Escaping into the Music... new year new hopes old dreams. Happy New Year 2011 !

I'm terribly missing today

The canal where we used to go cycling and sit for hours and hours every evening..
Talyachi pari...jithe kadhi kadhi sandhyakali mi jaycho...aani bajula asalele vachanalaya..
And the steps of that stadium where group of friends use to sit and giggle untill it's dark.

Aaj sarv kahi aahe je tevha mublak navhte, pan ya jaga aaj harvalya aahet...
chyaa...kahi milvanysathi kahi kimmat mojavi lagtech...hech khare.

Karoge yaad toh har baat ...

Inn ........ ki koi kimat na hogi,
na jahan bhar ki khushiya na dildaro ki sohbat hogi..
kuch mitti ke ghado me pyaas ta umr hogi..
Karoge yaad toh har baat ...

pal sare beet jayenge,
main  main na rahunga
tum tum na rahogi..
kisi waqt kisi mod paar
zindagi yeh sawal puchegi,
kya main isi tarah zakhmi hoti rahungi?
Karoge yaad toh har baat ...

kuch hasin palo ki kimat yeh zindagi
hasne muskarane ke sud ke sath,
aur kitno salo tak yeh karz chukau...
isi hisab me zindagi gujar jayegiKaroge yaad toh har baat ...

Now What?

Being there done that.

Is this the story of us all.
Have I made it? Have I reached the sky, touched the stars and rocketed to Mars?
Have I lived?  Being there done that.

How you measure me? tell me..
You count my successes, when I fail, you say the boy will rise up he has got guts.
What if I don't rise up. You say my approach is wrong. You say I have got Attitude.

What if I would have never showed up to you. I would have still existed somewhere.

I have not mate all the living buddies still they exist allover and live there dreams.
What I am made up of? what keeps me going?

It doesn't make any difference to me whether you know me or whether I know you.
What's the need? You were living your way and I was on my way.
Then why I mate you?

No matter, we mate.
Time is all I have to give to you. If I am giving it to you you have become part of my life.
What I received, when I was born is -Life.
That's my most precious attribute. Without that I am nothing.
It's a count of breaths plotted against time. Breaths on X and Time on Y.
Time is infinite since the beginning of universe, but the breaths that are going to be plotted against it are limited. So the time that we have is most, "The most" valuable thing I or you have.
Your existence on this planet was of no importance to me until, I catch your few breaths.
The breaths you spend while talking to me, thinking about me and when you missed me.
I have taken "The most" valuable thing from you, your time.

It doesnt matter to me, how many people are born and died. How many of them gave me there time?
How many of them think they shouldn't have given? How many of them wants to willfully spent there time with me. - That's all that matter to me. In every generation, the experiences are same. Be it 200B.C, 2010, or 3010. Nothing will ever change. Even after Thousand years the same things will be repeated. Technology has progressed, life is better but still the Basics are same.

As a kid I never thought of the things I am doing now. But I am doing it coz I am no exception. and nobody really is. What makes me wonder more is, how exactly the things fall in place. Like a Mumbai local train, Being there you get pushed in , Being there you get pushed out. Steering the life's wheel is all what we do.

Happy BirthDay !

Ye Dooriyan...

Kuch le gayi hai apne sath,
kuch chod gayi hai mere pass, ye dooriyan....
ek clear si subah, na badal na thand na hawa ka ekbhi zhonka.
mano jaise ruk gayi ho ghadi ki suyiya bhi ..
shanti charo taraf itni, ki sunai de sirf dhadkan aur sanso ki chehal-pehal.
Sanse toh chal rahi hai...lekin ghadi ruk gayi hai.
Ye dooriyan badh rahi hai, ya kam ho rahi hai!

Kuch din pehle ki baat hai,
jaane pehchane raste se gujarate waqt,
kisi anjani awaaj ne jor se pukara,
kuch mahino pehle yaha se koi gujarata tha, kaha hai woh?
bina kuch bole jawab mil gaya uss awaaj ko ,
udhar bhi koi rasta shayad aisehi namkin ho raha hai.
waha se yaha tak, na baat na mulakat ho rahi ha.
Ye dooriyan badh rahi hai, ya kam ho rahi hai!

kabhi zindagi lekar gayi kahi,
shayad yeh pata nahi tha meri dor bandi thi kahi.
woh hasi ab hasati nahi, chidhati hai, aur puchti hai
kya tum apna paoge kisiko kabhi?
har khwab ab likhe huye pate par hi aata hai..
chahe aankhe band ho ya ho suraj sar pe.
yeh itna faasla hai ki suraj bhi tai nahi kar pata,
samaz me nahi aata,
Ye dooriyan badh rahi hai, ya kam ho rahi hai!

Erase me from your memory: --- A dialogue from  movie Endhiran.

Multidimensional...truly sensational dialogue. Doesn't know how on earth sometimes two "humans" exchange this dialogue in real life. "machines" indeed !

No hard feelings...

Feelings -it's a bullshit word.

When you feel something, you put yourself in danger.
Decisions come second.
Feelings mess up the sky with dark and white clouds. No clear rainbow appears in such sky.
Feelings trap the energy, sometimes positive sometimes negative.
Here I'm not pretending all is fine. Things have gone terribly wrong.
Confession will only make way for the trapped energy. Release it.
Who was I? What I am doing now? What will I do?

The very old people always give a blessing, "Be as old as me, as soon possible"... Whenever I visited my village placeI got this blessing (??) several times. My grandma who is almost 87 now, always says like that. I may be 20 or something when I first time felt someting after listening this. I did not understood why this kind of blessing.? I looked at her old wrinkled face and the weak body. Looking at her I felt she could have blessed me to stay young forever, then why this kind of blessing.. to pray for someone to age early?

I was studying then, and now I'm a so called professional. Not everything, but have seen life upto some extent. Now when I think about that blessing "Be as old as me, as soon possible"... It has started making sense to me. I ask myself this question... Would it be possible for me to last atleast till 87 years? phewww.. the answer comes loudly echoying back.. HELL NO.

The kind of life I'm living has no time to think about life. Fat is depositing at exponential rate, pressure both work & blood is increasing every day. Lighter moments have become rarer too. I am exposed to so many chemicals that I dont even care to know about. New people are making there own spaces in my life and some are leaving big voids not to be filled anythime or by anybody.  It's not possible to be a mute witness. Amidst all these happenings ... Feelings...Feelings are constantly bothering me. Feelings -It's a bulllshit word.

This surrounding world is still a strange place. 

Shaky, disturbed, unfaithful, traitor, unjust, misguiding, unforgiving,  pretentious, liers.

Since I opened the eyes

It's a stranger world....

Is this is what we intend to accept?

Where are the family values. ??? Is there any such thing considered at all, after seeing this.

Good for nothing(except a laugh in awe when saw it first).
Marketing gone below its standard. Creativity at the cost of respect is Unhealthy. Damn, It should be banned !

Bye Bye IPL

It seeems the match was fixed.. Atleast some players from MI have done it. The way Rayudu played and resisted pollard to take a double says it all.

Stop this nonsense IPL. IPL is spoiling cricket culture in a big way. It's no more a gentlemens game. It's a gamblers, corrupt politician, wealthy bussinessmens and fool spectaters game...

Happy BirthDay Sachin !

Many Many Happy Returns of the Day....

Human Clock

Human Clocks. Ticking until they dissolve.
When wishes are not fulfilled or things have not come in your way, is there still a meaning to live on?
Isn't it plain compromise?

I don't know may be I'm searching for an excuse.

The clock ticks and man progresses in time, whether he really wants to or not isnt considered and it's also beyond control.
Day ticks, in human clock in same intervals.
But with different pace... when happy they tick faster, when sad they drag.

Reflecting upon changes is human behavior, adjusting and adapting is
inherent in human nature.
For survival that is utmost important, but we aren't rare or even close to being extinct.
In primal days it was a need to live in society, but it wasnt expected that society will decide how you should live.
Where is the individualism?

I don't know may be I'm searching for an excuse to differ.

Timed ...

Nokia E72.... Blackberry days are over.

This one from nokia works like a pro. Yes it is a pro in its class. After loosing my 3120 classic' now im setteled with this E72.. I was always a critic of these qwerty keybord based phones..like Sachin use to be disinterested in T20 in its intial phase... As he is now enjoying playing T20... So does im enjoying the full keyboard benefits of E72 writting this blog from the device..typing is much easier than expected.

Shortly i will write a full fledged review...as induction session is in progress now.....

Ciao..

From a sweet cozy comfortable den, to a vast crowded corporate jungle...

Chennai Blogger :-)

It has become a habit to start writting if get freeee time waiting for train or plane.
Some 4 years back it was Chennai Airport from where it started and now its Central...
And Chennai is hot favorite place because whenever I visit places  here I get a reason to write some or other thing. Sharp 4 O'clock exam finished and immediately hit the beach near.. Besant nagar.. sitting beside sea is always fulfilling.

After  6pm thought of coming back to guest house but on the way near Mylapore railway station (Tirumailai) saw the same temple that I just glanced  through fence on the arrival day first morning when I got down from bus. Its "Kapaleeswarar Temple"...

It was looking more beautiful because of the lighting and reflection in lake. Had lot time for train so decided to visit there.
Believe me this temple is next to Tirupathi or Madurai temple.
Ancient architecture and inside there are several several ...many small statues all standing in a row.. may be tamil brahmins priests..( w.ref from wiki...they are Nayanars : Shaivite devotional poets from all classes of society.
Mesmerising experience...
Had to peacefully sit there to listen to pure music played by local/temple musicians.
Got up only at 8pm from there... had nice time.

Then rushed to Chennai central .. again its thrill to use local transport...
Got into wrong Bus ....
Got down at Chetpet ...
Walked a lot with heavy luggage and climbed up&down many stairs to get to Chetpet railway station..
Missed two locals..
Got the third local to Chennai central... 9:30 pm.
And NOW... got enough time till 11:00pm to write this Blog and upload all the pics.

Summer Trip to Chennai !!!

We Don't Need No Education...

Appu Guest House, Near Sanskrit College, Mylapore, Chennai.

This is third time I am staying here... 

The ultimate question is whether I will make it??? Today its CSK Vs DD ... and being in Chennai its almost mandatory to watch Chennai match.. Exam 2moro at 10am... I know the result already but still its in blood to fight till last moment. Hope that the paper setters are also enjoying IPL matches and have set the papers lazily... and also hope that soon after exam professors check the papers when there favorite team is winning IPL match. Then I can say its justified to watch today's match. (and with this waiver I'm taking the oath to be away from internet and blogging and similar sort of activities for next 2 days.. thankfully I also haven't got my camera with me this time otherwise in morning only saw a beautiful lake and temple near Mylapore railway station .. tempted but ok..next time I will definitely take pics of that beautiful place. ) Ciao...

Second cool morning at Bangalore...

Circular reference ...
10-Mar-07: Today... writting this blog early in the morning 7:00AM
15-Mar-10: Today... writting this blog early in the morning 7:00AM


These two blogs have a distinction  coz they are written at 7:00 AM ... Otherwise I don't even brush my teeth at 7 AM :-)
Three years back when I came to Bengaluru, never expected that I will be writting another blog at 7AM. But today morning I got up at 4:30 AM .. another record at Bangalore. Evenmore went out to have a cup of tea, and there ..yes there I saw people rushing to go to there work. I smiled. because I needn't have to rush and go anywhere today. That's why the morning appeared to be pretty cool. 

Relieving Weekend

Day after day and years after year .. memories fade, terabytes of data archived, prices paid and lessons learnt and forgotten too, choices made right or wrong, choices lived and finally standing bare alone... two empty hands.

Life keeps on moving from here to there to somewhere to eternity.

Hell will never get better.

Who the f*** said Marriages are made in Heaven??
Yes, they may have been sort of decided in heaven but they get arranged down rite here. Twisting and turning the natural tides... enough for the ppl in love to forget and move on. No one gets understood without loosing one side. This or That. Where's freedom to live or Is it the cost to be paid for getting this life?  Who cares for love, who cares for a heart..own or others.
It's all bloody bussiness all around. I hv lost all the faith in this shit drama of marriages...

Why "Forrest Gump" is Miles Ahead...

 

This is just because one renowned reviewer in India compared Shah Rukh Khan starrer MNIK with movie "Forrest Gump" (No personal dislike for SRK).

 

Forrest Gump... The simple story of a simpleton’s life. At the end of the film, you see few characters firmly standing in your memories. Mama, Jenny, Lieutenant Dan, Bubba Gump, and Forrest. Forrest’s life unfolds through lives of these characters as well. Whatever he had done is for them. That makes him simple yet affectionate lovable Forrest. Forrest never made a statement, he never did anything for himself, and he never had a sense of doing with him, HE JUST DID. That keeps the movie miles ahead of MNIK.

He ran because he felt like running… and this has kept him miles ahead of others…

Happy V-Day

Make Love .No War.... But the volatile situation... Finish it up once for all. ready to die in a War than to die everyday..in bakery,... on bus stands, at cinema halls..

I love freedom.... eternal..........

We are bound with our limits. Some are Free.

When someone crosses or denies limits, someone says the law is broken, customs are denied. Who decided laws and customs?

We have knit such a foolish mess around us by name of customs that it went unnoticed when it grabbed us.

And we keep screaming I would have done this... I would have done that… who the fuck stopped you?

It’s your well knitted mess that you need to cut across. One has to do this to live peacefully.

It’s understood, loved ones & family members will not accept …they will get hurt… but it’s my life. I have the right to live the way I want.

I shouldn’t surrender the meaning of my existence for someone’s happiness to save face from society.

 

 

Khushi

Aie khuda... ek dil baat kehni thi tumse..

Dil ko deni hai khushi toh aisi de ...ki uske aas pass koi aasu ka katra naa ho..

Agar deni hai ek hasin jindagi toh dua kabool kar, apno se juda na karoge kabhi...

apno ko bhula kar jahan ki khushiyo se mat bhar mere daman ko..

agar itni hi chahat hai muzhse, toh mere mukammal safar ka sathi ada kar muzhe..

Is it Maktub?..or Is it Choices you make becomes your destiny?

Life has been changed. The biggest advantage of living is the living itself.
The more I live, the more I am getting solved and still puzzled like hell. It's my life and it's the life of friends shaping up that makes me think. One life is like one experience or rather a living experiment going on. My life too is an experiment. I am no different than anyone else. Only thing that makes me different at this moment is, Im taking some time out from this experiment to look at it. This may be part of my experiment,and I don't know this fact; but it certainly has an impact on altering the course of my own experiment.

I see people loving each other, I see them getting married to somebody else. Was it destined? or Was it because of there unability to voice there feelings?
Why on earth such painful things happen?  You may start loving the person who comes next in your life--BUT what about the unfinished experiment of love that you left behind you. Dont you think it will someday fire back. Even if it doesnt fire back, dont you feel you have burnt your heart before moving forward?

No one is able to forsee the future but is it really necessarily to punish your present for a better One? Im not going to stop today. Why the hell life is so difficult in this country... Whose marrying whom? The girl and the boy or there families? And what about the feelings you shared with that special someone in your life?

It's just about finishing the duty of getting your daughter married to someone of your status, someone of your daughters status, and somone who belongs to a family of same caste. The sameness kills. Why on earth these parents don't understand what friends can understand? Yes one clean look into the eyes of your loved one's and you get to know what's in there heart. Friends, they know you from just few years but still they can make out, what about your parents, they know you from your birth.  Why do they turn a blind eye to your heart? It's for the sake of saving there face. It's for the sake of living in this society. Yes we are raised from childhood, imbibing the same thing... don't get close to a person of opposite sex coz someday you are going to get married to someone of there choice. Do hell with this custom of arranged marriages. Who said marriages are made in heaven? No they are not, they are arranged.
