Here nothing but "Truth"..Pays.!

-
My childhood has seen me growing up hearing episodes from Ramayana & folklore's of Harischandra's honesty. It may sound silly and little late in life to debate on virtues of being honest. If you are looking for money,fame & power in life I am sure that your 'honesty' will remain your worst hindrance. That even Mr.Tom, Mr.Dick & Mr Harry would agree. You see in a real world you need to remain manipulative, street smart and never shy away from lying. This mantra if practiced to perfection will reasonably ensure that you are adequately comfortable in spite of recession and inflation notwithstanding.
That said I am really overwhelmed to realise that the 'reality show'"Sach Ka Samna" in one of those TV channels ... pays you quite lavishly for being honest and truthful in front of the camera. Sadly you and I and all those Tom Dick & Harry cannot be a part of this reality show, since this is strictly by invitation and you can't expect an "Aam Admi" to be an invitee to any place other than the "polling Booth" and the "kumb ka Mella".!
Now it is quite amusing to find our politicians going all out to ban the show on moral grounds. It seems the questions & answers put on this show keep reminding these politicians of their own ever growing 'mis-adventures' that they so thrive on and are for 'vote sake' not able to cash it on a 'Reality Show"

An "Aam Admi" if he does not like a show, will simply switch to the next channel...but politicians will never want to do that. Instead they will keep making noise as though trying to wish away their own "Sachai Se AmnaSamna"

Let us understand that TRP is all about viewer's choice..so what's wrong if a channel carries on airing a show ..which is just two episodes old and already creating TRP waves...& what's wrong if some 'rich & famous are willing to make a 'show' of their sleezee......confessions. After all when it comes to 'Money' for some it is never 'enough' to say 'enough' and that's 'moment of truth'.....what say "Rajeev..?

    I was the youngest of the 4 siblings and the only son ,but that  never  made me precious and  pampered by the family. My father was in the army. We all  grew up in cantonment environment, hopping almost every 2 years  from one Cantonment to the other  Like from Allahabad’s Draupadi Ghat we came to Calcutta’s Fort William and  then to  Bangalore Cantonment  Bangalore was the only city where we  remained stationed for almost 5 years before getting  shifted to Delhi Cantonment in 1961, 4th of July to be precis It was the year 1959-60 and I was about 10 years old  studying in the 6th form in the Army’s  Regimental school . Around this time my  father decided to put me into “King George Military School” .This  was a ‘day’ Boarding School exclusively for Defence personnels . It is now called “Rashtriya Military School”. There was an aptitude test which I cleared but failed the written test. I was happy, a...

DE LHI Gasping!!

Delhiites have turned   indifferent to the " Toxic Air" that they breath  They have stopped bothering about the "smoke screen " that is keeping away   "Sun light"  from giving them the ray of "HOPE"  to keep their lungs "Sun Shined" . Like "AGE"  for them now  even the  AQI (Air Quality Index) has become a sheer number .They have long since stopped reacting to the AQI  shooting up. They have lost their "JOSH"" to protest for their fundamental right to breath. Delhi is the very seat of the duly elected "POWER".  of  World's largest Democracy  The "custodian" of this Democracy reside here  at   "7 LOK KALYAN"  but remain hardly visible in and around the city This  "custodian"  continues to remain the very "Most"  'Frequent Flier' of our Democracy and  the only  'STAR '  campaigner for the political party that he comes from.    Getting re-elected...

The Blessed Curse "Nostalgic flashes" !

   When you already  know a little about the  book it does create an  interest “Blessed Curse” was just that.  This book is about an  Indian middle class household  that is holding together three generations in generous harmony with all those ifs and buts about the generation gaps  The book undoubtedly is  an inspirational read  especially at a  time when the concept of   “nuclear households", remains a widely spread idea among the Millennials  It recalibrates your mind to question , debate ,accept and  celebrate every generation’s point of view  This book is the story of Jagdamba Prasad & his wife Pushpa Devi living with their son, daughter in law and grandchildren in one of the colonies of East Delhi’. The author in this book takes the reader through good, bad and ugly about each generation. The beauty is, it does not come as a bout of episodes but as “cosy chats” between the members of the family...
