Flipkart and it's big billion day scam!

                                         First things first.Flipkart is one of my favourite e-commerce portals(this blog even has an affiliate program with them) and I have bought many stuff(mostly books) from that website till date.So,naturally when the wonderful guys at Flipkart announced their big billion day sale which promised goods at ridiculously low prices(flash drives at Rs 1/- and Samsung tablets at just about a thousand rupees),like many of you I was also very much excited.I didn't want to miss out on any deal so I logged into their website at 7.30 am sharp(though the deals were supposed to begin only by 8 am)and kept on refreshing their page for almost 25 minutes.By about 7.58 am ,the deals started appearing in the site and I clicked on the link to buy the 'Samsung Tablet' which was being listed with a 'steal deal' price of 1,180 INR.The time was 8 am sharp and I was super excited to buy my first ever tablet.Alas,the item was 'Out of Stock'.Anyways thinking it to be a technical glitch,I kept on refreshing the page and by 8.01 am,the 'Out of Stock' thing suddenly became 'Sold Out'.WTF! I checked out many goodies which were listed in the 'Steal Deal' category and to my dismay,I found out that the story was the same for most of the stuff under the same category.What was even worse was that,almost all other products in the other categories were easily available and that too at usual prices(I mean at usual discounts which they give in their site).Still,most of the products/books were even priced higher when compared to amazon.in(remember,they aren't celebrating a 'Big Billion Day',today!).So,the bottom line is Flipkart's 'Big Billion Day' discounts is nothing but a sham.They are trying to fool you.Don't fall for their trap!

The New Chetan Bhagat book@ 150/- INR(Flipkart/Oct 6,2014: 5.31 P.M. IST)

What a shame!

Tarun Tejpal

I have always felt that 'Tehelka' was just another mouth piece of 'the ruling party'.Except for a few occassions,it has always behaved like one.Now,with it's founder and editor-in-chief facing serious charges of rape(with even the greatest 'liberals' and pseudo-intellectuals like Ms.Roy,publicly disowning him)and it's managing editor behaving as if she has got some paranoid delusions,the folks at Tehelka have also proved that they are a bunch of shameless people who never practiced what they preached.Mr.Tejpal might come out unscathed from this scandal,thanks to the 'good contacts' he has with the high and the mighty,but you've been 'exposed',Mr editor!

Nikhimenon has nothing to do with 'Hansika Motwani's Growth Hormones'

      Yesterday while randomly browsing the internet, I chanced upon this particular site which calculates the statistics about website usage.Obviously I wanted to know what it thought about randomthoughts which is more popular in India than the IPL and it's CEO nikhimenon is the Mark Zuckerbergof India.This is what I saw.



Hansi..?Who?The only Hansie i know is Hansie Cronje.Who the hell is this Hansika Motwani?"Hansika Motwani is an Indian Actress",my personal assistant(yeah,I do have a PA, being the CEO of the country's most popular blog means business! My PA, dinkan is now busy finishing my 'debut novel' "I wanna love you baby,you wanna love me?..-What not to do in IIPM". which will hit the stores by the middle of MAY.The publisher Rupali&Co says the book is a 'National Best seller' already!) tells me scratching his groin.Actress?Is she as famous as Sunny Leone,the Bollywood star(and pride of India)introduced by Mahesh Bhatt(who was seen fuming the other day for the U.S. having detained some random 'Khan' who spends more time dancing in cricketgrounds and opening random textile shops in India than actually doing what he is famous for.(C'mmon, now don't ask me what this guy is famous for!- RT is a family blog!!!) Moreover nikhimenon too loves Karan Johar.The point is nikhimenon wishes to categorically state that neither he nor his blog  knows somebody by the name 'Hansika Motwani' or her 'growth hormones'.So those of you who reached here searching for it may kindly leave the place without creating a mess.Read Times of India.
