Rab ne bana di jodi..

Finally... Its confirmed that a new comer is much better than Shah Rukh Khan! I always knew this but first time SRK has managed to make such a big fool of himself.. He does it everytime.. But this is the movie where he has done the worst acting.. Why? Coz he tried to act like the character and then that proved that he can't act for nuts! All what he can do in all the movies is "be himself" in each and every movie and that is termed as acting.. Its high time that somebody has to explain the meaning of the term "acting" to him..

The story: Don't ask.. I thought Om Shanti Om was the stupidest movie ever made.. And I had thought this movie will beat it and actually it would have, if Anushka Sharma had acted bad.. But she turned out to be really good and if you ever watch the movie it has to be for her..
SRK making wierd faces & gestures.. Anushka Sharma acting very well..

Why I watched it? : Good question.. To see how bad can SRK get!

My first supposed to be "poem"

Life is a roller coaster
Surprises you every time
You think happiness is here
And lo and behold, that was just a fallacy
You wait for the release……….

It’s the day of release
It’s a happy ending after all
You think the moment is here to stay
Again it fools you!

You try and introspect
What did go wrong?
And you realize only one thing
Life is a roller coaster


And then suddenly,
when your mind is calm
and is in acceptance stage,
there comes the answer..
To think of it..
It was always there..
in your mind!

So smile, follow your heart
The path will be shown
to those who seek..
Seek within you..
In you, lies all the answers..

My daily bus ride..

These days my daily bus ride is giving me a lot of insight on many things.. The journey is long and you get to overhear conversations if you want or not. You get to see some faces cringe and someone pushes them, you see college girls giggling and talking about their college mates and about some guy in the bus who is continuously staring at them. You get pushed by some man and I turn to give a stare and my most repeated sentence in Kannda these days seems to be "swalpa hinde hogi" ("plz go a little back").. Well.. these are the everyday issues


Today as I got into the bus (which unfortunately had all the seats occupied), I looked arround to find out who might get down. My friend and me do this everyday. Somehow, as you travel everyday, you become more or less like an astrologer always trying to predict if the college girls will get down at the stop of the nearing college or the next and who might get down in the last stop etc etc.. Anyways my hopes were not bright of getting a seat today as it was comparitively crowded. The lady sitting in a seat near me had "FOUR" kids with her. And then I observed that the elder ones were girls and the youngest a boy. That's when my friend and me started discussing. This happens even today doesn't it? The craze for a boy child is still very much alive. Afterall who would want a girl child? There are so many expenditures associated with a girl child. The main additional thing being the "dowry" and the "jewellery" and etc etc...

Everyone knows the solution.. What would happen if every girl's parent's started to say NO to every guy who asked for dowry? When there is no one who would give dowry obviously that guy is not going to stay single all his life waiting for dowry.. What if every parent in this world treated thier boy and girl child without any difference? What if every woman started to fight for her right? (instead of just letting all others arround her decide that its not a good idea).. We all know the solutions, but we have very few trying to make the change...

As they met...

As she got down from the bus, her eyes were searching for him.. She was wearing a white salwar with red floral prints.. He was there as usual waiting for her, just the way he has been from the day I have been seeing them. Her eyes settled on him, and the joy in her eyes was evident.. But she quickly changed her expression to pretend that she was angry. He looked at her and it was obvious that he was smitten by her expressive eyes and beautiful face.. As usual she came and sat next to him in the bus stop but she looked away from him. He tried holding her hand, but she din't let him.. He looked at her lovingly and pleadingly but she again looked away.. Then he again tried holding her hand and this time she gave in..

Her hands moved frantically and made many gestures questioningly and he with his gestures tried to explain that he was innocent and she was quick to retort back with her hands and gestures.. I have no clue what they must have been talking but it was wonderful to see two people communicate so well.. without the power of speech..

Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na...............

This is one refreshing movie... Well made I must say.. A simple movie with the actors perfectly suiting the role and songs made for the movie.. Every person in the movie added a nice flavour to it.. Though I feel Genelia needs hindi diction classes.. The song which u can keep humming in the most besura way is..
Tera mujhse tha pehla ka naatha koi..
Yunhi nahin gungunatha koi..
Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na...
Maane Tu Ya Maane Na...

A bond made in heaven!

When the girl is considered to be of "marriageable age", then starts the drama! If she has managed to find somebody for herself, then ofcourse she has done a BIIIIG CRIME! How shameless she is to find someone for herself.. In this century, familes and relatives still have problems if the person their son/daughter want as their life partner is of another caste! How does it matter at the end of the day? These "supposed to be relatives" anyways are not going to be there for that person when these people are in trouble. A marriage is between two people and yes ofcourse, the family is very important.. But if the family is still in some age old century and don't want to accept a person only because that person is of some other caste, then I think thats very very ridiculous! Ofcourse the religious rituals will vary, but is that the priority? I have been seeing so many of my good friends in this mess.. And I really don't know how the people who you have given birth to you, taken care of you and loved you for so many years, suddenly forget everything coz you decided to do something what you want to do.. Religion is important but more than that I feel belief in God is most important. At times, some people really do make the wrong choices, I truly believe that if a person has made a wrong choice, sooner or later they will surely realise.. And anways its their choice, so why not let them take their decision and let them learn the hard way if that's their way of handling life..
And even worse, I hear stories of people who were in love with someone and then got married to a third person and then got back to the first one! This is even more madness.. God has given people brains and I don't know why they don't use it? When they really loved somebody so much, then they need to know which is more important for them.
I have soooo many of my friends who are going through this.. I really pray for all of them.. At the end of the day, its the destiny that takes over............

First day of college........

As the girl dressed in a lenghty unfitting salwar kurta (ready made one) with the plastic framed spectacles on her nose took her first steps towards her new college, her legs seemed very heavy. She tried to control her anxiety and was thinking 'even my sister went to this college, so it cannot be that bad'.. All her friends from school who had joined the same college, were in a different class and she was so nervous that she had to enter the class alone..

She decided to enter the class much before the class was to start, so that she would not have to face too many people. She walked into the class and her eyes were deperately looking for a familiar face. And much to her disappointment, she din't find any.. Then she decided that today was her first day and she din't know anyone, so she will have to try and make friends today itself. She walked up to a desk which already had two girls.. She just spoke to them and decided to mingle with them. To her dismay, they were 4 of them (two had gone out) and all of them were together a group of friends. She just wanted to get up and change her seat, coz she din't want to be the 'unwanted one'. But one of them seemed pretty friendly and that helped. Though she checked with her if its ok if she is seated with them and she was relieved when that girl confirmed that it was very much 'ok'. That girl introduced her to the other two girls and she just couldn't register the name and she thought anyways I am not going to be friends with them, so why bother..
It was lunch break and she decided after lunch she would look for another place as she knew she wouldn't be welcomed into the group. But to her dis-appointment she din't find any other place. she decided to sit there and by now everyone had found themselves a place in the class so she could not ask anyone. Anyways as the last period approached, she was so glad to leave the class. She could get back to the people whom she knew and with whom she was comfortable. While walking back, she met her school friend who was in the other class and she was very happy.. Atlast she could be herself... And that ended her first day in college which she actually dreaded.. ;-)
