Measure of success...

Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which one has overcome while trying to succeed

Wake up PM!!! Its time to react...

Dear Mr. Prime minister
I am a typical mouse from Mumbai. In the local train compartment which has capacity of 100 persons, I travel with 500 more mouse. Mouse at least squeak but we don’t even do that.
Today I heard your speech. In which you said ‘NO BODY WOULD BE SPARED’.
I would like to remind you that fourteen years has passed since serial bomb blast in Mumbai took place. Dawood was the main conspirator. Till today he is not caught. All our bollywood actors, our builders, our Gutka king meets him but your Government can not catch him. Reason is simple; all your ministers are hand in glove with him. If any attempt is made to catch him everybody will be exposed. Your statement ‘NOBODY WOULD BE SPARED’ is nothing but a cruel joke on this unfortunate people of India.
Enough is enough. As such after seeing terrorist attack carried out by about a dozen young boys I realize that if same thing continues days are not away when terrorist will attack by air, destroy our nuclear reactor and there will be one more Hiroshima.
We the people are left with only one mantra. Womb to Bomb to Tomb. You promised Mumbaikar Shanghai what you have given us is Jalianwala Baug.
Today only your home minister resigned. What took you so long to kick out this joker? Only reason was that he was loyal to Gandhi family. Loyalty to Gandhi family is more important than blood of innocent people, isn’t it?
I am born and bought up in Mumbai for last fifty eight years. Believe me corruption in Maharashtra is worse than that in Bihar. Look at all the politician, Sharad Pawar, Chagan Bhujbal, Narayan Rane, Bal Thackray, Gopinath Munde, Raj Thackray, Vilasrao Deshmukh all are rolling in money.
Vilasrao Deshmukh is one of the worst Chief minister I have seen. His only business is to increase the FSI every other day, make money and send it to Delhi so Congress can fight next election. Now the clown has found new way and will increase FSI for fisherman so they can build concrete house right on sea shore. Next time terrorist can comfortably live in those house, enjoy the beauty of sea and then attack the Mumbai at their will.
Recently I had to purchase house in Mumbai. I met about two dozen builders.
Everybody wanted about 30% in black. A common person like me knows this and with all your intelligent agency & CBI you and your finance minister are not aware of it. Where all the black money goes? To the underworld isn’t it? Our politicians take help of these goondas to vacate people by force. I myself was victim of it. If you have time please come to me, I will tell you everything.
If this has been land of fools, idiots then I would not have ever cared to write you this letter. Just see the tragedy, on one side we are reaching moon, people are so intelligent and on other side you politician has converted nectar into deadly poison. I am everything Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Schedule caste, OBC, Muslim OBC, Christian Schedule caste, Creamy Schedule caste only what I am not is INDIAN. You politician have raped every part of mother India by your policy of divide and rule.
Take example of former president Abdul Kalam. Such a intelligent person, such a fine human being. You politician didn’t even spare him. Your party along with opposition joined the hands, because politician feels they are supreme and there is no place for good person.
Dear Mr Prime minister you are one of the most intelligent person, most learned person. Just wake up, be a real SARDAR!!
First and foremost expose all selfish politician. Ask Swiss bank to give name of all Indian account holder. Give reins of CBI to independent agency. Let them find wolf among us. There will be political upheaval but that will better than dance of death which we are witnessing every day. Just give us ambient where we can work honestly and without fear. Let there be rule of law.
Everything else will be taken care of.
Choice is yours Mr. Prime Minister. Do you want to be lead by one person or you want to lead the nation of 100 Crore people?

You are the sole owner of what you are!! The difference between good and great is the extra effort you take towards the success. To get what we've never had, we must do what we have never done. The only thing that stands between a person and what they want in life is the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible. Remember, it's your life, you are responsible for the results.

travell light...

I had so much pain to transport my luggage from old room to new house, even though it was so close. First, I had to throw out a hundred of no use things I have been keeping around. It seems there is abundance of Vishnu Shakti- skill of maintenance in me, and a budding Shiva Shakti - the transformation energy. So I had to invoke all the Shiva Shakti and select only few things to be taken further to the new home.

Still the luggage was HugE!! Some 10 Cartons. I shiped some on my HONDA DIO, and 3 had to go in auto rickshaw.

Its so important to Travel light in the life! The incident made me aware of what all things I have been accumulating for no reason!

And this is just from one home to another. This body is also a home, I am temporarily living in here. When I have to leave it and go, will I be able to travel light!?

Sad note ended happily…

It was a dry day in recent season…

Not so energetic, not so joyful, not so healthy… Badly suffered from fever, cold, cough and so much of mental torture…

One of my dear buddy, whom I use to take care was not bothered to look at me and not concerned about my condition… I felt I was completely ignored… That was the pain I suffered more than physical illness… Took that circumstances in a positive means and learnt to live by myself…

I wanted to shout, scream and say to this world that”JAGAMANTHA KUTUMBHAM NAADHI, EKAAKI JEEVITHAM NAADHI” I was literally crying inner self and was trying to make things comfortable…

There was a call from another close pal of mine and that relieved me from all the physical and mental sickness… I was completely out of all the worries… I was recovered half the way…

I was in search of that kind of support, love and other means to come out of that messy situation…

Thanked god for giving me such a nice buddy as my frnd…

Disturbed day at office…

Disturbed day at office…

It’s been good working from the day he is working in the office… He’s exploring a lot, working hard, and solving puzzles, supporting politicians so called people and so on…

A day that was not his day… Woke up from the twin bed with a smile on his cheeks and good feelings in his brains… Rushed to office as regular…

It was unexpectedly a meeting which started bothering him… He was not tinted as per his potential… All others were recognized for the work completed by him… He was disturbed in his mind, bothered about his space and worried about his bread winning… He took it on the lighter side and started ahead with the daily schedule…

There was a call from his boss to guide him thru the process he has to go thru…

Boss was painting the points which he was taking care from past long time… (Boss wants to have some time pass and do show-off) He felt annoyed but can’t do much and can say nothing…

He kept his cock shut and started working as like a dog yet again…

This is not an opening experience for him; This has been in the past and will be there in the future too…

So, he understood the way of life and learnt lessons to lead the life as it comes…

If you want to know how good TZP is, just go to your nearest theater and watch the people coming out after the show. The cacophony that surrounds a crowd exiting a theater will be missing. Some would be walking in slow motion. Some would look petrified. At least that's what happened in the theater I went to. Not a single soul was talking after the movie, probably because what everyone saw on screen was not fiction, but a semi-biography of his/her own life. In fact, the normally rowdiest gang in a theatre (ie my friends and I) that is uber vocal at the end of a film left the theater in pin drop silence. The first thing we said to each other - 'Aamir has done it again… He did it for the first time and for the rest of life time.

I know only Aamir can make this film TZP...
But at the end its a successful movie with marvelous team effort.
Kudos to all the cast and crew of this project.
