The airwaves have been buzzing over the coming together of Aamir Khan & Ashutosh Gowariker after 25 years for another cricket film - this time on the historic Indo-Pak test series of 1952. We remembered telling a story on this iconic series awhile back and decided to revisit it (1)

Curly! Curly leaf parsley. Bangalore 14 April 2026 Don’t really like the flavour direction in a salad. But fantastic as an infusion. Infuse in hit water, filter, chill. Pour over ice and enjoy a zero calorie infusion during summer. Works well as a blend with a good green tea.

A cross-section of a tea plant. The fascinating branching pattern that is created by the plucking & pruning. These bushes are 30-y young. Average age of a tea plant in Nilgiris is said to be 70-y.

Glen’s are not there only in Scotland. This is the Glen scenery from Glenview, the UPASI HQ at Coonoor. Glens abound in Nilgiri’s, many forested, & many with tea gardens. Each Glen has its own microecology leading to its own tea character. Has never been studied systematically.
