Today me and my friend travelled in Metro. When we boarded there were no seats so we had to go standing. We looked for a position in a corner. I was feeling sleepy so i came to the opposite door corner to slip into some semi-nap position 😉 .  After some time a man boarded with his baby daughter. They were also standing. And the girl was very excited to travel in the Metro and then looking around. “papa hum shat se b ooper hain…metro chal padi…bahar kitna acha hai”. I asked her to come to corner and she was so happy. Her Dad said “bhaiya ka haath pakad lo”. She held my hand and was enjoying to her fullest. Then she asked “papa hum kab uttarnge jab train aage jeygi ?” He said yes. After some time she again asked “papa hum kab uttarenge jab train wapis peeche jayegi”. He again said yes. And she replied “abhi to aap keh rahe the jab aage jeygi fir uttarange” 😀 We were all in laughter. At one station there was a poster of of the movie Chandi Chowk to China. She was so excited chaani chowk to china…chaani chown to china… At the next station they de-boarded and he said “thanks bolo”. Littlie said thanks and tata…till then i had forgotton all my sleep and was just smiling.

Kids are just wonderful !

Bloody hell

January 2, 2009 / / 7 Comments

Well, a quick post to puke some frustration about these bloody reality shows on Indian TV channels. Let it be Sa Re Ga Ma, India idol or any a b c. I just don’t understand what the hell they are looking for ? See the judges, anchors and  contestants. Everybody is hell bent on uttering maximum possible non-sense. And the contestants, i guess they look for beautiful faces rather than beautiful voices. And those x y z non-sense things they are made to do in the show are just bloody irritating like anything. All the 24 hours they abuse music. And oh yes that people voting thing; what does that mean ? If people can vote and make someone enter back into the show, what the heck judges are for ?

Bullshit !!!

BTW only show i liked a bit was Awaz Punjab Di on mh1 as there was no non-sense, no people voting and only some sensible stuff. But it also got screwed up on its way to end.

That is the talent we are hunting after this non-sense of months. May God save music from clutches of these duffers !

Aman just told me that i wrote about this thing earlier also. See the level of frustration it builds up 🙁

tere mud aaun di dil nu aje b aas baki hai
k mere dard de tan te eho hi libaas baki hai

jadon hasdi haan hanjhu shalak aaunde ne subhavik hi
mere ehsaas de tan te same di laash baaki hai

eh meri akh da athar, kahani da hai ik akhar
te meri hiqq de wich dard da itihaas baki hai

tere seene ch thaathan maarda daria mohabbat da
mere seene ch kai tapde thalan di pyas baki hai

je pathar ho gia seena tan taithon seh nahi hona
k aa v ja, mohabbat da aje ehsaas baki hai

Aman posted this poetry on his blog and provided the English translation. I am producing the same here. All the credit for this goes to Aman.

I still have hopes that you would come back,
On my injured body of sadness,that’s the only wardrobe left!

When I smile, tears flow somehow on their own,
The body of my feelings is engraved with the shades of death!

Here is a drop from my eye, and each is telling a story,
And in my heart, an entire saga of sadness and pain is hidden!

In your heart, its an ocean of love flowing ,
But in my heart, there is thirst of so many deserts!

If I shall become a stone, it would be unbearable for you,
Please come back as  there is still love in my heart!

kavita nahi tu pyar te poori kitaab likh

January 1, 2009 / / 4 Comments

A very very happy new year to all the readers. In the form of first post in 2009, here goes a wonderful & inspirational  poem by Sukhwinder Amrit:

kavita nahi tun pyar te poori kitaab likh
kaale swaal sun te chitte jawab likh

tu nafartan da tarzuma kar de khaloos wich
te kandian nu katt ke khidia gulab likh

likhde ne kuch k lok bas sooli saleeb hi
par tu harek rukh nu gaundi rabab likh

jo husan de sang tadpia sehra ohi likhin
jo ishq de sang wilkia ohi chanab likh

ai khuda tu har ik pyas nu tripti ch badal de
tapde thalan di hiq te nadian da aab likh

ethe harek khaab hi dhukhda main vekhia
maarothalan te na koi fullan da khaab likh
