"Launched in Japan in December 1994, the PlayStation finally hit these shores a year later in September 1995. I was only an impressionable kid at the time but still remember my dad coming home with a curious rectangular box made of grey plastic. I was immediately drawn to that start-up sound – a futuristic low-bass rumble followed by something that sounded like a crystal ball shattering all over the carpet."
"As mentioned above, the N64 was home to a lot of classics and games that literally changed the direction of their franchises, but it was also home to a lot of lesser-known titles that bring out my nostalgia. Glover, Snowboard Kids, Toy Story 2, that weird South Park snowball-fight game, and so many more. One of my favorite things about the N64 is that it had something to offer for everyone, even outside of the classics we all know and love. With the console being home to so many games, each person who played it is sure to have a set of their own, personal classics that fit right in with the more well-known games of yesteryear."
Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
