When foreign investors say, 'India is impossible to define', what they mean is India is impossible to reconcile..

What baffles people living in uniform societies is how we treat what they would consider an insane thing as a normal thing..

They can't understand a country where a 1 crore BMW SUV sits calmly in traffic next to a 2-wheeler with two people riding pillion without helmets, one holding a giant glass mirror and the other a goat..
