| Introduction | I always wanted to write, sing, dance, paint, sketch, sculpt, live amid complete greenery, live a threadbare-simple life like that of the construction workers, and be happy for the simple fact that I could expect to live another day and no more. Instead, I am an IT professional, a web content writer, but I have no regrets...I am as happy as I can get. |
| Interests | Books, music, gadgets, musical instruments, fine art, research, writing of various kinds and genres, good food once in a while, work/shop/do something useful till I drop...many more things, but the single most important is being a good HUMAN BEING. Unfortunately, it is not easy. I just try. |
| Favorite movies | Guns of Navarone, Where Eagles Dare, The Bridge on River Kwai, Black Hawk Down, Indecent Proposal, Invictus, True Lies, ... and then many more I don't recall but love |
