Flirty alter ego…
Many congrats to #दशावतार team for being the first #Marathi #movie to be in the #oscars2026 contention list. What a way to cap stellar career for Dilip Prabhavalkar ji.
Last year,I tweeted that marathi #talent deserves nomination. Hope readers agree. More next year...

#WolfMoon 💕 🌕
Don’t be scared 😇… I braved polar vortex / arctic chill to capture this. 😅
I was never able to take #Moon pics from my #iPhone before.
#Selenophile in me is very happy to see how this one turned out.
Remembering #marathi song:
भुलवी मना, हे भोवती असणे तुझे…

Ranveer Singh acted 3x better than Akshaye ( sp? ) Khanna.

After🥹goodbyes' to बाबा & friends, time to✈️home.
IFE content was iffy so #Ipad to the rescue. After 10 mins, decided to watch #Stick ( #AppleTV ) on big screen. Pretty much 📖 + beauty 💤 😇😉 on the flight.
Enjoyed time in #Pune & #Mumbai.
Procrastination felt so good...now,🏃‍♂️is must.

Visited पर्वती ( Parvati ) temple on the last day. There were no visitors. I asked respected पुजारी जी if I could tag along. He happily narrated history of each temple, museum, historic artifacts.
सुंदर दर्शन 🙏🏻🚩
Then 🚗 home for packing.

#Pune = #foodie town, has awesome #coffee & #chai scene. Famous for *पाट्या*😎( instructive😁, sarcastic😇 ).
Know your Pune;then you know this #cafe.
If I started my own #café, guess the rule I will definitely implement. Every rule has an exception...who would that be?😉

#Pune is #foodie city. Cosmos presented typical #Maharashtra ‘Ian cuisine; thaali in a dining hall.❤️💕
Shreyas ( family fav. Went w/ बाबा on his birthday ). Modern ambience.
Asha: Vintage charm…
Both located in #DeccanGymkhana area.
Revati Dining #Kothrud. No frills simple modern vibe.
Your favorite?

That #SanFran trip was adhoc.
Currently in #Arctic / #Polar wilderness to experience #AuroraBorealis / #NorthernLights.
Prognosis: not looking good.☹️
Cloudy skies. Bitter cold. Snow capped mountains. Kp score of 2.
#cosmos is like “you know who”…: absolutely no love for me.

To citizens of the USA:
how do you suggest the illegal immigration issue be resolved?

Everybody knows the issue is real. It is almost humanitarian crisis. Genuinely nice & hard working immigrants + their kids are suffering. Both the sides have valid argument.

The issue needs humanitarian solution.
