Posted in Kunal Goel, Poems by Kunal Goel

remember the day we did not meet,
or the day we didn’t talk rather
the day when it was not windy
the day it did not rain.

When Valentine Screws

Posted in Kunal Goel, Short stories by Kunal Goel

Happy Valentine’s Day and all.
On this V-day I remember my last year’s V-day. Last year in Febuary I took a trip to a small town in East Africa. Well I have this eccentric friend of mine, Ishan, and he has this crazy young uncle who deals in some leather stuff export business. So what happens is Ishan and me have nothing to do like kites in the rainy season. More

John Ramuskus gave a quiet fart.
John Ramuskus picked himself up.

A Review of “One Night @ The Call Centre by Chetan Bhagat”

Posted in Books, Kunal Goel by Kunal Goel

This is the second book by Chetan Bhagat, whose first book “Five Point Someone” was a major hit in India. This one is even better than his first book. It’s funny and interesting and very light. Bhagat is an excellent storyteller but he needs a good editor. The book is very cheap at 95 rupees, but cheapness comes at a price: bad editor and bad paper/print quality. I started reading it last night and finished it in one sitting, 6 hours straight. No, I wasn’t sitting, I was lying.

First Love

Posted in Kunal Goel, Poems by Kunal Goel

Detour my lovely boy you are
Fantastic and so cool!
Oh duh nston you are wonderful,
And I am just a fool.

I think of you all night and day,
Then day and night again.
My every waking thought is you,
I’m sane, no I’m insane.
