This is my fourth and by far the shortest outing as an Author.
Delhi Metro has reduced my everyday commute time of roughly an hour and a half on my Royal Enfield Thunder Bird to merely fourty five minutes. So, this book is my ode to DMRC.
These fourty five minutes are not just minutes for me, they are a gateway to my creative side. I can write better when I am in the Metro.
A typical Metro journey is not just a journey

These fourty five minutes are not just minutes for me, they are a gateway to my creative side. I can write better when I am in the Metro.
A typical Metro journey is not just a journey for me, it’s a whirlwind adventure for me where my mind captures everything I see and hear and translates it into a fun version, The ‘JAZ version’. Call it a curse or a gift or you might even call it creepy, but my sense of observation has always been of the highest level and my imagination knows no boundaries and toping it all the trainer-keeda (A Bug; as in noun) in me keeps converting these daily observations into training-worthy case studies.
The Metro-Maniac Chronicles is my version of different kinds of people I have encountered in the Metro and their mirror kinds in a typical workplace.
From the Author of 'Version 1 1/2' comes 'Diary from Heaven', story of ‘Arun’ and his struggle with addiction. Arun was a typical Indian boy, with big dreams. Music was his life; he was always hooked on. You could call him an ‘Eternal Junkie’ because if he was not high on drugs or alcohol, he was always lost in his high-speed thoughts.

From the Author of 'Version 1 1/2' comes 'Diary from Heaven', story of ‘Arun’ and his struggle with addiction. Arun was a typical Indian boy, with big dreams. Music was his life; he was always hooked on. You could call him an ‘Eternal Junkie’ because if he was not high on drugs or alcohol, he was always lost in his high-speed thoughts. He always said that he could not control his thoughts and that his brain was like a ‘Railway Track’ on which the ‘Bullet Train’ of his thoughts ran uncontrolled... This is his story.

VERSION ONE AND A HALF (VERSION 1 ½)
“Have no fear of perfection, you’ll never reach it” - Salvador Dali QUITTING was the easiest option. But, how far could I run, was the question echoing my mind all the time? I did the usual jazz of meeting experts and seeking advice and solutions. On the way, I also met many people giving out free advice as well. I explored other ways too, but none seemed to work. So, in search of a solution to my problem (s), I started looking within me and found peace in my childhood memories. Using childhood memories as an ‘anchor’, I have tried to introspect and use the result to work at reinventing self into ‘Version 1 ½’. This book is my naive attempt to searching for happiness and solutions from within before seeking someone else’s help. It’s about changing self rather than trying to change others. Trust me self-help is the best form of support you can get it does wonders to your confidence. I have used my memories from the ’80s for this, see what get’s you going...
