Kahin to Hogi wo.....

One of the most beautiful songs I've heard recently. Everything is just perfect in this song. Javed Akhtar Abbas Tyrewala and A R Rehaman have given out a magical score .

Kahin to.. kahin to
Hogi wo,
Duniya jahan tu mere saath hai..

Jahan mein, jahan tu,
Aur jahan, bass tere mere jazbaat hai,
Hogi jahan subah teri,
Palko ki, kirano mein,
Lori jahan chand ki,
Sune teri baahoin mein..

(Jaane naa kahan wo duniya hai,
Jaane naa wo hai bhi ya nahi,
Jahan meri zindagi mujhse,
Itni khafa nahi..) - 2

Saasein kho gayi hai kiski aahon mein,
Mein kho gayi hu jaane kiski baahon mein,
Manzilon se raahein doodhti chali,
Kho gayi hai manzil kahin rahon mein..

Kahin to, kahin to,
Hai nasha..
Teri meri har mulaqaat mein,
Hoton se, hoton ko,
Chumti, o rehte hai hum har baat pe,
Kehti hai fiza jahan,
Teri zamin aasmaan..

Jahan hai tu, meri hassi,
Meri khushi, meri jaan…

(Jaane naa kahan wo duniya hai,
Jaane naa wo hai bhi ya nahi,
Jahan meri zindagi mujhse,
Itni khafa nahi..) - 3

Love story 2008....

Just too cute to handle...Its Genelia again after about 20times of Bommarillu, and i attribute it to providence that i got to watch her on the big screen. I still recall the two, deriding me, for having not watched the movie yet, was seething with anger then. Its peace now. Also Happy Birthday Sudks and thanks ,for giving such a fabulous treat. I am happy that you got the best bday gift, your new found sister(Kumbha ke mela saga again ..) and I pledge to take care of her :).
Although filled with cliche's, yet the movie scores in every aspect. The music has an ethereal touch, since a week, heart is just tuned to it. The ideal parents DCH just got more ideal in this movie,so much as to give a happy ending right at the start of the movie. Aditi can be said slightly more mature than Hasini. I entreat her to remain the same. Man, she's just too chubby!! The scene where in she say's "It was me who drops you home everytime" is too cute. Even her timely expletives are brilliant. Aditi and her brother's moments are the one's that rock,one where they talk about their friends and the other where he shows his room. Missed my sister a lot here!!!.

Loved the picturisation of the song Kahin to hogi...(although Mrs Sa and Mrs Ra hated it, its quite obvious,isn't it...). Rotlu's pepsi aka beer scene,his tu hi ree song sequence,conversation between Nasiruddin shah and his wife are also quite ludicrous. The best was "paanch saal kaise chale gaye pata hi nahi chala..Phone pe beta phone pee".

Whats this? A must say germinal notion!!! The concept is good, although the reasoning she gives at the end was anticipated. Life gives enough unsolvable problems, when dreams seems better than trying to capture the unobtainable (Totally left to perspective). Also still keeping my fingers crossed, about an impromptu trip at 3 A.M (DCH istyle mein) or a in a open truck filled with hay (nazrein milana nazrein churana...actually Bollywood's signature style). Desparately hoping someday will experience them.

As i want to end this here, my mind goes rummaging into the past, to find the Rotlu, Jigneesh, Bombs....And Aditi in my life. Did I meet them? Or did I fail to recognize them? Or are they with me currently, Or was it like the K-soaps, I enter the lift, they just pass out without noticing. Ohh Dreams again!! Lets keep them apart for the night....All together a thorough entertainer.Enjoy....

Jests of the captivated souls.....

Ya it was SR's quote recently," completion of 1 year", correct me if wrong five yrs ago it was the day I chose PESIT. Good or Bad left to perspective and destiny. It was sept 20th when i saw the campus first time. The architecture and the precincts are such that you fall for it at the first sight. Was it the only time I have fallen at the first sight?.... Well I need to introspect myself.. Got lot of mawkish messages while in 8th sem, its only now I'm feeling the pinch. Life changes..ya it has...Just a cerebration woke up, let me pen down some prominent reminisces.....

Firstly it the birthdays at hostel. That too if its the first birthday of the batch. Above that if its ur roomie's, its your duty to solicitly welcome everyone. This will be one hell of a day, mostly coz not just the bday guy but others too get more than they had expected. All guys will off course be extremely excited(some even carry dumbbells for God's sake!!! unknowing, what the future beholds them). The last kick and sometimes the continued bumps are just brilliant. Fests are also highly exhilarating , that too when a video camera is portrayed as geodiometer and people devoutly correcting their misjudgment. This can sometimes be the most recalled moment .The most thrilling will off course be the ragging drama. Pedants at library, a call from principal from hostel. Interesting.. rush to find yourself, and many other prudish studs obtruded into it. It will be a nightmare.But not to forget to thank the friends who stood by you in this time.

Max payne is a game that locks you into the CRT. Not just the player but spectators too. Well imagine someone shouting at the top of their voice Shoot!!!Shoot!!! It came!!!It came!!!. Well Half life is also commensurate in measure, but more jocularity can be added not by killing the aliens but aides actually. Trust me its a tried and tested funda. A myriad of games (Anaphase, GTA vice city, and other kiddoo car game,forgot its name) ,movies,videos and any damn kind of discourse can make life interesting at hostel. Just damn anything!!! Hostel is also one place where any tragic, recondite or belaboring movies can get a splendid flow. Well veer-zaara or Dhoom 2 can be the forerunners, How can one not comment when Priety slips on the bridge, or Ash says Sunnehri..Golden girl or Hrithik does a perfect theft (Did i say that actually)??

Morning movies are just fabulous. Isn't it? LOTR at around 1AM, Never try to prove Murphy wrong, warden is destined to enter the room. But yes he can be wrong, when warden refutes just one guy out of the entire crowd. Off course with me in the room, people get lucky(not my statement), but for some life is destined to be eclipsed(again I just paraphrased it). Desire to play computer games is insatiated, but however some prudery is expected, you never know when the mouse gets off your hand,and you just end up watching it. Songs are alternative motifs in the hostel. Some songs are just so soothing , that people can be so engrossed as to redefine being entranced, by their unforgettable gestures.

The car!!!. Yes dare to take its name again. The determination. Desire to do something different. Dreams. Ya it can be people's first venture....Man forget it. No need of revisiting the past if it does not interest you. The funny part was to leave people half way in majestic and rush to the college fest.

Well hostel memories cannot be penned. They are just myriad. Trying my best here and Will be continuing it soon...

Confessions of the dangerous mind....Part 1

Exactly 1 year ago, was the day i stepped into Cisco. An induction programme at Le Meridien, I was so waiting to peer into the future and see what's in store, today look back and smile. The place was highly embellish, great food and a full day of presentations, later we had a DJ night. This went on for a week, except that it was Chancery and Divyashree for further sessions. Almost the entire crowd was enthralled by my current second line manager's talk but the rest were just recondite or belabouring . A great accomodation at Humming bird ,plush AC rooms. Life was truely what it is meant to be. Ya hedonistic..you may call.

Further were the ICND training sessions at SA, commensurately abstruse and so were the Techtalks at our BU that followed. I still recall one of our manager taking us around the 1st floor and introductions that followed. We were exulting with the number of good looking girls around :). We were tagged as NCH. Here we met our mentors, who took us to a lab tour. The lab is formidable place for first timers. It seemed like a giant waterfall of cables. Our mentors were extremely patient in explaining what a switch or a server is? .The switch I only recalled studying in 7th sem the difference between it , hub and router (I used to hate that part as it was exremely confusing). They made us meet another guy, who we instantly identified as slightly nerdish. Then came across his presentation on dot1x. It was just fabulous, we were dumbstruck by his limpid understanding of concepts and his own way of explicating it. Then i can recall his explaining of a server with an analogy of rakthbeejaasura, his linux fundas and so so many other fundas. But i must say he used to harp a lot, during those pantry breaks. But when he taught us so much, such leniency seems no wrong :) . Bhu used to give us assignments, vinz explained DHCP server, ACS and so much more. What ever little knowledge on networking i have, is attributed to these people.

This went on for a month. Then came my first trip with the gang. It was Jog falls, Probably as i remember it was sudks who invited me, I instantly said yes. Dont remember much details of it. It happened somewhere in mid August. I knew only three people of the entire group, and above that a fresher.That must have been surely intimidating, but was a great trip for acquiantance. They were talking about HSBC, K2, some managers which made absolutely no sense to me at that time. Was more of the sort lost actually. But it was great that they tried to involve me into everyting.

I'm still in August so praising people a lot. And not to be mistaken that, I think you guys are still so good. Today's scenario is different :). And many more characters are yet to come.....
