To be is to do
My struggle to bloggg….Slumdog Millionaire – Hardly Impresses
Rave reviews put my attention to watch this critically acclaimed movie. Mumbai slums,fine performances from the acting front, non linear mode of story telling and well indeed a good piece of camera work. More than these, Slumdog Millionaire is just an average fare. Few messages what delivers to me are as follows.
- Indians will do any thing for women and money. No value for the relationships.
- Indian police is worst enough to slap even kids and there come the Americans to save us. A dedicated scene has been placed to depicit this.
- There is something called TajMahal in India (if you dont know) , which is being used as a source of income (so called tourism) which can oversell among foriegners.
- We have a job category called “Call Center” consists of few dumps and the tea boy works there is much better than them (read “youngsters”) – The thread of the whole movie :lol
- Lot of scenes of socially disturbing menace of prositituition, liquor and drugs with an indirect message that the majority of people lives on it.
- There is a game called “Cricket”. It is not Sachin who scored the maximum century in first class cricket :lol
- Right mix of Communal Violence
Sad to say, these are few key points which catalyzes the entry of movie to Oscars and International festivals for best screenplay. I am surprised, for such a low quality fare has been reviewed as best one.
The movie captures lot of pain and emotionally high strung moments. But when a movie is being taken on India and when it is placed in front of entire world, the intentions it throws is quite negetive and disappointing. We have lot of good things as well and I should have appreciated the efforts if proper slots have given for our positive parts. Intentions would have been good, but not convincing enough to state it as an authentic affair.
The actors and technicians are Indians, so that the 100+ millions Indians would watch and support this “so-called-classic” and can be commericalised to entire world. Maybe the movie hold up a mirror to one dimension of Indian society and it can be judgemental, but not to an extend of this one dimensional criticism. Anyways my kudos to A R Rahman for winning Gloden Globe and nominations to Oscar!
Hey reviewers/friends/critics, think for a while.
Broken Promises
Another new year ! I am afraid to wish a nice year ahead taken into consideration the crisis we undergo. Economic downturn is one thing which all the media and financial experts excessively speaks and debates.
Most of us believe, this is something which will get affected to US and its allies or to an extend of insecurity among professionals in banking or IT sector, which is not the fact. This is a slow process that will hit your doorstep one day. Cutting down your expenses, decreasing spending power or step back from investments is not the right thing which we should do at this moment.
Cuba is least affected with the recent recession trend. The current global economic model is highly based on consumerism which in turn is its disadvantage. India and most of the Asian economies is being inherited from this model. We depned on other nations and we are infected, while Cuba is not.
We should create a sophisticated and content model which should work in our house, then in our village which extends to the whole nation. Young generation’s mindset to quick money and better lifestyle need to be transformed and restore the focus to the importance of a “content-activity” (job or self employment). We guys must carry a goal card. We need to come out of the conventional educational practice of just “creating professionals” introduced by British and need to come out with a syllabus which should prioritise the concept of self existence through socio-economic-technological-scientific trends. The awareness precedes the change.
Everyone is running behind rescue plans which is temporary. We should keep our eyes and ears open. If we should act in right time else it should act on us. This is one natural law which has governed the humanity which can pool up to govern an entire society. Act now.
Think?
Lot to learn from children!
Give a peace of bread toast to a child. Watch it. Leaving the crust intact, he will take the softpart of the bread. Little we know the art of living. We, grown-ups focus much on crust part of your life an looses the wisdom to focus on the best part of your life. Take the time to learn the best qualities of children and model their ability to stay energised, imaginative and completely in the momentno matter what is going going around them.

Outraged.. appalled… surprised….! After all a classic case of blind faith on the cricket team…!!
Just few days back, I scrapped here all abt my return to cricket. blasting sky high comments on Men In Blue.. Yeah, about my expectations with Indian cricket team..! Be genuine. We failed miserably…. we always show an odd fashion of brilliance.., same happened here… this time the “odd” factor was away from it…! lost to Bangladesh…. set record with Bermudians…. lost to Srilanka…. back to India….!!
Rather than praising the oppositions.. or blaiming the pitches, I clearly made out something that is missing with us.. is lack of confidence…. the attitude to the game… need to be changed….
So bye again, till you get it done… yes our.. indian’s dreams of impending glory….!!
Illussion !
All about “love”.. when it comes to this term, everybody is in love ! Normally durining teenage times, a boy..a girl… they look each other… fell into love… (bad time starts!) struggle to define this feeling.., they say this is something tht really need to be felt ! They say it is splenedid.. it is relegion.. soul met soul… the partner… they cud die for each other.. yeah it is divine.. they cant be seperate…! yes, there they decide… we are gonna to get married.. and just rock the life with it !! the peak.. or the ultimate part of the relationship ends up with marriage…! mm.. best wishes…! There started.. tiny issues creeping out… they made it big… now the divine love starts leading to the hatred… and at the end.. it reach the maximum…. the deepest attachment turns to the “hatred”….! now they needd to separate…. the relation is lost…!!!
There I am…. I do define the term – “love” as an illusion… it mess up the things to worst, so be away from it …. try to develop relationships through self content and trust… polish the trust factor… and live happy, and that could end in death… only !!
Do it !
Fate. A word we use mostly… what to do with our life with this strange word, “fate”… Does it really measures the belief in ultimate power..god ! I think our life is a set of modules in which the factor of “fate” spread over in .. various shapes..! I think this “fate” makes us to learn lessons.. and to move with or against it… a kind of training to our next step… next second… in fact bring us back to the lines of where we were….and what we are…. what we do??
Too many people lead small lives. Many of us die at 20 and buried at 80. Leave the tiny thinking apart, dare to fight the fate.. pursue your dreams.
I am struck… the questions till bothers… so to be is to do…!
Cheers, it is my comeback to cricket !
Cricket fever heating up ! The islands of caribeban united and all set to welcome the world for it ! All the teams in place..! It is almost 8 years I gave up watching cricket…! The bribe.. controversies aganist the teams around the world… felt myself that i am screwed… tat is the point I stopped it. Eventhough I used to keep update myself.. on what is happening… I never bother to sat in front of screens and scream for them to win !! This time I decided to bring back my soul to it !
Spectators rolled round with their favorites… ! I do really wish for my country…! I do really support my country….! I do really wish 1983 repeats once again….! This time I have decided to be with the young blood….! They will sweep centuries and record across the island…! We quest for the ultimate and you must do the best..!
Need a clue? I am an Indian !
Best wishes

I tried to be completely consious and stay out of my void state. Hope it happens
I say to myself. come out of it. I keep this saying to myself to come out of it. .. these few words also is a kind of practice to it.
RIP !
