Funny & Punny And Their Fascinating Tales


Book Description

Rave reviews for my 1st book – Fascinating Thoughts – encourages me to go for one more. It is again a collection of my articles written over a period of time. Pun in expression always fascinates me. I see pun in almost everything. It packs a ‘pun’ch surely! When there is pun, there is fun. ‘If-there-is-none, I-will-find-one’ is my playful and favorite challenge. Welcome to Funny & Punny – and their fascinating tales! Mindful that mind is a minefield of mindboggling and endless emotions, this collection broadly consists of articles articulating my thoughts relating to human psychology, general lifestyle, views on current political matters, my banking experiences. Mindful of the short and mercurial attention span, I have tried to confine my articles to one page or less for most part! The joy of writing is immense, more so when some are published in Bank’s house magazines, prominent newspapers. ‘Sach’an Impact of Milestones, Writer’s Gambit, Working in Tandem, Funglish appeared in The New Indian Express in its Timeout \ Mind Space columns. The Hindu carried ‘Hey, Consumers, Beware of these offers’ in its Open Page. I have created two characters – Funny & Punny – through whom I develop a dialogue, a conversation. As you read, you will find that F&P are illustrative characters indulging in soul-searching, reflective enquiries, teasing one’s conscience with probing questions, highlighting life’s contradictions encompassing the wide range of emotions besides cheering you up with rib-tickling puns.
