8. Jitesh
9. Krunal
10. Hazlewood ✈️
11. Bhuvi

This gives a massive depth both in batting and bowling

Djokovic of the cricket?!

[Sai @akakrcb6]

Sai Sudharsan as neutral, If you sit and watch him play, you feel like stopping watching the match even if he scores 150+ at strk consistently. If he is playing against your favorite team, you feel like throwing the remote at the TV. The only way you enjoy this guy is when he plays for your team.

[Adarsha @death_bird_]

@AbhijitVaidya Great work! See if you can make widgets for ios and android. That where the maximum usage is.

[Adarsha @death_bird_]

I bet he cant do this against ONE team.
