Sakshi Juneja, the celebrity blogger from Desidabba joins us on the eve of our 50th episode. She also happens to be a huge Rakhi Sawant fan and is an unabashed PR machine for Rakhi on the cyber space. Listen to know more!!! India is a place with a universe of possibilities. 'We are like that only' is a phrase that works well for India, but, not so much when a father rapes his 13 year old daughter and is granted bail for 'technical reasons'! And when they add people on the VIP list who can skip scrutiny check at airports, etc. like they add food items on a hotel menu, it starts getting scary!

While Richard Gere chose to kiss Shilpa Shetty on stage, as if on cue, the Shiv Sainiks played their "Indian Culture" card and burned effigies of the celebrities. I wonder where they got posters of Richard Gere. While Shiv sainiks were only doing their job, we think aloud why does the Indian media whore itself time and again! If you have some answers, please enlighten us!

Dare not talk about Cricket in India. You will be taxed. I guess, sania mirza is our only sporting hope now. And even that being very hopeful! But a good thing that happened was that Manjunath's murderers get the death sentence. I would like to see that on Youtube. May manjunath rest in peace.

Project England worked out pretty well for Tata as CSN lost the 9 round bidding war. Abhishek gives us the complete low-down on what ever happened with the deal. We also spent sometime talking about the Ranji Final where almost almost half of the Indian cricket team had descended. Geofferey boycott, Vinod Kambli, Vengsarkar, Tendulkar family, and Rahul Dravid played a cameo apperance as well...For the first time, We rant about technology. How could microsoft disable the Office 2007 beta without any notice and why is google asking for $2 or more an Indicast adwords campaign?

Sachin's back in form and peaking at the right time. He has always had a good time at the world cups and I guess this world cup is going to be business as usual for him. Mean while, Abshishek's name is missing from the voter list even though he has a voter registration. So he couldn't get a say in democracy this time. My parents had to go through the same during the elections as well. Debashish Chakraborty joined us on Indicast as a guest to tell us all about Indibloggies. Indibloggies were started by him in 2003 and have become an annual online event. Its like the Oscars for the Indian Blogworld.
