On Friday, Professor @manojkjhadu, in his speech in Parliament, recommended my book, Allahu Akbar, as a must-read for all. I am delighted and honoured by this mention by such a respectable and conscientious parliamentarian on the floor of the House. Thank you, sir! 🙏

After much interaction on X, I’ve concluded that Indians (collectively and in aggregate) have sold their souls to the devil. Humanity has left their hearts.

I had @SushantSin as my guest today who said Narendra Modi's silence on the US killing three Indian sailors is cowardly and shameful. He also said the govt trying to invent a new record by claiming Modi has served longer as PM than Jawaharlal Nehru is “behuda” and “bakwas.”

The Norwegian journalist who was viciously attacked for questioning Indian PM Narendra Modi—@HelleLyngSvends—was on my radio show this morning. Hear what she had to say about that experience.

A fire engine of yore. It’s amazing to realise how much we have innovated and far we have come.

Amazing! This is coming from a man who gave all his hits before 2014 and dominated the film industry for most of the 1980s and 1990s. Was there so much unrest in the country then that he made a fortune selling tinsel town dreams?
#WATCH | Mumbai, Maharashtra: On Narendra Modi becoming India’s longest continuously serving Prime Minister, Film Director Subhash Ghai says, "I was born before India's independence.... Till 2014, the situation was so bad that there was unrest in our country. After PM Modi formed the government, the change I have seen is astonishing... No one has utilised technology as effectively as PM Modi... This is a big achievement..."

It is always a pleasure to speak with @Sheeetalps on air. He was on my show yesterday to comment on the Cockroach Janta Party's first protest in Delhi and what it means for the Opposition space. He said the first protest, in terms of turnout, was a fiasco. #cjp_पार्टी

This reminds me of Arvind Kejriwal's speech after ending his 49-day stint as Delhi CM. "Yeh BJP-Congress waale..." Such was the rhetoric. It worked then; it won't work anymore. India has moved on from that moment. Even BJP supporters now know that the BJP-Cong binary is false.
My sincere earnest request to political parties constituting INDIA alliance:
In my considered opinion, @INCIndia seems to be working hand in glove with @BJP4India to weaken regional and smaller parties across the country so that BJP and Cong can rule the county alternately; because of such double standards of @INCIndia, @AamAadmiParty decided to distance itself away from the alliance if the same continues to be headed by @INCIndia.

We had a fun conversation with Ramanjit Singh Sidhu sahib last week on the Iran war and Narendra Modi's helplessness. A tiny extract from that conversation. You can watch the full interview here: facebook.com/reel/9758215651…

Hindu intellectuals putting forward a radical thesis: that biryani is Muslim (therefore unacceptable) and pulav Hindu. Now you know why Narendra Modi-led India is already a vishwaguru.
"Biryani came from Hyderabad, It is a Muslims dish & has meat so it hurts Hindu sentiments
Since we are Hindus that's why we want to change the name of biryani and call it Pulao"
Imagine how weak the sentiments are that it gets hurt just by a name !
Peak inferiority complex.

Coming back to Vancouver from Nanaimo, I spotted this humpback whale. Also saw an Orca pod but it disappeared before I could take out my camera. #canada_life🇨🇦 #bc #vancouver

It is interesting to see AAP sympathisers mock and deride Rahul Gandhi all of a sudden. If you want to suggest that the Bharat Jodo Yatra was just a PR exercise that yielded nothing while the CJP protest is the real deal, should we take you seriously at all?
