I'm having a good time

One thing that can drive you crazy in the vibrant & bustling city like London is undoubtedly the WEATHER. They say that if you don’t like it then “Just wait for an hour”.  The depression these 4-5   months of winter can cause is beyond comprehension of the souls from tropicals. How it feels to be trapped in those 4 walls of the house or the office or the car, 24 hrs a day, was an unknown emotion to me. But you can’t deny that you start appreciating the rays of Sun, the sweat, the pleasure of walking, ditching your movie in a Cinema theatre for a day in lush green garden or shopping in a mall to playing with kids in a park. How badly you wait for such a weekend to arrive when you can just break free. Euphoric – was I when finally I was able to do all the above. I decided to unleash the trapped energy  and head out for some real good time singing along Queen’s- Don't stop me now (Yes I'm having a good time) I don't want to stop at all  What better colou...

Common Room का वो आखिरी कोना

रंग बिरंगी यादों में , मुझे है फिर से डूब जाना   Common room के उस आखिरी कोने में फिर से है धूम मचाना   Apollo से लेके अपोल्ली तक , खोका से लेके खोकी तक , हल्ला हर जगह हमने खूब मचाया   Mess में मगर जब बंटती थी रोटियां , आवाज़ में होता था कुछ  जोर ही  अलग   Chotu Bhaiya- चार रोटियां ले आना   बस इसी बुलंद आवाज़ को फिर से है पाना   Common room के उस आखिरी कोने में फिर से है धूम मचाना   गाने भी हमने खूब गाये , डांस भी किया तड़क भड़क   चार दीवारों की उस  GH में मगर दुनिया ही थी कुछ अलग   किस्से भी थे, कहानियां भी थी , Gossip  की कमी न कुछ   हर एक किस्से कहानी का बस फिर से युही लुत्फ़ उठाना   Common room के उस आखिरी कोने में फिर से है धूम मचाना   लोहरी से लेके  Xmas तक , त्यौहार भी हमने खूब मनाये   Special dinner के नाम पे पापा के पैसे उडाये हर इक बात पे बस Mezbaan पहुंच जाते थे   पैसों की कमी हो तो Nuway से काम चलते थे   गज़ब थे वो दिन , हर Occasion का बस यूँ ही Special Occa...

These are the few of my favourite things..

Globally sensational song “Why this Kolaveri di” instigated a debate amongst not only us - the lesser mortals, but deservedly-famous and Big-Boss-kinds famous people as well. One thing was sure that everybody was talking about it. One argument goes that is it has 99 % English which bridges the gap between North India & South India and other might say that it’s the catchy rhythm which wouldn’t have left anyone not take a notice of it. Not that I’m bothered about what any of the category of people have to say, all I know is I have been a fan of regional language songs from days as early as I can remember. If I like it, it wouldn’t matter if it was Hindi, regional or international. My argument was when Bollywood singers like Udit Narayan & Shreya Ghoshal or international singers like Akon, Kylie Minogue can sing in a language unknown to them then why can’t we as listeners enjoy the same.  This may be the argument just to put on papers but I know that deep inside my love for ...
