G.B. Shaw nailed it when he said in Man and Superman, there’s no love sincere than love of food.   A fit healthy body and a tasty tongue- that’s the best fashion statement for me.   Having said that, now its time to talk of diet. Vegetables are must on a diet.  Potatoes, wholemeal bread and handful of Sev (crispy noodle made of chickpea flour)  are my suggestions. Next comes exercise, and no matter what, take to brisk walking.  Find the street which sells the most appetizing street snacks.  Trust me it will encourage you to take  up walking.  The street food served in Mumbai are generally fresh, tasty and wallet friendly.  The most popular street-food in Mumbai is Vada Pav and then comes Pav bhaji.  But running on the parallel likes, is the famous Mumbai Masala Toast Sandwich.   This hot toasted-aromatic sandwhich is sold by many vendors near railway stations,  in front of schools, malls and offices in...

Ardent gamers and comic strip buff would surely know Metamorphosis as a theme. The process excites viewers and at times leaves them in awe. It’s that amazing moment when the protagonist or antagonist of the story goes through transformation so distinct it leaves one speechless. Over the years there have been many extreme transformations in many industries like healthcare, retail, media and entertainment. Whether you are a big movie fan, video game junkie or a TV binge watcher, new technologies have completely changed the way we engage, connect and communicate. Often in stories, character transformations are not limited to magical genre.

Digital Media is platform oriented.  Each UX has its own UI. Therefore the content and its drafts need to be crafted accordingly. I have some examples where I have experimented with my creativity and monitored, how it has received reactions, impressions on that particular web site. The very first is for BBC Story-works, APAC. Where English is a second language of communication. If we can make a format in pod-cast, this is how the dialogue will sound. If we just focus on a picture, which tells thousand words, then this will be the communication message. Post-It which makes the message important, a small-copy, which adds relevance. All in one slide. No need to swipe even. Also mobile-app-friendly. This is my article with a case-study on advertising and its usage. Which had over 250 impressions without using any paid media and marketing tools. Marrying a copy with a picture using a single-frame, gives more readibilty and access to reach more users....

Hopeful 2019

For the weird people- The misfits, poets, writers, mystics for they teach us to see the world through the different eyes. For the Richie-rich with great power comes great need to conceal your revenue stream. For pessimists, from optimists- I know things look bad now but soon they will look good by comparison. For All, the world is a crazy, beautiful, ugly complicated place and it keeps moving on from crisis to strangeness to beauty to weirdness to tragedy. The only semblance one might get is to Keep-moving-On...... So be hopeful for 2019, if it sucks, move on to 2020.
