jingles... kuch yaadein purani si

Remember guys the jingles which were all the time on our lips when we were kids..
yes am talking about the creative tv advertisements and their jingles...
Today me and my friends on orkut (luckily I made great friends here in UK Indian community) were talking on this and we refreshed our memories with our all time favourite ads jingles.

I thought why not I jot them down and keep it with me forever :)

Friends there were so many ad jingles which we knowingly or unknowingly keep on humming in school lunch break, or while bathing or even while bicycling to school.I remember during lunch break sometimes even for discussion we used to discuss on the jingles and have little bit arguements too which one is the best.

So here are few which I can remember with the help of my friends on orkut Nimisha, Asmita, Shubha, Deepa, Sunitha,Charu,Chaitali...

All time favourite ones...

This one was my all time favourite as am a big fan of maggi and can have maggi at any given point of time..




School se aate dhoom machate..
Ek hi baat ye dohrate..
Maggie Maggie Maggie...
Do Minute..
Pal Bhar mein tyaar
Khaaney mein mazzedar..
Maggie Noodles
Being in UK , I really miss maggi a lot, have tried a lots of instant noodles brands but it don't have woh baat :)
Here is another beautiful one..


Kuch Khaas hai Hum Sabhi mein
Kuch Baat hai Hum sabhi mein...
Khaas hai..
Baat hai..
Kya swaad hai...
Zindagi mein...
Remember Cadburies Adv, girl dancing in the center of ground when her boyfriend hits a century....
Although all cadbury adv were fantastic... leave the papu paas ho gaya thing aside

Then there came paints advertisements...

Nerolac

jab ghar ki raunak badhani ho..
deewaronko jab sajanao ho...
nerolac nerolac...
rangonki duniya me aao
tum rangeen sapne sajaoo...
nerolac nerolac ...

Asian Paints

Yeh tera ghar ye mera ghar..
hamara ghar ye pyara ghar..
deewar aise khil uthe..

asian paints

Tractor Distemper
roshan bahri deewar hai..
apne pan aur pyar ..
rango ki bahar..

tractor distemper

Asian Paints..
Har ghar chup chaap se yeh kehta hai ..
andar usmein kaun rehta hai?..
Chhat bataati hai... ...
yeh kiska aasmaan hai.
Rang kehte hain kiska yeh jahaan hai....
Kamron mein kiski kalpana jhalakti hai?...
Is farsh par nange pair kiske bacche chalte hain?...
Kaun chun chunke ise pyaar se sajaata hai?
Kaun is makaan mein apna ghar basaata hai...
Har ghar chup chaap se yeh kehta hai... ki andar usmein kaun rehta hai?

Then there was all time fav of everyone I guess..
Jab mein chotta bachha tha..
bardhi sharat karta tha...
meri chori pakdi jaati....
jab roshan hota bajaj
Abb mein bilkul boodha hun..
goli kha key jeeta hun...
phir bhi chori padki jaati...
jab roshan hota bajaj
Yaad Aaya :)

Then this one... which we kept singing all day

washing powder nirma...
washing powder nirma...
thodha sa powder aur jhaag dher sara...
seema....asha...jaya aur sushma...
sabki pasand nirma...
Then how can you forget this one..

Doodh doodh doodh doodh doodh,
wonderful doodh,

Garmi me dalo doodh me ice
Doodh ban gaya very nice
Piyo daily once or twice

Going back to memory lanes again...

Yeah me again remembering my old times. As my mom and my sisters going to visit us in summer vacations I just remembered my summer vacations when I was in school :)
When ever May end used to approach we kids used to start talking abt the vacations, and the spots to visit, what fun , whom are we going to visit, Oh man what fun. And then decisions were taken how to ise the spare time, playing , sketching or involving in some crafts. Some of us even think of joining some summer classes , dance or painting kind of those workshops, I never had joined
any...
And when finally the holidays were declared officially it used to bring other side of the coin too....
Yes you guys guessed it right "HOLIDAY HOMEWORK"
eeekssss I hated it from the core of my heart. There were ppl
among us who used to finish it within first two days of holidays but I was kinda lazy bones who will touch her homework in last two days. Gosh I remember those homework some interesting and some so weird that I used to crib a lot. Why do they make us work this way, it is not fair at all. Out of those one was CURSIVE WRITING exercise. urrgghhh our English teacher used to ask us fill those cursive writing books and dunno why can't she understand holidays were meant to be fun and not to do this boring task. Even I had filled numerous cursive writing books still today am not following it and worst of it sometimes I can't even read what have I scribbled :P
Not to mention sachin's handwriting I guess he never filled any handwriting book :P
And what to mention of those teacher's god they just don't have kids I guess coz they would ask us to finish all the syllabus covered till date so that as soon as holidays will finish, test time will come. Why do they gave us holidays for :(
So we have to finish all the syllabus of hindi, english, maths, S.st. and S.ci.
#:-S
And then we were still not spared as all these teachers will also give creative homework too.....
They used to ask us collect different leaves from where ever you go for vacations, Now they except us to collect samples and not enjoy beauty :( Not to mention those scrap books which were suppose to be filled up with different kinds of pulses, cloth samples, etc etc. And yes science teacher was crazy, she once asked us to collect various nest, those which are abandoned by the birds. Now what does she think that we will take our magnifying glass, a binocular put on our googles and jacket and go on mission :D funny
I remember one of my classmate, I forgot his name(we were in class five I guess) He got a nest with live bird kids, four of them inside. :P great hustle bustle in class and when our teacher got to know about that she almost screamed and that kid answered innocently you never said birds should not be inside nest :)
Aah I never used to collect any of this. Don't have such patience to look for them :)
All I was happy on vacations is this is the time to visit naaniji (granny) now. Just use to wait to get there. I just loved her aaloo parantha's mint chutney and sarson ka saag with makki ki roti:) And then regular visits to other relatives and all was fun. Then fun part will come to an end and I used to get in depression now. Oh god two days left , no homework, no scrap books , no charts and in panic would complete half of them which I knew were more important as had got strict teachers :P And when school use to re-open by that time would think of excuses which I haven't made last vacations :D
Talking of school re-opening how can I forget re-opening after the annual exam, when all of us were to experience new, new class, new bags, new uniform, new shoes, new books, fresh notebooks neatly covered with brown sheets and plastic covering with those minnie and micky mouse stickers and new pens :)
I used to love to go on first day of new class :P

Chalo bahut ho gaya going back to memory lane am coming out of it, in the present where am no more a kid, no more long summer holidays, :P

~Memories :)


And updates our NEetie got a job :)

Another golden memories....

Hmm when am remembering all the old days how can I forgot the golden period of each one of our lives... School ....Yeah you are right school days can never be forgotten and each one of us must be having some memory chords attached isn't it :)
Ladies and Gentlemen Here are few of my memories of mySchool days....remember the first time kid is forced to go to school..........
Yeah I remember how kids make different excuses to skip school.... luckily we don't have to do that as my parents were supportive and if my sister's or it's me who don't feel like going to school just have to ask them and they won't say no... :P although I have good memories and I loved going to school and even got highest attendance prize :D Now when I think of that a smile appears :)
Okie do you remember your fist pencil... yeah the first time you were handed a pencil and notebook and you felt as if now you have whole world in your hands...
Do you remeber using pencil every possible place where it is not suppose to be :D and avoiding scribbling over the note pad... putting lines on refridgerator, walls, school benches, even classmate's shirt .... what a fun man, wasn't that.... I remember collecting all sorts of pencils and then one very long one with a funny face or a hand at it's top which could be used for scratching back too apart from writing :P... multitasking you see :) Don't you remeber shrapening your pencil every two minutes and just thinking uski pencil meri pencil say zyada theekhi kaisay :P And then every second day asking mom for new pencil.... and she saying abhi subah hi to dee thee where is that :P.....
And yes checking the point of pencil by pinching it to ur frd..... And laughing that silly antiques :)
And remember writing those silly things on black board when teacher is not around... or drawing faces while she is away....... And laughing at her angry expressions :P
Teacher's have a real difficult time handling kids :)

Remember the craft classes where in you get a freedom to create anything beyond your imagination.. Where in we can color horses to green or make a orstrich out of egg shell... or just smear our hands with glue and smudge our clothes with all sorts of colors and mom looking for surf excel and praying ki ghol mein daag gol :P
Poor mom's :)
And then best part sharing each other's lunch
Although that lunch sneaking was done in the second period only under the table lols... and then makeing ourself free for that lunch time to play in school playground.... Playing Hide and seek, tippy tippy tap, Stapo, cricket with cardboards during exam times :P and many more which I don't remember ....

Sharing our lunch there was so much fun and then bigger fun to eat someone's else tiffin without his knowing :) then offering ours to him....

Exam fever.... being a kid also examination fever grips and then helping other's in studies... Trying level best to come at top position so that mom , dad are happy... and answering them why I scored less in maths and more in hindi.... why my friend scored more than me...

Those golden days will never come back now.... Never

Still have childhood friends, still share all those things .....
A wish to become a kid back again :)


Okie La Weekend is here.....

Wishing you all Happy Weekend :)

I realized this is my 51st Post on Blogspot :)

Cherished Memories......

Was sitting idle and suddenly strike an idea why not write for the place from where I belong to. The place where I spend most of my time..... where I completed my schooling and the place
where I graduated...

Where I had my most memorable moment... YES my first date with Sachin..
the place where we both decided to get married.

Where we took decision to follow each other's religion and took vow to spend our lives together...

The Place I miss the most....

My home town.. Chandigarh :)

Place which I have left now with lots and lots of memories along with. This post I think is going to be mine biggest post ever as am not going to limit my thoughts and just jotting down what ever is coming to my mind....

Where Shall I start from...

Chandigarh the city beautiful..

We shifted to Mohali phase 7 in the year 1994 and from that year till 2004 I spend my time there only. So a decade almost and fell in love with the place and who won't. It is such place..


Okie I'll give a brief history of the place...

Chandigarh is the first planed modern city of India designed by the French architect LeCorbusier...

Chandigarh is famous for following:

  • Planning and Architechture
  • Quality of Life
  • High Educational Level
  • Pollution free environment
  • Aware and Active citizens
Chandigarh serves as the Joint Capital of both Punjab and Haryana states. Total area of the union territory is 114 sq.km

ahaan rest of the information can be gathered from Here

or else google to hai hee ;)

Although best thing I do want to mention abt chandigarh is that

every sector has atleast:

  • 1 school
  • 1 market
  • 1 garden/public park
  • 1 gurudwara and mandir

And it is a common scene to see citizens taking morning and evening walk and kids enjoying the jhoolas (rides) in the park and then yes best thing to mention no markets on main roads so
no traffic jams and proper parking for every market.

I just miss the clean, wide and soothing roads of the place....Trees on both side of roads make the drive pleasant.

Apart from the individual gardens of each sector there are few famous ones too





*Rose Garden

*Shanti kunj (our third date's venue :P)

*Garden of Fragrence

*Hibisicus Garden

*Terraced Garden

*Botanical Garden

*Fitness Trails


*Rock Garden (Shri Nek Chands creation)



some garden pics slide shows can be viewed
Here


Special Thanks to Baiju Joseph, Some of the pics used here are from his valueable collections :)

Year 1995....
When I completed my 10th in one of the models school.... what fun it was to study there

Year 1997....
When I completed my 12th Commerce from Sri Guru Gobind Singh Senior Secondary school. Where in I was school head girl (yeah it was again fun to be school head girl) *teacher's favorite* :P and that year I was topper of the school too (only golden period of my acadamics :D)

Year 2000...
My graduation completed in commerce... from SGGS college sec 26 affilated to Panjab University Panjab University wherein we spend lot of time ................
Year 2004....
My Post graduation completed ....MCA but that I did from Patiala from Punjabi University

Youth Festivals....
oh what fun were they to be a part of and too visit all that



Then window shopping in sector 17 heart of city beautiful (cudn't afford to do actual shopping there :P) Sector 17 is main shopping and commercial centre of Chandigarh.This vast commercial complex is a pedestrian's paradise with four main piazzas meeting at a 'chowk'. It provides something for everyone, from hectic business activity to unhurried window shopping and even crowd gazing in the vicinity of the fountain. Air-conditioned showrooms and departmental stores cater to the needs of shoppers.

Needless to mention the other places worth visiting....

  • Government Museum and Art Gallery
  • Museum of the evolution of life
  • Child Art Gallery
  • National Gallery of Portraits
  • International dolls museum
  • Punjab Kala Kendra
  • The Rock Garden..... We had spend time there too :">
It is created by Nek Chand and spread over 64 acres. Thevisitors are led through a maze of paths, chambers and canyons,each presenting a glimpse of a fantasy world. it is unique in its kind and is made by cutting the rocks and using all waste and discarded products.

  • Sukhna Lake...

The most memorable one for both of us...
Its a man made lake spread over 3 square kilometers.
This is favorite spot for bird watchers too. As from December through February, one can see many species of aquatic birds from Central Asia and Siberia. yeah these are the stairs where Sachin and I sat for the first time and he asked very hesitantly "Can I hold your Hand?" And the next question was "What next?"
And I replied "We getting married" :">


hmm although after marriage we didn't get chance to go back there... hopefully this time we'll make it :)

  • Leisure Valley
  • Bougainvillea Garden
  • Zakir Rose Garden
... Named after India's President, Zakir Hussain, the garden was established in 1967 under the guidance of Chandigarh's first Chief Commissioner Dr M.S. Randhawa. The largest Rose Garden in Asia, it is spread over an area of 27 acres and has more than 17,000 plants representing some 1,600 varieties of roses as well as several fountains.his garden is the venue of the annual Rose festival, an event listed on the national calendar of fairs and festivals. This is one of the main
cultural events of the city and draws thousands of visitors.

And Yes I do miss the Rose Festival........
What a huge crowd it draws every year and now haven't been to the festival for last 2 yrs....


  • Shanti Kunj
  • Children's Traffic Park
  • Terrace Garden
  • Rajendra Park
  • Smriti Upavana

Those were the days..................

Well I was remembering my college days today, my old friends and then I was chatting today with my long time chat friend Ranjan, whom I know for last 5 yrs. We were remembering our old talks and the topics we used to discuss and then remembered all my college friends and then suddenly it strike to me to put here a collage made by Sachin while he was remebering his old days, all his childhood friends with whom he is still in touch, Siddhartha Mathur, Uttam Mathur, Gaurav Sharma, Manish Chaturvedi, Akhil Bhansali and Ashish Daga. All of them are now located at different locations of this world except Sidds as he is working in Hyderabad only .But still they all have golden memories their heart.
Few days back he got a forwarded mail upon which he along with Sidds, Uttam and Gaurav did some enhancements and pen down their feelings. Sachin collated them into one and prepared this collage.....
In this the last 5 stanza's are the one which were forwarded and these guys took that as base and made their contributions to it.
Well in this you can find sachin in white t-shirt with a huge smile on his face.

Isn't he golu molu :D
Okie the one in orange shirt is Siddarth bhai, one with garland is Ashish daga and one behind him in black shirt is Gaurav sharma...
