Where inhibitions are set free!

Author Radhika Gopakumar

My friends say I am a very hyperactive, noisy person; although my blogs might not reflect that. I blog mainly about confused feelings I get from insane reveries I have. I have to be super-depressed, super-excited or super-pissed off to write, thereby making my writing pretty much emotional (or so people tell me). There have been people who have loved me for what I write, there have also been people who have despised me for it. Whichever way, I continue to write because I believe in doing what I like, no matter what others say.

Malayalis’ Beef with Sunglasses and English

I have often wondered what Malayalis’ beef with sunglasses is. Because a lot of them sure do have a problem with it. Don’t believe me? Just go to the comments section of any picture of someone (no gender bias here)… Continue Reading →

Mommy Ramblings – #51

Taaru was driving Vedu crazy one day with her never-ending complaints—“Amme, Chechi is doing this!” “Amme, Chechi is doing that!” Fed up, Vedu told her sternly, “Stop being a complaint box!” Without missing a beat, Taaru clapped back with a… Continue Reading →

Nepotism or Parental Love? – The Big M Edition

Those who have read my older blogs know that I am someone who hates the “anti-nepotism” brigade that used someone’s tragic death as a weapon to spew their venom and are a bunch of losers who refuse to acknowledge the… Continue Reading →

Name and Respect – The Strange Correlation

Back when I was a business skills trainer with an IT giant, one of the lines I used to repeat the most to my trainees was this – “Don’t call me ma’am.” It took quite a bit of effort with… Continue Reading →
