Allah tero naam. Ishwar tero naam at Jodhpur RIFF changed my perspective.... Indian Carnatic music maestro TM Krishna collaborates with transwomen singers at the Jodhpur RIFF 2017 This was my very first visit to Jodhpur and I coincided it with an attempt to catch the Rajasthan International Folk Festival (RIFF) whose chief patron is Marwar's royalty Gaj Singh II. One of the renditions by Carnatic music maestro TM Krishna (TMK - as he is lovingly called) changed my life's perspective so much so that this feeling is here to stay and share. TMK sang a very popular song called 'Allah Tero Naam. Ishwar Tero Naam...' with a 'specific reason' as he perched effortlessly at the break of dawn at  Jaswant Thada near Mehrangarh Fort. With him were the absolute delights of the season — The  Jogappa singers. These transwomen musicians were clad in simple sarees, played traditional instruments and sang at an unusually shrill high pitch.  Music legend TM Kri...

Are you lost? Go Find Yourself! Travelling solo can be a boon for you, especially, if you are an Indian woman! In Landour, Mussoorie, a trash can summed up life for me :) Just a mere suggestion of a holiday brightens up my eyes, mind and soul. And when someone says 'paid holidays', the magical feeling of being the 'Chosen One' creates this pleasurable havoc in the insides. The feeling is beautiful. It gets further manifested when the travel actually begins. THE NAGA BUG TOUCH : That sense of escapism to remain a nobody and commit some innocent crimes, tickles my funny bone. My trip to Nagaland (in India) was my maiden trip to the North-East of India. I am rather embarrassed to say that as it should have got done a while ago. However, as I expected, it's truly the Naga people who are the true gems of the place. Their simple lifestyle, resilient work ethics and their polite attitude . Add with it a huge waves of music and dance, in traditional fine...
