ATHLETICS   For me running provides a unique sense of peace, a rhythm that clears the mind and soothes the soul! 😌 I train at the Athletic Stadium, Bambolim. Athletics apart from being a major hobby, is a key aspect of my life! It fuels my spirit (soul). Whether it's the thrill of the race, the pursuit for pbs or the discipline of training, I enjoy every moment of it!🤍🧿 📍 Athletic Stadium, Bambolim  For me speed isn't just a skill; it's a way of life. As a passionate athlete, I thrive on the rush of the track, the pounding of my feet against the ground, and the surge of adrenaline that comes with every race. Running fast isn't just something I do; it's who I am. I consider every sprint, every race, every competition a battle against time, a test of will, and a step closer to greatness.   I don’t just run for the sake of it! I chase the limits of human speed! With every explosive start and powerful stride, I push myself harder, training relentlessly to refine my ...

Petrolhead Cars are more than just machines to me, they are a perfect blend of speed, power, and engineering artistry. The roar of an engine, the thrill of acceleration, and the freedom of the open road fuel my passion. Whether it's mile-driven cars, classic muscle, high-performance supercars, or precision-built machines, I appreciate every detail. Driving isn’t just a hobby; it’s an experience, a connection between man and machine that never gets old!! For me, long drives are more than just a journey, they’re an escape, a rhythm, a feeling of pure freedom. The open road, the hum of the engine, and the perfect soundtrack create an unmatched experience. With every mile, the stress fades, replaced by the thrill of motion and the pulse of the music. Whether it’s a winding mountain road, a coastal highway, or an endless stretch under the night sky, the combination of speed and sound makes every drive unforgettable. The road is there, it will always be there. You just have to decide whe...

  Doodling Doodle your thoughts, sketch your world, create without limits! This isnt a regular hobby as such, it's more like a once in a blue moon kinda thing. I am not a great artist (definitely not great when Im not in the mood) but fortunately if my mood, the weather, the music, the internal drive all are in perfect sync then I would like to call myself a beginner artist. I like to doodle once in a blue moon, if I have the time and my favourite black gel pen! As I mentioned earlier, not a full-time artist but when I have a black gel pen in my hand ~ it's a whole another story, I can sit doodling for hours, peacefully listening to music.... Doodling for me, can also be a form of expressing my love. Be it maybe a card for example a b'day card, if I may doodle a b'day card and give it to you .. consider yourself very lucky! Coz it's not just the card I'm giving. I'm giving you the time that I've taken out from my life! The black gel pen plays a crucial r...

As a car enthusiast and someone who simply loves the thrill of driving, 'Ford v Ferrari' was more than just a movie—it was an experience. Directed by James Mangold, this film perfectly captures the essence of racing, the spirit of competition, and the relentless pursuit of perfection on the track.   The story follows Carroll Shelby (Matt Damon) and Ken Miles (Christian Bale) as they take on the monumental task of building a car capable of dethroning Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans . Their journey is filled with challenges, from corporate interference to the sheer brutality of endurance racing. Yet, through it all, the film beautifully portrays their passion, determination, and unwavering love for speed.   One of the things I absolutely loved about this movie was how authentically it depicted the raw intensity of racing. The sound design, cinematography, and practical effects made every race scene feel visceral—you could almost smell the burning rubber and feel t...
