Hindi Lyrics:
Mm hmm hmm hmm, eh hey, la la la
Mujhe raat din, bas mujhe chaahti ho - 2
Kaho na kaho mujhko sab kuch pataa hai
Haan, karoon kya mujhe tum bataati nahin ho
Chhupaati ho mujhse yeh tumhaari khataa hai
Aa mujhe raat din, bas mujhe chaahti ho

Meri beqaraari ko had se badhaana
Tumhe khoob aata hai baatein banaana
Nigaahein milaake yun mera chain lena
Sataake mohabbat mein yun dard dena
Mujhe dekhke aise palkein jhukaana
Sharaarat nahin hai to phir aur kya hai
Aa mujhe raat din, bas mujhe chaahti ho

Tumhe neend aayegi ab na mere bin
Mujhe hai yakeen aisa aayega ek din
Khuli teri zulfon mein soya rahoonga
Tere hi khayaalon mein khoya rahoonga
Kabhi gaur se meri aankhon mein dekho
Meri jaan tumhaara hi chehraa chhupaa hai
Aa mujhe raat din, bas mujhe chaahti ho
Kaho na kaho mujhko sab kuch pataa hai
Haan, karoon kya mujhe tum bataati nahin ho
Chhupaati ho mujhse yeh tumhaari khataa hai
Aa mujhe raat din, bas mujhe chaahti ho
Mm, hmm hmm hmm, eh hey, la la la

Style..........! uh?

On sunday just happened join two of my friends on their shopping trip. One is getting married next month and he wanted to buy a shirt and tie which matched his new suit!! to be worn on the big occassion. He bought a shirt, tie and a belt and this 3 things cost a princely sum of around 2.7 grand!! that too after discount!
Then the other friend, wanted to buy a trouser or jeans pants. We walked into this posh store and this friend of mine was busy looking out for one which suited his needs. On one side of the wall in the store they had hung jeans of various varities. I had a look at them and they all looked as if they were worn out, old ones. However these are the fashion of our young boys and girls today. These people want to buy these faded, old looking jeans which are actually new at princely sums of 2000 to 4000. Isn't this a fad?
In the same store, in the meantime, one of my friend observed another thing. He saw a female, aged around 25+, looking for some T-shirts. She chose one and took it in her hand and had a look at it. At this point my friend felt she was buying this one for her kid or younger sister (schook kids). However, to his amazement, she went into the trial room and wore this new tiny t-shirt and came out!!! Later he narrated this incident and me had a hearty laugh!!

How abt this one!

There would hardly be anybody who wouldn't like this one!! Cant resist this one!!.. Bet!!!!

Film - Saagar
Music - R D Burman
Singer - Kishore Kumar

Ho, Chehra Hai Ya Chand Khila Hai
Zulf Ghaneri Shaam Hai Kya
Saagar Jaisi Aankhon Vaali
Ye To Bataa Tera Naam Hai Kyaa

Tu Kya Jaane Teri Khaatir
Kitna Hai Betaab Ye Dil
Tu Kya Jaane Dekh Raha Hai
Kaise Kaise Khwaab Ye Dil
Dil Kehta Hai Tu Hai Yahaan To
Jaata Lamha Tham Jaaye
Waqt Ka Dariya Behte Behte
Is Manzar Mein Jam Jaaye
Toone Deewana Dil Ko Banaaya
Is Dil Par Ilzaam Hai Kya
Saagar Jaisi Aankhon Vaali
Ye To Bataa Tera Naam Hai Kya...

Ho, Aaj Maein Tujhse Door Sahi
Aur Tu Mujhse Anjaan Sahi
Tera Saath Nahin Paaun To
Khair Tera Armaan Sahi
Ye Armaan Hain Shor Nahin Ho
Khamoshi Ke Mele Hon
Is Duniya Mein Koi Nahin Ho
Hum Dono Hi Akele Hon
Tere Sapne Dekh Raha Hoon
Aur Mera Ab Kaam Hai Kya
Saagar Jaisi Aankhon Vaali
Ye To Bataa Tera Naam Hai Kya...

Ek Pyar Ka Nagma Hai

This one is a favorite song of one my friends. Even me like the opening lines of this song. Just have a look at the lyrics and it seems so true!

Ek Pyar Ka Nagma Hai, Maujon Ki Ravaani Hai
Zindagi Aur Kuchh Bhi Nahin, Teri Meri Kahani Hai

Kuchh Paakar Khona Hai Kuchh Khokar Paana Hai
Jeevan Ka Matlab To Aana Aur Jaana Hai
Do Pal Ke Jeevan Se Ek Umra Churani Hai
Zindagi Aur...

Tu Dhaar Hai Nadiya Ki, Maein Tera Kinara Hoon
Tu Mera Sahara Hai, Maein Tera Sahara Hoon
Aankhon Mein Samandar Hai, Aashaon Ka Pani Hai
Zindagi Aur...

Toofan To Aana Hai, Aakar Chale Jana Hai
Badal Hai Yeh Kuch Pal Ka, Aakar Dhal Jana Hai
Parchhaiyaan Reh Jaati, Reh Jaati Nishani Hai
Zindagi Aur...

Jo Dil Ko Tasalli De, Woh Saaz Utha Laao
Khushiyon Ki Tamanna Hai, Ashkon Ki Ravaani Hai
Kis Baat Ka Rona Hai, Har Cheez To Faani Hai
Zindagi Aur...

Ullu banayaa aapne...!!

Ullu banayaa... Ullu banayaa... aapne!!
Yes this is the new gag which the guys from "The Great Indian Comdey show" have come up with. This program is telecast on StarOne, daily at 10:30 pm.
One of the latest hits "Aashiq banaya..." has been remixed to this new version. Me have been really laughing whenever I remember this.

Ek Ajnabi Hasina Se.........

Me been humming this song from a long long time!! ;-) This has no reference to anyone living/dead/inbetween!!!

SONG: EK AJNABI HASINA SE
FILM: AJNABI
MUSIC: RAHUL DEV BURMAN
LYRICS: MAJROOH SULTANPURI
YEAR: 1974

Ek Ajnabi Hasina Se Yun Mulaaqat Ho Gayi
Phir Kya Hua Yeh Na Poochho
Kuch Aisi Baat Ho Gayi

Wo Achanak Aa Gayi
Yun Nazar Ke Saamne
Jaise Nikal Aaya Ghata Se Chaand (X2)

Chehre Pe Zulfen Bikhri Hui Thi
Din Mein Raat Ho Gayi
Ek Ajnabi Hasina Se Yun Mulaaqat Ho Gayi

Jaaneman Jaane Jigar
Hota Main Shaayar Agar
Kehta Ghazal Teri Adayon Par (X2)

Maine Yeh Kaha To
Mujhse Khafa Wo
Jaane Haya Ho Gayi
Ek Ajnabi Hasina Se Yun Mulaaqat Ho Gayi

Khubsurat Baat Yeh
Chaar Pal Ka Saath Yeh
Saari Umar Mujhko Rahega Yaad (X2)

Main Akela Tha Magar
Ban Gayi Wo Humsafar
Wo Mere Saath Ho Gayi
Ek Ajnabi Hasina Se Yun Mulaaqat Ho Gayi

Vision INDIA 2027

Yes, you read it right! Vision INDIA 2027.
By the year 2027 INDIA will be a developed country and force to reckon with on the world stage. Why?????

Bcoz of several factors, which me would keep adding over the next few days/months!!
Again, this is my thinking and my estimate that me had in mind since 2002??? In 2002 me visualised that in the next 25 years due to the various changes happening all around, my country would be a developed one!. Me not a visionary nor sooth-sayer or predictor or what not. Its just my hope and estimate that this will soon happen, all bcoz there is an underlying shift in the society today, which is slowly crawling under our feet and which we do not take cognisense of. Do you ever feel the earth rotate or revolve per se. You might perceive the day & night effect and the various seasons, but not the rotation & revolution of the earth. Similarly, me think that several things are changing the face of our country and this will all culminate in 2027. Just wait and watch.

Few major factors
1. Realisation amongst a majority of the educated urbanites (read properly!) that today due to our rapid urbanisation and westernisation 2 countries have been created. One INDIA, the haves and BHARAT the have not. The congnisance of this fact is just enough to spark the thinking that all of us need to somehow help in building BHARAT and bring it on par with INDIA.

2. Majority of the people, especially the working class and poor are gradually getting disgusted with the govt and its services. This will change soon, just wait and watch

3. Technology is advancing so rapidly that people in power will get chucked out as these technologies will enable our people to get rid of babus and other people who control information and delivery of services.

4. Compared to the past, there are a large number of NGOs in operation today. Who are these NGOs ? These are association of individuals who care for our country in some manner or the other. Mostly people who fall into the category mentioned in point 1.

5. India's literacy rates are on the rise. Atleast 70% literacy is on the horizon. Me dont think that we will ever by 100% literate country, however 70% is pretty good enough.

6. The percentage of youth or young men and women who think and act is on the rise. A large majority in the range of 30-50% soon. This will be the set of people who will gradually bring about change.

Will keep adding more and more points over a period of time. Me do not claim that any revolution will happen, but things change at snail pace in our mahaan country Bharat/India. Did you ever notice how changes took place in the banking sector in India? Only today feel that PSBs cheated you till PVN came in!!
Ever felt how cell phones crept into your life?? Ever just realised how easy it is now to get a gas/power/water connection??? Changes have happened we just never took full cognisance of the same. We realised the change only we sat up and took notice.
Yes, similarly, changes are already on the move, its happening, just take note of these.

INDIA, a developed country,........... coming Soon.!!!!!

Currently reading....

Me currently reading.. "The coming collapse of China" by Gordon Chang. Me still halfway through the book and the book does not hold my interest any more. The book is not about the collapse of china as a country or economy. The book trumpets and beats around the bush trying to drive home the point that the communist and authoritative government in china will soon fall or collapse. The book is 99% about the collapse of communism and its marxist methods and policies. The book does not doubt or undermine the potential of China, instead the author repeatedly tells us that this authoritarian power hungry govt in the hands of the communist party will fall soon, bcoz of various reasons. Got bored, felt that the same point was repeated more than once,... yes this is how the books talks again and again about the same old thing. Me have read till around page number 110 or so and its the same old story. Me just think that this book is one which gives a pessimistic view abt china rather the normal goody goody nice and exagarated reports from McKinsey or Goldman Sachs. However no harm in reading.

MLTR - 2

How about this one!
Someday

In my search for freedom
and peace of mind
I've left the memories behind
Wanna start a new life
but it seems to be rather absurd
when I know the truth
is that I always think of you

Chorus:
Someday someway
together we will be baby
I will take and you will take your time
We'll wait for our fate
cos' nobody owns us baby
We can shake we can shake the rock

Try to throw the picture out of my mind
try to leave the memories behind
Here by the ocean
wave's carry voices from you
Do you know the truth
I am thinking of you too

Chorus:
Someday someway
together we will be baby...

The love we had together
just fades away in time
And now you've got your own world
and I guess I've got mine
But the passion that you planted
in the middle of my heart
is a passion that will never stop

One of my alltime favorite song!!! from MLTR

I'm Gonna Be Around Lyrics

It's been so long since we took the time
to share words from deep inside us
We're in our own world spinning our wheels
but you know how I feel

since the first time I took your hand
my love for you has just been growing
You always seem to understand
You know how I am

Chorus:
I'm gonna love you til the end
I'm gonna be your very true friend
I wanna share your ups and downs
I'm gonna be around

When you're alone cause I'm away
don't be sad don't be afraid
I'm gonna turn my thoughts to you
like I always do

Chorus:
I'm gonna love you til the end
I'm gonna be your very true friend...

Catch you when you fall
Hold you when you’re down
Sharing every moment
I wanna show you all I do
I believe I’ve found a miracle
in you

Chorus:
I'm gonna love you til the end
I'm gonna be your very true friend...

Isn't this song just lovely!!

Its lonely at the top..

Me just think that the popularity one has in office is inversely related to the person's ranking in the organisational hierarchy. If the person is at the lowest level his popularity is on the higher side. As he moves up the ladder, his popularity dips, instead unpopularity takes over. Its always the case. People higher up in the organisation have fewer friends to talk to or go to lunch with.

This observation is based on few examples seen by me. Comments welcome.

My world is max 20" wide!

How big is my world. Just about (max) 20 inches wide (Dont think of something else). What me mean is............. Everday for about 9-10 hours me sit in front of comp at office where the world is just about 17" wide. With one hand on the keyboard, usually the left hand and the right hand pretty much permanently on the mouse!! Then when back at home atleast for 1-3 hrs the world is 20 inches wide. Me talking about the size/width of the tv screen. Hence effectively 10-13 hrs a day is just max 20 inches wide. Rest 8-10 hrs goes in sleep, ya me know that dreams do not have any fixed size, me mean the format! neither 17 or 20 or 70 mm cinemascope like that.
For most of us this holds true as we are most of the time glued to the TFT or picture tube which is our world. For most part of the day, the right hand holds either the mouse or the TV remote!!! ugh....... How boring!! But still me do the same thing day in and day out.

However this world gets enlarged when we meet friends. The horizon broadens. Similarly when we read books which takes us to a new plane (provided the book interests us!).

Me like her smile....;-)

Yes, Me like her smile..... Me talking about the smile seen on the face of an actor on TV. Yes.. TV!!! There is this tv serial which me watch on and off. It had been quite a while since the smile appeared on the face of this actor, nearly a month or so. So in the last two episodes saw her smile and felt good. Donno why!!! Donno why....... (Some what like Enrique's song.... Donno whyyyy! Donno whyyyy!.

Picture of You........

Even this one came to my mind... Me somehow like this song including the Video.

Boyzone: Picture of You featuring Mr.Bean (seen this one?)

Didn't they say that I would make a mistake
Didn't they say you were gonna be trouble
People told me you were too much to take
I could see it, I didn't wanna know
I let you in and you let me down
You messed me up and you turned my whole life around
Let me feel that I had no where to go
I was alone, how was I too know that..
You'll be there, when I needed somebody
You'll be there, the only one who can help me

I had a picture of you in my mind
never knew it could be so wrong
Why'd it take me so long just to find
the friend that was there all along.

Who'd believe that after all we've been through
I'd be able to put my whole trust in you
Goes to show you can't forgive and forget
looking back, I have no regrets cause..

You will be there, when I needed somebody
You will be there, the only one to help me

I had a picture of you in my mind
Never knew it could be so wrong
Why'd it take me so long just to find
the friend that was there all along

You will be there, when I needed somebody
You will be there, the only one to help me

I had a picture of you in my mind
never knew it could be so wrong
Why'd it take me so long just to find
the friend that was there all along
(Repeat to fade)

I'd Do Anything For Love ................

Just thought of this song

Meat loaf : I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)
Here are the lyrics

Something...

Really do not know what to post. Sometimes me think of writing something, but by the time me log into Blogger, really forget the topic. A new calendar year has started and me not too enthused about it. Really did not feel that its new year???? All me thought was its a new CALENDAR year, isn't it!!

If at all me start to think of this year, a few thoughts come to my mind:

- This year me expecting a good pay increase and grade change, if not..........

- Thinking of buying a cycle, yes its a cycle. Bcoz, one it would help me save on petrol (and for the country.... so patriotic, ;-) ). Two, me will excercise a little, yes... cycling is as good as exercise.

- Thinking of saving some money and buying a digital camera - a decent 3-4 megapixel. Tired to thinking abt asking others to buy one or asking someone else.

- Waiting for the flowers to bloom in b'lore this january. Especially those yellow ones. Really lost out on the pink ones. Me talking abt flowers.... saw a few trees with the pink bloom. At that time thought which came to mind was .............. in japan they have a holiday for this very activity. Watching those beautiful flowers which would have bloomed in autum. Really cannot recollect the japanese word for this one.

Anyways, when think of japaenese, some japanese here (written in english!)
AKEMASHITE OMEDETOU GOZAIMASU = meaning HAPPY & PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR.

- Need to learn japanese language in full, i.e. atleast to a level that me can speak. Will mostly take up level 2 exam by end of this year if things go as planned.

- Marriage.................... ok, is this in the corner of my mind, would all depend on my parents.

- Need to build a good website for my organisation sevabharati. There is one kutty site already www.geocities.com/sevabharati2003 but need to ramp it up to including all sorts of information, with regular updates.


The other day was just thinking about the condition of roads in b'lore. In India, we have developed some good technology say, to indigeneously launch satellites, manufacture some planes & arms/ammunition. However, we dont still seem to have technology of building roads such that they withstand the ever increasing vehicle population and Indian monsoon. Offlate all roads in b'lore look like as if they have been scrapped like a carrot!! What do u say, isn't this true. On the other side all people like me do is comment/crib that roads aren't any good and do nothing. Me just feel its high time we took up some initiative on this front.
