  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.

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...

The Unsung Hero

THE UNSUNG HERO Another evening getting back from office as I am stuck in one of those absolutely reasonless traffic jams, I ponder over the madness that awaits me at home. Every TV ,well almost every TV in the country is dishing out the IPL mania these days and will continue to do so till sanity returns in about 4 weeks time.. Half way through the tournament I realize that this IPL has reinforced one interesting aspect of life .Irrespective of the stage in life ,or the format of the game in this case, the fundamentals prerequisite for success do not change     Since time immemorial the world has always favoured extraordinary talent over perseverance, flamboyance over persistence and sporadic brilliance over dependability. While only a fortunate   few are blessed with the former virtues , the majority of us lesser mortals have to make do with what we have and compensate with other attributes within our control in our endeavour to excel in whatever professions...
