Given the impending elections in certain parts of the country, the people of the country are polarised about who they support. Each side makes strong arguments in favor of their own candidate and their own factions. While the internet continues to argue over who is better suited to lead the people, representatives of these two 'opposite' factions q…

Recently, a few cities across the country faced a shortage of banknotes in ATMS, which led to worries among the general populace. This situation was soon resolved but not without certain concerns, it would seem. Shortly after, some ATMs in some cities spewed out fake INR 500 notes that were marked with "Churan Lable" (sic) and 'issued' by the Child…

In case you haven't realized, we are looking at an impending shortage of candles in the country... With the electricity situation the way it usually is in the summers, candles are a de facto necessity for many families in the country. But wait, there's more! These recent candle-marches have imposed an additional demand in a market with already limi…

A few years ago, when the life of a young, budding physiotherapist was snuffed out, we - the people of India - promised each other that this wouldn't happen again. That history wouldn't repeat itself. But history did repeat itself. In Unnao. In Kathua. Did we not learn? Are we not bothered? If we aren't bothered, then the fact that it doesn't bothe…

(Apologies for borrowing from a popular series of commercials, but it fits the situation perfectly, don't you think?) There has been a spate of hunger-strikes across the country, you might have heard... Interestingly, the people sitting in these strikes are the very ones who can solve the situation. So, why are they sitting on strike? Shrikant trie…

It took twenty years for the justice system to deliver a verdict on the Blackbuck poaching case and the verdict held Salman "Bhaijaan" Khan guilty.

Here's Shrikant's take on the whole saga... #Sa…

The Chief Minister's Office of Maharashtra was recently rocked by allegations that they were consuming more than 18500 cups of chai, everyday.

In the age of #CloudComputing, when it #leaks, it pours... Or at least, that's what we have witnessed over the last few weeks.

We've heard the old adage, "Only a diamond cuts a diamond." It seems to have been taken in a bizarrely literal sense by people in UP who decided to burn 500 quintals of mango-wood, to appease gods and invoke their help in curbing pollution in the state... Yeah, we're (kinda) speechless, too... #SahiBoltaShrikant #RJShrikant #Radio #MH935 #RedFM #Pu…

Showboating in sport is as old as the concept of sports itself. Athletes around the world often employ uniquely bizarre celebratory 'dances' to convey their joy. The #NaginDance ritual is one such example. However, judging by recent events, the Nagin-dance by a Bangladeshi cricketer probably was a step too far, according to the Sri Lankan cricket t…

A bunch of farmers marched into Mumbai, with the intent to present the government their demands. They could have marched during the day and attracted all the attention they wanted but they chose to march in the night. Why? So that the students appearing for exams could sleep in peace knowing the roads wouldn't be blocked the next day. If only all o…

So, it turns out that our domestic cricketers (you know, Ranji trophy, etc? Yeah, those...) are still yet to receive the money that the BCCI is supposed to pay them. From what I hear, it is quite a good chunk of change and a large portion of the player's incomes... Strange, wasn't there something in the news about the BCCI approving a pay-raise for…

When the news of Sridevi-ji's passing broke, almost everyone was shocked. The shock soon gave way to doubt and speculation and from that point on, things took a weird, even ugly, turn. The news coverage around her demise has been quite shocking, to be honest. This "Sahi Bolta Hai!" is aimed at all those people who seem to have forgotten the most im…

First it was 9000 crores. Then another came along, and raised the stakes to 11000 crores. Will the next one raise the bar even further? Will this become a pattern in the future? When and where does this end? So many questions, so few answers... :( #SahiBoltaShrikant #RJShrikant #Radio #MH935 #RedFM #Pune #BajaateRaho…

Today, i.e. the 14th of February, is celebrated as the day of love all across the world. However, spreading love seems to be becoming more and more difficult with each passing year. With so many obstacles in its way, will love still manage to conquer all? Or will the cruel hand of fiscal prudence ruthlessly end up clipping love's fragile wings? #Sa…

The internet never ceases to amaze us. This time, it was in the form of Priya Prakash Varrier, a Malayalam movie actress, who went viral thanks to a scene in her upcoming movie, 'Oru Adaar Love'.

Every year, when the #UnionBudget 2018 rolls around, a bunch of (mostly self-proclaimed) experts spring up out of nowhere. This year, Shrikant joins the growing number of (such self-proclaimed) experts and attempts to break down the budget by comparing it to the ONE topic everyone can understand: DATING. #SahiBoltaShrikant #RJShrikant #Radio #MH935…

So, every year our forces exchange sweets with their counterparts at the Wagah border as a gesture of goodwill. This year, however, due to tensions along the LoC, this gesture was (understandably) cancelled.

A lot of engineers and post-graduates are applying for peon-level vacancies in various government departments, making us scratch our head and wonder why... Are we producing too many engineers?

...so that the inmates can wash them and wash away their sins. :/ This is troubling. If washing cows is the currency to absolve oneself of their sins, then what is the exchange rate? Do misdemeanors 'cost' less than felonies? What about grand larceny? And scams? How does one 'account' for scams? Can one make a 'payments' in advance? #SahiBoltaShrik…

A minister in Goa recently said that he doesn't want 'cheapskate' tourists (read: locals, Indians) visiting his state because they don't spend much. He wants people to perceive Goa as a premium destination and, therefore, would like more foreign tourists instead.

Virushka got married secretly in Italy.

A meme recently trended on the internet, something to do with ringing the doorbells of 'aunties'. It was shameful, misogynistic, and jaw-droppingly sexist.

A school teacher in Chembur, wanting to inculcate the habit if saving money in his students, got them all zero-balance accounts. The bank converted them into MAB accounts shortly after, and penalized the students for not maintaining minimum balance, by deducting their balance. Is that why they aren't worried about the large loans and NPAs on their …

"...have you any wool?" went the nursery rhyme. However, this nursery rhyme has nothing to do with the topic of this little ditty!

Chammak Challo. Calling a woman "Chammak Challo" can get you jailed - if only for a day. At least, that's what happened with this case in Thane, Mumbai.

A recent incident in Pune, where people were duped by a conman posing an an official of the PMC, sent shockwaves through the establishment.
