"Jinnah" jaise koi nahi..!

Do you think I should have said "Jaswant jaise koi nahi"..for the title of this post. Looking at the marketing prospect of the book "Jinnah":India-Partition-Independence" I am sure even Mr Jaswant Singh would have agreed with me on "Jinnah" jaise koi nahi". Let us get back to Mr.Jinnah. Any one who has gone through the recorded history of India's Independence at the national Archives of India would agree with me that Mr.Jinnah was no where near to being "Pak" on his ideas of being "SECULAR". Had that been so.! there never would have been today a country called "Pakistan". And our government will not have been investing the "tax payer's" money so heavily on the security of our politicians. Well let us not fight with our "conscience" over something that happened 62 years ago. Better still let us leave this fight to our political leaders,who anyway don't wear their "conscience"

"Kaminey"..!

Being a gentleman of sorts,I am never able to use "gali galoch".......like using the phrase "kutte,Kaminey" while venting my frustration and anger on someone.Sometimes I feel it could be this reason for my not being able to cultivate a circle of friends, who would always find an excuse to tell me.. Boss! "Aap kaho Toh Dikha De", In "kutto kamino ko", "Ham Hai Kya Cheez" ..! Actually these are the 'phrases' that gives you both a "muscular & a popular" image in your locality & in the neighbour hood. I very often get into arguments with 'auto wallas' for over charging. However when they start shouting & their 'fist' movements start looking menacing, I instead of matching their voice, start murmuring ...... "Kutto, Kamino, Mey Tum Logo Ko Dekh Lunga"..! However I also make sure that even my 'murmur' is hardly audible to anybody other than myself. I think probably it is this rea

Love Aaj Kal...!

Our political Leaders are very much in 'love' with the 'Aam Aadmi'.They can go on and on talking about the 'Aam Aadmi'. They are so passionate about the 'Aam Aadmi' that at times they even choke while speaking about Aam Aadmi's a "tryst with destiny". Most of us generally associate 'Love Story' with saga of "Laila Majnu" and the classic tragedy of Romeo&Juliet. So when our 'Political leaders' talk about their unending love for 'Aam Aadmi'....it is confusing and sounds crazy.You bet it is 'different.'..! Let us now very quickly go over a few of the 'reasons' for our political leaders' "Love" for "Aam Aadmi". When an 'Aam Aadmi' elects him to 'Power'..there comes an instant transformation in him......!!!! His living status gets elevated.Fame,power and Money makes him arrogant.He gradually becomes inaccessible to 'Aam Aadmis' welfare and well

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

"Minding the Gap"..!

There is no government sponsored public projects that can ever wish away political interventions. The Delhi Metro project was so far considered blessed to be able to keep away from political inferences.May be that was the prime reason for it being able to work ahead of the deadlines.However of late it seems to have after all caught in the slips in spite of being on a robust bating pitch. Well now the ball game of passing the monkey may live on till everything is wrapped out to a political perfection.However the blot on the clean chit that the "Team Metro" has been carrying so far....will remain an annoying spot in the "Aam Admi's" mind.However, it is but certain that the "Aam Admi" will keep his "prayers" lasting for the "Team Metro" to enable them to remain ultra vigilant in monitoring and minding the gap as it continue to drive "project Metro" through these 'rushing time for arriving on 'platform 2010' unscra

Yours "Unaturally"

Most of us I am sure would naturally agree that it is just not correct to say "its okay to be gay".How can we legislate something that is fundamentally on the wrong side of the "law of nature". 'Sick minds' and 'sick bodies' need cure not protection. This kind of judiciary interpretation of "life,liberty and equality" is a signal to coming disaster in the arena of "human sanctity". Nature's law of procreation is neither meant to be 'exploited' nor curtailed to the extent that not very long time away..the specie called "human being" will become an endangered specie. I am sure even 'Thomas Robert Malthus' one of those evolutionary biologist would not have approved this as an economic measure to control population. It will not be wrong to say that by legalising "homosexuality" we have paved a road that will see the future generation inheriting a "devils own civilization"

"Michael Jackson" a tribute

Amidst Global warming and environmental crisis,his music is a lush of global warmth. His pop numbers simply remain a craze with all young and old.For millions of pop addicts his over 100's of music numbers are always a pleasant 'thriller' from the aches of their growing up. His phenomenal fan following will become nothing short of a legend and a 'folk-lore' long long time after he is gone. Sadly for us Michael Jackson gave no one the time to wink when out of the blue he decided to bid this world goodbye. Michael Joseph Jackson is no more. Just at 50 he passed into eternity. Perhaps he realised his 'peter pan' image slipping away. "Better do it now before you get too old", "There ain't no rules its up to you" & "Its time to come alive" are some of the lines from his album "Off the Wall" All these will ever remain my 'road map' to walk my way through this life with 'hip,hop and pop'.
