Uri Movie Watchers Beware

Ultra nationalist!! They are not only looking for/ slaying mujahids on screen. Be high on nationalism as bullets might catch you off guard.

Movie was certainly high on jingoism but was a 101 class on How to not make war movies? It glorifies war/ revenge but in reality nobody wants a war. War is grotesque and nowhere was it evident in the movie. Battle of Normandy scene in Saving Private Ryan reminds you of horrors of war. You don’t see it from British/ American/ German perspective but from the perspective of human and the sheer carnage tells you that war is bad. Secondly, Where is the Anti Hero- Walter Kurtz of your movie? Whole movie was about brat packing Indian Intelligence agencies espionage activities and their covert operation whereas those who have been constantly planning those attacks on Indian soil (ISI) should have been given more screen time. Their strategy/ planning/ execution and networking should have been covered in depth. Thirdly, you must credit your opponents or create equal turf. 4 terrorist attacked in Uri during day time and inflicted huge casualties and created furore in media whereas Indian soldiers attacked during night when terrorist where sleeping and even then they created a tense situation, it looked like botched up operation. Ridley Scotts’s Black Hawk Down reconstructs chain of events  in great details and gives actual experience of combat troops instead of making it entertaining. Fourthly, Aditya Dhar certainly needs to brush up his directing skills and focus more on minute details. There were many bloopers and it would take another blog to write about it but how does Vihaan (Vicky Kaushal) gets to know about covert operation. Fifthly, Pls pls pls purchase a world map as India and Pakistan do not live in an isolated world. Geopolitical situation and International Pressure should have been given some coverage. It could also bring one more aspect- importance of timing.

At Last, फर्ज़ और फर्ज़ी में एक मात्रा का फर्क होता है and I think you crossed that line.

                BULL,BEAR & ROMEOS

Girls are like a listed company in a stock exchange and boys are
investors supporting them to get advantage for themselves.But
sometimes these listed companies crashes ,values of their shares
plummet and investors are bankrupted. This leads to intervention by
govt. (mom and dad) who raises the fiscal deficit (pocket money) to
avoid debt crises.


Some common terms between them


Market capitalization :share price x no of shares outstanding


Share price:Eons before Larry Page discovered page rank analysis(in
simple terms go google it), we boys had our own page rank
technology.More the no. of boys ogling a girl higher the share price of
the girl.


These boys are termed as shareholders.


p/e ratio : market capitalization /total earning


p/e ratio : (share price x no of shares outstanding)


total earning


higher the p/e ratio :loss


lesser the p/e ratio :gain


In the context of girls no. of friends in a facebook is an indicator of p/e
ratio.


More the no. of boys in her friendlist,higher the share price,higher the


m cap & subsequently higher the p/e ratio and hence loss.and vice
versa lesser the no.of boys higher the gain.


So guys ,gear up. Stock market is not that difficult. If you can handle
girls ,you can handles shares as well.

                        WHEN ROMEO MET AHHHHHHH  !

            I don't mention you in my diary, for i want you to be my secret.

            I don't capture you in my pics , for i want you to be my memories.

            I don't share my feelings, for i want them to be my lullaby.

            I don't keep belongings as souveniours ,for it may fade away.

            I don't keep you in my eyes for it may roll down as tears.

            I don't introduce you in Fb ,for this world may steal you away from me.

            I don't call you by name . for it may revive our love at first sight.

            This is how I love you. 

     (at last, I had a great escape. 'bach gaya yaar'. kamse kam naam to yaad rakhna chahiye tha)

           Melancholy
                              - By Sandeep Samanta

Standing high upon the cliff,
far from the maddening world
feeling the wind that breezes against me
and hit my face
Showing me the failure of not having a companion
who could have stood by me
I had a question in my mind
Why isn't traffic music to me?
Why do i feel gauche in the company of others
living a life of recluse & morbid existence
paranoid about somebody entering my life
Thinking seems to act like a defense mechanism
plummeting the ambit of my thought
A life totally different from people of my age
It seems masochistic.
my solitude encompassed my existence.
I loved it , but now I loathe it

Loan waiver package for the farmers

The UPA govt has announced a rs 60,000 cr loan waiver package for the farmer in this years budget . while the govt believes that this step was necessary to improve the miserable condition of farmers in the country ,some people feel that this money should have been used to strengthen the agricultural sector & invigorate the rural eco for the long term benefit of farmers . what is ur take on issue???
With the advent of liberalization , privatization , globalization in indian economic policy, its geometry has assumed new dimension. The pyramid level of income distribution between rich , middle & poor class has been transformed into an octahedral level of income with the thick middle part occupied by middle class. aspiring to become rich .But even then a considerable amount of people lie in the poor category.And if India has to transform itself it has to drift its lower class towards development.
But does subsidizing food & announcing a loan waiver package helps? It does nothing more than making them reliable on govt. UPA govt's NREGA scheme does not seem to see the light of the day with corrupt panchayat using it for their family benefit.Morever Rs 60,000 Cr , which govt announced as a loan waiver package , add as an additional burden for regular tax payers .Govt. could have spent this figure in a channelized direction.
Concepts like financial inclusion should have been brought into picture.Various MFI & banks should have been set up in villages. Loan rates for agricultural implements should be lowered. NGO's should keep a vigil eye over the distribution of NREGA cards  & monitor the wage distribution. Govt. need to set up agricultural ombudsman where latest technology related to tools & fertilizers are given . ph level of soils should be checked for the betterment of crop.
Private players like ITC has taken initiative in some of these direction with its E choupal .E choupal is a place where farmers can know day to day prices of their product , sell them in the market & reap benefit of it. Entrepreneurship of large fields with big firms providing the agricultural expertise could be a lead initiative in this direction . Leveraging of Indian retail market to foreigners can also lead to growth of agriculture.
With the armoire of options under the govts. blankets , Govt. looks like 

India Vs South Africa

Myoho-mystic forces of nature was the inspirational theme of Kiran & Meghna in lakme fashion week's 2011 spring collection,but certainly it was South Africa feeling vibes of it.Sehwag set the mood with the boundary of the first ball.Hitting 3 four's of Morkel's fifth over,he, tormented the full blown balling attack like anything. Catches dropped , chances missed ,surreal but nice to watch him dodging Steyn's gun & thrashing morkel.Somebody remarked "it was just like tasting a hot curry where you enjoy the dish but certainly had a chance to scald your mouth ".Sachin too joined the band in the 8th over hitting morkel for 2 four's over covers.And then there was a reminiscient of Sachin's biggie of Andrew Caddick over deep backward square leg in 2003 world cup.Only difference was , this time victim was Dale Steyn.87 of 10 overs , highest score in powerplay world cup,2011.Graeme Smith biting his nails to get rid of the tyranny of this duo.Much to Smith ease Sehwag departed at 73 & India 143 /1.Gambhir came it at no. 2. who along with sachin consolidated Indian innings.Sachin drove a full length of morkel past deep cover to reach his 99th century in international cricket.With 267/1 in 39th over everything looked in cards-sachins 150,india's 350.But, one man has his own plan.Dale Steyn's fierce bowling dismantled the last 9 wickets for 29 runs.South Africa clawed back in the match.India setting over a total of 296.
Zaheer & co. made it difficult for Smith & amla giving 37 runs of 8 overs.Smith's wicket in the 9th over gave india a reason to cheer.But this was to last for small time.Amla along with kallis build a formidable partnership.Duminy & De villiers contributed handsomely with the bat.The ship set to sail away from indian coast but all was not over.2 quick run out brought some cheers for indian camps.Botha & Du Plessis quick fired to ensure a happy win for South Africa.But Zaheers bowling was a bolt in the blue.He made sure that India reels easy with 13 required of last 6 balls with 3 wickets in hand.Adernalin was pumping high.It was a battle of holding down your nerves between Ashish Nehra & Peiterson. Six & four of 1st two balls & the South African ship sailed away from the Indian coast.
Alas! one more brilliant performance in vain,billions heart crushed.

AIADMK's two leaves set to hide the rising sun

The morning sky is clear .The pitch seems flat & good to bat on.And umpires have signalled the match to start.In the cricket of tamil nadu's politics 14 parties coalition of AIADMK takes on the defending champion DMK on april 13 when the country goes to the polls. AIADMK captioned by Jayalalitha along with the charm of actor Vijaykanth and shrewdness of left will face the veteran karunanidhi.
karunananidhi's DMK seems impussiant due to suspension of its ace player A Raja and CBI probing its house members over their alleged involvement in Rs 1.76 lac crore 2g spectrum.While for Jayalalitha DMK's chicken came home to roost.Jayalalitha ,who was charged with corruption in 1996 & had never come to power since then ,is campaigning hard against the govt. malpractises to oust them out of power.AIADMK by supporting actors like Karthick & sarath kumar & alliancing along with Vaiko's MDMK,DMDK,left and 10 other parties wants to left no stone unturned in its poll preparation.
DMK with motives glued to allure rural votes- last year distributed around 1 lac tv sets for free & gave free rice to farmers.Party is eying on similar reforms pre election to turn game for them.The real test for DMK will be to please urban votes with issues like price rise,corruptions,inflation ,scams,mismanagement of govt. funds rankling the state.
The scenario looks like an imbroglio and it is becoming interesting as the days are closing nearby.Something can be assured only after election commision had circles all the i and cut all the t and declares the result.
