Gear up for Bengaluru’s biggest running celebration with the details below: Your BIB Number is 27757 Run Category – Half Marathon Slot – C——both air-india and indigo have finally resumed flights to tribuvan. AI’s first flight has landed just now i think. indigo will be sometime post midnite probably. praying for quick return, and for an end to this ordeal. i can well imagine the hardships due to lack of proper sleep, tension due to happenings across the country, infrequent access to good quality food and water, lack of communication due to mobile phone without charge. and to also remember that all this hardship comes after a heavy week of trekking and travel. i hope to wake up tomorow morning to some good news ( wud more call it “relief-news”).gud nite to everyone. agasthya is a nice name airport is reopening at 5pm, scheduling is happening now, hopefully airindia shud get priority over indigo, she shud be back by nite after this ordeal thankfully, and to reduce anxiety, i see many positives here ( amidst the gloom) 1. army background, training, resilience 2. as part of a huge isha group where each will give support to the other 3. lone person with no kid burden to look out for am sure it will be a gud story to tell grandkids, but then, who needs the story… kaca,coo,hasina – pl do speak to sundar to keep him cheered up. maybe things are not so bad as coming out in the media group M, samsung, hcl def have representation/offices in katmandu. in case it is feasible for any of u guys to cross-connect across geographies/depts, to activate any kind of help/support possible at this moment… i know its a long shot, but just wanted to pen here. family wud be greatly anxious, but we are all there, atleast in spirit been seeing disturbing nepal news, with flights cancelled etc. jasmini had reached mansarovar on friday afternoon, and she must hv been bk in nick of time by monday nite.anyway, hv asked kaca to confirm and inform all of us. assume all is ok. just now heard about things getting uglier there——You saw my websites : saro22.com and more recently – kvv2.in and es22.info Today, on auspicious occasion of VC, I have started “kvv1.in” – this is dedicated to coopra, as u can see in the homepage I HAVE REGISTERED FOR THE MUMBAI HALF-MARATHON – 18 JAN 2026.

( bcos I have sent three of these snaps to over a 100 people sundaramurthy rd, apt name i forgot. also door no ? ( 2nd floor is it ?). coopra – can we take something for lakshmi/maami/paati ? quite lost here. apple, pomeg ? what do u say? am quite keen to explore the world of srjn’s three elder halfbros. how are they faring with the absence of their hp dad ? sarcasm can come later, but can someone do the honours ( ie describe tidbits of how that fam is coping?). yes, its none ofmy business great daa machan. where is this dance? and who is the dance partner? u guys look like nice homo couple, with one hand on the iduppu etc——unwise of me to bring it up here and I don’t want to…but @coopra if you recall…you issued me a (cowardly) threat via @kaca that if you complain to Unisys, I will be scaked for parivahan vehicle insurance issue…which is actually public data…but in this case you (voluntarily, not me…that’s how HR may see it) shared payslips and form 16 with @kuvevi…but you can see that I am actively imploring/pleading (with) him not to share this with cousin Anusha Vanguri who just so happens to be your AGM HR (recently promoted)….! you see the difference in our intents and approach last word – the nayak and kalnayak think very similarly. at 1030am after ur post on cfo, i was frantically sesrching online to look for a finance dept person name whose name was similar to mine——quick but sincere assertion from me – coopra, even assuming ( repeat – even assuming) that i hv downloaded and kept them safe, they will never ever be used by me. even if assuming i hv seen all of it, i will never ever refer to it. even if i hv read it closely, it will never remain in my mind. i already told that i dont want to talk about it again. i will keep that word henceforth, even if the northern naayak keeps needling it’s very interesting to note ‘why’ @kuvevi decided to share and bring up the issue in this grp. it was a 1:1 between @coopra and him and could have been dealt appropriately. But @kuvevi is saying something when he chose to share it here!! that’s an exciting prospect for all of us…it is also a indirect threat to @coopra, romba vaal aattaa koodaadu, un yogyada enakku theriyum etc… also this happened because @coopra keeps ‘dm’ ing @kuvevi and when he shared the pdfs and chose whatsapp, @kuvevi’s name appeared on top of the list and perhaps CFO’s name too is ‘sat(h)ish who knows…but all in all, i’m rubbing my hands in glee, at the thought that it’s in the hands of @kuvevi who in a nice way is threatening @coopra…!!! yay!! thanks to @kuvevi by deciding to make this whole episode ‘public’coopra – while there can be 1001 moral preachings made to me, i am surprised why there is not ONE message to YOU ! after all, i am not the protagonist here who committed this fiasco ok, just one message on this topic, on a serious note, and i will stop. guys – pl dont hanker behind “privacy” all the time. in today’s world, they are less and less meaningful. just see what has now happened to the ever-secretive coopra. his entire jaadhagam is my hands, and one single click will destroy his ( hitherto carefully built) private matters. so, using a contrarian approach, its better to loosen up. apart from my bank login password, all my affairs, data etc are public. will not continue to taunt coopra any more, but the lesson is – it takes one moment, one faux pas, one slip of finger, to destroy all that carefully built repository. think – just one click by his car driver was enof to send those 2000 videos to whole public, thus earning a life sentence yesterday ( plus many more to follow) for prajwal revanna what crore and what myth u are talking about ?? i hv no idea! u know what wud hv happened if the docs had fallen into wrong hands ? the person wud hv immediately downloaded/forwarded the docs to his whatsapp no ( so that ur deletion will hv no effect). he wud hv then started dissecting every single piece of info in those pdfs, right from the chawl address to the pan number etc. he wud hv ( and will be doing) much much more! thankfully, since it is ethical me at the other end, u hv been saved——i woke up just now. had a very bad sleep. coopra has thankfully deleted the pdfs last nite on seeing the messages. but his faux pas is unpardobable. what if they had fallen into wrong hands? thankfully, given my right ethics, they hv been burried. shudder to imagine consequences had they fallen into wrong hands. so, we all demand an explanation. why did this happen in the first place? coopra, cobra deserves to know something strange happened at 730pm. i got three pdfs from coopra on dm. all his salary slips, his itr calculations etc. really dunno if he had sent it by mistake. if so, will gladly delete them at my end. if not, am really, really puzzled as to why the v secretive coopra wud suddenly want to share something so sensitive, with ME this is really baffling.unable to call coopra now since at a movie with fam. trust all gud at coopra end, since this kind of action from coopra is unprecedented coopra – was this 2 day visit to chennai some company-wide event at TVS SCL ? my cousin “Anusha vanguri” got promoted today as AGM-HR. I assume u wud be getting company-wide emails on promotion list etc TMT ECG wud be in hard copy. Will scan and send on Monday as well. will give entire set of my medical records – but in one full snapshot/page rather than all these pdfs. all of us in this group, are blessed to have someone like u with us. It is not about the knowledge u bring in, but about ur concern and enthu towards this field. all the best for ur strategic dinner meet its on Monday daa. will share all repots with u. 11am is the checkup doc. At 1230pm, am meeting cardiologist Dr Srikanth Shetty at sakra i have already met her. also told her to wait for me to finish my tests. both of us are then going to marriott at bellandur and taking a room. i dont want her to be embarrassed the next time, but rather boldly say – yes, i hv been intimate recently. also, her vagina might feel sore after pap. hence i am helping her out at marriot why coopra wasting company money by staying in 5-star hotel overnite, and then taking the morning flight to come back to blr ? there are 4 flights between 9pm and 1am ( my dau is taking the 1145pm flight). what is his justifaction ? cobra wants to know i was in the counter asking some doubt. a young girl came in – she asked about pap smear. counter girl asked – age? 24. hmm are u married? no. are u in relationship ? no. any intimacy even rarely ? (i cud sideways see the girl turning red). no. ok, no need pap smear coopra – the above are the tests i hv chosen. tmt and not echo bcos i did echo in april 2025 ( it is an either or, as per my package). i hv added crp and lpa (lipoprotein A). rajani has also booked me a cardiologist visit for nxt week ( general cardio check). i asked about lung function test but nobody knew good part is – my weight was 80.8kg on april 27, 2025 ( as per sakra file when i did my prev check). u can see it now – 73.8kg. but they also reduced my height by 1 cm, ie 167 to 166! bp i hv always had around this range 125 to 130. so its ok i guess my darling coopra – thanks for ur health points in the midst of ur travel. am at sakra now, 810am on 1 aug 2025. noted all ur points, will ask. u are my deivam daa coopra. nee irukka enakku enna daa kavalai? pl send ur travel /meeting snaps. where hv u gone to? at goa, i went right into middle of the verna waterfalls. everyone was screaming, asking me to move away from the flow force. i was making merry sats medicine taken from april 27, 2025 : glycomet 500 SR after breakfast for diabetes, atorva 5mg after dinner for cholesterol, mecobrook plus vitamin b12 after dinner ( general medication taken by self and not doctor-precribed) tomorow is my health check at sakra. to help recall, i was diagnosed with diabetes in april 2025, started taking medicine for diab and cholesterol. i was 81kg then. at that point, i vowed to myself that i will reduce 12-13 kg in 3 months and then go for checkup again. 3 months has now passed, but i wavered on my effort after reaching 75kg. i think it now stands around 76kg. meanwhile, rajani insisted that my 3-month sched HAS to be met, and herself booked the checkup. so, i will be going tomorow morning, will keep u guys updated gud morning daa coopra. that’s ur one and only name. I refuse to accept any other. u are my darling coopra and a highly evolved human, who will never be easily provoked. so coopra, relax——I have also invited him, Prof Hrishikesha Krishnan (till recently Director of IIM-B) and Prof Ramesh Venkateshwaran (IIMB Faculty and Chairman Board of Governors IIT-Palakkad) while at BIAL for events and functions small anecdote : discussion at siva’s function sats : congrats to adithi and varun. what does varun do, btw ? ramdas sir (RS) : oh, thanks. and u must hv met my sil varun during the wedding, right ? he is .. blah blah sats : no, sir. i did not come to the wedding RS : what ??? why not ? were u traveling or something ? sats : no sir, i had no knowledge of the wedding RS : what ??? u were not invited ?? but we had clearly told hasina to invite u ? sats ( for sake of politeness) : am sure he tried to reach me.. maybe i was traveling… really happy for them blah blah.. ( and sats changed the topic) hasina – psychologically, as very “saraasari” brahmins, we always look for “precedent” / past experiences and examples by others. for example – my cousin aruna cud right-royally “blame” it on her own parents ( gv and guru married inter-community. gv is iyer and guru is madhwa). so she bravely and boldy chose her life-partner ( an iyengar) Same way, i always keep looking for “justifications” among my friend/family circle, so that i can use their examples to justify what will probably happen in my own family. Therefore, and with quite a good number of both boys and girls lined up among ourselves ( our families and those of our siblings), i am keen, vicariously speaking, of prospective inter-caste and inter-community linkages. hence pl let us know as soon as u hear confirmedly of any such news, so that we will feel less anxious and more relaxed coopra – as I mentioned to u on phone, u are my bro, u are my angel, u are my guru. unakka ella urimayum irukku, to ask me anything and everything ! I closed that particular topic only because I felt I dont have more authority at this point of time. who knows what will happen in 3-4 years time ? trust u understand. so let that remain closed. as regards duster, braava had also asked me yday. so I will collate and send the whole stuff, with learnings for all u car owners. will do by eod since busy with oreo matters, as told to u hv reduced 96k bill to 82771 (after 1 hour of sweet/sour nego). fought and made it 82000 as of 508pm. last massive push has just happened, to try 80k roundoff. lets see, am still hoping. but these guys are not giving me any hope below 82k. lets see coopra – as automobile logistics guy, know anyone in renault? duster bill is around a lakh da machan can u hear the sanskrit jayanti te sukritino song towards the climactic end ?what a song, man. what a song above is one of my most loved ( even today i cry to this song) pieces of raaja. go to 3:18, when she bows to KH with “acharya devo bhava”. goosebumps. hear the concluding sanskrit verse – on death hasina, lakshmi – wonderful of u to hv joined dr vibhuthi in this foundation. will spread the word.will go thru the pgm in detail a little later ( am in car now) and see how i can also contribute. txs, was not aware earlier hasina – are u simply recklessly forwarding, or are u also attending the dance? if only the former, this might be considered a spam ( unless u know the people at vibhor) they are very genuine. they even save money by using the same cake for both birthday and anniversary ( by rubbing off one of the occasions). I am going to donate Rs 100,001 to them now pranav, obviously comes from a v rich family. was told his dad is a CA. the family ( parents, sister, pranav) stayed at a property called “the postcard”. rate is 19K+ taxes per day. pranav hosted dinner ( no occasion. just generally) for 6-7 friends on sat night (including na1). each thali was 1300+taxes during my walk in benaulim beach on Saturday, I saw this live snake ( rb later told me it looked like a viper, but not sure) – it was slowly wriggling right next to me on the beach. I took some snaps bits-goa has constructed a very large Birla mandir adjoining the main campus. very impressive. we both visited on Saturday ( na1 was having her dress rehearsal during that time) guys – our arrival was as per this plan, no changes. So we dropped na1 at her bus place by 3pm, and were in airport by 315pm as stated earlier. the flight took off at 515pm, reached blr at 630pm. we took a quickride cab at 645pm, reached home at 828pm ( 1:43 hrs ride due to evening traffic) inspite of being a father to 2 daus, i still am such a perverted individual. for eg, I took a very “strategic” photo, which u can see above. I need ur comments – is this snap public ? is this shareable My observations from y’day’s convocation: 1. Very well organised – overall 2. Almost flawless execution 3. Excellent infrastructure – hall, seating, lighting, sound system etc 4. Un/under-represented – Almost NO students from North East, that is sad and something needs to be done 5. Just 1% to 2% muslim students of graduating class who recd their convocation – needs improvement soon (for sake of the community) and one other interesting observation, perhaps the only community in the country where one cannot identify the region they come from just based on their names…even christians to some extent can be identified as mallu-christians, tamizh christians etc… 6. 40% North Indians, 25% – Maharashtrians and Gujjus, 15 to 20% – Bongs + Odias and 15% to 20% – South Indians…(that was a BIG surprise for me…) thanks and hearty congrats to Niharika, sister Nisha, grand parents and the proud parents…whose years of support and encouragement is the culmination and highpoint of today’s convocation both me and amma loved the commencement sppeches. each of them werw good – dr rao, dr kundu, dr abhay karandikar esp. we can anyway see the spoeches later in yt. not at all boring. — and entire ceremony hae been done with so much of sobriety and class, list of bits achievements v v impressive. sorry na2 – we shud hv flown u to goa (after the 24th makeup) missed doing it, feeling bad Hearty congratulations and best wishes to dear Niharika on her well earned dual degree!! This is such a proud moment and both the ladies in the car look dazzling…! It’s such a proud moment for her and the parents!! Since it was a Sunday, perhaps Nisha too could have joined, would have been a great family photo!! Why Dr.RRR and Mrs missing Vignesh was born without left lung he had his stomach in the place of left lung large and small intestine in place of stomach child trust chennai doctor did surgery immediately after his birth and said lung will grow in 9 to 10 years time, he battled breathing issue and has now overcome all, proud of his success and achievements a born fighter by way of a more anecdotal note : Niharika headed Shrutilalaya at BITS Goa, where they had invited Ramakrisha Murthy : if u dont believe me, see this clip – with na1’s vote of thanks https://youtu.be/GZWmuSKJYOI?t=12054 The same Murthy gaaru did the 6pm concert today. Her junior Vikramaditya Voleti, had attended. He met Murthy Gaaru who enquired about na1 as well. Now Vikram too has some concerns / suggestions for the organisers. Will pen them down at leisure. https://www.youtube.com/live/VTEzD6YjZps?si=9gXROun8JJCzpZaw samoogam needs better content, sharper marketing, wider audience, a more inclusive approach overall. Its only your second season of “Nadalahari”, so the poor crowd is understandable. But just keep at it, and all the best u guys are not reverting on this, I will directly plan with Hasina ( upon my return from goa) and meet paati ( based on her and their family’s convenience) fwdg my goa itinerary here – if this is considered spam, I will henceforth desist : —— guys – pl note – 1. cab ( good new cab as wanted by rboss) reaching 9am tomorrow, for airport drop 2. at goa airport, we have a self-drive car (swift) which i have booked for my raaji. it will be with us for almost entire time ( i need to drop it back at airport at 930am on monday. thats ok, i will walk back to hotel ( 2km away) after that. we will check out by 2-230pm (if they allow) on monday, and be in airport by 315pm. will figure out how na2 reaches the bus station. 3. reasons i opted for cab is : rb fracture / may be odd to go to bitsg with raaji in scooter / it is raining in goa / got a great rate i suggest sat or sun – 11am meet paati, then proceed for lunch ( whether at fc or lp or hotel). pl revert, guys Religion, rituals, practices – my take…! 24/Jul/2025 I will state my position very clearly…in the form of a rapid fire – yes/no format, (but alternate one-word responses allowed) 1. am I an atheist – NO 2.

Do I like the mantras chanted in various rituals – Yes, more because I like languages and the patterns of sound it creates…feels good 8. Do I think that mantras and rituals are the ONLY way to awareness and self-realisation – NO, in fact they are more often than not a hindrance 9. Do I like bhajanai etc (one form of ritual) – love it, for the variety, music, rhythm and energy, though I don’t understand the meaning of most bhajan songs 10. Do you truly like Indian classical music, mainly carnatic but also hindustani – love it, it burns me internally..! 11. Would you rather feed the poor and hungry than feed the not poor but hungry – former, definitely my heart goes to the poor and hungry 12. Are you a confused person when it comes to giving up rituals completely – Yes, I continue to wear my poonal. 13. Are you working towards finding answers that can help you give up rituals completely – Yes, even become poonal-free someday…but may retain it because of my love for parents, who gave it to me. 14. Do you think rituals really add any value to your life – NO 15. Does your family believe in rituals more than you at this point – Yes 16. Have you made your position clear to them about your take on rituals – Yes 17. If you had to choose between being a nice human being vs being someone who follows shastras/rituals what would you choose – former 18.

Do you enjoy it when 1000s of modaka-s are offered to agni bhagavan in sahasra-modaka homam – hate 20. Do you enjoy when cooked rice (havis) is offered to agni – NO 21. Can you sustain hrs of talks by the HH Sankaracharya-s or talks of Osho/JK etc… – latter 22.Would you like to see a world with active efforts to remove hunger and poverty or with a world with orthodox complex rituals that are meant/intended to alleviate hunger..? – former. 23.Love, compassion, inclusion, empathy vs caste, rituals, exclusivity, orthodoxy – your preference? – former 24.Good values, high-standards, simple living vs complex rituals, showmanship, moral superiority because of birth – any thoughts..? – former 25.Are you saying that if you had a choice today, you will renounce rituals and embrace kindness, love-for-all, food-for-all…? – latter
