On Wednesday morning, the Tidel Park security were removing some of the crow nests built on the lamp posts right in front of the massive building. My heart went out to the crows….now where would they find a place to stay?
I never believed God would answer my prayers so shortly, for as soon as I entered the office, I saw Sandhya Reddy (my colleague) in her new hairstyle. Now, I have another set of prayers – hope the eeg-laying season is not nearing.On Wednesday morning, the Tidel Park security were removing some of the crow nests built on the lamp posts right in front of the massive building. My heart went out to the crows….now where would they find a place to stay?I never believed God would answer my prayers so shortly, for as soon as I entered the office, I saw Sandhya Reddy (my colleague) in her new hairstyle. Now, I have another set of prayers – hope the eeg-laying season is not nearing.I am told, on Tuesday evening, this environmentalist & conversationalist friend of mine got inspired by Urmila Matondkar’s latest hairstyle. Unfortunately for Sandhya, it was Urmila’s hairdo for the movie Bhoot.

But what the heck, who cares. And thats what we all appreciate about Sandhya. In Hindi there is a saying that goes, baal baal bachgaye (saved by a hair’s breadth). And in this girl’s case, sirf baal hi bache (only the hair was saved). But as providence would have it, it was the hair-stylist who was left with a mop of hair.

It was the hair-stylist’s initiative that earned her this look. She is known to have asked her, “Miss, shall we go in for the Urmila look?” And our Sandhya was Reddy……oops ready.

But then, there are varied reports. According to a few not-so-reliable sources (guys, shall I name you all?), Sandhya went in for a not-so-short hairdo. But was forced to cut her hair short, because the hair-stylist ran short on change – the barber was compensating. And we are paying.

Sandhya, aab teri subha kaab hogi? (Sandhya, when will it dawn for you?)
