That was an epicness of performances!

-
Yes, finally a re-play of World Cup 1983 did happen. Our 28 years of wait gave us a performance that was spectacle of sheer outperforming best cricketing performances. "Our Men in Blue" created an epic chasing a first ever big target in the history of the World Cup. Our win yesterday was the first ever wining of World Cup by any country in their own home pitch.

We won the finals because our "Men in Blue" collected guts & grits to out perform best performances. Chasing a score of 274, we realized what a captain's knock is all about. Yesterday we saw a great team play come alive at Wankhede stadium. This team play was also witnessed by our national leaders & politicians. If at all they are able to emulate an iota of this, India can witness the Indian politics shedding away some of the muck off their sleeves.

Yesterday was an outpour of frenziness of our patriotism. As Dhoni hit that winning shot, the spontaneity of excitement and emotion that was seen in every Indian was something that rightly proves that for us our love for our India will always remain everlasting. Yesterday streets and roads and colonies across the length and breath of the peninsula was glowing & bustling in midnight celebration. It simply proves why we are incredible both as a nation and as great Indians.

Yesterday India once again won the World Cup after wining it way back in 1983. This World cup 2011 belongs to India. However the spirit of the winning belongs to "Our Men in Blue". This win is their most befitting send off to the legendary master blaster SachinTendulkar.

Hats off to you Dear Dhoni & our heartiest congratulation to your Team India. Truly that was an epicness of performances!

AFRICAN SAFARI.....a Book Review

-
Image
  "African Safari" is an intriguing title for a book that nowhere talks of  any expeditions to animal kingdom in the jungles of Africa. This book is about a cigar smoking business tycoon , a multibillion and multinational conglomerate whose business interest goes beyond his inherited empire of liquor and beer industries and spreads across industries  as diverse  as Airlines, Pharma, Paints, textiles to name a few. The media across the globe dub him as "King of good times".  "African Safari " is the story of "Rana Kapoor" the business tycoon and his business ventures in the French speaking regions of Africa, a continent that is fast emerging as world's big time growth market. The book takes us through  intricacies of clinching  business deals.  It talks about how political lobbying and networking with people in high places and bankers collaborate and become a blue print for M&A  stories. The book tells you that stories of business ventures

Giving words to my thoughts...

I  am returning to this space after 2 years and past 242 posts .It doesn't mean that I have lost my itch  for writing. I have always loved  scribbling words that give voice to the way I look at a situation, or to the way I feel about anything on the ground and under the sky. . My   view  may or may not matter  to the rest. However for me it remains a  mark of my own creativity. My creativity is more about visualizing things that  seldom see the light of the day.   Some call this  “Daydreaming” . I don't mind if people call me  a “wandering mind.” Neither I am bothered about the stigma called  “laziness” attached to it.  I see it as a tonic that energizes me  to think  beyond the realm of possibility For instance no matter how much  ever  I would have   chased my dreams  of becoming a corporate tycoon  I would never have been one simply because I would then lose the privilege and intimacy of being around with familiar and friendly faces sipping beer in crowded bar. I don't l

This Bihar election is the first major election since the Covid 19 pandamic disrupted the political calender and prompted sweeping measures for social distencing. The three Phase Bihar Poll for 243 Vidhan Sabha seats was completed on the 7th. The turnout for the poll as per media report was 58%. Today is the vote counting day. By the time the sun sets today , the dawn  of the next political regime in the State will emerge. Will this dawn usher in a new political 'don' or  the "Sarkar Raj" will continue  with  their  "All is Well " narrative for another 4 years. Will PM Modi, the over used "trump card" political campainer for NDA  be able  to push  back JDU- BJP led alliance once again into rulling Bihar for another four year terms or will he   concede defeat without playing and  crying foul.  Well whatever be the outcome of today's polling verdict, the politics of vendetta and vilifying the  poor will continue. The problem of unemployment, the
