Thank you Chennai



I have good news to share. Well its bit old news...I moved to Pune again almost a month before. I spent almost three years in Chennai.  I love Chennai, but due to some personal and family reasons I took decision to shift to Pune. I was able to find my next assignment in Pune. While leaving Chennai, I was filled with mixed emotions of happiness and sadness and many more memories. I was happy because I was going back to my home state and nearer to family and friends. Sad because I would be missing the Chennai and my colleagues and friends. One month after coming back to Pune, I still miss many things from Chennai. First and foremost is the kind and sincere people of Chennai. Second my favourite madras coffee. But, though I have come to Pune, I have not closed the doors of Chennai for me. I am open to return to Chennai, anytime in future if needed.
While leaving I will like to mention few things about the Chennai. First Chennai is growing city and there are several opportunities specifically in auto and IT sector. However, due to difficult weather conditions many people don’t wish to come and work there. So supply demand matrix is not balanced & hence pay scale is better. Reality estate is growing at better pace in Chennai as compared to other part of India. If you are planning for investment, it is the time to look at Chennai. People in Chennai are much simple and serious about the work they do. I hope this culture will continue in Chennai. I appreciate the way Tamil people have preserved the culture. I have seen some cosmopolitan cities which have lost their original culture. I wish to see Chennai with its originality when I will visit there next time. However, Chennai needs some improvements as well. It needs to go more clean and neat. It needs to have even better infrastructure. It should have better connectivity to other parts of country. I am very much positive about the progress of this city in coming days. I will always cherish the moments I have spent in Chennai in my heart. I won’t say I have all good experience in Chennai, but whatever it was, I have grown in Chennai. Thank you Chennai. See you again.
I started this blog to share my experiences in life, no matter where I stay. I will continue to write under the same blog. It will be misnomer but it’s ok. This blog is not just my hobby or place to write my experience or thoughts but also it serves as my life’s log book. It is very much fun to see how life progress with time. I will continue to share my experience hence forth. See you soon with some new experience.

Reality of Real Estate in India

Now days I do not happen to read news paper daily. Sometimes on weekends I get chance to read news papers. But, one thing I have noticed that first page or cover page, a page above front page which is full of property advertisement is reaching each home everyday. They have 1 BHK, 2BHK, 3BHK flats, row houses, farm houses, farm lands, and NA plots advertisement. Now days customers have hundreds of options. They have various budgets from so called cheap flats to luxurious flats with high budgets. They provide so many amenities. It’s a matter of research how many amenities are really needed and are used. They are present just as status symbols. People are paying so much money extra for these unused facilities.  I want to put my views here about whole real estate industry in India. Home is COSTLY (?) In India all businesses, industries, jobs are concentrated to few particular cities. I feel this is done deliberately to force people to stay, gather at one place. It is wel...

Holika Dhahan

There is March already, we have some festival coming in next few days. Today here at Maharastra we celebrate a festival "Holika". And tomorrow it is Festival of Holi (Festival of colors). Although Holi is becoming very popular festival internationally and many people visit India just to enjoy holi, this post is not about Holi but its about Holika. Note the difference in the name. I feel that all Indian festivals are designed so that people in society should gather and mix up with each other.  Good news is its holiday tomorrow and its a long weekend. After long time I will be celebrating Holika. It is very interesting festival. Like all other Hindu festivals, it is about victory of good over bad. This time it is about victory of good within over the evil within us. On internet there are many stories how Holika started and so I will not discuss it here. Indians believe that fire is pure. It burns evil and what remains is pure. Anything that survives fire is pure. W...

Walkathon

Recently there was a two month long event happened in my workplace. Two month is too big for an event but it was great. It was a competition of walking or Walkathon. So?  what is great about walkathon?  It's common now a days and happens everywhere. Well, but it happened in my company, it was two months long and it was executed with help of digital technology (supporting Digital India Drive 😀) and most importantly I participated in it 😋 and no...I did not win :( but I participated and walked 5.5 Lacs steps, around 335 Kilometers. This may not be accurate, but even with 10% error, it will be 300 Kms. Wow. Winners completed around 15 Lacs steps and 900 Kms. It was organized by my company in cooperation with another fitness club. We used google fit for measuring steps. And one another application for teams formation, and statistics. Here is it how it happened... All the employees of the company were divided in 12 groups, one Capton was selected for each team. And competiti...
