Startups kee Duniya

Recently, I increased my activity on LinkedIn and discovered a wealth of useful information by following the right pages. I've always been a fan of general knowledge, but currently focusing more on startup-related information, which is abundant here.


One post highlighted that the founders of Snapdeal are achieving returns of 157x in the Shadowfax IPO. This prompted me to consider whether this is the best ROI from recent Indian IPOs. After some research, found that there are even bigger returns. Here are the top 5 before Shadowfax, first one at 344x:

The Warmth of Sun

There is possibly a moment in everyone’s life when we realize that everything on this earth, whatever lived and breathed and smiled, managed to do this because there is someone who is scorching and glowing, encompassing all the chaos within, and giving away all that it can, in the form of eternal flow of energy. The present and future lives follow the same script. This is our Sun, so grand and so far, yet caring kindly and giving generously. For me, that moment is whenever I experience the power of fire. It is so overwhelming even from a distance that when I stand to think about it, my heart fills with cries for everyone who unfortunately had to experience it in life. And then thoughts wander towards real fire lord, our Sun, just to think about the turmoil of atoms and heat and the vast scale of all of it and containing that all since billions of years and will continue to do so for billions more and with all that, managing to create and sustain happiness millions of kilometers away, i...

Happy Diwali!!

Ushering the righteous path with hues of sapience to a perturbed soul is what Diwali brings forth even to most wayward mind. Try showing your lantern to get others' way out of murk and in turn feel an obscure but strong force guiding you upright and believe me it's a beacon illuminating brightly in ur deep inner recesses assimilating oil only from such heart-led deeds. Needless to say, this blog entry is just to mark my resurgence and not a part of story series. I have no idea what kept me away for so long but experiences, I had of late, were conspicuously different though very enriching. Emotions n experiences are like herbs n spices and life is much more fun when it regales a gamut of spices to our gustatory sensations n wat we need to learn only is to distinuish n relish them all. Ahhhh I feel great now, it's gud to try, it's better to get apprised of striking realities and it's best to defend when u find ur feet tottering on lower grounds. Though I never liked ...

Eternal Love

This is for my love for Sho which is eternal. My gratitude to you will never end and I feel so joyful and content when I am with you. May God bless you and you be always happy and healthy. A  stranger walks  into my life unhindered, stokes fire in mind n leaves it bewildered, dances on my heart-beats so immaculately, that it makes me craving to be her kindred. She shows up when there is none, talks n talks n talks while I am mum, caresses every fiber of my eardrum, and purges my worries in a pool of fun. I look at sky and envisage her face, twinkling stars fading against her winking eyes, full moon lying himself just to feel glees, and infinite space reminding of her endless tries. Never before anyone cared for me so much, like a cool breeze and it's gentle touch, O' my lord if love is so special as such, then bless my life with her even in a HUTCH.

Chapter One - A shocking failure

Night beckoned and the desire to protest crumbled to pieces as her feet began to collapse under the enormous strain she had been enduring for hours. Her defence was conceived inexpugnable among the fraternity named Silent Sodality by it's father founder, venerable among people of all ages, with a solemn pledge to purge vitiated minds across the world. He was the man of words preternaturally skilled in wielding weapons along a mental force reckoned coercive by all. His motives were clear and just and he tied everyone becoming a part of this family with a set of rules, ambits and secrets using a oath which devours your strength in case of any breach of code and conduct. The vow was never broken and the world flourished with the bravery and wits of those noble souls giving every bit for the cause but never before it was subjected to such a strenuous test in the history. "You know you can't do it, why don't you give in? You are only lingering the inevitable." a grave...
