Pahle...Jo Nahi Thi...!!

कहीं ना कहीं...कोई ना कोई...

ये आसमान भी सोचता होगा,
कितनी बेरंग सी दुनिया है इसकी,
उपर से देख कर इस दुनिया को ये पाता होगा,
परछाई भी उन्ही रंगो मे सिमटी है इसकी

ये ज़मीन भी सोचती होगी,
कितना ठहरा सा जहाँ है इसका,
नज़र अपनी जब भी उपर उठाती होगी,
सोचती होगी काश बादलों सी रफ़्तार होती इसकी.

ये हवा भी सोचती होगी,
कहीं ठहर कर थोड़ी सी साँसें ही ले पाती
हर समय इस चलने की आदत से दूर
कहीं थोड़ा रुक, इस दुनिया को काश महसूस भी कर पाती.

इन बेज़ुबान रंगो मे खोई,
इस बेपनाह से समंदर मे सोई,
इन वीरान सी रातों मे, इन चीखते हुए दिनो मे
इस गहरी सी ज़मीन मे बोई,

हर जगह है ... बस चाहतें, ख्वाहिशें,
जैसे ढूँढ रहा है हर कोई.....

कुछ ना कुछ...
कोई ना कोई...

Inkaar - My Movie Review !!!
--------------------------------
In just one sentence, it's a great piece of art. A purely Sudhir Mishra style film. He always has been making the movies having very different ideas and themes like were "Ye sali zindagi", "Hazaron Khwahishen Aisi" and trust me, add Inkaar into the list now. Inkaar is no exception in the chart of the films having every moment of the film a catchy one where you don't move your eyelids anywhere besides the screen. Well the reasons are just two - The story is binding and the style of presenting is a bit different from the ordinary course of movies.

The dialogues are punching and screenplay is written in a perfect style.

Arjun Rampal would count this movie into his favorite pieces of his acts. With dashing looks and whimsical dialogue delivery, he consistently catches your eye. Moreover, Chitrangada (as always) is looking super sexy and hot!!! This movie adds her into the cluster of selected actresses who are known in the industry not just for their looks but also for their performance. Chtrangda suits the character and does justice to it.
The movie is enjoyable and entertaining. Go 4/5 it !!!!

AARAMBH !!! - the beginning of a new generation

AARAMBH - the beginning, the start!

Not just the formal beginning of the new batch of the students, but the beginning of a new ardor, the shaping of a new zeal!

The seed was grown last month and we could see a new, fresh, waving plant of a new generation yesterday.

When it all started, everyone had just one motive, to buzz on and then to rock on!! To give the event a new shape so that it looks like a morphed series of many ignited short cells, collaborating to finally transform into a big mega structure, capable of standing itself in front of its past but still evolving generation.

It looked like a WAR. The war where the frontiers were not there to win, but to guide on - how to win!!! It gave a new strength, a new identity to the next warriors. It gave a fresh unused sword to the upcoming team of individuals to signify the next move. The move to come front and attack, with the fullest endeavor to gain the capability of crushing the real time enemies of fear, reluctance and diffidence.

The new frontiers, looked although unfettered by the hustles coming through. With all the vocal chords bringing into the force, they jumped into the arena with a long challenging voice, with all their arms to battle the combat.

The entire event, looked like a “ranbhoomi”, was not signifying a war among old and new generation, but it was a war between fear and fervor. Between confidence and diffidence.

The need was just to overtake the dynamic and spontaneous changes offered and stem the slides with fullest power within the shoulders. What was desired happened. What was expected got fulfilled. The height is still not achieved, but we can pat out back at least for inching up on the scale of improvement.

Lets look forward to write the next story – The story of victory, the story of the end  and then again a new beginning – an another AARAMBH!!!

Let’s make us – real us !!!

This is great!!!  Simply outstanding and laudable. This is going to bring a change – in society, in people, in attitude. Aamir Khan is back with his long standing favorite theme – Patriotism in “Satymev Jayate”.

With its first episode on Female Feticide, it has shown us the grim reality of the contemporary India which on one side, claims about becoming the fastest developing nation, while on other hand, doesn’t even understand the basic principles of morality and humanity. India, with the educated, but unconcerned Indians has although started to drive on the path of economic growth but the roots of its socio-political issues is still growing under the mud of superstitions, illiteracy, poverty and unemployment.

Female feticide is an immoral, unethical practice being followed in India for the last four to five decades. As explained in the episode, it started dominating after the doctors and volunteers favoring the family planning began convincing the parents to abort their child if the child is a girl. And see, what the logic was – Girls will be responsible for the population growth which is multiplying manifolds years by years.

On the first thoughts, it really looks like it can only be thought by some illiterate village person. But look who is behind this, an educated-employed-practicing doctor whose actual purpose is to save the lives. Now he is taking the lives, and that too of innocent children who haven’t even seen the first glimpse of the world. As we have already got the facts, not a single doctor practicing the child determination has been jailed. Neither punished, nor his license cancelled. He is still murdering the babies. He is still working against the society. And last, He is still free.

Aamir Khan , by bringing the social issues forward through this path breaking  program , deserves an applause. He made a sensitive case of female feticide an important one now. Every bit of awareness is now needed by us to control the situation. Now, we know the cause of the problem, the perpetrators of the problem, the prevalence areas of the problem and most importantly, the solution of the problem. There should not be any delay in setting up the fast track courts in Rajasthan and other states too for dealing with the cases of this heinous act. The onus is now on the government to sort out the cases. And not just sort out, but also monitor that judgment prevails.

Frankly speaking, it was a very risky decision that Aamir Khan took to take up this theme. But see, a new version of Patriotism is now being cherished after viewing the episode. He says – “what kind of Shinning India we want to see? How will our ancestors and freedom fighters feel when they will see this happening in their dream India?”.  All the interviews with the real affected people from the abuse, humiliation, actually strike the heart. They actually make us realize, we have forgot our India, our country while dealing with our own busy lives. Aamir Khan shows us not just the problem, but also manages to show us the way to eradicate the problem completely by his”Jaadoo ki Chhadi”. We all laugh collectively on the drastic failure of our policies, our police, our social rules, our constitution, and our leaders. Aamir Khan made us collectively weep on this now, which seriously was needed.  With all the proofs he showed along with the interviews, we can’t deny that there is an imperative need of a change in the outlook, the way we look our problems, and the ways we invent to solve them.  There is an urgent need to rethink about the strategy we are framing to tackle the social issues. Awareness is the mother of all the tactics, so creating this will throw much of our problems in the big damp pool.

It’s not the end in any way. We have a big responsibility now. Let’s cheer now; we have got something to work on. We have a chance to actively take part in the designing of a country which will have no women feticide, no poverty, and no unemployment. We have got an inspirational, motivational guru in the form of realization of the issues.

What now?? WE have been hearing all these for decades. No one comes to front. No one solves the problems. Isn’t it? I would rather say - We can come back now. We have the questions now. All we need is to find the answers. A lot is at stake. A lot has to be done. Let’s start one by one. Let’s make India. Let’s make ourselves, lets frames us - real us!!

                                                                                                                                 --ank/t papriwal

India Shining : Hope the Story never ends !!!

Once , the Indians were considered to be the most dumb common men in the world society. World recognized us, but din’t accept us. They applauded for our success in every field of Mathematics, Science, Politics and Economics, but the luster was still missing in the Indian names.



That luster has taken its place after a long waiting time. This is proven by the facts and figures which the world itself shows about the achievements we Indians are accumulating now. It’s a clearly a race. And when we see where we currently are shows our conquer. Lets start with the Sports – 2011 was a standout year in the Indian sports history not just because of the world cup triumph, but other astonishing and exceptional facts that India put on the chart of success. India put its name in the calendar of Formula One Race first time in history which was a grand success. With the 8 field hockey gold medals in hand, India also hosted the 2010 commonwealth games. Indian boxers hitting an all time high in Olympics was the best example of raising the Indian flag by Indians in overseas.



A part from sports, Science and Technology has never been a backburner for Indians. Indians have always proved their mettle in the field of rocket science. For instance, we invented the new faster “Brahmastra “Rocket which proved to be three times faster than that of US. We are the 16th country which has bought the world’s most strongest planes. Indians getting Oscars, Booker, Pulitzer is also another barometer of the Indian success all over the world.



With so much foreign players coming to our country for investment in indian market is another milestone of our success. We have the biggest IT Industry in the world and we have build this hub in a very short span of time. Our market has been tagged as the world’s least crisis-prone market in the world which surpasses every hurdle of Volatility, crisis, Liquidity and always ramps itself up in the stocks.

With the booming and established relations with other countries like China, US and others, we are proven to be the least manipulative citizens and most intellectual citizens due to our saving habits and our practice of spending rationally.



Business opportunities in India are encouraging foreign nations to invest more and more in our country. They see the gold mine of its demographic dividend to foster their business. Indians are at the top most places of many emerging and established companies multiplying their revenues manifolds.

Examples are many, but the achievements are not bounded to examples. We, if remain united, will always showing our robustness, ability, diplomacy and proficiency in every part of the story. While I expect we will prove ourselves the Hero of the story, I hope with my every line of breath, …Lets not write the climax of the story ever…and hope….the story never ends !!!! JJJ

जहाँ...तारो मे

वो अंधेरों की तनहाईयाँ मिटाते जगमग जगमग तारे.....
वो सन्नाटो की आवाज़ सुनाते जगमग जगमग तारे....
वो अंजान सड़कों पर हर पल डराते..जगमग जगमग तारे...
वो बेवजह, बेपनाह टिम टिमाते...जगमग जगमग तारे...

कभी सोचा करता हूँ कितना सुरीला है उनका जहाँ...
रात की वीरानियों मे ...एक नयी दुनिया बासाता.
हर चाँदनी रात मे ..कभी घनघोर रात के लिबास मे...
अपनी एक अलग ही कहानी सुनता ...
हर पल वही गीत गुनगुनता.....शर्मिला है उनका जहाँ..

याद आता है कोई इन तारों मे...
जैसे बसा हो कोई चेहरा इन तारों मे...
जिसे अगर दूर से भी कभी देखूं मैं...
तो करीब लगे..जैसे बसा हो अंदर दिल मे....
जैसे सबसे ज़्यादा अपना लगे...इन तारों मे...

दूरियाँ रहती आई हैं...
हमेशा कहीं ना कहीं आगे भी रहेंगी...
रूलाती रहेंगी...
पास ना होने की कसक जगाती रहेंगी...
आँखों मे आँसू लाकर...
उन्हे फिर सुखाती रहेंगी......
तुम इस दिल के सबसे करीब हो...
हर पल बस यही जताती रहेंगी...


मगर तब भी तुम्हे देख सकूँगा मैं..
तुम्हे महसूस कर सकूँगा मैं...
तुम्हे खुद से जुड़ा हुआ...खुद मे मिला हुआ...
खुद मे सना हुआ...दिल मे बसा हुआ...
देख सकूँगा मैं....
इन तारों मे....
