About this issue

As you read this, close to a billion Indians are going to be voting (some would have already voted) for the General Elections, which will then decide who the next Prime Minister of India will be. The main contending parties seem to be the Aam Aadmi Party, the Bhartiya Janata Party, and the Congress. Based on existing “Opinion Polls”, the final contest will probably be between the Congress and the BJP, with AAP causing some ripples. Having said that, the scales seem to presently be tilting in favour of the BJP with Narendra Modi as its Prime Ministerial candidate, and the Congress close behind, with their probable Prime Ministerial candidate being Rahul Gandhi. The heat is on and so is the blame game. Name calling, washing dirty linen at rallies, are the norm of the day. By the middle of May, we will finally have the results and see the next rulers of India, and hope that whosoever wins, will take the country to a much better place than now. Change seems to be the order of the day! When people talk of Indians overseas excelling in their varied vocations we don’t realize exactly the extent of effort required in doing so out there. This issue, we came across and interviewed Gopal Lalmalani, a cardiologist, and Mayor of Oak Brook, a suburb of Chicago, USA. In the same vein we also met with Kishore Mandhyan, a former Political Director in the Executive Office of the UN Secretary-General, who is now settled back in Mumbai. Ravi Chabbria actually engineered his life into what he wanted, whether it was in Silicon Valley or right here in Bangalore. Leadership stories at their best! We also found that glamour and politics both seem to work great together with Soma Manghnani’s story of her tryst with the two. Her being part of the BJP youth cadre suits the country’s mood. Sindhis living the good life abroad yet again catch our fancy as we shift focus to restaurateurs, Rohit and Harsh Roopchand (from Hong Kong), of the Fatty Crab fame. They are only getting younger these days and we are talking of Chef Saransh Goila, all poised for more fame. Hiren Gaglani, CEO of Head Rush, one of the most unique adventure sports companies, lives life on the edge. We followed a small town Sufi singer Jatin Udasi on a melodious trail. Actor and DJ, Rahul Chabbria tickled our fancy, but we found his focus endearing. We found true grit in the form of Mohan Jani whose story is awe inspiring. His rise from an auto rickshaw driver to a successful businessman is related by his extremely proud daughter Kamiya Jani. Chocolatier Divya Burman, though married into an illustrious family, still dabbles in her “sweet and healthy” passion. Can a dynamic entrepreneur be far behind? Tanya Kewalramani preaches corporate social responsibility through her company, and we are proud to introduce to our readers our very own Olympic Gold winner Rishi Shahani. Bollywood and its antics well handled by celebrity manager Divya Tejuja is followed by fashion with the international accessory designer couple Deepa Gurnani and Jay Lakhani. The Sindhian always culls out even the young, and among them, certainly worth mentioning are Urvashi Punwani, DJ Jai Vaswani, Rinki Varindani and Angad Daryani. Enjoy reading while we continue our journey to locate more inspiring real-life stories for you.
