SQB : Indian Sensex On New High

“The buzz in financial circles a few month ago was that every man and his dog could raise money and invest in India. Now the thinking is that the man is no longer required.”

Barzakh Review: Visually Stunning & Refreshingly A

Barzakh Review: Visually Stunning & Refreshingly Artistic Mystical

Barzakh means a place in-between. The stage between death and resurrection. The kingdom between paradise and hell. Barzakh series is stuck between perfection and promise!

Barzakh is an ambitious web series of love, longing and loss from across the border. Beautifully composed on a canvas, awesomely shot in beautiful locales and an outstanding ensemble cast with superlative performances - Barzakh is wonderfully designed.

A super wealth patriarch Jafar invites his estranged sons for his third marriage to his first love Mahtab. It is just that Mahtab is dead, and Jafar believes she will meet him on the other side. His two sons have a difficult relationship with him while the villagers demand access to atrium of his palatial ‘Land Of Nowhere’ house.

Strained family ties, postpartum depression, challenges of caregiving, parenting issues, mental health, toxic patriarchy - all topics are showcased by rich characters. All this in the backdrop of red-draped fairies, pink souls with baggage, special girl and other supernatural themes.

Loved the Gibran Rumi type quotes, breathtaking Hunza valley, carefully crafted visuals and metaphor rich depictions. And of course, the superlative acting of the terrific trio of Fawad Khan, Sanam Saeed and Salman Shahid! The Zindagi Gulzar Hai pair is adorable.

Yet, inspite of all its positives, it fails to make an impact and achieve its true potential - perhaps it is trying to achieve too much.

Barzakh is intelligent, brave, unique and highly creative. It grows on you and will stay with you - not every series can claim that!

Watch it with loads of patience!

Note: Out friends in Pakistan are not able to watch the series as it has been banned in the country.

Egypt is one of the oldest, most powerful and long

Egypt is one of the oldest, most powerful and long-lasting civilisations!

Egypt was one of the top travel bucket list items. Thanks to our history teachers and Nat Geo, Egypt including its Pyramids, Mummies, Nile, and Pharaoh Tutankhamun treasures have always featured high on the priority list.

First things first - Let’s start with the Pyramids!

Love at first sight! One of the original seven wonders of the world and the only surviving one today - these are nothing but architectural and engineering marvels. Bereft of any technological tools, modern excavators, IOT sensors, mapping techniques and data visualisations, Egyptians used ingenious ways to build the mighty pyramids. The pyramids have withstood the test of times - including being the tallest structure for almost 4000 years. WOW! Just WOW!

Watch out for the further details and experiences from the Egypt Exploration in the travelogue - Egypt : Enchanting & Exhilarating Eternal Emotion!

An amazing addition to the culinary landscape of A

An amazing addition to the culinary landscape of Ahmedabad

Ahmedabad is a foodie’s paradise with a vibrant mix of traditional and chic cuisine! The city’s artistic chef and entrepreneur community keeps innovating and indulging in the never ending apetite for unique food experiences.

The latest addition is Peppers S G Road - the very popular and loved restaurant of Anand Heena Thakkar - the man behind Kaffa & Legends of Punjab! He and Karan Upadhyay bring the restaurant to the Sindhu Bhavan - the lively food district of Ahmedabad.

I had the great opportunity to explore the classic and novel offerings of Peppers:
- The outstanding Broccoli Cheddar Soup which is served in the bread bowl
- The Hot Veg Tempura Sushi
- The Special Veg Tempura Sushi
- The Fire Cracker Dim Sum lived upto its name - Indeed a cracker!
- Paneer Tikka / Kofta / Dhabe Wali Dal / Garlic Naan - Trust Peppers for lip smacking Punju food

While I always have a bias for good food and humane hospitality, the experience was extra sweet due to the dessert duo Reitu & Sanjay
