@ksinamdar I am saying this in all seriousness. If I am late in dusting my furniture and do it after 5/6 days, I experience the same smell. I live in Baner. I am NOT joking neither am I being sarcastic.

In Marathi it is called ‘Mridgandha’. Now you have same information in 3 languages. Now, some new useless information for the good folks on X. In rural Maharashtra, people call the first rains ‘Vāsāchā Pāus’, because the earth gives out a fragrance. Pu.La. Deshpande famously said that if that fragrance could be packed in a small bottle he would never use any other perfume. Poet Ashok Bagwe wrote a song on this ‘Vāsāchā Pāus’ which I composed music for. Here it is - youtu.be/RNfGJ4UB9Jw?si…

This was told to me by a 65yo gardener. The smell of rain has a name and it’s called “saundhi khushboo” in Hindi. And “petrichor” in English. It comes from oils released by plants and a compound made by soil bacteria. When rain hits dry ground, it spreads into the air and that’s what you’re actually smelling. Completely useless in daily life. But once you know it, you’ll notice it every single time it rains.

In India, since ancient times, the main purpose of rangoli has been to feed birds and small insects. It is therefore drawn using rice powder & non-chemical edible colours. A request to all of you, please place a bowl of water nearby or on the terrace for birds during this summer.

Mumbai drinks 4 Crore cups of tea every day with one teaspoon of Sugar. Let's cut Sugar to half. It will save about 90 Metric tonnes Sugar daily. Over a year, this can reduce Sugarcane production. It can save water to sustain over 5 lakh houses in Marathwada. Are you ready?

Sachin Tendulkar vs Glenn McGrath: 6, 4, 4, 4 🔥 And some “½ stat experts” still cry that Sachin struggled against McGrath 🤡 No proper ball-by-ball data existed before 2002 but that won’t stop agenda peddlers from manufacturing narratives. Even @grok will agree on this

तमाम मराठ्यांनी मुंबई सारख्या शहरात येऊन किमान एक वडापावची गाडी टाकावी. दिवसाला १०-१५ हजारांचा धंदा. फिरता वडापाव टाकला तर ४०-४५ हजार दिवसाला. मेहनत करावी लागेल, या मराठ्यांनो शहरात घुसा. #Mumbaai

Simons@Simon_Ingari·
A boss was conducting an interview over Zoom when the candidate’s Wi-Fi connection became unstable. Clearly irritated, the boss said, “This is not acceptable. The interview is over,” and ended the call. Later, the candidate sent an email, politely requesting another chance, but the boss ignored it. A few days later, the boss was in an important meeting when his own Wi-Fi stopped working. The client immediately ended the call and followed up with an email saying, “You’ve lost your chance. We don’t work with unprofessional people.” The boss felt upset and thought, I’m not unprofessional—it was just the internet. At that exact moment, he remembered the candidate. He quickly opened his inbox and replied, asking if 7:00 p.m. that evening would work for a second interview. The candidate agreed, and the boss felt relieved. Always be empathetic towards others. Don’t wait for Karma to teach you Has Karma ever taught you a lesson like this?

The competitor of the Zomato and Swiggy are the local restaurants who are starting free home delivery service. Benefit is they save straight 30% commission that is paid to Zomato and Swiggy. Even if they hire 2 people for food delivery to customer, their salary would be Rs 25,000 and total expense would be Rs 50k/month. These will be full time guy who will just deliver in the nearby areas upto 3km. Assuming per order value is Rs 1,000, restaurant give Rs 300 to these aggregators. Even if there are 10 orders for delivery/day, in total monthly sales will be Rs 3 Lakhs. Zomato/Swiggy takes Rs 90k and these guys will take only Rs 50k/month. Smartly few restaurants are giving their pamphlets with their menu and contact number for direct delivery.

This is not new. But they fail to reach the customers’ palms where all the action is. A restaurant not on Zomato or Swiggy is looked down upon by those with disposable income. Ain’t nobody got time to save those flyers in a cupboard and refer to them while ordering. The menu changes, prices change, management changes. This is like saying some smart people are using paper maps instead of google maps.

राजकारणाच्या गर्दीतही स्वच्छतेचा श्वास देणारे नाव - पृथ्वीराज चव्हाण आज बाबांचा जन्मदिन आणि त्यांची ही २०१४ ची जाहिरात आठवली सत्तेच्या गदारोळातही शांतपणे विकासाची पायाभरणी करणारे, अटल सेतूसारख्या स्वप्नांना दिशा देणारे, मेट्रोच्या रुळांवर आधुनिक महाराष्ट्र धावू लागेल याची खात्री देणारे… ना घोषणांचा गाजावाजा, ना दिखाव्याची राजकारणं, फक्त काम, अभ्यास आणि प्रामाणिकपणाची एक वेगळीच ओळख. आज जेव्हा राजकारण अधिक आवाजात आणि कमी आशयात हरवत चाललं आहे, तेव्हा अशा संयमी आणि तत्त्वनिष्ठ नेतृत्वाची किंमत अधिक जाणवते. महाराष्ट्राचे माजी मुख्यमंत्री पृथ्वीराज चव्हाण साहेब यांना ७९ व्या वाढदिवसाच्या मनःपूर्वक शुभेच्छा! 🎂 @prithvrj

This post is for Indian parents. And for future Indian parents. Stop building houses for your son and daughter. You are solving the wrong problem. Stop spending your entire life savings building a ‘family home’ thinking your children will return and live there one day. It sounds emotional. But the reality is very different. I realized this when I recently visited my Nana ji’s house. That house was built with decades of savings. A lot of sacrifices. The intention was simple - Build a home for the next generation. Just like most Indian families do. They studied well. Built careers. Moved to bigger cities. One even moved to the US. Life upgraded for them. Opportunities pulled them elsewhere. And slowly the house that once held dreams now sits quietly with no one to light a lamp in the evening. Locked. Almost abandoned. Indian parents are solving the wrong problem. You want your son and daughter to grow, earn more, live bigger. But at the same time you expect them to live in the same house you built 30 years ago. That expectation is a contradiction. If your son or daughter earns 10x more than you, their lifestyle will also change. Their city may change. Their home will change. Their world will change. They are not going to live in the same house. Every 15-20 years homes become outdated and people move to new spaces that fit their life. So the house built with your entire life savings becomes irrelevant. Invest in their education. Invest in their freedom. Keep your money liquid. Use it to improve your own life. But please stop sacrificing your entire life to build a house for them.
