This collection of short stories spans decades, starting with Behind the Scenes, written nearly fifty years ago during my college days. Though my career in business took priority, writing remained a fulfilling outlet. The stories cover a wide range of subjects, developed spontaneously over the years, with some unfinished pieces completed recently. While a few are autobiographical, most are purely fictional. After retiring, I revisited my manuscripts and realized I had enough material for a book. Thanks to the guidance of Indu Ramchandani and her son Gautam, this collection has come to fruition.

Vote for None: I suppose it was our youth, which closed our eyes to the writing on the wall and let us be beguiled by the endless promises that erupted like treacherous volcanoes during election times …
Writer‘s Block: I scratched my beard .. looking for inspiration. …. Through the window a vaguely familiar film song floated in and spread itself across the room. And it came! Ahl Sweet inspiration! …a Hindi movie is like a mural … surely I could milk a few short stories out of one. …
