  1. With your permission allow me to express a candid opinion... and this one come straight from an unabashed fan and humble wellwisher:

    This one is almost straight out of a marketing manual and different from your earlier blogs which were laced with humour, emotion and an endearing style which you have proprieted. Would rather appreciate reading Ganpasrants where you stick to more slice of life contemporary happenings:)

    1. Thanks Ram for your views. You are right, I had written this article for a Sales training academy blog. Thought that I could post it here as well. I realize now that it sticks out like a sore thumb.

Time to let go.

Back in the early 90’s, I was in my late 20’s, employed,   when my parents first broached the subject of marriage to me, I was shocked and brushed it aside. I was fine and was scared that marriage would alter my life drastically in some way. Slowly this became the topic of every other discussion at home. Every time my parents came back after attending a wedding the pressure would build up and eventually in 1993, I did get married.     If you belong to a middle-class south Indian family, then you would have in all probability gone through an experience similar to what I have just described. While life did change after matrimony, I did manage to retain most of my bachelor life style, primarily because my wife was doing her MD and was away from home and I had moved to a different continent. As the years passed the life I led, barely changed until one fine day when my daughter was born. I remember seeing her in my wife’s arms and that is when it struck me like a ...

Repair --- don't replace

Appa !!!! for God’s sake please don’t be soo stingy!! Just throw that cover off and get a new one on line. It hardly costs you 300 bucks. My daughter screamed across the room at me, as she saw me struggling to repair my smart phone’s flip cover. There was nothing too wrong with the cover of my smart phone. It was a flip cover and the flip cover had gotten unfastened from the silicon base partially. All that was needed was   Rs 5 worth of Fevikwik and some dexterity and Lo the flip cover was restored to its former glory. That, the former glory itself was a bit tattered is a different matter altogether. However, that’s a different story for another day. Similar scenes play out in my house almost every other day. The antagonist is always me while the person expressing deep anguish could be my daughter, or my wife or my mother, or could be any possible combination of the three afore mentioned characters. Mr Scrooge, Mr Miser, I have been frequently addressed as such and...

Morose ponderings on a rainy day

,   It was a Sunday morning as different as it can ever be. I was awoken by the tragic news over the telephone, of the passing away of one of my old friends who I was given to understand had given up his long struggle with cancer. He had obviously not wanted to mention this to me when we had spoken a few weeks back. Not that we were very close, but that was typical of the person he was, self-effacing and modest. However, he was the type of person who always took the effort to make a call once in a while when he was in town just to enquire about my well being and catch up on old times and how our friends were doing. Something far more than most of us, including yours truly does. He was an affable guy and always had something good to say about everyone. We met a few days later, on a rather gloomy rainy afternoon, at an informal sort of prayer meet for him. As per the norm, a few of those who knew him well, spoke about him. Post the ceremony, a few of us gathered together and in...
