Re: New movies from OTT

Watched https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IC_814:_The_Kandahar_Hijack on Netflix and enjoyed it. Arvind swami was as charming as ever and the entire cast did a great job and last but not the least the dialogs were well written (had to stay it since one of my close relatives was part of the writing team...

Re: India Bashing

Very first thing I don't like in India are that most people are not considerate. They do as they wish and do not follow rules even when living in good gated communities and are well educated and earning decent money. They will park anywhere they want without considering that it's gonna block you. R...

Re: R2I and Dilemma

There is no failure. You move to find something better as obviously you are not content at your current situation. If a place where you move do not offer as per expectations than atleast you tried and you move on. But failure would be to live in regret of not trying. I like India much better after ...

Re: R2I and Dilemma

Re: Introduce yourself

I joined the new forum after waiting forever to recover r2iclubforum. We are still discussing/working with new owners but it is taking too much of time and I lost patience. We have a separate WA group with RRK, Boca and few admins from the new owner's company. I will keep pushing for status update ...

Re: To Bee or not to Bee; RBee's buzzes

Here's an unpopular opinion! I never felt "Indian" even while living in India since everyone else around was an Indian and feeling Indian had no special meaning and I was also very young! Feeling Indian or Italian or anything else is much more than penchant for food, rituals and sports si...
