GILC 2 Results..............Disappointment

Last Night was a great disappointment to us (Sachin & Me). I never thought of writing a post on any TV serial or soap or any idol shows but this made me write about it. Results were declared and along came the disappointment, and unexpected results. No wonder one who was crowned Laughter king was good but he wasn't the best. He do deserve to come in finals but his performance wasn’t the one which we can say he is laughter king. Results wasn't fair, Rauf Lala was crowned as king of comedy for sole purpose that he was Pakistani and to tie the friendship bonds between two countries, but was this fair enough to do on the sake of deserving ones???????

The one who came second, Rajeev was the one who used to write scripts for Shekar suman’s shows"Simply Shekhar" which was a plus point for him to get promoted and reach this level else, he was a big mimicry of "GILC 1 champ SUNIL PAL" he wasn't the original.

AND the one with original humors and original scripts were sidelined.

YES am talking about KHAYAALI and PRATAP FAUJDAAR. They were simply the best. And in the overall performance, (As I keenly observed each and every episode) they were consistent and made us laugh till we held our stomachs and led our eyes watered. Amazing performers were they, but they were awarded with third crown. This was not fair at all

Doctor's performance was also wonderful, his poems and stanza's were not only humorous but thought provoking too. But I think he had limited audience who can understand the depth of his humor so being a second last wasn't bad for him. The man with Rancho was also good that he reached finals, as he was lively and made his monkey come dummy to perform as real, and made it lively, but as he has got only one theme throughout the series, so he didn't has got any variance, so coming last was also fair for him, The duo performers from Pakistan were good too and made us laugh, but they landed in a controversy by making some comments on SC. Anyways whatever the thing may be, what we have to say here is the one who has been crowned as laughter king was good but not the BEST

Bihari Essay "Indian Cow"

You'll forget your English by the time you finish reading this. This is a true essay written by a Bihari candidate at the UPSC(IAS)Examinations. The candidate has written an essay on the Indian cow:

Indian Cow

HE IS THE COW. "The cow is a successful animal. Also he is 4 footed, And because he is female, he give milks, [ but will do so when he is got child.] He is same like-God, sacred to Hindus and useful to man. But he has got four legs together. Two are forward and two are afterwards. His whole body can be utilised for use. More so the milk. Milk comes from 4 taps attached to his basement. [ horses don't have any such attachment]

What can it do? Various ghee, butter, cream, curd, why and the condensed milk and so forth. Also he is useful to cobbler, watermans and mankind generally. His motion is slow only because he is of lazy species, Also his other motion.. gober] is much useful to trees, plants as well as for making flat cakes[like Pizza] , in hand and drying in the sun.

Cow is the only animal that extricates his feeding after eating. Then afterwards she chew with his teeth whom are situated in the inside of the mouth. He is incessantly in the meadows in the grass. His only attacking and defending organ is the horns, specially so when he is got child. This is done by knowing his head whereby he causes the weapons to be paralleled to the ground of the earth and instantly proceed with great velocity forwards. He has got tails also, situated in the backyard, but not like similar animals. It has hairs on the other end of the other side. This is done to frighten away the flies which alight on his cohesive body hereupon he gives hit with it.

The palms of his feet are soft unto the touch. So the grasses head is not crushed. At night time have poses by looking down on the ground and he shouts . His eyes and nose are like his other relatives. This is the cow.......

We are informed that the candidate passed the exam, and is now an IAS, in bihar in somewhere..[sorry somewhere in Bihar]


And this marks my 75th post today

Farewell to Aarti....

Yup Aarti, whom I met just 6 months back, when I joined my new job. I was confused among new people out here as having a language difference and then I met her. Same team, same project and then started developing a bond with her. Being North Indian, and a gujrati girl we became good friends. Haven't thought that one can get so attached to a person in such a short span of time. Today she came to office last time as she will be leaving on 28th to mumbai for her marriage. Yes she is getting married on 3rd July, am so happy for her, although am feeling bad that she won't be here to share a cup of coffee with me during tea time :) and then will miss her sweet talks. But still its good that she is going to start her new life. Here I wish her all the success and life full of love, caring, and sweet moments which she will cherish for whole life.


God Bless the couple

Hearitest Congratulation's Aarti

Maggi...... Is It.



Maggi.....Is It??

Last night I tried the new maggi product , Maggi, Dal+Atta noodles (Sambhar style)....ugghhh IT TASTED YUCK!!!!!!

I think only southie's will apreciate it's taste but for ppl like me, it was real bad thing to taste, MY first and Last packet of this flavour.

Being an ardent lover of maggi, I just could NOT insult it by throwing, so have to eat it whole as Sachin took only one bite and left for me to enjoy. Poor me :

I have tried maggi and all its flavors, being maggi aatta vegetable noodles my favorite one, Even there used to be one maggi soup noodles, they introduced long time back, I loved that too but then it was dissappeared from the scene, Maggi have been my favorite snack since school days, when mom used to refuse giving me food or something else to munch at odd hours, I loved sneaking in kitchen to cook maggi. I remember me and my sis, cooking maggi at 3 a.m. during exam days, and then hostel life, it's incomplete without Maggi :P

Then I even try lots of R&D with maggi and been successful all the times:P I loved it with dash of garlic tinge and little bit of tomato ketchup in it.
I love maggi in sandwich and yes eating it raw too :P
Loved the maggi spring rolls, and frankies:)

But this New Flavor disappointed me so much :(
Another flavor in my ignore list is Maggi tomato flavor.(Yuck!!!)

Even I always loved maggi adds, all new and innovative and always tempt me to go to kitchen to look for another pack :P

But still am not going to leave eating it :P
Only thing I stick to the basic and my favorite ones :P

Bulla ki jaana main kaun, Bulla ki jaana main kaun, Bulla ki jaana main kaun, Bulla ki jaana main kaun.
Na main moman vich maseetan, Na main vich kufar dian reetan, Na main pakan vich paleetan.
Na main andar bed kitaban, Na main rehnda phaang sharaban, Na main rehnda mast kharaban.
Na main shadi na ghamnaki, Na main vich paleetan pakeen, Na main aaabi na main khaki.
Na main aatish na main paun, Bulla ki jana main kaun, Bulla ki jana main kaun, Bulla ki jana main kaun, Bulla ki jana main kaun.
Na main arabi na lahori, Na main hindi shehar Nagaori, Na hindu na turk pashauri.
Na main bhet mazhab de paya, Na main aadam hawwa jaya, Na koi apna naam dharaya.
Avval aakhar aap nu jana, Na koi dooja hor pacchana, Mai ton na koi hor syana.
Bulle shah kharha hai kaun, Bulla ki jaana main kaun, Bulla ki jaana main kaun, Bulla ki jaana main kaun, Bulla ki jaana main kaun

Life these days - Part 2

Hello every body after a loooooong time ,

Long time since I have written here and interacted with you all . But yes , had been keeping track of the blog , Anjan had been religiously keeping the blog live thanks to her for doing my job too..


So how is everybody, Ashish,I heard had a great trip home( ;) ) , Neeti is busy with her job and finding life better , chalo aacha hai ..

As far as I am concerned , last couple of months had been pretty busy but not significant for me .. My job profile has changed considerably .. ofcourse positively .. new avenues seem to be coming up and I am happy that I am able to put up all the hardwork life is demanding ..

So what up with all of u my blog friends ?? Just felt like talking to you all so wrote this ..

here is a piece of prose I wrote during hectic work schedule .. ( PS> I am not negative about life :) and this not replica of my feelings , just a prose i felt like writing).

Contemplating about my existence
And the meaning of my life,
I find no absolute answers.
I repeat contemplating
Over the triviality of my existence,
My existence might be a sheer waste.

I am wandering through the woods,
Not knowing where to go.
Want no more perceptions of my existence.
I seek the truth.
I seek the reality.
But I question how it comes,
When there is no reality.

Noumenon
It is a thing in itself
It just exists
No force exists that can change it.
Humans act foolish trying to perceive it
With a desire to reveal its nature

I hate this materialistic world,
I have nothing to do here.
No freedom.
No choice.
Constant fear
Helpless I am

Life These Days................

Few days back it was pleasant, having a gala time but now again we are back on usual life... same old getting up early, rushing office, back home, life becoming monotonous.... Have so many things pending but still no time, Then have lots of work in office too, This time for a change am busy too :P
Or else it was only Sachin who was busy but am too having tons of work :(

Have so many things pending in the shopping list too ....
House needs a cleaning re-do
Cupboards again in mess... God Why can't these cupboards be fixed for once and all,,,,, always happen the day I'll clean up the messy cupboard, it will be back to normal shape (messy one) in just three days.... And then again clogging it for a month or so.... arggggg

Vacations.... haven't taken them for a long time...
WE need a break,,, but still have to wait, can't go before August as Sachin has to give his MBA exams

Don't know how long will it take to come back to normal, Sometimes I too think of taking up further studies but then again think of will I be able to give it proper time :(
Don't remember when both of us had proper sleep .... Life has become so hectic and we seriously need break

BREAK.........

Think About it........

Haven't come up with any new post these days...
I got this as a forwarded mail so thought of putting up here .....

BEWARE GUYS MAY BE ....................................
MAY BE THE FUTURE IS LIKE THIS:-

For the last 5 yrs admissions were closed for the general category students. School bell rings. I can see a lot of happy children coming out of the gate, I waited for half an hour and my kid came at last after other children.Genaral students are not allowed to cross the gate unless other OBC/SC/ST students have crossed the gates. OBC/SC/ST fathers drive away their children in classy cars. But I have to walk back home with my kid a 5km stretch. I lost my car some years back when Govt. came with a rule that general people have to deposit a tax equal to cost of their cars .Failing which I had to sell the car.As far as buses are concerned, the seats in buses are reserved for OBC/SC/ST .So no place there also. After walking some 5km in scorching heat i finally reached home.
It was wednesday ... s*i*, no electricity.Every mon,wed,thu,sat is power cut in the
houses of General category population .So that SC/ST/OBC can be uplifted by providing them with every opportunity and in that consideration electricity is an
important factor.

Its 10:00 pm in night no electricity at home.Its very hot inside the four walls of home .So i dare to step out in park with my wife and kid.I seated myself with
my family on a secluded bench in garden.It was hardly 5 min .. a guard came to us
strolling in the park.He asked me what caste you belong to. I said with some hesitation .. G..General.He asked me to pay a fine of Rs.200 and get out of the park.
My Fault...
The bench I was sitting on was meant for again the SC/ST/OBC . for their upliftment
peace of mind is on essential things. So govt came with this decision to Reserve
benches for them.Kudos to them...
Its early in the morning ...the newspaper wala just knocked the door.I took the newspaper and started reading ..,its independence day . I never used to forget this days some 20 yrs back. My kid hardly knows wat 15th august is ,because I never told him any stories of greatness of our country or anything realted to country.I don't feel like telling him the failures after freedom.
On front page of newspaper, in a corner their is a news about a OBC member getting 6 months impriosonment in "BAL SUDHAR GRAHA" from a juvenile court for murdering and raping a six year old girl .Yes the rules have been
amended ,since the last 5 years.The Culprit was a 25 year old OBC so age relaxation was provided for trial of crime.So he was taken to juvenile court, since there is an age relaxation for
OBC/SC/ST.
About 11 am some one gave me the BAD news about demise of one of my neighbour and friend Mr.Mehta. I went to his house for condolence next day ,his body was lying
there still rotting in the heat.I asked his son about the Cremation .His son told me
" Many reserved category have died yesterday so we are not getting entry to creamtion ground " . This rule is the latest from Govt.Where the seats in creamtion ground will be reserved for SC/ST/OBC for their upliftment.

Finally next day Mehta ji was creamted.i could see sun seeting through the Flames burning a libarated Body, liberated from caste n creed.I was surprised sun still sets in the west.?
it was about 9 pm , I was about to sleep in my bed my son came to me with innocence in his eyes , inquisitively he asked me the question what is reservation?
I asked him where u listened that .
he suddenly burst in tears .. I asked him to keep..quiet But Ii could listen through his sobs "mujhe bhi reservation chahiye (i too want reservation)".
How can I convince him its no other toy in the market I can get for him?

He kept cryin that night ,claiming many of "his classmates have got reservation".
To make him quiet i said ok , I'll buy you reservation at your next B'day.


Bye Bye india
