As I cross the street I see young boys wanting to be men, with gelled hair, pierced ears and low waist jeans. I’m no where close to those ‘oldies’ to exclaim “hamare zamane mei to…aaj kal ke bachhe bhi na…”  What I’m talking about is a generation that is enabled like never before, never before [...]
