Its an axcellent (like count dracula would say) topic to write about. So today I write about the Amazing Common Wealth Games (henceforth referred to as ACWG). I will illustrate will examples on how out great netas and people involved in ACWG have interpreted the term"Common Wealth" literally<br /><br /><br />Illustration1:<br /><br />Neta 1(eating cashew samosas and drinking high tea in the Marriot and rubbing his portly stomach): "Bhaisaab, aaj kal mehengaai ka zamaana bahut badh gaya hain, ghar mein sirf olive oil use kar rahe hai, 'extra virgin' ka toh poocho mat."<br /><br />Neta 2 (more portly and rounder than his counterpart): "Haanji Bhaisaab, mein apni biwi ko apne chauthi meeting ki 10th anniversary pe kuch nahin khareed paya.Sirf ek aath dimond bracelet and ek Italy ka trip. Bahut gussa hui thi woh mujhpe, kya kare?"<br /><br />Neta 1: "Arre, mein bhi yeh soch raha tha ki suddenly yaad aaya. Common Wealth Games, arre yaar, jab iska naam hi common wealth likha hai, toh hamaara hi hoga na..hum hi to "common man" hain, "Aam aadmi". Jab bhagavaan deta hai toh chappad phaad ke deta hai"<br /><br />Neta 2 (Completely happy and contended at the idea):"Bhaisaab, isiliye toh mein appke party mein kaam karta hoon, kya intelligence hain"<br /><br /><br /><br />Illustration 2:<br /><br />Page 3 person airhead (dripping with jewellery and sipping an expensive champagne and looking depressed):"Dahlins', I cannot come to the F1 party in Monaco this year. We are cutting down expenses. My husband at the sports authority in Delhi says he cant afford the usual 12 holidays this year."<br /><br />Page 3 person senior airhead (Equally dripping with diamonds but puzzled at the airhead's declaration):"But sweetums..is'nt he on the common wealth games construction committee?"<br /><br />Page 3 person airhead:"Yes. He is..So..?"<br /><br />Page 3 person senior airhead: "So, my dahlin', he can take you for 24 trips next year, not 12.., Its "common wealth" after all. This is the perfect time ot make money. God wants him to."<br /><br />Page 3 person airhead (All happy and in tears):"Oh! Diddy poo..what would I do without you! i will walk to the temple at the end of my road barefoot today."<br /><br /><br /><br />Illustration 3:<br /><br />Discussion between two research officers in a reputed space development centre in the US of A<br /><br />Researcher 1: "How can you look so relaxed?, We have no grants for our research project and our jobs are in serious trouble if we dont find some sponsor"<br />Researcher 2: "Hey, relax, I have a sponsor in mind. Government of India, Sports Authority"<br />Researcher 1: "Government of India????? What? How? Do they know??"<br />Researcher 2: "No, not yet, but should not be difficult. remember that we developed that treadmill which can be used in space and is anti-gravity, ABS and central locking with airbags?"<br />Researcher 1: "Yeah.Of course. They were so expensive to make. But what does that have to do with India and the Sports Authority?"<br />Researcher 2: "Elementary, my dear Watson, we are going to sell them to India for their commonwealth Games and make money."<br />Researcher 1: "Is'nt it better they get normal treadmills??? Why would they want ours.?"<br />Researcher 2: "because its Commonwealth games and they have the money to spend. Since its common wealth, we should also get some, should'nt we?"<br />Researcher 1(Looking relieved): "That's great. Phew. I feel better now. lets go have a beer. Its on me."<br /><br /><br /><br />This is just a few illustrations which detail how our great netas have misinterpreted the meaning of "Commonwealth Games"..Some more to followMaanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-63672777583952902612009-09-24T12:17:00.005+05:302009-09-24T13:38:13.798+05:30The REAL backward class - General Merit Category<span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;" >Right..I think I have been very vocal about the whole caste system. I intensely resent the whole OBC category and reservations. It is extremely unfair and has been made without any concern for the rest of us 'cattle class'. It is basically been created by people who do not want to work hard for anything and will blatantly misuse the law for their own selfish purposes. Most of these law is not available to the people who desperately require it. Why I am so against this concept? Let me furnish a few examples to show the blatant misuse.<br /><br />Disclaimer: I am against the whole concept of reservations on a caste basis. I am all for it if its based on economic background. So who avail it unnecessarily and unfairly automatically come under my wrath. It's not the people who I am angry at, it's the stupid law.<br /><br />Class 10: Final Exam fees: Everyone in the GM category had to pay some 300 odd Rs towards the fees. BUT the OBC candidates had to pay Rs 10. Well, that's not what pissed me off, , what pissed me off was the people to whom it was applicable could afford far more than most people in our class could. They were very affluent, yet they chose to brandish their caste certificate and pay only Rs 10. Why? because they are cheap and selfish.<br /><br />College admissions: After class 10 exams: Well, my sister got 91 % in her class 10 exams, she did not get into any of the lists put out by one of the most prestigious woman's college. She had to use the teachers quota to get in. Why? You need to go and take a look at the admission list to fully understand the discrimination. The first 20 names will be of GM category. All in percentages range from highest 97% to the least being 96.5%. Th next 20 names is for the OBC category, with the highest scorer being 65%. NOW tell me how do you feel, a person who probably does not deserve it, gets in the list purely on the merit of being an OBC candidate. I know people who fall in the GM category who are not doing good economically, this seat would have done them a world of good. But they are disadvantaged just because they are in GM<br /><br />Medical seats: I know a friend, again a GM candidate who was studying for her MD. She choose one of the lesser known specializations just because the rest were too expensive and the competition for a merit seat is too intense. I think some 10% seats are for GM students across the nation, the rest are reserved and others are payment. Imagine lakhs of students taking that exams and only a few qualifying for it. No wonder institutes ask for impossible scores. When you are a GM student, you need to be either so intelligent that your IQ hits the stratosphere or so rich that World Bank borrows from you. It doesnt feel good when you score 98% in MD entrance exams and could not get through because an OBC candidate who has money and has scored 60% gets preference.<br /><br />Banks and PSU's: Ask a banker in the GM category why he has not gotten promoted or has been transferred to a no name town in spite of their seniority and impeccable work record. 95% of the chances are that they would have been overlooked in favor of a colleague from an OBC quota. Powerful unions for the OBC and existing politics make it impossible for a GM banker to survive, unless he has powerful connections or is in the union. And most people in these quotas are not promoted on merit but mostly on caste hierarchy. It discouraging and demotivating.<br /><br />There are many more examples and I can go on about it. GM candidates work hard to get where they are. Most of them are from middle class backgrounds and cannot afford to shell out vast quantities of money. Their parents do the best they can and help them get ahead in life, only to be met at each turn by the quota system.<br /><br />The system is not just regressive, but an insult to India's intelligence. How can a country progress when the country's best minds are not given the opportunity. The law might have made sense at some point, but now it's just a ball and chain which is dragging down the people and the country along with it. This is the reason why most people under that category prefer to study abroad as they are given ample opportunities.<br /><br />Is it a wonder when people think of getting an OBC certificate to make life simpler?</span>Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-13020100426409842002009-09-21T12:27:00.009+05:302009-09-21T12:43:09.482+05:30Photography<span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">My sister, </span><a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://meghnaiyengar.blogspot.com/">Meghna</a><span style="font-family:arial;"> is a budding photographer.

Actually she is very well known cartoon. Most of us think she deserves a title. Like the Queen of nonsense or similar such terminology. So I'll run a vote at it and we can vote for a title. Suggestions are most welcome. So...This cartoon and us were playing pictionary and then the DC. She taught us a whole new angle to look at it. Some of the things we learnt are:<br />1: Never ever take anything at it's face value. There's always a complicated way to guess things.<br />2: Always mistake a noun for a verb. If not anything, at least it'll make the game more interesting.<br />3: Always draw something that looks like something else. If you draw what you are supposed to draw, then people will guess it right.<br />4: If they cannot guess action words, do the action by wiggling you bottom or make faces. It always helps your team guess right and win.<br />5: Never think in linear direction while guessing, always think out of the box, and if possible, out of the galaxy.<br />6: Even if you have guessed the word halfway, dont let it out, make it difficult by guessing non related terms. This is purely to challenge your intelligence and your team's patience. What's a game without some good verbal sparring.<br />7: While playing DC, always make signs that have .00001% of being guessed. That's the only way your team will learn.<br /><br />If you follow these rules, it’s almost guaranteed that your team will never win, but if not anything; you team will certainly be completely entertaining.<br /><br />The poll is on the top right. DO vote.</span>Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-71179686735554158732009-08-07T11:01:00.004+05:302009-08-07T11:22:05.436+05:30A day in the life of a cartoon<span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Well..Everyone keeps calling this friend of mine a cartoon...She is very upset..she says rightfully so. She says there is a reason she has become this way. The people she meets everyday and talks to and spends time with have forced her to become like this. It is survival the cartoon says..in the big bad world of mad people, this is how she survives. She illustrates an example of a typical day in her life and beseeches us to understand her predicament.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The morning:</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cartoon wakes up to * tring tring* ,</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cartoon :'Hello'</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">phone person: 'hello..hello..helooooooo...helloooooooooooo'</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cartoon: I can hear you, please dont scream</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">phone person: 'ok....listen..I will not be able to pick you up today for the car pool, there is a costume fitting and I have to upgrade my superhero outfit. I am sorry, you need to get to work on your own. bye.' *click*</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cartoon: 'whaaa....????' ok.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">At work:</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cartoon: Hey! morning!..</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cake man: oooohhh!! nice outfit..suits you. The colour brings out your eyes. Where did you get it from?</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cartoon: *completely bedazzled*. Oh! thanks. I got it from the same place I got others.</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cake man: explaining a party at home. 'We had like the best gold and silver'. I wore some swanky stuff. My mum fed me, she looked gor-ge-ous. Everyone was like..'man! you look good, have some cake'. I had quite a few. I photographed them. Look, I have even put markers so that you differentitate between sunrise marshmellow and dark knight cakes. oooooohh..wait wait,...i even got presents..i put them all on a table too. Look..cartoon..look..did you see my beuuuaaatiful shirt?'</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cartoon: *numbed in the brain* eh? nice they are. I'll get back to work.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Evening at home</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cartoon:'Ok, mum, i'm going to the neighbor's house'</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Mum: 'Ok, dont fall off the terrace this time'</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Dad: 'And also the staircase'. Do not think it's a slide. ok?'</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Cartoon:*thinking why she'll do that* and promptly rolling down the neighbor staircase and hurting a lot of useful body parts.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The above example clearly demonstrates that cartoon is the sanest in the all the conversations and should not be judged by the discussions she gets invariably drawn into. So she's not a cartoon but a normal unanimated human.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">P.S. The above incidents are not a part of any dream and concern real conversations with real people.</span></span>Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-20016038489633546602009-07-15T10:55:00.004+05:302009-07-15T11:33:52.641+05:30Queue monsters<span style="font-family:arial;">Hello...Today I am going to narrate a few short stories. Most of them are true and are personal experiences. After you listen to them, you'll know the horror I have gone through. But I do believe that I am not alone in this. I am going to talk about - Queue monsters. Yes, you heard right..the queue monsters. They are everywhere, from your daily supermarket to the movie ticket counter. You cant avoid them. Here are some monsters, in no particular order of monstrosity </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">- At a bookstore recently - </span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" >The I'll intimidate you monster</span><span style="font-family:arial;"> - I had given two items to be billed. It was almost done when this guy comes up behind me and starts dumping things from his cart over my head and starts demanding that his items be billed. Right! dude!..I am not in love with the billing guy that I am standing and staring into his eyes. I was here before you, so haul your frame out of my space and stand in queue.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">- At a supermarket - </span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" >The I am your mother monster</span><span style="font-family:arial;"> - I was second in what seemed like a long never ending queue. The people in front of me looked like they had billed the whole supermarket. Anyway, was waiting for my turn, when a Northie lady came huffing and puffing (sorry to be specific, but these are the worst kinds) with her fat progeny. She just pushed through to the front and started emptying her cart. The person in front of me politely told her that he was here before her. She pretended that she dint understand humans. It was only after the employee pointedly avoided billing her items did she curse, yell and go back and stand. I think I still have marks from being pushed around by that lady.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">- At a ticket counter - </span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" >The Size does matter monsters</span><span style="font-family:arial;"> - I hate the bloody multiplexes. They are overpriced, overdone and they rob you blind. Give me a Cauvery theater anyday. Well, we were standing in line, waiting our turn when these gaggle of annoying girls, again, predominantly Hindi speaking Northies arrive to give me a headache (man! it's like a conspiracy). They were loud (clothes and voice ;))and they just pushed their way through to the counter. Everyone let them go, just to save themselves a headache I think, but I was mighty annoyed. What's with these women thinking that they can push their way through. Sheer size and numbers I suppose.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">- At another self service restaurant - </span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" >The impatient monster</span><span style="font-family:arial;"> - Was waiting for my order in what seemed to be a slow day for the restaurant, with very few people. Waiting time would have been 5 mins tops or the loo break.Whichever is fastest. The girl behind me is shuffling her feet, muttering loudly about the long order I had given and it's wasting her time. Right!! It's my hobby to order vast quantities of lunch and waste other people's time. If I had so much time in the world, I would have gone to a real restaurant, not the self service fast food joints. So child! wait your turn.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">There are many many more. From cutting queues in libraries, to holding up a whole bunch of people with haggling. From pushing the person in front of you to abusing. But most of the latter happens in places which are extremely crowded like the railway stations. Not like the incidents above, most of which happened in high market,'educated' spaces with 'educated' people.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">So any other monster stories anyone else has?</span>Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-67946293615853389142009-07-08T15:43:00.003+05:302009-07-08T16:20:08.461+05:30Oh so weird! - Sroooti's tag - Tanker full of weirdnessWell..I have been tagged by Shruthi to do this tag. She's jaabless or she will be if her baas finds out what she does. heheheheh...She has 7 weird facts aaand she says I need to make up more. How can I possibly? I am not that weird. pramise. I am sane and normal. Or atleast I think what I do is normal <br />Ok, I will try....Here goes<br /><br />1: Nails - I dislike nail colour. I do paint my nails, but the fancy lasts a whole day, next day onwards, I feel my nails looks diseased and they will fall off. And I second <a href="http://full-meals.blogspot.com/">Shruthi</a> in whatever she says.<br /><br />2: I dont like traveling by autos. I travel in a lot of them, but I prefer traveling by metro (Well, It's always good to dream ;))<br /><br />3: I dont drink aerated drinks. I do dip chips in them and eat though. I honestly believe the mail that said a tooth will dissolve if put in coke.<br /><br />4: I like powercuts. Mostly if they are late evening. For once I can do the talking without TV for background noise.<br /><br />5: I like reading up on serial killers. I also love shows related to crime and forensics. No...not to get ideas..but dont give me ideas :)<br /><br />6. I like all stuff related to hauntings. I am very very scared of horror, but I'll still watch it.<br /><br />7. Though I dont think the fan will fall on me, I think it'll fall on someone someday...Like the sky is falling syndrome.<br /><br />8. I am shy. Really. Honest.I am.<br /><br />9. I always try new things out in restaurants and almost always dont like them, but I'll still try. That way, I can always tell you what to order and snicker when you dont like it.<br /><br />10. I dont like getting wet in the rain. I feel cold and I dont like feeling cold :P . So there.<br /><br />So I think these are weird. I may have more but I can assure you that I dont think they are. The monkeys may....but who believes monkeys anyway..heheheheheh<br /><br />And I am going to tag <a href="http://filtercafe.blogspot.com/">Pranitha</a> cos she's been MIA for a while and because I want to bug her.Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-2111723458853782362009-07-06T15:16:00.003+05:302009-07-06T15:50:12.619+05:30Total Timpass<span style="font-family: georgia;font-size:100%;" >Following Cartoon 3's blogsteps, I have also decided to publish another gtalk conversation. If you do not understand, then i cant help it. You don't understand that in the randomness of it all is a great philosophical theory.
<br />
<br />Disclaimer: Any reference to any person living/dead was intentional. If you recognize yourself and are hurt by the mention, then it was'nt you at all, it was someone else.
<br />Some conversation has been deleted. We do not want to sound boring. So only interesting bits are put in.
<br />
<br />So here goes: Conversation between Cartoon 1 and Cartoon 2.

Many of them have asked what happened to it. Well..it's days were numbered....One of the monkeys I know ate it. (I suspect Shruthi), she always likes eating masala dosa's. One of the favorite place of that monkey is CTR. (Central Tiffin Room), now known as something else I cant remember (Oh! Google informs me that it;s now SriSagar, but I'll still call it what I want). So today I will subject you all to a review of CTR which meets the high standard of my refined culinary masala dosa tastes.<br /><br />Location: No 154, Margosa Road, 7th cross, Malleshwaram, Bangalore.<br />Decor: Has chairs and tables and a 'family room'. That alone qualifies it for a 3 star dosa joint.<br />Ambiance: Eh? yen ri haagandare?<br />Price: Affordability is their first name.<br /><br />CTR has the look of the typical old joints which have been around since our parents can remember and looks it. There are always people standing outside waiting to get in. The smell is mouth watering. Once you get a place, point to note: You will almost never get a table to yourself, unless you are a large group you are always made to sit in the nearest available chairs. The place itself is not too big. With a set of mismatched chairs and tables and abuzz with activity and noise. The waiters arrive promptly. Unless you ask them to tell you the menu, they will assume you want the dosa.<br /><br />The benne (butter) masala dosa arrives almost immediately, the waiting time is probably 30 secs to a min. The dosa is crisp and roasted to the right consistency. The chutney is coconutey and really tasty. I could just eat chutney. The potato curry is a little less for me but it is enough for the dosa. The spice is a little less when compared to other places, so it is favored by most. The sambhar is very good too. Left to me, I'd sit and savour it, but the place is so full that you are expected to finish quickly and leave. A coffee after the dosa is a perfect finish. The coffee there is excellent. Right kind of filter coffee. The aroma reminds me of rainy days and hot filter coffee at home. After the meal, all you want to do is go and vegetate at home. It is deliciously filling.<br /><br />In all, a great place for a good benne masala dose and good old filter kapi. It is a very popular breakfast place over the weekends and can get very crowded. So getting there early is suggested. Be warned: they really do close after 11.30 am. They open again by evening and stay open up to 9.30 or so. It's a lovely place. With it's old world charm, simple people, prompt service and tasty food. So if you are in that neighbourhood, do stop by at this place. You will not be disappointed.<br /><br />In conclusion, Shruthi now owes me a dosa as she ate mine. What say shrutha? :)<br /></span><br /></span></span></span></span>Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-15272868739191546292009-05-07T12:15:00.007+05:302009-05-07T14:42:42.335+05:30IPL - Indian Political League<span style="font-family:arial;">Yes, I know it should have been Indian Premier League</span>.<span style="font-family:arial;"> But it is inconsequential to the drama taking place in India. The great Indian Election Drama. Again..i make a list, to all my detractors, lists are easier to read, fun to write and simple. No frills, no fuss.<br /> Since I am spending a lot of time attending meetings these days, in business jargon, the take away from this election is.<br /><br />1: First and foremost : All is fair in love, war and democratic elections.<br /><br />2: Tit for Tat : You call Bofors, I call Babri Masjid ( even though people have ceased to care about both or do not remember either). The Youth think bofors is a buffalo reform movement.<br /><br />3: Age is just a number: 80 is a boootiful age: Advani, Arjun singh, Manmohan Singh, Karunanidhi...etc etc. if you listen closley, you can hear them cough and singh...abhi toh main jawaan hoon....<br /><br />4: New takeaway : English is NOT good for development, nor are computers, so we use maatru basha . Ex of future usage - Apun hindi mein bolta, tupun hindi mein bolna, apun sab milke yeh disscushun karenge ki phoren investment kyon nahin aata idhar ko?<br /><br />5: Lessons on nationality: Sonia Gandhi was always an Indian. I think they registered her birth place Italy instead of Rae Bareli by mistake. Oh! goody! now things are more clearer.<br /><br />6: Lessons on discipline and tolerance: Manmohan Singh is a good prime minister. I do agree..he always listens to Sonia Gandhi.<br /><br />7 : National security: Pranab Mukherjee is a great writer of letters. Yes he is..that should explain the love letters he wrote to Pakistan after the 26/11 attacks in Mumbai.<br /><br />8 : Financial investment : Advani says they're getting India's money back from accounts in Swiss banks. Right! Expect the savings accounts of all the middle class to be taxed further.<br /><br />Have any more take aways? :)<br /><br /><br /></span>Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-46550510276843029922009-04-27T10:43:00.005+05:302009-04-27T11:13:12.584+05:30Ek do Teen...<p style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Poornima and Shruthi have tagged me for this.

Frankly speaking, there is nothing wrong with the song. It's just that the song is just about ok. But they have been playing to so often and raving about how great it is that I have been complelled to put together a list of his songs which are far better. For the record, I do not claim to be an expert on Rahman, nor is this an exhaustive list of his work. It is just an listof his songs that have made an impact on me.These are great songs, great compositions, and according to me, in the musical land of Rahman, Jai Ho is just average. Here's a list of Rahman's songs I think are great, please feel free to add any I might have missed. Here goes, in no particular order ,<br /><br />- The whole album from the movie Roja - I cannot choose any, every single song is outstanding.There is a Hindi version, but I feel the Tamil one really brings out the emotions. The whole album I think is one of his best works.<br />- Thiruda Thiruda - in Tamil - I love the song <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Konjam Nilavu</span> from the movie.<br />- Kadhalan - Tamil again - You should listen to<span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic"> Pettai Rap</span>. It is uninhibited fun. The album on the whole is good.<br />- Bombay - Again has versions in bothTamil and Hindi. Tamil's great, but <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Tu Hi Re</span> in Hindi is heart wrenchingly beautiful. <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">The Bombay theme</span> makes your hair stand on end.<br />- Iruvar - Tamil - I have not heard the whole album, but <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Narumugaye</span> is a song I just cant get out my head. It's timeless.<br />- Rangeela - Hindi - A fun album - every song is worth listening to more than once.<br />- Kadhal Desam - Tamil - I think I listened to <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">mustafa mustafa</span> day and night and never got bored. It broke a few records.<br />- Muthu - Tamil - <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Thilana Thilana</span> is something only Rehman could have made. Pure fun.<br />- Minasara Kanavu - Sapnay in Hindi - <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Vennilavae</span> is Tamil is great -<span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic"> Aawara Bhaware</span> is Hindi is joy unscripted. Feel like dancing every time that song is played.<br />- Daud - Hindi - I dont know how popular it is but I love the whole album. except probably zehreela pyar. The rest of the album has amazing variation in music.<br />- Dil Se - Also has the Tamil soundtrack. Since I have listened largely to the Hindi version, I'll refer to it. Has the unforgettable<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"> chaiyya chaiyya</span>,</span> Another 'make you feel like dancing in abandon' song. The whole album is simply mindblowing. Listen to<span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic"> E Ajnabi, </span><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"></span>soulful and beautiful.<br />- Earth - Hindi - A great movie - An an amazing soundtrack. You need to hear it. Especially <span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Raat ki</span> <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Daldal hain.</span></span><br />- Doli Saja Ke - Hindi - A cute album. <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; COLOR: rgb(0,0,0); FONT-STYLE: italic">Kissa hum likhenge</span> is the best of the lot.<br />- Taal - Hindi - Another masterpiece by Rehman - I really cant choose a favorite here. But I am a little bent towards <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Ramta Jogi.<br /></span>- Pukar - Hindi - I absolutely love his <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Kismet se tum. </span>It's an amazing song. The rest are great too. <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Kay sera sera </span>is a feast for both eyes and ears.<br />- Alaipayuthey - Tamil and Saathiya in Hindi - A great album in both languages - <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Snehithane Snehithane</span> in Tamil and <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">O humdum suniyo re</span> in Hindi is what I'd recommend. The whole album is great, in both languages. Do not miss out on it.<br />- Kandukondein Kandukondein - Tamil - I love the album, my personal favorite is still <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Kandukondein Kandukondein.</span><br />- Fiza - Hindi - Listen to <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Haji Ali</span> - I really do not have words to describe it. The - Zubeidaa - Hindi - Like the album but my personal favorite is <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Mehndi hai rachnewali</span>.<br />- Lagaan - Hindi - Outstanding music - <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">every single song</span> is great. Every.Single.One.<br />- Boys - Tamil - A total fun album. peppy and happy tunes. <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Boom Boom</span> is good fun.<br />- Yuva - Bilingual again - I know the Hindi songs. <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Dhakka laga Bukka</span> is inspiring.<br />- Swades - Hindi - Another of his outstanding albums. Absolutely love <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Yeh jo desh hai mera</span>. Makes you fall in love with India again. The whole album is amazing.<br />- Rang De Basanti - Hindi - Listen to <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Lukka chuppi</span> and <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Khoon chala</span> and tell me you dont feel a lump in the throat. This is Rehman at his best.<br />- Guru - Hindi - Really like <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Maiyya maiyya</span>, no complaints about the rest of the songs either.<br />- Jodhaa Akbar - Amazing soundtrack , personal favorite is <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Khwaja mere Khwaja</span>.<br />- Jaane tu ya Jaane na - Hindi - Another peppy, full of life, fun album. <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Kabhie kabhie aditi</span> will always make me smile.<br />- Ghajini - Made in Tamil and remade in Hindi - I personally think the Tamil songs are far better (which has been composed by Harris Jayaraj, Rehman only composed the Hindi version, I apologize for the error), but <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Guzarish</span> in Hindi is great and <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Kaise main</span> deserves a special mention.<br />- Delhi 6 - Hindi - I absolutely love this album. From <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Genda phool</span> to <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Rehna tu</span> to <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Kaala bandar</span> to <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic">Masakali</span>, I love every song. I think it got a bit overshadowed by the average Jai ho.<br /><br />These are the songs I love and will listen to anytime and anywhere. Rahman has a vast body of work, across languages. This is just a small glimpse. There are so many more I know I have missed. But these are the ones from the top of my head. The list may increase as <a href="http://full-meals.blogspot.com/">Shruthi</a> is always there to give inputs. So here's to Rahman, may he live 300 years and always compose music like he's been doing. :)<br /></span></span>Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-29639051981777192162009-03-11T15:05:00.002+05:302009-03-12T16:11:49.875+05:30Election time..again...So monkeeys..there's even a song for you guys now...kaala <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandar_Log">bandar</a> from Delhi 6...hehehehheeh. I think you guys were the inspiration :) I am on a roll and my mental block got sucked down a black hole. Applause!!!..what poetry!!!. Anyway, lets talk about something imporatant here. Elections! They are here..and monkeys...you need to go and VOTE. It's a duty every citizen has to do. Yes, it is, even thought you do your duty and pay service tax, income tax, road tax, employee tax, surcharge, indirect tax, sales tax and other duties. At least voting does not include paying tax (all right...going to vote on a hot day is taxing, but hey! you can probably get rid of Sonia Gandhi..what say?). So here's some basic rules for election season :<br /><br />- Dont watch any news channel for information, it's likely you wont get any. And there is a high possibility that you'll forget what you already know.<br />- Dont watch CNN IBN and their exit polls. Rajdeep Sardesai will just yell at you and you'll feel like a child who has behaved badly and is not getting any dessert.<br />- Get your voters id done...It is the only place where you can see if you have aged gracefully to 60. On the brighter side, you can start saving money for that expensive cosmetic surgery.<br />- Know your constituency. No, it is not identified by the nearest Coffee Day. There are specific details, <a href="http://jaagore.com/">Jaago re</a> <span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span>bandar.<br />- Know your MLA. Yes. Really. They have a face and an identity. Atleast you can describe who you are blaming.<br />- Do not trust <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit_polls">exit polls</a>. Poeple lie all the time about who they have elected or will elect, so that noone can point to them if Sonia Gandhi or Mamta Banerjee win again.<br />- Election also helps in keeping the mind active. How? you ask..Please keep track of the party coalitions and make me a graph. JDS, TPD, Samajwadi party, Bahujan Samaj Party. Choose any one and make a graph....Then you can tell if this is easy business.<br />- There will not be IPL matches on election days if one goes by how Lalit Modi looks. He looks like a lal bandar because he can see the plans for a new house on the French Riviera disappear. So no excuse to not go vote.<br />- Yes Sachin Tendulkar votes, even though he has tennis elbow and cramps. NOW will you go vote. Yes girls..<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghajini_%282008_film%29">Aamir</a> does it too, and he does not forget, contrary to recent opinion.<br /><br />So this election season, go and vote. Vote so that you can crib without feeling that you dont have a right. Voting gives one the the constitutional right (probably even legal) to crib and complain. So monkeys...find out your date with the country's fate. Wah! Wah!..Applause again.Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-70083448663220846762009-03-11T10:37:00.001+05:302009-03-12T16:10:06.328+05:30Who will Police the police?I know..I know..cliched and oft used sentence. But it does make sense. Who will do it? It is a question that needs to be answered, especially in today's world, where you can be attacked while having a coffee with a guy or for wearing jeans. Or even talking a walk with a guy is considered against 'Indian Culture'. Who taught them Indian culture anyway. Ask them who was Akbar's son and chances are 10 out of 10 will not know it. Or ask them what Gandhi did for a living, I'll bet they don't know. They have a distorted version of what is right and what is wrong and are hell bent on imposing their archaic views on the rest of the world, the brunt of which is being borne by women.The police in India, in my opinion have been spending too much time dragging women by hair in public on Valentine's day to pay attention to real issues.<br />Bangalore has recently witnessed a spate of murders of old people staying who were alone home. Most of these incidents occurred in broad daylight and in areas which are busy. So far there has been no breakthrough in any of these murders. It's like the police have wiped their hands off the issue. In another incident, when there was an accident and the people were getting beaten by drunk drivers, six policemen who were nearby refused to come to help, saying, it is not my problem. Not your problem?????? You are the police for goodness sake. It's your job to break up violence, not be a mute witness to it voluntarily. These are the same police who are more than happy to break up a party claiming such 'rave' parties are filled with drugs and liquor. But surprise! surprise..there were no drugs in the party, probably only liquor. I think it was just a normal party. The organisers should not have let it get as loud as it did because it was the complaints of the neighbours about the noise which bought the ' oh so responsible' police to their doorstep. Then they are at it again, moral policing, seems like that is the only thing they are good at.<br /> You are robbed and you still dont want to go to the police station because you think it's of no help. This speaks volumes about the trust the public has in the police. These are the same people who will provide security for IPL. The same pot- bellied, old, most of the times unhelpful police. I love cricket and IPL but I think this IPL will just end up being a nightmare for the public.<br /> Dont get me wrong, I think the police force is filled with amazing men and women who are brave, courageous and go out of their way to serve the country and the public and sometimes even give their lives while doing so . But for every one great police officer, there are 5 more who refuse to help a woman who is being felt up saying, there's nothing we can do, or saying probably she deserved it. Unfortunately, that is the kind of police one encounters on a daily basis. These are the very people who will run away at the first sign of trouble.<br />What does one do when the very people who are supposed to protect you turn against you. What does a woman do when a police officer is the one who raped her, where does she go from there? What does a man do when a police officer stands there watching him and his family getting beaten up by drunks and doesnt come to help? Cant there be a law to suspend such people from duty or subject them to a similar crime. They need to understand that when they chose to be in the police force, they have taken a oath to help and protect. I know most policemen are underpaid and overworked, so are millions of other people, for that matter most people in China. That is not an excuse, nor does being a police give them the right to be the moral police. They do not have the right to go ahead and preach something they do not practice. We have politicians for that. Atleast from them, we dont expect anything. Is there any way public and police cancome together to make a responsible, attentive and sensitive police force? What do you think?Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468454519347313730.post-3558940923503856082009-03-10T12:05:00.001+05:302009-03-12T16:09:16.921+05:30Back!oooook..been a long time...a whole 3 and almost half months. It sounds cliched, but I honestly did not have time to think and I have been a victim of writers block..It's a serious disease for writers or for people who have been looking at excel sheets and ppt's for a long time. I have been looking at a lot of the latter two in the recent past. So I have been afflicted with stage 3 of the disease..The good news is that it gets better from now, the bad being there will be a lot of poor jokes and innuendo's which will follow..So all the best. An update on what I was upto these last few days.<br /><br />- Ranted against the HR. Annoying useless set of people . Stopped for the time being as it got monotonous (truth being I ran out of really nasty things to say)<br />- The Americans came. So had a busy week.<br />- Played the Wii - Like the PS3..anyday.<br />- Learnt how to bake a cake...honestly..can bake a mean chocolate cake. Am obsessed with it now. (ah! probably should'nt have given that bit of information out)<br />- Cut my hair...real short...cant decide whether I like how the look or not. Sometimes I do, sometimes I dont, but most days I do.. :) I am a Rock Star.<br />- Still hate congress and their shameless vote bank and caste politics. They are like rabid dogs sniffing a target.<br />- Markets are so boring that they can put a hard boiled insomniac to a sound sleep.<br />- Probably will not watch Slumdog Millionaire till they stop playing Jai Ho..<br />- Feel that Rajdeep Sardesai needs to be transferred to Al- Jazeera or PTV at the rate at which he is obsessively covering Pakistan politics and screaming down at all of us.<br />- Feel that Rehman has composed far greater music than the Jai Ho thingie..his jingle for Garden (the sarees) was better than Jai Ho.<br /><br />The writers block refuses to budge...But it will..and it shall and it will..till then..Jai Ho...Maanasihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13521751994118627509noreply@blogger.com2
