... I'll do these things :)
1. Write a book that goes on to become a best-seller.
2. Start a full-fledged NGO primarily (but not restricted to) working for under-privileged children.
3. Give a live performance by playing Tabla, preferably supporting a vocal artist [within that, preferably a Ghazal singer (within that, preferably Jagjit Singh or Hariharan!)] I am yet to learn how to handle Tabla though.
4. Give a talk to a gathering of thousands and thousands of people on love!
5. Be a RJ and host a show on radio.
6. Be a pre-paid cab driver, say for Meru, Easy Cabs..etc, for at least a day! Bizarre but true :)

Dear Restless,
How about this - You write a best seller on under privileged children. We have a big launch in Andheri Sports Complex & as a publicity stunt, you drive a Meru Taxi ferrying a few of the children to the event. There you can address a gathering of thousands and thousands of people & speak on love after which we can have a musical show with Hariharan/Jagjit Singh & you get to play the tabla too, which will add to the hype around the book launch. WOW!!! Imagine that. All your wishes granted in one stroke. Pure Genius.
Anyway, nice to have met you at the social function (engagement) on Sunday. You were looking quite fresh & seemed in quite a good mood despite what you have written earlier. Anyway, I am sure you got ribbed about any 'impendings' from your end too. Glad to see you are back. I too am one of the followers of your blog. KEEP IT COMING!!!
:) That is a great idea. Will have to manage the NGO and RJ separately :) Not fair to leave me guessing about who this is but!
Thanks all for writing in.. appreciate it.
I know it isn't fair. I am enjoying this intrigue very much, if I can call it that. Maybe we can remedy that in time. But as it is now, I have the distinct advantage of knowing you in 2 different levels while you don't. So on the 'fairness' part I can only say this - "BUDDY, LIFE AIN'T FAIR". he,he ,he :-)
A talk on love! sounds strange and interesting, and a cab driver thats, really surprising...
... rest all are good ones,
...but will you be able to play songs and ads on your show at radio?
It's a nice list...But 2 of the wishes is bothering me. I mean do you really intend to TALK ON LOVE.....it has got me thinking. Knowing a wee bit about you...I have my apprehensions. But I definetly would take the oppurtunity to hear you, any day. And cut that TABLA thing off the list. No point in risks. Public ire is difficult to contain.
Liked it ....I will give vocal and you play tabla ...it would b a stupendous grouping !!
