Updates

I know the posts at MASALA CHAI have been getting few and far between . I apologise for this. There has been a little too much going on and I believe I lost momentum . Let's hope it has been regained.

FIRST of all , I was DELIGHTED and surprised to find this. A big thank you to the people at Live Mint for the mention. For the uninitiated , that would be the Indian Wall Street Journal. Go over and see MASALA CHAI mentioned in their top blogs post in the culture section. Or just go here.

I would also like to congratulate Graphic Artist Archan Nair . He let me know that his collab project with photographer Parris Whittingham got a mention in Kanye West's blog. That's right, KANYE WEST ! Now we all know the man has good taste , so I couldn't be happier for Archan !

Also MASALA CHAI will shortly be moving to it's own domain so in the meantime if things get a little crazy and if there are broken links or any such inconveniences and technical mishaps , please bear with me . I only aim to please :)

That is all folks. Thanks for visiting & have yourselves a great weekend!

  3. I still think you're doing a great job. I'm an internet addict always looking out for new indian artists but I can't seem to come across as many as you do. And I'm so happy you'll be having your own domain! yay for pavs!

    Nidhi: I know! They do think MC is a group blog though.

    Mira: Thanks for the kind words :) The domain thing isn't turning out to be as simple as I thought it would be!

  8. Congratulations! I rather like Mint, so this just makes my opinion of them go a few notches further up..wish they'd at least asked you about the group blog thing first though.

  9. I did find that line about the Western influences funny, though- I've always seen the art you feature as very distinctively Indian.

  10. bfh : yes I was a little confused that they didn't contact me but I'm not complaining, really. I tried to find an email address for the writer but didn't manage to, so thats that. For now at least.

    ......from nowhere!!

    congratulations on the mention. i am sure there are many other said mentions all oevr the big, world wide web.... and although i am unable to appreciate the full extend of this website (considering my relative disinterest in art) i find this blog to be ridiculously lovely visuals when i then, in high fashion pirate sense, duplicate on my desktop screens and then claim to awestruck admirers that i am a real art junkie and love finding this stuff online. ooops. hehhe.
