As I stayed home, and went thru Yoga and Physiotherapy, with occasional Doc visits, I had lots of time for myself, to think of taking a call in my life. Many people who know me very well, kept saying, don’t disengage your brain, you will go mad. My creative instincts, and core philanthropic mind started coming to the fore. I was also advicing Rahul /Romit on their business strategies, as they were very good operationally, and ensured that their PnLs were far more healthier than their Dad’s days. So, their focus was growth, profits, cash flow, and implement them. I... View Article

As I dug deep into this journey of mine in Bhutan, so many things started emerging within me. But most importantly, seeing the clouds on the mountains everyday, gave me an innate clarity of where I am today, and an open door for the future. The open door is good enough, as I dig deeper into my present and deal with it, which I believe, I can now. The central theme of today, for me, with me,as me, is this concept of “I”.I have been thinking about it,for a while,but not really been able to convert whatever thoughts I had... View Article

Is surgery only a physical exercise? My molar teeth, four of them, have been giving me problems since a few weeks. The toothache at times is unbearable. I remember, when I went to Boston last year to attend HBS Reunion, I could not go to the most important meeting from my Hotel Four Seasons, as I was writhing in pain. So, suddenly when my Dentist said, ‘You need to extract it, I felt, why not?’ I have always been pretty naive in life. That is also my strength, in its own place. I did not realise what this extraction for... View Article

Ever since my sons, joined my business, its been over 10 years now,I have been confronting this phenomena of being Boss and Dad, to my sons, Rahul and Romit. Its been one of the toughest roles to play in my life, though it has also been a very proud feeling. I have no idea how others have done, but I must confess that, the Dad part of me, took a beating several times. Running a professional Organisation, like an open book, which I have myself professed so candidly to my people, and doing that with my sons around and my... View Article
