Rise of the Heros and fall of the Mighty

That was A MONDAY EVENING............. I have always hated MONDAY as that is the first day of the week and that also coaxed me to start up a commuity on orkut called I HATE MONDAY MORNING...(And surprisingly it already has 500+ members ... reiterating the fact that s many ppl believein this maxim)....But this was no ordinary day.. it was MONDAY the 24th ... The first final of T20 The first WC final between India and Pak.... and The firstWC final where the average age of the Indian players was less than 24 years... India has the reputation of defeating pakis in all the WC matches and the way they thrashed the 2 greatest teams -SA and Mighty Australia..It was amazing so a lil of hope was somewhere in my heart... We Indians are Myrimidons of Cricket and I was no different ... I folowed cricket .. although never knew the naunces and the technicalities but still loved the game ... Although I stopped watching the match when India lost so badly in 2003 finals against Australia and then my ide...

AAG and SHOLAY

PENURY of MIND is what may be offered by the Genius. I have been an ardent fan of RGV ... and the unconventional names that he uses for his Movies..... Who would dare to name the movie as D or Abb Takk Chappan or BHOOT... but he does and that justifies the script, only to make us believe that this factory works on scripts and not just masala... 'Kitne aadmi the', any guesses for the name of the movie...... Yes it is in fact SHOLAY the blockbuster of 70's that still have takers like me who can watch the movie several number of times..... In his interviews several times Mr Amitabh bacchan has expressed his interest for playing Gabbar Singh.. And not everyones dreams become reality.... Although this doesnt hold good for a certain AB....All his wishes come true..Lucky man indeed.. So The stage was all set for the remake of the movie-Sholay and in several interviews that i have seen RGV has this to say- This is my interpretaton of the classic.. Hmmm.... Petrified by the reviews ...

Gone are the days

Gone are the days!!! When The school reopened in June, And we settled in our new desks and benches! When we queued up in book depot, And got our new books and notes! When we wanted two Sundays and no Mondays, Yet managed to line up daily for the morning prayers. We learnt writing with slates and pencils, and Progressed To fountain pens and ball pens and then Micro tips! When we began drawing with crayons and evolved to Color pencils and finally sketch pens! When we started calculating first with tables and then with Clarke's tables and advanced to Calculators and computers! When we chased one another in the corridors in Intervals, and returned to the classrooms Drenched in sweat! When we had lunch in classrooms, corridors, Playgrounds, under the trees and even in cycle sheds! When all the colors in the world, Decorated the campus on the Second Saturdays! When a single P.T. period in the week's Time Table, Was awaited more eagerly than the monsoons! When cri...

OUR TRICOLOR

The following is an extract from the preamble to the flag code of India as posted on the official Home Ministry website of the Indian government: The significance of the colours and the chakra in the National Flag was amply described by Dr. S. Radhakrishnan in the Constituent Assembly : Dr. S. Radhakrishnan explained - Bhagwa or the saffron colour - renunciation of disinterestedness. Our leaders must be indifferent to material gains and dedicate themselves to their work. White in the centre - Light, the path of truth to guide our conduct. Green - shows our relation to soil, our relation to the plant life here on which all other life depends. The Ashoka Wheel in the centre of the white is the wheel of the law of dharma. Truth or satya, dharma or virtue ought to be the controlling principles of those who work under this flag. Again, the wheel denotes motion. There is death in stagnation. There is life in movement. India should no more resist change, it must move and go forward. The w...

Theatre Rule: People with the seats at the furthest from the aisle arrive last. Law of C...

Auto walaahs n Blore

Today I had a terrible experience while coming to office.... Generally I use bus as the mode of transport but thats only 30 % of time almost 70% I use these Black and Yellow Autos....and yaa these autowalaahs are BADSHAAH of their territory ...I value their contribution in the society but there are also fanatics who ruin the reputation of fellow atowallahs... The METER yaa..that meter was running at 1.5 times .... Suddenly all ETHICS and MORALS started popping up and I gave him a Biig bhashan and noted the DL number and Auto number and also warned him about this and .... I gave him the moey as per his meter but he returned the extra and confessed that he has indeed tampered with the meter, I asked him to correct it .... I then thought that since I caught him atleast he agreed that he has tampered with the meter but look at the broader picture--- the IAS , IPS and politicians and yaa BUILDERS.. etc.... And I remained UNANSWERED
