Mental Shit of Kamra: The Easy Life or Appetite of Activist Working from Home

I came across a post from a stand-up comedian who creates jokes about India and earns a living from them.

The New Modern Era Picasso or M. F. Hussain

Remember M.F. Hussain? He was famous for making offensive paintings of Hindu goddesses like Devi Saraswati and Devi Laxmi in inappropriate ways. These paintings misrepresented the aesthetics of these deities, which he named Hindu God Laxmi.

It seems his corrupt mind simply wanted to disrupt society and he sat at home, enjoying himself.

Now, no one hosts his shows for Kunal Kamra. He’s retreated to his run-down home in South India and spends his time watching the country burn while scrolling through social media.

My Success Story from Different Domain: Success or Just Experience That I am Experiencing!

Let me share my story.

As a designer who chose to learn programming, I’ve been creating Apple App Store apps since the iPhone’s App Store launched.

Because I’m a designer first, I always make sure my programming instincts check for design consistency before I start coding.

I used to keep almost 500+ lines of code that handled font and icon sizes for every device my app supported.

One day while having a bath, I had an idea to simplify it because it was getting in the way of my thinking.

The Black Hat Pattern: A Look at Mr. Pandhare’s HealthTech Startup Business. I’m sharing some insights into how business groups like TIE operate.

Background

I went to TIE’s Conference in Pune around February 2025.

The event cost was about 7,000 to 8,000 rupees, and if you booked the conference ticket, you could get a membership for an additional 2,000 rupees.

However, that paid membership didn’t really offer any benefits because you still had to pay for each event, but you did get a discount.

So, you only got a discount on paid events, and then you started receiving an email newsletter for free. They have a members group on Zoho, but it seems no one uses it. Instead, they have an active WhatsApp group with multiple subgroups for each domain and industry.

The Story

Let’s get back to Mr. Pandhare, the young entrepreneur who started from humble beginnings.

I was browsing through the group notifications, and there he was, sharing that he had an extra LinkedIn Premium offer code he’d purchased for his employees, but it was more than he needed.

Understanding Life, Design, Programming and money. The Thought Process Behind Everything.

My Thoughts:

Good design is not visible design
Good code is code that never got written
Good salary that never got received

When I joined Advertising College, I read a book it said Advertising & Marketing is not required. You can’t advertise and market the wrong product. You have to fix the product design first. You can’t take loan from bank or take angel funding and starting fooling people to sale your ugly, bad and broken product and payback your loan.

So entrepreneur is not an agent who takes commision by taking someone’s money then creating and selling garbage and giving fraction of that money to lender and taking percentage as commission.

So selling software or products is not strategy to get rich fast.

Understanding Dalit or any Backward Class Leadership mindset by analysing what they show what they do and what they have achieved till this date.

This analysis will help us understanding theory of Shahu, Phule, Ambedkar through magnified lenses of jargons like ‘Bamani Kawa’ and ‘Anaji Pant’ and current status of Dalit Leadership family decedents.

Background

When I was in school, or college or even I started working in office or traveling by train I saw people around me who were Dalit or from Reserved or Backward class will abuse me about me being Brahman.

But a thing that I have to mention about me is that I never started abusing any Cast or Religion without any reason or started this kind of conversation.

But I have to face something like this.

But Soft Abuse that I always has to face that I can list here:

In today’s IT Software Industry, we delve into the true status of the failing Software Outsourcing Industry in India. We will explore the issues, causes, and examine the past and future prospects of this industry.

Background

I recall being in my elementary school when everyone proudly described themselves as either US Return or Foreign Return. They took immense pride in the fact that they had achieved a status that their ancestors had never even qualified for, spanning over five generations. Typically, these men would return to India to marry a girl from their religion and caste. The bride’s parents would happily marry their daughter to a US Return individual, who was expected to be an ultra-rich, highly accomplished, and well-off person.

Today

However, something changed once I began attending college in the early 2000s.

As of today, 2024, the software industry is in a state of decline. There are no jobs, lower salaries, bankruptcy, and court cases of fraud between business partners and investors.

A Reality and Illusions of Marathi Movie Stars and Film Industry. Written on onset of Phullwanti Movie.
Background

Yesterday I saw a Marathi movie called Phullwanti. But I was amazed that when I booked a ticket 18 hours before there were no bookings for the hall, I was the first to make a booking of two.

Now today, when I entered a cinema hall, there were only a maximum 10 to 15 seats, and remaining almost all 95% seats were empty.

Now Phullwanti Film Review:

Pros:
1. The cinematography was great and would match any Bollywood or Hollywood movie.
2. Music, colors, and costume design were great also.
3. But only I was impressed with Prajakta Mali and Gashmeer Mahajani’s acting.
Cons:
