గాలిలో తేలాలని ఉందా ? ఐతే, ఇదిగో చిట్కా !
I am not sure how many time I listened to this song. May be this one is the perfect example for a simple yet powerful song.

Matt Taibbi Gets His Revenge on Goldman Shills
Back in May 2009, I talked a lot about Matt Taibbi’s article in Rolling Stone magazine, in which he called Goldman Sachs a “Vampire Squid.” In January of this year, I had written an article on TeluGlobe about Matt’s lone crusade against the Wall Street’s mighty banks. Alas, I lost that article to a database […]
Interview With Yandamuri Veerendranath
As I grew up, I am not reading as much Telugu literature – especially Telugu fiction. But, as a teenager I read just about everything Yandamuri wrote. I read his first novel “Rushi” when it came out as a supplicant to Swathi monthly. I immediately wrote a letter to him as soon as I read […]

Guitar Hero!
Let me present you the unforgettable and mostly forgotten song by us (Telugu). I think the original version is Hindi and please correct if I am wrong. Hindi version is amazing and with divine Kishore Kumar’s voice it is brilliantly composed tune. Then comes the Tamil version composed by Ilayaraja. Looks like it is a […]
KCR is Thirsting for Blood – What is Your Response Going to Be?
In a meeting attended by 15,000 delegates on April 28th in Secunderabad, TRS President KCR threatened that there will be a civil war if Andhra Pradesh State is not divided. Going by the recent wave of separatist violence, KCR might not be making empty threats. Separatist thuggery will most likely resume post December, 2010. The […]
Immigrant or Criminal?
Sometimes, the news makes me cringe. I don’t know how many of you have read about Arizona’s Senate Bill 1070. This legislation was recently passed, making it legal for the police to stop people and demand a verification of immigration status. The motivation behind this bill is to find immigrants who are in this country […]
Senators Gone Too Far on Goldman!
The readers of this blog know how much I love Goldman!! I watched some part of the ‘Goldman hearings’ yesterday. A lot of these senators’ populist rhetoric is utterly stupid. So stupid that even I felt some sympathy for Goldman. Here is the simplified business model of Goldman As a market maker Goldman buys and […]
Scary Facebook, Careful out there.
Folks, beware if you are a facebook user. I used to think Google as Evil company( Rakshasi) , but facebook is more criminal ( Brahma Rakshasi) :). The issue is facebook really knows who you are. Like the old saying “Tell Me Who Your Friends Are and I Will Tell You Who You Are” , […]
Tella Chokka Smruthi (The Code of White Collar)
Financial Crisis, Meltdown, Free Market, Reform, Reward, ROI, Financial Markets, Profit, Market Capitalisation etc., etc., are the catch words of the day. Recently there was a hot discussion on Free Market on MMGL too. This is a lyric written at the backdrop of market’s collapse over the past one decade, hurt by the fact that […]
Bongulo Chicken c/o Papikondalu
I learned about this from recent movie, Village lo Vinayakudu. I thought that was actually a funny name but surprised to see this video that it actually exists. Enjoy!
Stock Market Outlook
If it appears from my writings that I am heavily into stock market, that would be true in the past. But, currently I am in a time out mode. For this reason, so far on this blog I refrained from making a market call. The closest comment I made on market direction was in early […]
A Buffet of Derivatives in the New Financial Regulation Bill?
Remember the phrase by Mr. Buffet, “Financial weapons of mass destruction?” Not only that, several times he mocked investment bankers for little or no value they create in the economy. That was before he himself got stuck in a deep derivatives mess in 2008. He sold European style puts on S&P and it was rumored […]
My Hat Tip to Chakravarthy
For some time I have been planning to write this note of appreciation for Chakravarthy garu. I wanted to spend enough time to make sure I will hit all the points. If I waited for finding enough time, this note will lose its value. Readers of this blog and listeners of my show know where […]
Early Days of Fake News
I am a big fan of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Of course, that’s why one of TeluGlobe’s categories is “Fake News.” I think Fake News is the best way to have a satirical take on some the most ridiculous current events. Fake News shows have effectively shed light on the hypocrisy of many […]
