Happy Independence Day!
by Anjali Gupta
Looking for a reason to start a web company in your home country? Here’s one more from Santosh and myself – you get to celebrate your Independence Day with every citizen who visits your website.
In true web-ishtyle BookEazy added a splash of our tri-colour to its logo.
This would not have been possible without BookEazy. Besides movies, if there’s anything that gets our team fired up, it’s the excitement of being an Indian and in India at this juncture. If you’d like to add the magic of cinema to your Independence Day celebrations, we recommend one of the following:
– Watch the recently released “Chale Chalo” on DVD (Making of Lagaan) or the movie itself. If you thought starting a company was hard, wait till you see this one. I recommend this to any one who is looking for some inspiration and a lesson in planning.
– Listen to A.R. Rehman’s renderings of our national anthem. The previews of the album released this week look spectacular and every legend you can imagine in the field of Indian music is a part of it.
– And, of course, you must catch the latest blockbuster Chak De! India on BookEazy.com. After a long time, there’s a movie whose spirit is compelling enough to draw out even the not-so regular movie fans.
I don’t know about starting a ‘company’ as such, but then the entrepreneurial bug did bite me. I started off on my own and somehow escaped the US Dollar bug. I am proud to be here and be identified as an Indian.
A.R. Rehman’s varied renderings, the ubiquitous enthusiasm, the feverish excitement of being an Indian is fanning out like it had happened in America ( That’s how the American dream Got Sold, eh?)
This isn’t where I lurk, because I am usually harping about Biznez, but then, You got my attention! 🙂
