Movie Review: We Are Family

September 2, 2010 · 10 Comments

You expect a good outing when you have Karan Johar leading a movie with stars like Kajol, Kareena & and Arjun Rampal.

Product Review: Fastrack Sports Watch-9291SL02

July 30, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Six months is a good time to understand and appreciate the value that a product has on offer. Its been six months that I have been sporting this watch from Fastrack.

As you can see from the pic attached, the watch has a big dial and carries quite a nice mix of colors in the background of the dial. Although classified under the Sport category (primarily because of Fastrack’s Positioning), I don’t think its a sports watch by any stretch of imagination. While you cannot wear...
