Calling Munnabhai a "Papu"!

-


He is one of the finest actor. Perhaps the only one in the Bollywood who refused to buckle down in spite of  terrible traumas and  tragedies of  life.  Perhaps he is one of the best example of a never say die attitude. His guts and grits can be immensely motivating for persons running away from life and its realities.

His Bollywood journey has been both rocky and rocking. At a time when his professional obituary was almost being written he bounced back with "Munna Bhai MBBS".This movie became a runaway success and a cult classic.

He is one among the few in Bollywood who gets along famously with every one from  the three  Khans, to the macho Akshay and from big B to solo Govinda. His sheer presence in the movie screen has many times become reasons for the movie to create ripples at the box office. From Vastav to Khalnayak, from Aatish to Agneepeth he has always come out as a power house of superlative performance. I don't subscribe to any fan club yet I have seen almost all his movies. Many of them may not have been a paisa vasool but none were any disappointments. I have all my praise for him.

I feel he has been lucky getting away with 5 years imprisonment for his role in 1993 Mumbai Blast. Remember the blast was most destructive and  left behind over 500 dead and 1000 crippled. Now don't you feel our most benevolent Munna Bhai  should  have given his "Jaduo ki Jhappi" to the Mubaites that day by informing the police about the conspiracy that was about to blast . Had he done so he would have become our Hero No1 beyond the reel into the real life. I am sure  his act of safe keeping AK 47 and grenades cannot be called an act of innocence. After all he is not  simply our  Munna, he is our all time favorite Muna Bhai and I don't believe in  calling Munnabhai a ...."Papu"!

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...

MY MODISTORY

  I am one among 900  million plus    "nuts and bolts" of our  Democracy , who   become "faceless" faces in the crowd after  every 5 years.  Year 2014 election was in every sense historic It was beyond doubt a landslide victory for BJP and the beginning of  the so called "MODI" Raj  In year 2014 my reason and my josh for  casting my vote for  BJP was "Modi". His speeches were "sparkling confidence" that set ablaze the confidence of  the nation that was trying to rise up from the cesspool of corruption   Looking back now after 11 years I realise that year 2014 was also  the beginning of era called   "Political Branding" that would  covert  a "politician" into a larger than life  "Mega Leader" Perhaps that is the reason that today in politics "anti-incumbency" does not matter at all . Here are  in brief  a Common man's  bunch of thoughts on "Modi Story". These ...

    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...
