Guzaarish flopped at the silver screen and the box office but the smoking scene of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan got its momentum. I don't know whether this scene was created for the rifts and controversies but what happened did show that the Indian society can't let women break the rules and barricades meant for them. The germane way is ruled for them and the society can't see women crossing the limits. One woman did it last days on KBC who broke all the barriers of the family and society, participated in the KBC and won 1 Crore - Rahat Taslim. But every woman is not so lucky to break the Line Of Control (LOC) and do what she desires to do.
The self-proclaimed BAAP OF MUMBAI - Raj Thackeray raised fingers on the smoking scene of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Guzaarish. She is the 3rd Bachchan to be targeted by MNS (Main Nahi Sudhrunga) after Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan (Abhishek is still relaxed). MNS may not do anything for the city but they keep an eye over the Bollywood actresses I think. Last time, they went to Kareena Kapoor's house to hand over a Saree to her as she posed nude for a poster of Kurbaan - another flop movie. I think the whole party keeps on roaming here and there in city to check out the posters of new movie and the decency of actresses in the poster. As soon as they find a woman who is showing some manly skill is targeted and sued. They are asked to apologize or the party will show them their indecency in reply of the actress's indecency. Tit For Tat.
Recently, one more actress is seen with a cigarette in her hand in her new movie promo - Rani Mukherjee. Yes, she is the same actress who disguised herself as a Male Sardar in a movie which was seen by her family only. Audiences said that we are happy with the male versions of Navjot Singh Siddhu and Harbhajan Singh. She is targeted by some another party or activists group. She has also dared to little much audacious and she has shown a Middle finger too. Both the actresses - Aishwarya and Rani are the renowned actresses of Bollywood. Aishwarya Rai is popular in all over the world. There are so many girls who follow these actresses. There are so many teenagers and even kids who have their specific favourites and they agree to watch only their movie in the theaters.
I am astonished to see that even when these actresses are renowned and popular, they have no lack of work, they are not into the stage where they will have to compromise, then why do they agree to be wild on screen. The middle finger shown by Rani may be cool or kewl for some teenagers who are raunchy and dudy (came from dude) but it is not appreciated and accepted by many in quantity. It is not the work of quality and thus it is not the work which is commendable and remarkable. When you are a public figure, you should keep in mind that there are many people who admire and follow you. Today, I am a small blogger who is read by some sweet people. I try to write such things which is acceptable. Sometimes I write debatable contents but that doesn't mean that I am influencing people to be negative and weird. That's my point of view to show people that if the things would be in such manner what would have been the condition. But I never share and preach a wrong conduct through my blog because even if 2 people will read my blog, they may follow it which can cause a disaster to my image as a blogger. Why don't this actresses think so?
Is it so necessary to show the actress smoking and if its important can't they blur that part where the actress is shown smoking out the puff. But my main problem is with the actress. I hope in the coming years, our actress will act as matured queens of Bollywood. There are many of us who follow them who can be misguided by their presence on screen in an indecency posture. Suppose Amitabh Bachchan start showing in every film that drinking turns him on and make him energetic, I am sure that thousands of youngster who are following him will start drinking and acting as Bachchan did in the film. I hope this trend of spoiling the parlance of big screen ends and at least actresses keep their images and handles respected else I think MNS does a right thing when they hand the sarees to this actresses and ask for the removal of posters.
As a Blogger and a medium who talks about the social issue, I have to research on the social and current topics before starting to write my views and words on it. But some topics are so special and so close to you that you don't have to research about them. They are always in your heart and you can write about them anytime without preparation. 26/11 is one of them. I know I am late but its better to be late than never.
We still remember the 26th November,2008. I was in the coaching classes in Nashik when this incident took place. I was totally unaware of the incident which took place in Mumbai at the Taj. I received a SMS from my cousin sister who texted me to take my care and be at the home. I was shocked that a cousin sister sitting in Delhi is asking me to remain at the home and not to roam outside. I replied back and I got the answer that a big and destructive terrorist attack has happened in the premises of the one of the biggest metro cities of the world - Mumbai. I came to the home running faster, switched on the news channels and started watching the news. This news continued to focus on the live activities at the spot for 3 days incessantly. I was quite shocked and amazed to see that The Hotel Taj which is said to be the identity of Mumbai is going through such condition.
Later on, when the whole incident ended up, I was so traumatized that I felt that everyone who has a big baggage behind his shoulders is carrying some weapons and ammunition and going to fire or annihilate a beautiful monument. This 26/11 killed 183 people. A group of audacious terrorist who were brainwashed and trained to play with weapons were guided to attack the Taj, Oberoi Hotel, A Jewish place and CST station. They entered the premises of India through the sea route and gave the whole incident a place in the history of terrorism. We lost some excellent commandos in this incident. After their soul left us, some ministers remarked some over-statements without thinking what they are speaking. People didn't forgave them and they had to pay for their evil and wicked statements by resigning from their posts and titles. Out of 10 terrorists, only 1 was caught alive while others lost their lives in the encounter. That one Prime Personality of current India is known as GREAT AJMAL KASAB.
People were so angry with the ministers and the governance that they paid condolences to the people who died and requested for the justice as soon as possible because of which we eliminated the Latur's king - Vilasrao Deshmukh. I wanted to participate in the lightning of candle and thus pay my homages to the people who lost their life and to the people who lost someone from their life but due to traveling problem I wasn't able to go to Mumbai and pay my condolences. Sorry brethren.
Mumbai saw a lot of truth because of this incident. Mumbai became matured after this. Mumbai became firm and stronger. What made us stronger was the continuous challenges of Pakistanis who asked us to defend ourselves if we can. We lost every time but after 26/11, I don't remember any such terrorist activity in Mumbai. Now the same Pakistanis has a fear of entering our premises and conduct the same God of Terrorism again. People are still waiting for Kasab to be hanged. Our judicial system has learned something from the story of Rabbit and Turtle (I think) which is delaying their final verdict on this issue. We are still depending on America that it will come between this issue and help us. We shouldn't wait for them now. It's the time to ignore everyone and come to the conclusion ourselves. Ajmal Kasab has already eaten 40 Crore of our country's account. I am sure that he will cross the collection of 3 Idiots and he will become the most superhit actor of India. 26/11 can be alphabetically called AJMAL KASAB DAY !!!
People get goosebumps even today when they remember the day when enfilade was released from the terrorists and each sound took each life. The soul of Mumbai was dead. But the city of spirit, potential and audacity recovered back and came in the context again with the highest performance. The share market came to its level, the students started marching towards the school, the people started halting on CST for the jobs and many things started proceeding except one - The verdict on Kasab. Hope it will come soon and we will see a human's system dead which had the potential to dismantle the human's system of so many Indians. If Sachin is the God of cricket, I think we can say that Kasab is the God of terrorism. But we can't merit him with such a name because it has a word like God. So Kasab, you are meant for nothing. Let's say Hello to you for the last time. I hope you will meet Allah very soon and answer him about your biggest achievements you made on the beautiful Earth created by him - The Almighty. Allah, be ready to accept him. Keep the questionnaire ready. I hope Kasab will not have a lawyer there who will teach him how to manipulate Allah.
Kasab, I want to wish you in advance, May your soul rest in peace.
I am happy to announce that we are half way done to reach our next milestone - 400th Blog. Don't know whether it will create the same magic as previous centurions but let's hope for the greatness. So, a real India is out of the shell. Right? People are amazed to see the responses of the Bihar's election. Bihar - You hear the name and you start laughing and abusing the state. Why? Because of Biharis? No !!! Because the state is unfledged and people are illiterate in the region. Those people migrate to the cities like Mumbai to create something and earn something. Here, they are called Bhaiyyas and the human-bodied-animal Raj Thackeray thrash them for using their land to do the jobs and earn money. Strange. Today, the same Biharis have shown that in spite of being under poverty and literacy, they have a brain which works like a Master mind and has the power to change the shape of democracy and governance of India. This has never been shown by the people of Mumbai or Maharashtra. Am I wrong? If Yes, correct me. I am not saying that Biharis are better than Mumbaikars in ideology and potential. I am saying that Biharis have shown that India can be changed which Mumbaikars haven't shown it yet. Waiting for the change.
Nitish Kumar - The new Superman of India is the trending topic today. Why? Because he is the man who showed that the politician can be true and salubrious towards his country rather than the amount he has to earn through scams and fill his secret khazana. Suresh Kalmadi - we haven't forgot you still. Rahul Gandhi - Where is the team of probation? The whole system is slow. And in this slow system comes a Shahenshah named Nitish Kumar and win the hearts of many Indians. 59 year old man who has completed his engineering from Bihar won the election with the highest margin ever in the history of Bihar's election. He won 206 seats out of 243 seats. Can you believe this? Lalu got something 12 or 14. Congress got 4. Rahul Gandhi thinks that his white dress and simplicity and the idea of youth can win the heart of people in spite of several scams taking place in the governance of his party. He is losing the love and respect he had when he entered the politics. I want to laugh out loud at the dhutttt - Lalu ji. Once, he said,"Raj Thackeray ke ghar ke bahaar jaake snaan karenge hum log." He never came and because of his statement several Biharis got thrashed and beaten up by MNS supporters. This is Lalu. I want to collaborate two things together - Sheila Ki Jawani and Lalu ki barwadi.
" Whats your name! Whats your name! My name is Lalu. Lalu ki barwadi. I am too corrupt, mere ghotale tere haath na aane waali. My name is Lalu. Lalu ki barwadi. "
Lalu kept exciting people just by one formula - Raising the Muslims. I know religious discrimination is the biggest drawback of Indian society but you can't win the votes by collaborating the religion and being invidious with development. But, Nitish Kumar - Lord of Small Things isn't insouciant with development like Lalu. When Lalu was inculpating him in the rallies, Nitish just said one thing," Janta sub jaanti hai" rather than retaliating to the statements of Lalu. Now Lalu ban gaya sadaa hua aaloo.
The best thing which Nitish did in last 5 years are the development and construction of roads. Once this was made, the transportation of public and goods became faster. Once this become fast, state automatically progresses.
The next best thing he did was the hiring of lakhs of teachers to bring the educational change and moots in literacy of the state. He distributed 4,00,000 bicycles among the girls of Bihar so that they can reach their college easily. I salute him for this idea.
The other reason has been the control over law and order in his states. This was the most corrupt part of Bihar. You would have seen in Gangaajal and other movies related to Bihar's corruption.
The semblance of Bihar is coated with Criminal activities. This is the worst part of Bihar because of which people fart criticism on Bihar and Biharis. Nitish has locked up 50,000 criminals in his kingdom. It is Nitish's era.
These are some of the small things Nitish did which bought a big effect in the cycle of Bihar which started running at the speed of UFO which we have never been successful in catching. Let's hope for the next 5 years of his rule to be the same as his last 5 years.
JAI HO NITISH KUMAR JI !!! SAADAR PRANAAM AAPKO !!!
I know I am unfollowing my modus operandi and posting a new blog post very soon. Some things are meant to be talked at the right moment otherwise the charm and the bizarreness of the same blurs out. I'll talk about the topic in a while but before that Congrats to all the Indians as we have won the match with a large margin. India won the 3rd and the last Test match against New Zealand by an inning and 198 runs. Rahul Dravid played a terrific inning of 191 runs. He is titled the man of the match. The Test series between both the countries ended here and Harbhajan Singh won the title of MAN OF THE SERIES. Wow. He has given his best in the series. I just loved his play. The two people who disappointed me with their performances were Sachin Tendulkar and Suresh Raina. With their previous performances, they have compelled us to expect more from them and they have failed to live up to the expectations. Fine. But I am happy with the performance of our team. We Rocked !!!
Yesterday, the most successful episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati was aired. Everyone watched the show with immense excitement and suspense. Rahat Taslim, a woman contestant won the prize amount of Rs. 1 Crore. She is the first woman contestant ever on Kaun Banega Crorepati to win a Crore amount. She has broken all the records. She has made many people to get off their seats and get to the work. She has shown us the way to success even if the people and the society pull you back. She has shown that if you believe in yourself, the world will have to believe in you. Mostly it is considered that women are having a limited bit of knowledge and thus they can't be the winner or they can't overcome the landmarks achieved by the men. Indira Gandhi proved it wrong when she won and became Prime Minister. Pratibha Patil proved this recently by sitting on the post of President of India. If the technical field is talked about, recently a women is being appointed for driving the local train. So, women have shown the men that you don't only have to compete with your gender but you will also have to consider us while counting your competitors.
Rahat Taslim, a Muslim women, who has a curiosity to learn and a passion to study was made to marry at the age of 17. She had to leave her studies but she completed her graduation by going against her in-laws. Her husband also asked her to sit at the home as even his morale didn't allowed a women to proceed and work in the life. When she got selected for Crorepati, she didn't had fare to reach Mumbai by airways and she took loans from her friends and neighbors and came to the show. She didn't had a bank account and thus she asked her husband to create a bank account for her. She issued her PAN CARD herself. On the last day of the week, she came on the Hot Seat. She told that she knew she will reach the hot seat. When Big B asked her that what will she do with the amount, she said that if I'll win 25,00,000, I'll open a boutique. Amitabh Bachchan showed impossibility and at 3,20,000 he said that now at least you can open a small boutique. When she won 3,20,000 rs, she said that I have never seen such a big amount in her life. She compelled everyone to love her. She became the favorite contestant of all.
But yesterday, when she started playing, WOW, what a confidence was delivered from her side. After 3,20,000, the timer clock is thrown out of the game because people get tensed by the level of questions and pressures, but she continued to be confident and she answered all the questions in 1 minute. What a lady !!! For the question of 1 Crore, she used her Phone-a-friend lifeline and she got no help from the supporter. Then she used Double Dip and gave the wrong answer in the first chance. At the second chance, she gave the right answer and became the first lady to win 1 CRORE rupees in the biggest reality show of India. She never knew the answer of the 12th question but she knew the answer of her level of knowledge and destiny. She knew that if its written in the destiny, I'll win and if its not written, I'll go back with 3,20,000. What a respect for that lady. People underestimate the people who are the most talented. Her husband told that I never believed when she said that I have knowledge. Whatever she is, she is because of her belief on herself. What a true example and an inspiring one.
Now, I have a little varied topic than this. When Prashant Batar didn't knew the answer of 5 Crore rupees and played it and lost, people abused him and even criticized me for supporting his decision. Now, when Mrs. Rahat Taslim did the same with 1 Crore's question and won it, everyone is celebrating and going gaga over her decision. By chance, if she would have lost, she would have been accused. We, the people of India, are really emotional. We keep the Winner in our mind and forget the same if they lose one day. Think upon this. And Respect for this lady - Mrs. Rahat Taslim. A big salute to her.
Its 23rd November today. A very special day for me. There are two rationales for it. Lets speak about the first one. Its the birthday of one of the dearest friend - Prashant Nepte. I wasn't close to him some months ago. I used to feel that he is a boring stuff and therefore he don't interact much. There were many more misconceptions. But I don't know how did our relation grew so stronger and firm that today he is the best buddy to hang out with. He is interesting and I love talking to him and planning about the future ideas and different innovations. He wants to be a Photographer. I have seen some of his snaps and I am pretty sure that he will become an International Photographer very soon. On this birthday, I wish him a many many happy returns of the day. May he live a long and happy life. And I hope that he turns into a Photographer soon. I love ambitious people and he is surely the one. Prashant, a very Happy Birthday to you from the behalf of the ARB team.
Now, coming to the second reason which makes 23rd November a very important and essential day of my life and my family. Its the 22nd Marriage Anniversary of my parents. I am so happy and I am feeling as its my wedding today. Haha. I have always admired the co-ordination and relation of my parents. They have treated each other with lots of respect. I have read so many times in newspaper and magazines that people don't tolerate their partner and file the petition for divorcing and making their marriage life a topic of gossip and laughter in the society and the world. Two people coming from different societies and lifestyles accept each other and start living their life with togetherness. They plan for the future and they make their present as beautiful as possible. I have always seen my parents laughing and sharing their small small happiness with each other and thus their relationship is so sweet that I can easily give the example to anyone in my life.
The patience and the ability to make the partner feel comfortable is the best essential of their relationship. The initial days of their marriage life was too hard but the way they have overcomed it and wrote their own destiny is worth commendable. Their love can be seen with this example - They have completed their 22 years of marriage today and I have already crossed 21 years of my life. Hahaha. Sorry, no glamor talks for parents. Haha. Sorry Mom and Dad. I always admire one decision of my parents. I criticized this idea some years ago but with the ages the maturity grew into me and now I feel that this one decision from them has made our life so beautiful and mainly my life. I know you may be abusing me that why am I not telling that one decision. Ok. The decision of keeping a SINGLE CHILD is the best decision they have taken and implanted in their life. This has made our life so easy and smooth. The costly world now don't matter us a much because we know that we are 3 members and we can afford our stomach and tit-bit-of-luxurious-life. This has made them to love me as much as they can and this made possible for them to fulfill all my wishes. I would suggest everyone reading this post to imply the same in your life. Try to keep a SINGLE CHILD and see the difference. Its a tough decision but its the best one. What an Idea Sir Jee !!! To my parents. ;-)
On this 22nd Marriage Anniversary, I would like to give them lots of love and hugs. They are the most beautiful parents. Such a hard-working father and such a mother. I can't define my mother. In short, she is an all-rounder and loved by all. I pray to God that my parents keep loving each other in the same way and keep guiding and nourishing me with the same zeal in future too. I would also pray for myself that I get the same parents in each birth because I have adjusted with them now. Haha. Sorry Mom Dad once again. ;-) My all the wishes and love to them for today.
It has been a long time since any reader has sent me a piece of word which he/she would want to share with people and the followers of ARB. This is a new start again. This post is sent to me by Mr. Kul Bhushan Garg. He is 65 years old. Yes, he is really 65 years old and he is as a grandfather for me. When he shared with me that he wants to post something through our blog - ARB, I was so enthralled that I asked him to send the post as soon as possible as I would love to see what will you write. Before talking anything more about him - let me share his Twitter account's link with you where you can find and follow him - Mr. Kul Bhushan Garg's Tweets . After looking at his age, I thought that he may send a boring and out-of-date post but he really made me surprised by the post and its matter. Three cheers and a lot of kudos to you, dadaji. Now let's move forward and read what he had shared with us. Do comment on this.
FOREWORD BY Mr. KUL BHUSHAN GARG :-
I am trying to enter a new field of writing ,The encouragement to do so was provided by my new friend Abhilash who came into my contact through facebook a/c of my dear grand daughter only about a month ago.I am simply impressed & delighted to read his blogs.He is doing a marvelous job at such a young age.He is the spirit & motivation behind my new venture where I am trying to do something not done by me so far in my life of 65 years although I have been a great reader.
MY CHILDHOOD !!!
I think everybody has vivid memories of his or her childhood- both good or bad, pleasant or unpleasant. I too remember many things from the period when I was hardly 5or6 yrs old. I used to play with a girl in my neighborhood. We used to sit on the roof of their house on a flat wide boundary wall. Her mother was so busy that she never watched us what we were doing or where we were sitting.
One day we started quarreling over something & she just pushed me knowing little what it could mean.I remember falling down from a height of about 15-20 feet in the street outside their house. My mother told me what had happened during the intervening period of 4-5 days when I regained consciousness. I had become unconscious after falling down. Some passer-by had informed my mother. She had gone there running, picked me up in her lap,brought me home ,informed my father by sending a messenger to his shop. In those days there were no hospitals or doctors in our village. There was a local Govt. dispensary manned by a compounder. My father requested him to come to our house with him and give whatever medical aid he could provide.I remained unconscious for 4 days as lot of blood had gone out of my left forehead.My parents had lost all hopes of my survival but I was destined to live.So I am alive till now.
This incident is so vivid in my mind that I recollect it many times.I still remember that girl, she was so afraid & panicy after this incident that she never played with me thereafter. When we grew up,she used to feel very shy & repentant for what she had done to me unknowingly. I used to chide her jokingly that she had killed me but I was powerful enough to come back from the jaws of 'Kaal'-the death.
There are many other sweet memories of my childhood. We used to go to a nearby school. I still remember my first day in school when I was taken there by my father.He had taken with him some sweets to be distributed to the class fellows. I was very much unwilling to go there and started weeping when my father went out leaving me in the company of strangers.Somehow I spent a few hours in the school but was sent to my house thru someone residing near our house. I remember being acoustomed to going to school daily after a few days only as I had made some friends there and no longer felt lonely.In fact I used to be first to reach school even the main gate was yet to be opened by the guard. He used to laugh at my punctuality. This habit of reaching early everywhere is continuing even today. I am never never late whenever and wherever I have to go, whether it is a party or a cinema show or a marriage party or a meeting, I never reached my office late in my entire career of 37 years except a few occasions when I am stuck in heavy traffic jam.
Some habits continue with a person throughout the life. I too carry with me many habits imbibed in me in my childhood.
I think I should stop now as this may not be too & long hence boring. Rest in my next post.
Hope u will enjoy reading it. Thanks for ur support & guidance. Do comment.
Don't you feel lonely? Don't you get frustrated? Don't you feel like running out of bedroom? Don't you feel like abusing your parents for the invidious they did with you? Don't you ever feel that you are sick of being alone every time? Don't you feel that a company would have made your life more enrich and bizarre? Don't you feel awkward in the public to say that you are alone and single?
These are just seven questions I have shared here otherwise if you'll ask me to allude all the questions being asked to me about this topic, I would keep writing them for next 6 hours. People feel curious to ask me about my feelings and my life. The reason - I am the the SINGLE CHILD of my parents. I have no brother or sister. This is the reason why some people treat me as Alien. They feel like I am different from the world. They feel like I may be in the amidst of melancholy and I want to cry and I need someone's shoulder to cry and share my pains. I feel like laughing at them and I feel that they are alien to me. Haha. I know people are curious to know about the feeling of the person who have no brother or sister but they shouldn't show the excitement which says that you are not-a-human and I want to know about your distinct world and lifestyle.
Mostly, it is found that SINGLE CHILD is sad and depressed. A loneliness and the scarcity of conversation always keep them isolated and sometimes they behave as a recluse too. It is hard for some Single child to cope up with the society and get mixed up and collaborated with the mobs and groups. They are conscious while speaking their heart out to someone as they have lived in an environment from their childhood times where they had no one to speak out. And the biggest problem with SINGLE CHILD is that the parents expect a lot from them and keep them pressurized to attain their dreams. This makes the child isolated from the parents and he/she keeps shivering whenever it comes to talk about their personal feelings with their parents. So because of the isolation in the house, it shows the same effect in the outside world where a person should be social and talkative (to some extent).
I have always been a child who had many things inside him. He wanted to show it to the people. He wanted to talk as much as he can. My mother was always friendly to me but my father wasn't. His only aim and objective in my childhood time was to kick and sue me whenever he saw me passing time and enjoying (Now he is better than my mother ;-)). He wanted me to keep studying in whatever condition I am. This made the relation of my father and me very loose and weak (Now it's strong and firm). He expected 90% from me, best in every curricular activities organized by school, performance in all the cultural activities of the colony and so on. In the childhood, sometimes I felt that Yes, I am Alone. After the playing time, when I used to come home, I used to miss my friends. I used to think that they may be enjoying with their siblings right now and I have no one to talk to. This made me sad sometimes but it didn't let the performer inside me to die. As soon as I used to enter school bus, I used to start my naughtiness and do some or the other masti and dhamaal. I used to be in the Top List of the Controversial Personality of the Colony !!! (No Double Child or Triple child was as mischievous as me).
Now, for a SINGLE CHILD, parents can be the best motivator and encourager. The best part of being a SINGLE CHILD is that they get all the attention of the parents. Parents should be interactive and playful. They should stop behaving like a parent every time and should be a friend first. I had my mother as my friend. I shared everything with her. She always supported me and therefore I never went into depression because of loneliness and isolation. I had good friends. So they were not less than any brother and brethren.
I have always seen advantages in being a SINGLE CHILD. I never had to hide anything from anyone in my bedroom. I never had to share my bed and cupboard with anyone. If I am on computer, I am in no tension that my brother or sister may be returning from college and I'll have to hand the PC to him/her. I knew that if I want a mobile of 9,000, I'll get it and there will be no one to argue with my parents to get him/her a mobile too. Otherwise parents gift the mobile to both but divide the budget as 4,500 each. This is the worst disadvantage of having a sibling. The biggest advantage of being a SINGLE CHILD is no comparison and no targets to achieve more than the sibling to get more respect from parents. One person from the diabolic world is less to argue with. There is no tension of being exposed of everything I do outside the door. Siblings keep blackmailing their bro/sis of revealing their little and big crimes what they did in the school bus or college or anywhere. I am safe from this side too.
The only problem of being a SINGLE CHILD may be my son or daughter because they will have no place to visit in the holidays. They will have no cousins to play with. They will have no Chacha, tau and buaa. They may feel that my Father is so boring to have no one with him. Haha. But I feel that it is nice. It will be nice for my wife as she will be free from maintaining any kind of relativity with the extended family. No riwaaz and no customs to be performed. No len-den and no wastage of money in keeping the unwanted relatives happy and blissful.
The main problem of having a sibling is - When you see that he or she is sitting with the parents and having wonderful conversations and parents are showering all the love on him or her, you feel inferior and ignored. This is the most of the time when the child with sibling cries in the locked bedroom. At last I have no such reason to cry for.
So the conclusion is that being a SINGLE CHILD is interesting and it has more advantages than having a sibling. My personal experience. Recently, according to a survey, the result said that Single Child are more happier than the one who share their space with their siblings. So stop looking us as Aliens. I Am A SINGLE CHILD And I Am Not An Alien is as obvious as My Name Is KHAN and I Am Not A Terrorist. ;-)
This is one of the most important blog post related to my life and a small confession about it.
So many of you are asking that how did I forgot to publish a post yesterday. A hard answer to this. Many well-wishers may not feel good to hear this. Yesterday I went to Saquib's house.He is one of my classmate. He invited all the boys of our class on the occasion of Bakra-Eid. I went to his house. I didn't ate anything as I was having the fast of Sai Baba. While returning from his house, my head started paining and I wanted to vomit as soon as possible but as I was stuck into the crowd of local train, it wasn't possible to do anything. I was waiting to come home as soon as possible. As soon as I entered the room, I ran towards the bathroom and there it happened what I was waiting for - I vomited and now I was feeling quite lighter than before. My head was still paining and so I thought to take rest rather than pushing my body for more work and commitments. I took a sound sleep of 4 hours. When I woke up, I felt better. But when I thought of writing a post to connect with the beautiful readers and friends, the body asked for more sleep and rest. I agreed to sleep because if I wouldn't, I would have felt low even today and thus two days would have been wasted but now I have gained today. I had 3 commitments out of which 2 has been fulfilled. The only 1 which is left is studies and preparation for the examination. ;-)
I am really disappointed and solaced with my activities. My dear friends and readers are poking me every time I am mentioning about my carelessness that its not the time when you should take your studies lightly, it is the time to collaborate day and night and make your academic line as smooth and brighter as much as you can. I am hoping to do something great but my body and mind are not connecting with each other. When the mind asks to open the book and mug up, the body feels tired. When the body asks the same, the mind says NO. I know this situation is quite dangerous and evil but I am praying to God that I come out of this terrible situation and start studying like all my classmates. My classmates are wonderful. They never tell about their progress in studies. I don't know why. Neither am I going to steal your brain and not even its possible for you to do the same. We all know that we are here in the college to study and to make our career. The only difference is that ki someone will make it quite successful while someone will make it mediocre while someone will fail in making the same. But everyone know the purpose of being in the college and doing Computer Applications. I hope my classmates will grow up and share the tips to study with each other.
I have seen the past where I failed tremendously and consistently. I don't want myself to fall in that part of the life again. I want to put my head high and keep walking the street to meet my destination as soon as I can. My exams are starting from 6th of December. If not from now, then it will not be possible for me to slog at the last moment. I know I am at a quite dangerous position now. Either start studying or stop hoping to clear the exam with the target percentage. Already my graph of academic line has seen an inclination by 10% in the last semester. It is an another thing that the average of both the semester summed up to a respective markings but I am not satisfied with my performance. I hope I'll at least manage to secure my target percentage if not a great score. Actually its my mistake but it also complies to the surroundings and the situations which kept on creeping my life. Once if you climb a particular ladder, people don't want you to come down or fall down again. They just want you to keep climbing and creating the records and maintaining your potential. The best example is the game of KBC. When the contestant wins a big amount like 25 Lakhs or 50 Lakhs, people and audience don't want the contestant to make a mistake and fall down to 3,20,000. The same happens in our life. Nobody wants to see you in the lower position after you achieve a respective position.
I hope that I will gain strength and power to study as soon as possible. I have prayed for the same yesterday while reading the Sai Chalisa and I am still pushing myself to open the notes and start mugging up the danger algorithms and concepts. Please pray for me as you all have been the best supporters ever. My real friend circle isn't so beautiful as my blog's connection is. The people who have never seen me keep on praising me and supporting me just by reading my blogs and my thoughts. Please pray for me and wish me good luck.
After rejecting my mind's decision which kept on irritating the writer in me by repeating the cowardice words that you don't have any thoughts, go back and sleep, have rest and then write a blog tomorrow with a fresh and working mind. I thought why to leave the space of connect when there will be few people who may be waiting for what issue ARB has raised and mooted today. Some may say that we aren't getting anything about your life through your blogs which was the main reason why ARB came into the powers and associations with the hearts of many. Many would be saying that ARB has turned into an online portal of a reporter. Hahaha. I am sorry for talking about the current issues in abundance and exuberance. I can't resist my views when I read newspaper and find some crazy news. I come on the blog and post my views. I want the people to know about some issues which are mostly lost in the amidst of news which has nothing to do with our society and people. I am not from the bloggers who share their favorite cake's name and brand. I am the one who tries to decipher that the cake eaten by the people is pure or not. If impure, then a post on it so that people can know that the cake consumed by them may lead to the problems in their physique in the near future. This is what I am trying to do with my blog now-a-days.
I am getting a huge applauds from many of you for my work. This can be easily seen through the comments you are making on my works. An artist always want the feedback. If there is no feedback, he keeps on struggling to get it, if he don't get the same even after that, he starts experimenting with his work which leads to the downward inclination to the talent and the outcome he gave. This has happened with me in the past therefore I am aware of it. But currently, ARB is at its best. I never knew that there will be a day when people will really read my blogs regularly and make it a part of their regimen. Different peoples have different timings to read my blog. This makes the consistency on my blog for the whole day. Visitors keep visiting my blog throughout the day and hence my blog keep on dancing for the whole day. The aim is to serve the readers. The people who are interested in reading and its their passion, they always starve to get something new and different to read. I try to present an articulate write-up for them. And when they appreciate the work, all the efforts and hard works you had put in it, gets its fruit.
Tonight, I wanted to take some break from the type of posts I keep writing so I thought of talking with all of you. There should be some gossips naa?? If there would have been no gossip, there would have been no Bigg Boss. Right? Lets not talk about this show today. I will talk about it tomorrow as two contestants are going to be hurled from the show. So we will have a synopsis about the show tomorrow or anytime in future. But for today, its chats and gossips. Today, our organization- ARB touched one more remarkable feat which will be counted whenever the talks of our platform will conquer the people's conversation. The author of "A Feeling Beyond Words" - MR. ABHISHEK KOTHARI came to our blog, read it and liked it. In the words of appreciation, he denoted the name of his book too which was something special. The compliment of the honorable writer is -
I am just speechless every time our portal - ARB touches a feat or a marking where aiming is also risky. Did I ever thought on 31st July, 2009 (the day when I started Blogging) that I'll get numerous published authors as my readers? Did I ever though that my idol - Amitabh Bachchan and Chetan Bhagat will read my blog and compliment me for my passion? Never. I never ever dreamed about it. I always thought one thing that I'll never stop writing in whatever condition. I tried to maintain it but I lacked every time. But my readers and my dear friends never complaint. They were always happy that I am almost regular on the blog, either its my exam or its something festive, I am there to interact with the people who are aimlessly sitting on Internet and want something interesting to do. I gift my Blog to them. I would like all of you to thank Mr. Abhishek to share his kind words with us and thus helping us to make our Interaction Platform more bigger than what it is. A big salute to him from my side and my team's side. My prelim exams are going on. I don't want to study as I want to take a break from studies in this semester. I haven't declared this in front of my parents because they will surely get a minor heart-attack after hearing this. I haven't told to anybody as they will laugh on me. I am confessing this for the first time. Its late. Its 2 AM. Lets go and sleep. A big hug to all of you.
Today is the day of devotion. Today is the day of prayers. Today is the day of celebration. Today is one of the most celebrated festival of the world - Bakra Eid which is also known as Eid-Al-Adha. The festival is celebrated by Islam followers i.e. Muslims. But the enthusiasm of the festival can be seen in the Non-muslim mob too. This festival is also known as "Festival of Sacrifice". On this day, an animal is slaughtered to sacrifice for the God. The only animals allowed to be sacrificed are - Cow, goat, sheep and Camel. Mainly, Goat is used as the name refers to BAKRI-Eid and also because many Hindus eat goats too so its easy to share and celebrate with them. The meat should be divided into 3 parts to be distributed amongst others. The family keeps 1/3rd part of the share, another part is given to family, friends and neighbors and the third part is distributed amongst poor and needy.
The history behind this festival goes like this - Abrahim prayed to Allah a lot for a child. At last with the blessings of Allah, Abrahim is graced with a son whom he names Ishmael. When Ishmael was about 13 (Ibrahim being 99), Allah (God) decided to test their faith in and submission to Allah in public. Both father and son were put through the most difficult test of their love for Allah. Abraham had a recurring dream, in which God was commanding him to offer his son as a sacrifice – an unimaginable act – sacrificing his son, which God had granted him after many years of deep prayer, the one who had been the center of his affection and love for all these years. Abraham knew that the dreams of the prophets were inspired by Allah, and one of the ways in which God communicated with his prophets. This must be what Allah had wanted him to do.
When the intent of the dreams became clear to him, Abraham decided to fulfil God's command and offer his beloved son in sacrifice. Although Abraham was ready to sacrifice his dearest for Allah’s sake, he could not just go and drag his son to the place of sacrifice without his consent. Isma'el had to be consulted as to whether he was willing to give up his life as fulfillment to God's command. This consultation would be a major test of Isma'el’s maturity in faith, love and commitment for Allah, willingness to obey his father and sacrifice his own life for the sake of Allah.
Abraham presented the matter to his son and asked for his opinion about the dreams of slaughtering him. Ishmael’s reaction was absolutely astounding. He did not show any hesitation or reservation even for a moment. He said, “Father, do what you have been commanded. You will find me, Insha'Allah (God willing), to be very patient.” His mature response, his deep insight into the nature of dad’s dreams, his commitment to Allah, and ultimately his willingness to sacrifice his own life for the sake of Allah were all unprecedented. When both father and son had shown their perfect obedience to Allah and they had practically demonstrated their willingness to sacrifice their most precious possessions for His sake—Abraham by laying down his son for sacrifice and Ishmael by lying patiently under the knife – Allah called out to them stating that his sincere intentions had been accepted, and that he need not carry out the killing of Ishmael. Instead, Abraham was told to replace his son with a ram(animal) to sacrifice instead. Allah also told them that they had passed the test imposed upon them by his willingness to carry out God's command.
Abraham had shown that his love for his god superseded all others: that he would lay down his own life or the lives of those dearest to him in submission to God's command. Muslims commemorate this ultimate act of sacrifice every year during Eid al-Adha. Wonderful belief and wonderful celebration. I have a little problem with the numerous death of goats on the day. They are bought for high prices starting from 5,000 to 1.5 Lakh just for slaughtering and killing them. I am in no position to point out the fingers on the people who are killing the animal as I am a non-vegetarian too and I eat chicken and fish and goat. I am not killing but I am eating that animal. This indirectly means that I eat it and therefore the shopkeeper kills it. It is sad. Being a human being, we are killing the animals because they aren't as powerful as we are.
Suppose there would have been a creature more powerful, stronger, intellectual than human beings made by God. There would have been a day when these creatures believed that a human should be sacrificed by each of them and they will have to slaughter humans and eat their meat. Just imagine how terrible our life would have been. Even hiding in a room by keeping the doors locked would not have been the option to save ourself as the creatures are stronger than us in both the features-Physical and mental. Same is done with Goats on this day. I just don't like this part of the festival. I pointed out ill-beliefs of Hindus on Diwali, Ganeshotsav and Navratri. Same here, Muslims are doing little wrong here. I have some Muslim friends who don't believe in sacrificing an animal for the sake of eating and distributing. They don't participate in this part of the festival. They wish their Muslim friends and make a normal sewai and sheerkorma rather than the meat.
I am feeling ashamed of talking about this topic as I am the criminal too. Even I eat goat's meat. But I think its wrong and the worst part of the festival. Muslims have answers to all the questions regarding the slaughtering of goats and other animals on the day of Eid but I don't find any answers convincing my soul and mind.
I would like to apologize to all my Muslim brothers. Its just a personal view. Even I am a non-vegetarian but I feel this is not right. And I would also apologize if I have posted something wrong as the history of this festival. If you find one, please notify me, I'll correct it. No offense to the religion and the pious people is meant. Any statement above stating is unintentional. Happy Eid to all of you.Eat as much meat, kheema, biryani, kabab tomorrow and share with me too. ;-)
Recently, you would have heard that a political party which is our government now - Congress is revolutionizing against a member of RSS party for their statements against Sonia Gandhi and the Nehru family who gave birth to INC. Sometimes, its doubtful that the government which is meant to bring peace and maintain the same in the territories of a nation is violating their promises and responsibilities themselves. This is the moment when you start hating your country for the things happening here. You start boycotting the national events and happenings and you turn to be non-patriotic. You stop loving your country because your government is violent and senseless. The sensibility is questioned. The Prime Minister, President, Chief Minister and all other ministers who are sitting on the highest positions do nothing when these incidents takes place in your nation except watching the media channels, appreciating the violent activity and then scratching their groin with a bloody smile on their face. This is what they do. When the Obama comes to the nation, people are asked not to play crackers near the place where the President of USA would be residing, just after he leaves the country, the government which imposed this rule themselves start to create violence and revolution which is much more jeopardizing and danger than the sound of bombs.
I know many of you will raise questions on my view after reading the first paragraph. Your problem would be that why am I inculpating only the Congress party which is the victim of the whole incident. Let me come to the main issue and the main perspective now. KS Sudarshan (naam to suna hi hoga? Nahii? Ok. He is former RSS sarsanghchalak) made a statement that Indira Gandhi was responsible for the death of Lal Bahadur Shastri while Sonia Gandhi had a hand in the assassinations of her mother-in-law and husband. This can show us the diabolism of a person who is a renowned member of the party RSS. I just can't digest the shit he spoke. After hearing this, I felt like ass-ass-inating him. I haven't still understood that why a new party is formed with a tag of political party and why not patriotic party? I think their main aim while formation is just to participate in the hot conversations with the members of competing party or to play politics rather than give birth to new ideas which can raise the standards of our country.
These remarks made by KS Sudarshan is hard to digest and belief. This totally show that the man is insouciant for the country and the countrymen. Even this fact cannot be ignored while talking about RSS that it had shown a beautiful support and heuristics while the nation struggled because of natural calamities and during the wars. Their concerns and onus has been remarkable. But this doesn't give them license and privilege to slander and slaughter the values of other people and political leaders. The libel should be avoided by such a person. Just take the case if the daughter of KS Sudarshan is kidnapped and someone states that the girl is not kidnapped but she ran with someone with whom she wanted to have physical relations. What would have been the emotions of Mr. Sudarshan? He would have gone mad. He would have retaliated. Here is the case when someone is targeting your daughter only because she wanted to have some physical pleasures, what about the woman who had lost her mother-in-law and husband in the game of politics. The woman who lived a life of a widow from an early age? This should be thought before showing any type of bigotry.
KS Sudarshan is the first criminal in this case. He should be punished for stating an unethical remark. He should be taught that there are some dogmas in which a leader should talk and act. He should not break the unsaid laws and cross the limits. It is not a new thing to hear about a political leader stating unkind words for an another political leader of another party but there's a Laxman Rekha which no leader crosses while showing the angst in the public. He should be punished for crossing the line of limit and confine. Secondly, the activists from the Congress party should be penalized for creating violence in the nation. They should be given an ultimatum that this should not be repeated. Even if someone stated your leader as a culprit, this doesn't mean that you should protest in this way. Just lodge a complain to the government and ask for the arrest for the person. This can be done in a legal way. Why to protest and blemish the environment of peace? Hope this case gets resolved as soon as possible. And lets pray that no leader gives a libel statement anytime in future.
Today I am going to do something articulate which I have never done on our blog - ARB. One of my Blogger friend - Vijay Rajputwho is a great reader asked me to do something different. Let me introduce him to all of you. I have always followed his reviews. He is not a critic but he is the man who introduces you to the good books. His approachability towards the Writers and the Books is great I just admire him for his work. Recently, he tagged me in one of his blogs. I have been tagged for number of times by Blogger who gave some awards and indirectly asked for some awards to be given to them from me. I never indulged myself in such acts. It is not a kind of thing a Writer should do. As I want to be the one, I ignore this time pass. But when Vijay tagged me for an activity to be performed by me and shared on the blog, I agreed. The rationale was just that it was a fun loving thing and a motive to make the readers laugh and enjoy.
Activity is quite musical. The rule is to answer some questions. But how to Answer? I just have to play a new song randomly through shuffle play every time a new question is asked and give the title of the song as the answer even if its silly and have no connection with the question's demand.

I am a great follower of Bigg Boss. I still don't know why but I am. You can call me stupid, you can call me dumb, idiot, jack*** etc etc etc. But what can I do when my heart doesn't allow me to ignore the substance and go for a different option. Many people have a confusion over this show that what exactly is show about. What is the real perspective. It is nothing except the quest to find yourself in the characters and know how to handle the variations in a single character and fight with the humans to maintain your dignity and standards. We are living in a stable society and hence we have people who are interested in our back-bitching rather than mortifying us from the front in the public. But by chance, if this happens untimely when you aren't prepared for this, how will you defend yourself? This is what the episodes of Bigg Boss teaches us. I have learned a lot from this reality show which is often inculpated to be fake and scripted. No problem. At least it is better than that Saans-Bahu drama through which no change in personality occurs rather than one - Gossiping.
Recently, I was browsing through channels when I saw some media reporters with an imaam sahib of Islam, A Pandit of Hindu, Vindoo and Kamaal Khan - recent contestants of Bigg Boss Reality Show and many other common people. I stayed on the channel and started following the program. They were discussing about the Suhaagraat (Honeymoon) of Ali-Sara which was telecasted in one of the episodes of Bigg Boss. I was stunned to see that media had problem with such a issue which is comparatively nothing in front of the Adarsh issue, 2G Scam issue and so many other issues which has effected Indian emotions and Country's finance in a destructive manner.
I saw that Bigg Boss episode they were discussing about. After their(Ali-Sara's) marriage on television, they were allotted a special room to stay for a night as it is the culture of Indian Marriage that on the first night, the couples are made to sleep together without anyone's permission to enter the room. They have beautiful talks and it is mainly considered that the couple enjoy their first sex on this day. I don't know whether every couple do this or not. I'll surely do. ;-) If you are born in this month, then your parents enjoyed the first intimacy on the Valentine's Day. Hahaha. What a calculation.
But they didn't did something which was too objective or meant offensive to the audiences watching it. Sara was holding Ali and they had blankets to cover their holding positions. They didn't even kissed each other. I am still in the modus operandi of DNA to find what was so objectionable and obnoxious that media wasted their 5 hours of crucial time in showing their intimacy scenes. Media had the problem that why are such scenes shown in the great reality show like Bigg Boss which is famous in majority of the family who watch it together with other members of the family. They were asking common people that don't they face problem when such scenes are shown on the television's leading channel at the Prime Time. The channel and the show showed the scene once in the Prime Time. But my dear media channel, you are showing the same scenes at the rate of 15 times in a minute. At this rate, you are showing it for 5 hours on different channels. The show showed it once in the Prime Time, you are showing it at every time - Day Time, Noon time and Evening time. What about you?
You show that you are the people who are meant to allude such issues in the public and hence make them aware of the excess which is blemishing the beauty of the society and culture. If you are the people who want these scenes to be unavailable on the channels, why are you repeating the same scene for 500 times on your media channels which is surely watched in the public? Vindoo answered to one of the question of the reporter that if people are having the problem with the scenes as it is unacceptable, they have the remote control of the television in their hand. They can just switch over the channel and watch Kaun Banega Crorepati which is telecasted on the same time when this show is telecasted. They will also gain knowledge with the show. The answer is so correct and germane. This is the best remedy of all the discussions and points mooted by the media. Media could have suggested their viewers about this in 5 minutes by criticizing the show and asking their viewers to unfollow the show and not to watch Colors from 9 to 10. But they are so dumb that they can't understand what a child like me can also suggest.
They were talking about the quest of channels to gain the best TRP because of which they show such visuals which attract viewers. I felt like laughing madly. Media are themselves running behind TRP and they are pointing fingers on others. Haha. Our Indian media is really intolerable. I just think that if publishers will start printing newspaper in less quantity in future as they will face problems in meeting the demands of the high population, we will have to depend on the News Channels. But the News Channels are the Carbon Copy of Saans-Bahu Channels which helps the housewives to track the recaps of the episodes they have missed last night. Hope our Indian media gets some brain and they start being sensible with the news they offer us to see.
Lets hope. I know its impossible but may be they will grow matured.
Yesterday, I wrote about Jawaharlal Nehru in short and shared his speech he delivered on the midnight of 15th August, 1947 when India got its freedom and independence. I got mixed responses on the speech. I am thankful to the God to give me an idea to share the speech. Some said that it is wonderful. A grandfather is reading my blogs regularly and he shares the incredulity of the speech of Nehru while there's a young friend who says that Nehru was none other than a selfish politician and a dumb twat. Different views and perceptions make an issue controversial. I have always seen that talking about a particular thing in excess and above confinements is always an act of blemished. But then these issues can't be ignored. Nehru is our first Prime Minister and we can't ignore him. We will have to talk about him on times whenever we need to discuss him and his strategies. Some would say that he is a genius while some are there who may upbraid him. Its wonderful to debate. But when you lack in the deep knowledge on the subject, its better to be quietus than giving a take on the statements presented by the persons. But readers are superb. They compel me to slog more to be more knowledgeable. A salute to all of you.
Being as knowledgeable as the person who is sitting opposite to you and clamoring salubrious statements is always a desire and dream. But for that you should be enough dedicated and heuristic towards the hard work required to be as the person you are inspired by. I remember one incident my friend shared with me. It was so moving and real. He was sitting with his cousin sisters. He was in 1st year Engineering while the girls were in MBBS in the Top Institute. The sisters were talking in High class English. He was feeling little inferior and poor after he experienced their strength in the command of the language. He thought of being little more ostentatious as the sisters were proving themselves to be the masters. His sister shared something very informative which he wasn't aware of. He knew a word which he thought of using at this moment to show that even he is powerful in vocabulary. He clamored,"You have a great Sense Of Humor." All the sisters looked at him in disrupt and one of them said,"Are you sure you are using this word at the right place?" This guy had a misconception that Sense Of Humor means Sense of Great Knowledge.
He faced the inferiority and insult that day. He felt pity of himself. From that day, he started reading newspaper. Wherever he got a word which he wasn't sure of, he browsed the dictionary and tried to mug up the word. Whenever he found a strange word, he learned its word meaning. After the onus he felt for himself and his personality development, he developed a great vocabulary in 8 months. Now he has a good vocabulary. He can talk like his cousin sisters. He can sit with them with his head high and straight. His life and command changed after that. He never knew how to use the sentences with the new words he learned everyday and I gave him a suggestion to join Twitter and use the words in his tweets without caring how many people are following him and how many are abusing him. He started doing this and this helped him form sentences with the words he learned.
This is how anyone can be as knowledgeable as the person you admire. This is what I wanted to convey to the people who are still dreaming to be like someone. I read some articles in newspapers and I felt that I am far behind in current affairs and general knowledge. That was the day when I started reading newspapers like anything. Today, I feel that I have some knowledge. I still have a big space to improve. I started implementing my knowledge through my blogs by writing my views on some social happenings on the regular basis. Readers even complimented for it and I felt great. It motivated and everyday, I brush later but I go through the headlines first. And the first thing I do in the free time is go through each and every article so that I don't miss any knowledgeable one. This has really helped me a lot.
Friends, I hope you understood what I wanted to suggest and convey.
Thanks. Your views are welcomed.
ABHILASH RUHELA - VEERU trying to be knowledgeable.
So its Children Day. A lovely day to celebrate. Parents can shower the love to their child by gifting them some valuable things and making them feel special. These days aren't meant to bless the children with love only for a day but it means that if you don't love the kids, start loving from now. Today, the Children Day is only celebrated in India and not in the world. Different countries celebrate Children Day according to their beliefs and priorities. We celebrate it because our first Prime Minister- Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru loved the children a lot. Whenever he met them he used to give them Red Roses. He was the only minister who loved children so passionately and selflessly and hence we Indians declared Children Day on his birthday. So, we also have the birthday of Jawaharlal Nehru today. May God bless his soul. He was one of the best Prime Minister we had. His late night speech on 15th August, 1947 is the most remarkable and remembered speech of the era as he announced that the world is sleeping but India has woke up now. Wow. It is so motivating.
Rather than giving my thoughts on Children Day, it is better to share Chacha Nehru's words on the eve of Freedom. It is considered to be one of the most effective and beautiful speeches of 20th Century. I have heard its Radio Telecast in a recording. I was moved to here his voice. But for my dear readers, I have the script of the speech. Read it below.
I
Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure, but very substantially. At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long supressed, finds utterance. It is fitting that at this solemn moment we take the pledge of dedication to the service of Inida and her people and to the still larger cause of humanity.
At the dawn of history India started on her unending quest, and trackless centuries are filled with her striving and the grandeur of her success and her failures. Through good and ill fortune alike she has never lost sight of that quest or forgotten the ideals which gave her strength. We end today a period of ill fortune and India discovers herself again. The achievement we celebrate today is but a step, an opening of opportunity, to the greater triumphs and achievements that await us. Are we brave enough and wise enough to grasp this opportunity and accept the challenge of the future?
Freedom and power bring responsibility. The responsibility rests upon this Assembly, a sovereign body representing the sovereign people of India. Before the birth of freedom we have endured all the pains of labour and our hearts are heavy with the memory of this sorrow. Some of those pains continue even now. Nevertheless, the past is over and it is the future that beckons to us now.
That future is not one of ease or resting but of incessant striving so that we may fulfil the pledges we have so often taken and the one we shall take today. The service of India means the service of the millions who suffer. It means the ending of poverty and ignorance and disease and inequality of opportunity. The ambition of the greatest man of our generation has been to wipe every tear from every eye. That may be beyond us, but as long as there are tears and suffering, so long our work will not be over.
And so we have to labour and to work, and work hard, to give reality to our dreams. Those dreams are for India, but they are also for the world, for all the nations and peoples are too closely knit together today for any one of them to imagine that it can live apart Peace has been said to be indivisible; so is freedom, so is prosperity now, and so also is disaster in this One World that can no longer be split into isolated fragments.
To the people of India, whose representatives we are, we make an appeal to join us with faith and confidence in this great adventure. This is no time for petty and destructive criticism, no time for ill-will or blaming others. We have to build the noble mansion of free India where all her children may dwell.
II
The appointed day has come-the day appointed by destiny-and India stands forth again, after long slumber and struggle, awake, vital, free and independent. The past clings on to us still in some measure and we have to do much before we redeem the pledges we have so often taken. Yet the turning-point is past, and history begins anew for us, the history which we shall live and act and others will write about.
It is a fateful moment for us in India, for all Asia and for the world. A new star rises, the star of freedom in the East, a new hope comes into being, a vision long cherished materializes. May the star never set and that hope never be betrayed!
We rejoice in that freedom, even though clouds surround us, and many of our people are sorrowstricken and difficult problems encompass us. But freedom brings responsibilities and burdens and we have to face them in the spirit of a free and disciplined people.
On this day our first thoughts go to the architect of this freedom, the Father of our Nation [Gandhi], who, embodying the old spirit of India, held aloft the torch of freedom and lighted up the darkness that surrounded us. We have often been unworthy followers of his and have strayed from his message, but not only we but succeeding generations will remember this message and bear the imprint in their hearts of this great son of India, magnificent in his faith and strength and courage and humility. We shall never allow that torch of freedom to be blown out, however high the wind or stormy the tempest.
Our next thoughts must be of the unknown volunteers and soldiers of freedom who, without praise or reward, have served India even unto death.
We think also of our brothers and sisters who have been cut off from us by political boundaries and who unhappily cannot share at present in the freedom
that has come. They are of us and will remain of us whatever may happen, and we shall be sharers in their good [or] ill fortune alike.
The future beckons to us. Whither do we go and what shall be our endeavor? To bring freedom and opportunity to the common man, to the peasants and workers of India; to fight and end poverty and ignorance and disease; to build up a prosperous, democratic and progressive nation, and to create social, economic and political institutions which will ensure justice and fullness of life to every man and woman.
We have hard work ahead. There is no resting for any one of us till we redeem our pledge in full, till we make all the people of India what destiny intended them to be. We are citizens of a great country on the verge of bold advance, and we have to live up to that high standard. All of us, to whatever religion we may belong, are equally the children of India with equal rights, privileges and obligations. We cannot encourage communalism or narrow-mindedness, for no nation can be great whose people are narrow in thought or in action.
To the nations and peoples of the world we send greetings and pledge ourselves to cooperate with them in furthering peace, freedom and democracy.
And to India, our much-loved motherland, the ancient, the eternal and the ever-new, we pay our reverent homage and we bind ourselves afresh to her service.
What a conduct of patriotism. I know you are not interested in reading my words after reading this. So its the time for me to exit. So Happy Children Day to everyone.
