Another Valentine


What a life I have. Great, indeed. Its 5 pm, Valentine’s Day, and I m lying on my bed, with probably nothing much to do. Love is in the air, I can make it out. Through the door, I can see guys getting dressed up for their D day evening. Having a clean shave, running to have a shower, well pressed shirts lying on their beds, the ones they’ve never taken out from their suitcases ever before, and I m lying on my bed! It has become difficult for my olfaction to make out whether it is Axe, Brut, Denim, or Gillette, as the rich smell of the musk and the freshness of the oceans blend together to form an irresistible smell, and I m lying on my bed…..
There are some friends who asked me whether I would like to join them this evening, but you know, I m not in a habit of becoming épine parmi les roses. It has been 22 yrs and still I have not been able to really find someone whom I can confide into. It really hurts when people call me smart and a handsome guy. The first thing they ask me is the number of girlfriends I have, it really hurts you know. I don’t know why I am in such a lamentable state, maybe I really lack something, or I do not deserve this, God knows….
I had plans of going out, hanging around with friends, but when I got up, and looked around, I could not figure out where to go or whom to go out with. So again I end up on my bed fiddling around with my cell and my lappy who, these days are becoming my best friends. I have a wallpaper celebrating Valentine’s on my lappy which will be gone soon. So I leave the clothes in my suitcase as they are, the Gillette deo as it is and confide with my two best friends……..

INDIA SHINING


Congratulation folks!!! India is shining again. You must be thinking that this guy has gone insane in this critical situation of recession but lemme tell you what- Elections speak. They do speak, if not every other day but every couple of years.
I was literally provoked to write this as soon as I got a message in my inbox- “villages to get 24 hrs electricity supply- Govt ” . Our government has yet again set out beaming its achievements in its rule. And why not, it does have some of the greatest achievements in the Indian history to boast of. No, I am not speaking of India’s spectacular win against Australia in cricket; though many Indians would rate it higher than the successful launch of Chandrayaan ( another long debated project which finally managed to shut up its critics after global acceptance). The launch of chandrayaan once again proves India’s expertise in space technology.
Moreover the inking of the Indo-US nuclear treaty in the US senate was one of the biggest achievement for the UPA government. Very less people know that this treaty will not bear any short term fruit( maybe a decade or so!!!!) but the government is banking upon the same as its bid for a second term. There may be 4 Indians in the top 10 richest people in the world, but my question is that how does it help the common Indian?
Its said that India is a complete democracy. I would rather say that India is only politically democratic. Pity on the common stupid Indian! They would again fall an easy prey and get carried away by these frivolous remarks like India Shining, India poised or the so called Feel good factor.. So I better delete this useless message from my inbox and get goin with my work……..

Emosanal attyachaar


after a long tym a came across a movie which could effect a guy's psyche psychologically. i was tired after a long day's work and couldnt get a better breezer than DEV D.This movie appealed to me since i first saw its promos being aired. the different feel of the songs and the brilliant performance by abhay was applaudable.with a pinch of drollery, and some excellent timing of emotions kept me glued to my seat. i knw there will be many who will definitely call this a sqander of time and more importantly, money but i found it more thought provoking than, u can call , entertaining. The movie lived up to my expectation and now i think abhay deol is also making his way into the so called different league of actors.
