Ohh...Humm!!

So we see that even kareena kapoor gets "Smita Patil" award for her OUTSTANDING contribution to hindi cinema. Don't know hat that means but only thing i could think of when i read this feature was that ...

"There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unkowns. That is to say, there are things we know we don't know. But, there are also unknown unknowns. These are things we don't know we don't know. " -Donald Rumsfield

This is life....!!

Life with Girlfriend

Hey all

in one of my earlier post we discussed life without girlfriend. I thought over it again and again and finally discovered something different ideology.

1. You cant stare at anyother girl bcos u don't need to..( wise ppl understand it)

2. You don't spend money on her you invest money in her..(thank god i went to mgmt school to learn all this)

3. You may get boring results in ur board papers/ performance appraisals and you always have a shoulder to lean upon..:)

4. With her you need to bear emotional blackmailing anyway what is life without a pinch of emotions

5. No need to care about her dumping you, you can always have another better prospect. Keep exploring ..!

6. A mix of hot and cold (with and without respectively)may make your life cocktail...That's really 'hot n cool'

7. Never have wait for her phone call, try new ideas to talk to her

8. Someone else can decide 'right' and 'wrong' for you so you don't have to waste time on petty things

9. If girlfriend gets possessive it means she really loves you and that is pretty rare in this cruel world so you can feel lucky

10. You can ask her to buy gifts for your mom and dad and she will be happy to do that (ideally she should )

11. No need to waste paper to write love letter..grow up guys and just use IM or Gtalk instead

12. You have less friends so you can effectively utilize your limited (24 hrs) time

13. You don't have to see boring love stories, instead you can see her (not a bad idea after all)

14. You wont have anybody else to tell lies to, you can say it all to her only and she will always forgive you and finally u still go to heaven to be with beautiful angels there

15. You will feel proud to have a special friend and enjoy envy of major chunk of population

16. You can have good night dream, she being there with you ..pretty romantic..Isn't it?

17. Sometimes you love her nonstop nonsense

18. You better try to drown in her pool of tears, atleast you get to learn swimming..hahaha

19. No tension of not having girlfriend

20. you can be urself with her

21. You don't have to make cold call to search for a girlfriend so infact you save money..(makes economic sense..!!)

So go and try to find one...!!!

The FountainHead

This is the title of the book i m presently reading. i am such an otiose creature to say sthg abt this classic but even then i felt like writing abt the few pages i have gone through.

Such an engrossing book right from the first page where our protagonist thinks over. I personally like the character of Howard Roark who follows himself and not what other tell him to do and what traditions have been. But is it really possible, i mean practical or realistic existence of such character.

Take our own lives for example, our careers are more or less forced upon us. Something that our parents want us to be or result of peer pressure or sthg else. How many of us can actually boast of careers that they love? Exceptions apart, count will be very few.

Will definitely talk about the book more when i am done with it.

Movie Time

Sunday evening was as usual movie time and on this occassion it was " The FASt and the Furious: Tokyo Drift".

Zooming machines, hot girls, some action, thrill and thats about this movie. But there are moments when you experience the thrill of speed and it works. Nice watchable movie. Light dialogues gell with the script and tight editing.

Best line i liked was when Han says "Life's simple, you make choices and you don't look back".

Also loved beautiful lady "Nathalie Kelley" . Man....!! She has got a killer smile. watch her!

Lucas black is not bad as Shwan. You can feel his passion for cars. Probably in i wont ever see such cars so can just enjoy them in movies as of now. That is some solace but also adds to the aspiration/ desperation to get to see such life. Plz god just once in my life i want to live like that. Just like following conversation between the leading pair of the movie.

Shawn Boswell: The day I got my license is the day I got my first speeding ticket. Day after that I won my first race, I beat this rich kid by three lengths. I got to admit it felt good. It felt like
Neela: Like everything else just disappears
Shawn Boswell: No past and no future
Neela: No problems just the moment

Just give me a chance god.!!!

Living Alone: Life without Girlfriend

Rare Outing : Part 1

Date: 20 August 2006

Place: Sardar Sarovar Dam. Popularly known as Narmada Dam famous for many things including court cases pending regarding the increase in height of dam, aamir khan's role and subsequent banning of his films in gujarat, medha patkar's struggle to get proper rehabilitation for people relocated and many more things.

I also got a chance to see the place myself, thanks to the visit organized my company. Begin a creature with unusual inclination towards wandering (sometimes I feel why I wasn't born a Siberian bird who travels to different part of globe depending on the season). Any way cant do anything about that now so I usually look for any opportunity that may satisfy my unfulfilled aspiration to wander.

Just for information, I wear spectacles ( as you don't see them in my pic). and they say that I look good in them. But for long I had a hidden desire to get rid of specs and do promotional shoot for Fastrack eye wear just like John Abraham ( no need to laugh, I know my limits).

So as the things stand today, second wish cant be realized but science & technology has given ample opportunity to people like me. We can wear contact lenses. But for me the case is little more complicated, I look good in everything I wear and even without wearing anything (don't assume anything wild, here I am referring to specs and goggles) and I have got a proof of my argument, count the number of girls who like me with specs and without them.

So finally I decided to wear lenses and goggles on the day of our visit to Narmada Dam. Again twist in the tail, the wilder side of my character kept on goading me to be my usual self. Give up formal wear and put on something that reflects your true character. So respecting my inner voice, I did just that and got a T and non matching denim jeans.

As I stepped on the bus, I could see the questioning eyes of my colleagues after seeing me in my new avatar(for them new). I could feel them saying that you looks such an idiot in that and without your specs you look a different creature. That's why people say that beauty lies in the eyes of beholder.

More about the trip in next post..

It happens more often in India!!

This picture was taken on 24 August, 2006 near supreme court of India when some medical students were protesting against the proposed unlawful, cast based reservation. What does this picture tells you?

For me it reminds that i am living in a country where my cast decides about my future. i may be a brilliant minded student but another person by the virtue of his so called reserved cast will be getting all the privileges. I have to fight for my right to live but my fellow indian will be given preference because he belongs to a particular cast.

Isnt it ridiculous? For me it is !!!

There should not be any hard feelings about the things this blog talks. They are just personal opinions on a particular subject matter under consideration.

What do you call the ruling people who doesnt even hesitate opening water cannons or firing tear gas shells on students protesting against the proposed breach of their fundamental right to play on a fair ground. No political party will say a single word against this "quota thing". Reason is that they will lose votes of that "Particular Community" and the ruling party sponsoring this bill will get all the votes.

This vote based politics is leading our beautiful country to a situation of worst despair, where your birth in a particular community is enough to gurantee a successful career.

I dont want to argue against the basic objective of reservation to some deserving classes but the point here is "who is deserving". A family whose last three generations are IAS, does that deserve reservation. A sane common sense should say NO. But our respected politicians will say YES.

Hell....!!!!

Makers of constitution introduced this reservation system for greater good of society but now it is merely a tool in the hands of few blood sucking paracites who survive on others lives and in the end give some ridiculous baseless arguments for their selfish deeds.

Day is not far when you will have reservation in sports, may be army, may be even some day you find few white clad people sponsoring a bill to make certain percentage marriages in one community with another community...after all it is for common good.!!!

Things get obnoxiously ugly when i see the front page of newspaper and find pictures of water cannon being used on students..


May god help me this country!!!

KANK

Hey guys

Have you seen KANK yet? if not then just an advice please prepare in advance to see this one. Remember that it is a four hour long typical melodramatic ride and you will feel losing some part of your life.

• Take with you somethings to wipe your tears if you like KJ brand of movies.
• Take a break after one hour else your backbone will fight with you later when u reach home.
• You will also need something to eat atleast twice in between and
• If you are gonna married in recent future then this one is highly unrecommended
• Finally if you are a coffee addict then be prepared you are gonna see SRK sipping from starbucks cup all the time.

Watching movie alone is an experience in itself. You can concentrate more on the movie then your girlfriend sitting besides you (it is debateable as some like to look around more for better options when watching movie alone). Anyway back to the movie, i found it very different (dont want to use exact negative word as it may hurt the business of movie considering the number of viewers i have on my blog..:) hey stop laughing)

Movie has some good cinematography and i dont mean that is the only good thing about movie. It also has some very melkodious music ( one song resmebles one from sufi band, again its my observation). Junior B looks good and i found both the actresses laden with fair glow cosmetic products. I dont knwo may be its the trend now a days. SRk is decent and overall it was a long enriching expereince watching KANK. One thing i was looking for during entire four hours was the story and consistency and i found some hugh vallies (sorry just used in place of gaps) in the script.

I feel like i am older after watching the movie anyway happy viewing..!!

Right to Information Act

There are my personal views and i don't expect any expert comments about them!

The day when RTI act was passed i was pleasantly surprised. Reason is very simple "How can any sane politician give up its privilege to do anything and get away with it?". "How can any babu (government employee) give up its privilege to no to do anything and get away with it?"
RTI act, if at all used and allowed to be used, does the same. It will make politicians accountable for their deeds by being asked about virtually everything relevant and they have to do that. Just imagine that you can ask any babu, why your file didn't move? or why your task took too much time? Or simply imagine a politician giving information about a government contract being given in past.

I imagined all this and felt happy that finally we may be approaching true democracy. But alas..!!!

My happiness was short lived and my apprehensions were correct. No sane politician can allow this to happen. No sane babu will allow this happen. Finally they will do the same with RTI act what they did to "Office of Profit" bill. Mutilate it to suit their own requirements and still be under the garb of being alleging to the law.

Recent actions of this government has further strengthened my opinion that we are living in a pseudo-democracy, where u don't have any access to virtually anything.

Let this time government not do what it intends to !
Let for once be together and fight for a just cause !
Lets do something about it....We wont let our right been taken away by a few white clad humans..!!

Let the truth prevail.....
