The Man , a prophecy which came true

Irwing Wallace wrote the engrossing novel "The Man" on 1963. Its the story of the most unexpected man on earth becoming the most powerful man on earth. It is the story of Douglas Dillman, a black and the Senate President (pro tempore - which means temporary) and 4 th in line for the presidency becoming the president of the united states of america because all the previous 3 are incapacitated and the actual senate president post is vacant and is filled by this senator for the time being.

The novel then covers how america is coming to terms to the idea of a black president and his trials and tribulations.

Irwing wallace did not dream about a black president not even in his wildest dreams. Thats why he wrote this fiction to try to imagine how this impossible event would play out when nobody dared to think about that.

After 45 years, one movie and teleserial....
It became true. It took the americans two wars, an imminent collapse of the wall street - the symbol of the market capitalism, 8 years of stupidity, a divided world to shed the notion of color and select the "Messaih of Hope",Barack Hussaien Obama as the 44 th president of the United States and the prophecy came true.

I hope that Mr.President does not have to suffer the same as Douglas Dillman. Lets see what he can do...

The sunset which came in that Indian Autumn ....

Ganguly and Kumble : Chalk and Cheese
They can add this analogy to any English text book. Two different personalities, two different characters but one unflinching goal -> to see India win. These two stalwarts did everything in their capacity to see that happening for the past 13-18 odd years. Some times that included taking your shirt off and mouthing four letter words, bandaging your jaw so that it will not drop off in the middle of the pitch, trying to bring the cricketing spirits which were not there with at most dignity. If some body asks to define these two people in one word , i would say "dignity" to kumble and "passion" for ganguly. One is a trained mechanical engineer by profession and had to work hard for everything and the other did born with a golden spoon. The "God of offside" had everything in life. But what unites these two spirits is their commitment to the game and they served it well. Adieu...
It is kinda sad to see them go but inevitable though. Thanks for everything you have done.
Very few people get the chance to ride into the sunset... We just saw a couple of heroes doing that. This indian autumn is fortunate to have that sunset...

Beautiful turn...

So many things , at the same time. Life suddenly started happening.
Don't know how to explain too. Just basking on the experience fully. But life certainly have taken a beautiful turn. It all started with India winning the second test, Sachin's record breaking stint, Kumble retiring, M.Vijay's debut, Ganguly's hundred and excellent run in the series and then his retirement and to crown that india's series win. Then sabari got married.Abhay's progress with his Ph.D thesis for which he has worked hard for 6 years, Obama win and then
"IT" happened...
All in a fortnight ... So many good things ....

Pandavas ... Explained

In mahabharata, the pandavas were the embodiment of 5 important qualities which helped them to win against the evil. They are

Yudhistrar - Dharma
Bheema - Strength
Arjuna - Unwavering focus
Sahadeva - Knowledge and skill
Nakula - Gentleness and warmth under all circumstances

They had the divine grace with them in the form of Krishna and without which their qualities would not have bore fruits. It is the divine which helped them defeat the evil kauravas.

Keep the Magik alive ... rock on

Life is a magic isn't it ? It throws the most unexpected thing at the unexpected moment. RockOn!! is a movie which symbolizing that fluidity. The band, the dreams, the love , the moments all down the drain in one moment... And then going through the motions of life as zombies with whatever life has thrown on them. Then one fine day , the most unexpected person , the wife who is not part of the past senses something wrong with farhan and digs deep and as life would have it, it throws the friends back together. Then what happens... MagiK

Magic with a K. Are not we all see ourselves in them ?. Some times not doing what we really love to do. Isn't it? Life is just that MagiK Hat , We might not like what we get out if all the times.

Keep the magik alive....
No matter what, as you know, the hat might throw that dream on you again...
Go watch RockOn!! for some cool music and for those reminiscing moments of life which we might have left back ....

Saroja , Movie review

Very different movie altogether. Good comedy. No heroes , that was a big relief. Good comedy and narration. Story is very predictable but handling is good. Slick editing and nice songs. Must Watch. Venkat Prabhu has proved that he is not a one movie wonder. Keep it up.

Have we dropped of our balls ?

So now the operation BAD is completed successfully. What next ? Our Prime minister (Puppet Man) singhji and our internal affairs minister Mr.Shivraj Patil will issue the usual rhetoric of "calm and sensible manners these hard times" (which means do not venture out, stay put in your home,close down the malls,close down the cinema halls etc) while they both would be busy doing household chores of so called "Sonia Antonia Maina" to score brownie points. What kind of a government is this ? Where is the action ? It was conveyed by the Gujarat Police to the government of India, the NSA, the delhi police that NCR would be the next target. What kind of action have been taken on this piece of intelligence?

Is it really run by men? I have only one question to Mr.Shivraj patil. Have you dropped off your balls ? If you can not secure the basic security of the citizens of this country, get the hell out your post. DO NOT GIVE your SECULAR BULLSHIT. ACT on these Islamic terrorists. The patience of the average citizen is running out. If you do not act on this, the people of india would soon. If NSA is ok with it , then why not bring back POTA or some tough acts of law ?. What is being done to improve the intelligence infrastructure ?

When this government is going to stop the illegal immigration from bangladesh? Why dont these muslims stay in their own MUSLIM country? Isn't a paradise on earth? What has this government done to stop that ? It does not do anything because the congress government wants to increase their muslim vote bank. Cheap and yuckkie. Are not they a burden on our economy. If we are not able to provide to our own people , whats the point of taking in these illegal immigrants ? By the look of it , soon Mr.Shivrat patel would be booted out of the office.
