B'day mathematics
here is the true case that happened with me.
_____________________________________
Nikhil = me,
Kriti = Nikhil's wife,
Gurudev = Himanshu = Nikhil's mentor/Big B,
Anu Ma'm = Himanshu's wife = Our most precious gem.
Simple but amazing b'day mathematics (Rishta kya hai tera mera??)
kriti's b'day - nikhil's b'day = anu ma'm b'day
ie
19 - 3 = 16
and
kriti's b'day + nikhil's b'day = gurudev b'day
ie
19 + 3 = 22
bas months yaad karne hote hain. so wo generally koi bhoolta nahi hai..
ab months kee bhi mathematics lo
Nikhil's b'day month = anu ma'm month + gurudev month
ie
august (8) = march (3) + may (5)
dekha kahan tak ka rishta hai hamara n aapka ;-))
mere sang sang,
aaya teri yaadon ka mela

We Shall Overcome / Hum Honge Kamyab
I still wonder how far had we reached.
Anyways, hope it inspires, again and again, me and all those who come across this.
(In English)
we shall overcome, we shall overcome
we shall overcome some day
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe
we shall overcome some day
we'll walk hand in hand, we'll walk hand in hand,
we'll walk hand in hand, some day
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe
we'll walk hand in hand, some day
we are not afraid, we are not afraid,
we are not afraid, today
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe
we are not afraid, today
we shall live in peace, we shall live in peace,
we shall live in peace, some day
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe
we shall live in peace, some day
(In Hindi)
हम होंगे कामयाब, हम होंगे कामयाब,
हम होंगे कामयाब, एक दिन
ओह, मन में है विस्वास, पुरा है विस्वास
हम होंगे कामयाब, एक दिन
हम चलेंगे साथ साथ, डाले हाथों में हाथ
हम चलेंगे साथ साथ, एक दिन
ओह, मन में है विस्वास, पुरा है विस्वास
हम चलेंगे साथ साथ, एक दिन
नहीं डर किसीका आज, नहीं-है भय किसीका आज
नहीं डर किसीका आज, एक दिन
ओह, मन में है विस्वास, पुरा है विस्वास
नहीं दर किसीका आज, एक दिन
होगी शांति चारों ओर, होगी शांति चारों ओर,
होगी शांति चारों ओर, एक दिन
ओह, मन में है विस्वास, पुरा है विस्वास
होगी शांति चारों ओर, एक दिन

Star Versus 'Star'
was cremated with full military honours at Thane on Wednesday
On Tuesday a news swept across all the news channels 'Sanjay Datt
relieved by the court'. 'Sirf Munna Not a bhai' '13 saal ka vanvaas
khatam' 'alhough found guilty for possession of armory, Sanjay can
breath sigh of relief as all the TADA charges against him are
withdrawn'
And then many experts like Salman khan saying 'He is a good person.
We knew he will come out clean' Mr. Big B 'Datt family and our
family have relations for years he's a good kid. He is like elder
brother to abhishek'. His sister priya Datt 'we can sleep well
tonight…it's a great relief'
In other news, Parliament was mad at Indian team for
performing bad; Greg chapel said something …..; Bomb scare in
gorakhpoor express; and Shah Rukh Khan replaces Big B in KBC and
Sonia asked PM to consider reducing petroleum prices (I wonder who's
the PM …anyways that is not the topic so leave it…) But most of the
emphasis was given on Sanjay Datt's "phoenix like" comeback from the
ashes of terrorist charges.
Surfing through the channels, one news on BBC startled
me, it read, Hisbul Mujahidin's Most wanted terrorist 'Sohel Faisal'
killed in anantnag, India. Indian Major leading the operation lost
his life in the process. Four others are injured.
It was past midnight, I started visiting the Indian
channels, the ones who are 'Sabse TEZ', but Sanjubaba was still
ruling. They were telling How Sanjubaba pleaded to the court saying
'I am the sole bread earner for my family' 'I have a daughter who is
studying in US who will look after her'. And then they showed how
sanjubaba was not wearing his lucky blue shirt while he was hearing
the verdict. Also how he went to every temple and prayed for last
some months. A suspect in Mumbai bomb blasts, convicted under armory
act…..was being made into a hero.
Sure Sanjubaba has a daughter; sure sanjubaba did not do
any terrorist thing as in bombing some place or hijacking an
airplane etc. Possessing an AK47 is considered too elementary in
terrorist community and also one who possesses an AK47 has a right
to possess a pistol so that again is not such a big crime; Sure
sanjubaba went to all the temples; Sure he did a lot of gandhigiri
but then….., people… please read on…….
Major Manish H Pitambare got the information from his
sources about the terrorists' whereabouts. Wasting no time he
attacked the camp killed the Hisbul mujahidin's suprimo and in the
process lost his life….. To the bullets fired from an AK47……
He has a wife and a daughter (just like sanjubaba), age …..18 months.
Major Manish never said 'I have a daughter' …before he took the
decision to attack the terrorist hide out in the darkest of nights?
He never thought about having a family and he being the bread earner
No news channel covered this since they were too busy hyping a
former drug addict, an actor in real and reel life, a suspect who's
linked to bomb blasts which killed hundreds. Their aim was to show
how he defied the TADA charges and they were so successful that his
conviction in possession of armory had no meaning. They also
concluded that his parents in heaven must be happy and proud of
him……
Parents of Major Pitambare are still on this earth and
they have to live rest of their lives without their beloved son. His
daughter won't ever see her papa again.
Definition of a Star has changed Major… it really has.
So sanjubaba always has a gun in every one of his movies then in
real life if he has an AK47 then what's the big deal we are used to
see him with some ammunition without it he's just a 49yr old hero so
he did it for us…..so that we feel normal;
Even if one of the bullets from one of such AK47's took a Real
Star's life …….
but sir bole toh ….. tension nahi leneka. Aapun ko thoda bura
laga. Apun pure din aapke baarein mein socha. Sach bataun kya aapun
dukhi matlab ki senty ho gaya isliye ye likha.
Baaki sanjubaba…..bole toh… congrats…aapko salmaan bhai
ne kya certificate diya hai …ekdum raaapchik… kal jab unka case
(haan woich hiran ki shikar wala) aaye toh aap bhi aisaich bolna unke
baarein mein. Abhi aaj paper mein aaya ki woh parliament mein
'lagey raho munnabhai' dikhane wale ….us din dekhna bhai…… pure
parliament mein sab saarein sansad honge. koi walk out nahi karega
par bhai uska koi gurantee nahi hai kya pata …..agar hamare sansad
indian cricket team ke selection pe lad padein?..... . Kya bhaai
point hain naa ? AAre haan apun ko yaad aaya ….woh sansad pe hamla
karnewala koi afzal tha ….use abhi fasi hui …ya nahi hui …..jaane do
apun ko kya…… kuch log marein ….. sansad ko bachatein hue …but bhai
unki daughters toh india mein hich sikhti hain naa aapke jaise amerika
mein nahi toh tension nahi leneka………
Sorry major, wo kya hai naa logon ko shudh hindi samztich nahi
aajkal bole toh logon ka hriday parivartan hone ke liye aisahich
likhna padta hai. But major….. ab ye kaise hoga aaapun ko nahi pata
log boley saala lagey raho dekhke puri janta ab change hoegi koi
rastein mein nahi thukega ….. koi zhut nahi bolega koi kisi ko
pareshaan nahi karega desh mein gandhigiri aayegi…. par major apun
ko doubt hai….. pata hain kyon ?
….. rang de basanti aayi thi tab bhi log aisehich kuch toh bolein they…
Finally Sir, to my generation there is no greater hero than one who
laid his life in the name of this great nation. Hence Sir, I salute
you. You are the real Star, Vande mataram.

Are we Indians for or in against of terrorism??
I was so happy that finally verdict has been given by Supreme Court of India, that Afzal responsible for carrying out terrorist attack near premises of Our Parliament, has been given a death sentence.
I was happy that finally law and order was capable of bringing culprit to justice.
It didn't took much long and political parties already stole my happiness regarding this.
I feel that India is really not against terrorism. How come political parties and govt. of India waste so much time on discussing whether Afzal needs to be punished or not. I wonder why is this happening. India is not yet developed country, there are so much responsible tasks to be finished first, but still those tasks never come in focus of the ruling party. It feels like that they had nothing better work to do and just need to bring up some silly issue for talk at coffee time.
Attack on the Parliament is a direct attack on the country. If the Afzal is given forgiveness, it will reflect that all the terrorist attacks that had happened on Indian soil can also get away.
No country in the world will forgive anyone for attack on their Parliament. Why aren't the people of India also united against Afzal being granted forgiveness??
I wish that if that attack on Parliament would have had seen some casualities in the political parties, then these parties would have had realised how dreadful attack it was. The brave heros who sacrificed their lives to defend and keep their ministers safe, did all this for waste.
How can one even think of forgiving Afzal? I really don't see a point.
All these people who are trying to get Afzal are really in the favour of terrorism in India. It doesn't matters to them what is the terrorist act like, where it was carried and who were all in danger. They just don't have enough brains to think deeper.
Attack on Parliament could have had led country into real political trouble, with all the ministers being killed in the attack. That was the motive of carrying out the terrorist attack, and if the govt. of India can't see this. I believe they are nothing more, than just a group of morons.
Forgiving a person responsible for carring out terrorist attack in the heart of the country and right under the nose of the govt. of India, would reflect that we are not united against terrorism in India. It would be a shame for us, and atleast I will feel really embarrased that we Indians haven't had enough guts and courage to stand up against terrorism. All the peace talks and war against terror talks made my govt. of India are nothing, they should mean nothing to the people of India also.
We would be kept on being attacked again and again, and I guess in these situations Gandhigiri is just a foolish thought. You don't need to be non-violent for this long that entire population of India vanishes. Its good that one starts with non-violence and peace loving ways of tackling the problem, but if that hasn't had helped at all its better to fight it with force. Or else are we Indians just impotent and eunuchs??
I wish and hope that Afzal is hanged till death. I would have had preferred hanging him right infront of the Parliament.
