Dhoom Machale.... 2

I saw Dhoom2... .... I saw Dhoom2... ..... I saw Dhoom2... ... I saw Dhoom2...
I saw Dhoom2... ....I saw Dhoom2... .........I saw Dhoom2... ............I saw Dhoom2... ...............I saw Dhoom2... ............I saw Dhoom2... .....aw Dhoom2...
I saw Dhoom2... .........I saw Dhoom2... ...............I saw Dhoom2... ..........I saw Dhoom2... ...................I saw Dhoom2... ..........I saw Dhoom2... .........I saw Dhoom2... ..............I saw Dhoom2... ....I saw Dhoom2... ...................I saw Dhoom2... ......I saw Dhoom2... ........ I saw Dhoom2...

Ok.. now tat u got the point..... I really saw Dhoom2... J.... it s not tat cool and al.. it s got a really dumb storyline. But cool actions... ok. It starts like this... in a desert.. there s a railway line... a 4 compartment train which s being occupied by a queen and her grandson and her servant and a magnificent diamond crown... hrithik(Aryan) lands on top of the train in a parachute and disguises himself as the queen and steals that crown.. leaving behind a symbol... ‘A’. then... back in Mumbai... uday chopra(ali akbar) and abhishek(Jai Dixit) sit and solve cases... uday is a sub inspector though his slang doesn’t sound like tat of one. And enters bipasha basu I (Sonali or something) another police official.. trying to solve the case.... aby finds tat the thief A steals on dates tat r concurrent.. I mean the date of his last theft added up wil give his next one. Also the places joined together by dots in the world map wil leave the impression A.... which means.. the next place wil be Mumbai.

The trio try to figure out.. A strikes again at the TAJ OF JEWELS... steals the diamond using hi tech stuffs and escapes.... sure enough wen he is leaving the country, a news announcement says tat A wil be striking again at the palace of someone.. stealing away the 4000 year old sword. Curious to find out who the other A is... he goes there to find Ash(Sunhari) there....struggling to steal the sword. He helps her and later.. after the song Crazy kiya re.... A accepts to teach ash the techniques of stealing... then.... this female is a small time thief(????????) who now has become the police informer... they leave to some place(coudn get the name properly) followed by aby and uday...there they meet bipasha basu II (monali)... I forgot.. uday had crush on bipasha basu I.. now he has crush on bipasha basu II...

anyways... A asks ash if she trusts him... she says yes... she asks if he trusts her.. he asks her to come for practice the next day to a cliff.... and there he says he trusts her.. and asks her to jump... she does it anyways.. and they are held by a rope...ya.. again.. aby meets A and they have some fake introduction.. then.... ash tells them tat he s going to steal in the ... museum? Must be. So... A sees it.. and he inserts one bullet in a gun and then.. they both take turns trying to shoot each other.. ash and A I mean... but ash finally says... I love u.. and tries to kill herself. And then they both go to steal... and after successfully accomplishing the task... run away in tat 25 lakh racer bike( it s really awesome.....) and uday and aby follow them... and atlast aby catches tat A and uday... ash.

A says... Kya koi kisise itna pyar kar sakta hai ki uski jaan le le.... he says this some 3 times and ash shoots him.....then.... ya. After 6 months.. ash is seen running an eat-out... and there.. A wil be found. Aby comes there and says.... I wair=ted for so long to get ur body... u fell off the cliff... mujhe bura laga... u both fell in love.. mujhe acha laga.... par tumhari laash nahi mili... mujhe bakwaas laga..... A handles over the details of the goods and aby leaves them and goes.... anyways.. story s awesome.... I mean the picturisation. Uday and bipasha basu II marry,.... aby s already married to raima sen... ya... the bike scenes are not tat effective... and dhoom2 track is awesome.... and crazy kiya re is good.... but it s really worth watching...

VIVAAH---- Re-Entry

Prem, as usual, is the hero who s working with his dad to make their business flourish.. poonam is a simple madhupur town belle. There is a common factor, ‘uncle’ who sees poonam and decides tat she wil be the best suitable bride for prem. Poonam is brought up by her chacha....and chachi doesn like her tat much cause she has her own daughter to take care of. Prem on the other hand firsts want to establish himself in the field. But his dad (anupam kher) says tat the best inspiration for a man an be provided only by his wife. At last they come to madhupur and as expected both poonam and prem like each other very much. The engagement ceremony takes place immediately and (shahid looks so cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute) .

Prem s family go back home... the two family decides to meet up and spend a week together in the farm place at somsarovar. Oh ya.... during engagement, chachi feels tat they will ask for more dowry. Prem s dad says tat he only wants poonam and a coconut and Rs.101. and the marriage date is fixed six months away....so.. back at samanpur, prem and poonam do nice romance with eyes.. I mean pyar develop ho jaata hai.

On the day of departure, prem gives poonam a cellphone which she declines... so these two keep in touch thru letters and tat old style black telephone. And ya... in between, prem gives her a D’damas diamond pendant and then says.. use accept kar liya, ye gained ke phool ka haar accept karogi?(how dumb?????) anyways she accepts and song follows... beech mein, prem s bro and bhabi r also dancing. Bro comes out of water and pulls bhabi inside water. Prem too comes out, comes near poonam and says... daro mat.. main bas towel utane aaya...!!

ya.. ok. So fter he goes back to his place he calls her up and says..
1) bhaiya office room aaye... tension me the. Poocha kaun Tokyo jaayega? Maine kaha main jaaonga.....

she smiles....

2) main office gaaya... tension me tha. Bola... mujhe madhupur.. aaaa.. Tokyo jaana hai par akele nahi. Poonam se aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..... project jo karna hai. Dar lag raha hai.

She laughs......

So he goes there and comes back after 3 months. And then immediately arrangements for marriage begins. To celebrate prem s victory, there s a party and poonam comes to their place. He takes her to their would be bedroom... and says... after a long crapping.. I keep on telling this is my table, my cot and al. I forgot ki u r coming after leaving ur family for me... she interrupts.. for us... so sweeet la. Then.. ya.

On the day of marriage chachi still refuses to be happy. Chacha s angry and sad. Suddenly there s a fire from the crackers and whole place gets caught by fire..(???) I don think sentence is proper... anyways.. poonam comes out, goes in again to save her chachi s daughter, gets burned below her stomach... so they ask the barati s not to come. And chacha s supposed to sign a paper for operation wen prem says I wil sign it as her husband and marries her there itself... poonam anyways says.. don soil ur life etc.. With prem s dad s help they get best treatment for her, and she s sort of ok. On the day of first night, this guy comes and says, I have to dress ur wounds and she s feeling shy!!!!! For goodness sake? Anyways, he lifts her, goes to balcony and looks at chand and says... mere do poonam hain?( hey bhagu!!!!!! Itna bhi pakaoo mat)..

Girls can watch it for shahid s super sweet cute face.
Guys can watch it for amrita s dazzling smile.
Oldies for the usual mera family mahaan formula!

Student Investors are a gaining lot!

Times are such that no one is behind in earning money. Be it a man of 45 who still has a few years to finish off his duty or a fresher who just joined an organization. Even students are not far behind in this ‘earning-money-mill’. The caliber of the students have increased to such an extent that they are being offered money for the part-time services they render. Not only this, they get their pocket money, they win cash awards, they are recruited by administrative centers while they are still studying. With money in hand, they have various options to give a thought. Either they can save it up in small scheme savings in Post offices or traditional banks, or they can always spend them in a jiffy over some X-Boxer games or movie DVDs. Yet another wise option that is doing its round is that of investing them in Markets.
In the following paragraphs, you will see the upshot of some student investors who are lucky enough to be rolling in money. Before that, how do we invest? Or what do we invest and where?

Whether you are still in college or starting your career, getting into the markets early is crucial to your financial success. One way to get your feet wet and learn more about investing is to take part in an investment club. An investment club is a group of people who learn about investing and, sometimes, actively invest their money in a pool combined with the other members. What makes investment clubs better than investing on your own is that investing as part of a club allows you to get different perspectives as you discuss different stocks and why certain stocks appeal to different people. It is almost like playing ‘Monopoly’. Only, we are dealing with real money. One can also start with an online savings account where you can earn a better interest rate than at a traditional bank.

Nevertheless, how does one go about the whole ‘investing processes’?

Rob Santry, who has been an investor since his sophomore, attributes much of his investing success to his involvement with the National Association of Investors Corporation in his statement to the ‘Young Money’ website answers our question. “First, you should sign up for the Virtual Stock Exchange or a similar stock market recreation. This way you can learn how to take risks and practice selecting stocks without risking. Once you have opened up your own account and are ready to invest, you have to be able to find which stock you want to invest in. There are many up-and-coming companies to invest in because such companies including Apple, Quicksilver, Google, Starbucks, American Eagle, and the like target younger adults more.”

Ravi, a final year Arts student with the Ruparel College says, “It is advisable to research a company's financial performance, compare it with competitors, and determine if they are trading at a fair price. If one likes holding his stocks for the long term, he has to make sure he does not have to worry about a company's "existence" over the next five years.” He has been successful in investing his money into the Google systems.

However easy the process may seem, one needs to be very careful. There are varied versions of opinions from people of different sector. Arun Venugopal, doing his II B.Com says, “I would prefer to invest in new companies which will have steady dividends and also FMCGs.”
“I earn money by typing projects and doing DTP for other students and save it up. To pull up a stunt like that to invest in shares it would be shear stupidity”, says Shyam sashidharan, who is doing his III B.E in Rajagiri engineering College.

Vishal, who just now started his career in L&T as a chief engineer is of the view that investing in markets have various options. It can either be stocks, bonds, both with fixed investments and limited return, buying parts of a company and selling them for the same rate at which u bought them. Sometimes, you may also go for equities. It depends on the age too. For a guy like me, its better to have 50% or more of total investments in shares and equities, 20% in National certificates or LIC, another 30% in bonds. And for a guy of 40 years of age, the risk taking will reduce and he will have only 30% or some of his total Investments in equities. Rest will be in LIC, Bonds and others which will assure him money.”

He also noted that one of the best times to put money in the stock market is after periods of large declines. However, regardless of how the market is shaking out, all three stated that if one does decide to invest, diversification is the ‘Mantra’.For those just starting out, one option is to consider is mutual funds, notes Jeyachandran, an agent with the LIC. The best thing you can do is to educate yourself. Listen to everyone, but think for yourself. The other option is to start saving first through Small Saving Schemes in post offices. However, there is a scope for growth in investment. In addition, there is a ‘risk-Factor’ to be taken in account. Even those who struggle to be investing professionals make mistakes. So go ahead and start to learn from your mistakes and your successes!

The Saga of Culturals......

In my previous write-up, I had promised a deeper insight of what I feel about culturals. So, here it goes....

College life is undoubtedly the most important, the most blissful part of a student. All those leg-pulling, nick naming, route-pottufying acts are inseparable. And college culturals.... chance e illa. It s jus the wonderful time of the college life.

Since I have started talking about the culturals, let me stick to it. We can actually divide the whole ‘culturals-thing’ into 3 phases.

1) Pre- Culturals

2) Culturals

3) post-Culturals

The pre-culturals notion has various parts. First comes the tension of deciding who does what. And let me tell u... it s not tat easy. The so-called ‘rivalry’ (I sometimes do wonder how come no one takes up a knife and stabs the other) and those u-r-doing-it-wrong attitudes... Gosh! The worst part is yet to come... MONEY. Everyone has to pool in money to meet the needs. Now.. Don think tat we r running a family. We r jus going to participate in a 2-day culturals. Ya.. So we go around collecting money (mind u.. nothing less than 500 is taken).

Then, there is this selection of the teacher. Rules say that no external help is allowed in the culturals. But students never listen. They go on a hunting spree and.. There is a rumor. Prabhu Deva will be helping our team the next culturals. Isn’t that great? Shucks man... the best part is, after paying 8K to the choreographer... we don’t even bother to attend the practice. What is more important? Practice or a movie in Sathyam?

The Culturals... The D-Day arrives at last. With great pomp, u try to enter the gates and a volunteer stops you and says... get an Rs10 worth pass! It is of course not a big deal for those who have already dandam-azhuthified 500 bucks. But still...U bunk classes.. u have ur excuse-“mam, I have to practice for street-play!” u of course don want us to loose out. Do u mam?

Its not over yet. After entering the stadium, to your dismay you find half the seats occupied by some other department and u can of course catch a glimpse of few heads belonging to ur department standing and fighting to grab a few rows.

The best part is... u can watch ur favorite star close by. But of course, everyone can not be a lucky dog to find a bone. Chances r there that after ur star enters and gives a small ‘enthusiastic’ speech and after that very instance, he might very well reduce to a big zero!

The post-Culturals period is also very significant. You know u haven won. U know ur team did not keep up to the blotch. U know ur money has gone down the drain. U know ur star has lost his value. U know u will not be able to bunk classes at least for an year. U know those days of fighting and breaking up and tearing ur hair apart has no significance now... and u still don know y u r collecting more money to pay up ur choreographers... yes! This is the post-Culturals trauma.

Yet, the team spirit is one thing, which keeps the culturals going. No matter what happens, when ur friends r there to support u, tat s the biggest success of all the slogging you have done. Now, as a would-be final year student, I resolve that I will never collect huge sums and will never involve outsiders and will strive hard to ....... make my dept participate and win. Long live my ambition!

my statement....

this has nothing to do with any of my feelings or emotions. i jus wanted to state something here... actually.. this is an aftermath of an event which jus completed itself. here it goes... culturals is .... an act of inanity. i second this motion myself. for more details... read my next post which will be put up soon.

Am not wierd!!!!

My friends think am way too philosophical. They feel that I need some air and that I have to go out, freak about and do all the partying stuff. Any clue why they think so? Simple. Because my blog is Moksha-No Revival. Just because my blog has write-ups on salvation and some funny things written in a serious tone, they think tat I need to get going in life. Am glad I got such friends who truly care for me. But I don know why I should not talk about salvation and wastage of money. For goodness sake, am 18! Am a major and I have all the rights to speak about it.

However, it s not the only reason why people think I need help. Let me tell u some more instances.

For this vacation, I had taken a trip o the north. I visited Badrinath, Kedarnath, Haridwar and Rishikesh and other such places. First I had gone to Agra and then from there to Delhi and then to the other places mentioned above. Out of all these places, I found Badrinath and Kedarnath more interesting. Those snow topped mountains and curving valleys and the god placed above so high... I jus couldn’t resist it. I got many Jap malas from there and started wearing them outside. And people started imagining that I had become a sanyasin! (Though I had secret plans of becoming one...). It is true that these places fascinated me. But I liked the historic buildings too. And the time which I ought to have spent by shopping with my family, I was in the historical association instead... burning my nose in those scripts in the library.
Now, does this mean tat I need help? Am just pursuing my passion. What s wrong with u guys re? My friends and cousins fussed over this and made a big deal out of it! My dad had to force me out to Sarojini market... and of course, after tat I couldn’t stop myself from buying stuffs.

But the real problem is... my friends think am a nerd. Well.. not exactly.. but a nerd of third or fourth order.

i have a declaration to make- am not wierd or out of my mind though i might seem like one. But nothing is wrong with my life.. of course its a disaster and within 2 years will be in deep pits. But still i have wonderfull companions to make it ...ummm... great.

It is true tat I have cut down on my outings and am fed up of my stupid life, which is right now burdened with a big problem. Of course, it doesn’t mean I need help... or do I? No. I don’t need help.

Oh this marriage....!

I keep wondering wat should go in today s entry. But wonders of wonders... I don get a thing. So.. am going to discuss a serious issue which might have no relevance to u all. But still here I go....

When a girl becomes 18, everyone in her family goes on fretting.. “oh! She s come of age. I should give her off in marriage soon.”. I just don understand the logic. Why should she not live independently? Doesn’t she have a life of her own? Shouldn’t she actually try to live life in her own terms? Shoulnt she test her knowledge and earn her own living? Every girl cannot be dependent on a guy for her future na. I pity those poor girls who have to undergo this torture. First of all, she has to face her parents who will bombard with questions like
“Do u like tat john who keeps talking over the phone?” or
“Listen. I don want u to go out with ur guy friends. No one wil marry u if u roam about like this. Got it?”
“why do u stay awake like this late in night? Are u in love?” or something even like this.. “ anirudh.. ur Attai Paiyyan or mama paiyyan, would u like to marry him?”

how can a girl answer all these sorts of questions? She is not even given a chance to choose her hubby. Why should u marry? First of all, u will have to face the same old faces everyday(lol:p). Ok. If some problems crop up between u and ur hubby, u cant go and cry to ur parents cause they wil be awkward to talk to their in laws cause it wil sometimes affect thir relationship too. or there is always this chance of them feeling bad tat they have pushed u into a deep pit.Then, u wil get bored seeing the same old person everyday ..i mean.. got my point right? u cant be seeing him day and night, nursing him like a baby. then.. Imagine he is a well organized person and ur shelf... is a place from even an elephant could come out without any problem.. I mean to say tat u wont even realize tat it has made ur shelf his abode... then.. can u even expect ur life to be in one piece? Then again... if u fail to please ur mother in law... she will go on and on and on about how careless u were and wat ur parents had thought u, now with full rights tat u r her bali ka bakra. So.. jus think. Do u want to make a big blunder? As far as I am considered... it s total waste of LIFE.

If you would ask me... it s better to go on with ur life as it is. If at all ur parents force you to marry... tell them that u wil go on with ur life and if any person is willing to thaalikattify... he should let u be as u r. or else... it s better to remain as a spinster. After all it is ur life and marriage has no right to change it. Right?

How absurd can culturals get?

Am not here to proclaim that there should be no entertainment programmes for the college students. Neither am I here to declare that inter departmental and collegiate programmes are utter crap. In fact, I jus love them. Well...who wouldn’t love to take part in them? When you have it, you just have to flaunt it. Right? The ramp walks and stage shows, the musical nite and the kuttattam, and of course the celebrity guests (One keeps wondering if it will be Surya-Jyothika or simbu-nayanthara this time)... all this is a part of our college life. However, one thing upsets me seriously. How much bucks should one spend on this gala of 2 days? As far as my college is concerned, its Ur wish. If you have more bucks to spare... you have more chance to win! As a rule, it says that the students should seek no professional help. Rules are meant to be broken of course! So... here we go. Involving everyone... not even sparing the Britto’s troupe. Then.. go around spending loads on the costumes which u can neither return to the shop nor wear it again for social purpose( it will be either full of chamki works or will be in such contrasting adikkara color tat u r sure to attract buffalos!). Then, I don really know how many of them cooperate with each other. Some sort of fight is sure to crop up. Also, you select the piece you are going to perform a day before the D-Day and practice it for a few hours and then lo! You create wonders on stage. Is this is what we are waiting for? Is this what we are spending on? Is this what we are exaggerating much about? Is this what we call culturals? If so... then I would merely call it an act of inanity.

Ooh Aah India!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooh Aah India!!
Come on India... dhika do....!!
Join the Blue Team....!!I have heard enough of them. As a matter of fact, am totally sick of it. I may not sound patriotic. But all am bothered for now is to device a strategy to actually make India win. Right from the days I started watching Cricket, I may not remember Sachin’s century or Dravid’s sixes and boundaries. All I remember is the cheap gimmicks of the Ad companies. What good did the Pepsi’s Blue Team do to the ICCI trophy? We lost miserably at the hands of Australia (the same happened during the World Cup too). Am not blaming anyone for this. However, I just wish, instead of wasting your time in posing for these Ads, which already have enough publicity, how about practicing worthwhile??????????????????

When the days are hot....

This may sound eccentric, but take my word. Nothing can be as pleasant as a warm sunny day. Rainy mornings are depressing. I don know about others but as far as I am concerned, nothing can be as irritating as this so called ‘pleasant rainy day’. I do understand the advantages of rain. You get enough water for irrigation, scarcity of drinking water will be solved and dams will over flow and all. But, come on people, have you ever thought how frustrating it is to put on a rain coat while driving, running to catch your bus in those slushy roads, making your seat wet.. I mean your dress will be drenched and you end up in your class...soaked to the skin! This is not I pray for early in the morning.

In this weather, I would prefer to have a hot cup of coffee, followed by another and another and another one. I would not risk my day even for a million dollar. Imagine, just imagine, in case, in a hurry to get hold of your bus, u trudge a poor dog’s only tail and it will perceptibly chase you. Do you want to run a marathon in the morning of a rainy day? On the contrary, if it were a sunny day, the climate would be so inviting! One simply cannot sit in their home. Pleasurable jogs followed by a cup of coffee (I would like it hot anyways) and then a comforting bath in the shower and then start your day’s job. Ah! This is ecstasy people. If only it would rain in the afternoon, I wouldn’t mind it. See, you are already in the college or your workplace. You can enjoy the downpour through the windowpanes. You don’t have to get wet. Then, also it s pleasant when it rains in afternoons or evenings. It is romantic! Think... which one would you prefer? I always fancy it when the days are hot...

why moksha?

Let me first thank my friend ananthu whatever. she was my.... inspiration? i should tel you. i was just going through her blog and lo! i thought... y dont i write one too? but my brother first wanted me to give him 3 reasons as to y i should start one. as expected, i gave him 3 reasons.. however absurd it might sound, i put it down here
1) am a journalist.. well.. a student of journalism.
2) i had plans to start one!
3) i have every right to start one.

what else could he do ? he said... "i leave it to the readers of your blog.. god save them'. so... now am here.. with this blog.
my first job was to create one. i went online and found this site. I had a terible time creating one. whoever said that two person cannot hold the same display name? it took me 10 min to find one. then, it asked for a name.. my cousin sitting beside me, though 10 year old, has a great brain. he asked me, when wil u give naamakaran(naming ceremony) to your blog. as am not used to such insults, i set my teeny weeny(courtesy:Lekshmi) to job. after a huge brain storming session with my heart, my soul and my conscience.. i named it MOKSHA. now, why MOKSHA? that s becoz, i want to attain salvation as soon as possible. i dont want to spend a long 60 more year in this earth with nothing important to do. till i have set foot on this perishable earth, i have cried, made others cry, made others laugh but never did so myself. tortured my parents to get this and that for me. probably reduced them to paupers by joining this course. and.. believe me.. i have done nothing for them. now, don think am getting emotional.. am getting frustrated. wat s there in this world tat make people crave for more life? i think it s better for everyone to be off with their life and rest in peace. and i don want to come again as a dog or a goat or a hen or.. a rat or an elephant for tat matter. i really mean it. so this s MOKSHA. don get any vague ideas as to this blog wil be talking about self-actualisation or phillosophy. if u have thoughts like that, please.. this s not the blog for you. and BLACK. not the color of the demon, but the color of salvation. of an unshakable memoir of MOKSHA.

If you have got anything out of my scriptures, god grace you... u wil soon attain moksha.
