First of all a standing ovation to Aamir khan and the cast of taare zamin par for such a brilliant movie.
It is commendable that Aamir has made a film which is mostly non-commercial and which has touched the subject of parenting and children , which in view of the Gurgaon, Chennai and various other events where children have been involved as criminals and have attracted the limelight recently; in a beautiful and thought-provoking manner.
The movie is a reflection of today's society , with which people can connect easily, where a child can keep himself in the shoes of eshan, a mother in tisca's and a dad in the shoes of eshan's father.
Even though the mother of today is working or has an exposure/rendezvous in terms of a professional dimension(which was the target audience of the movie), she cannot detatch herself from her child, to analyze the problem/speciality. For her he is totally normal.So even though she is totally commited she channelizes his as well as her energies in the wrong direction, finally leading to her frustration. The child cannot tell her, sometimes he is under the wrong impression , as reconciled by Prasoon's eye-moistening lyrics ' main kuch na baloon , magar tu jaanti hai na ma'.He doesn't.
While the lady sitting next to me was rebuking eshan's dad, i could see in the character an Indian father who is aware of the competition and hence the misery which lies in the real world which is way beyond a child's dream world.He does not want his children to suffer as he had done, to slog during the day as he does, only to manage for his children a decent living.
He does not have much time left for himself , how can you expect him to analyze, distantly what his child actually needs ,where actually does the fault lie? Some may argue that can't a man find time for his children , who top his priority list? Well as was depicted in the film , a father always wants his child to be the winner....even if it means to be as hard as a coconut from outside. And sometimes , and more so often people forget what they had had in their minds when they had left their homes in the morning.And the only thing that they know, by what harshness this world has clutched them with, is that they want their children to be the best, they tell themselves this very thing time and again.
And as per the defination of a 'normal child' goes, as is presumed, understood and engraved in our minds,which we are made to believe that we are,though not just the normal, but the normal 'best',so that we can have a comfortable path ahead, the traditional, or the trendiest, or the highest paying , or the superficially attractive occupations are or sometimes have to be embraced,sometimes forcefully, from our childhood,and thus the genius that we were, in our own ways, in our childhood , be it in the field of instruments, even though we played awefully,or in the field of writing, even though our emotions were never understood by the literary meritoreous, or in the field of singing, even though we were cacaphonous, has to be killed.
And so we land up doing things that we did not want to. We just become programmed bots, who are competing for the best position, through their identical hardwares and softwares, which they have crammed and learnt.
And so the genius that the child was dies by his own hands.
The rising cases of teenage violence recently seen reflects the turmoil that takes place inside and which just finds an alternative vent.
The future seems dark, lest ,and hope, we find, in each home, teachers like Nikumbh, who teach children the art to live.

Distances
Distances grow.
You don't know how, or when, but they do.
You want something , in search of which you become so mad that you forget the rest , all that becomes your concern is the treasure that you want, you become a zombie.
But when you have found the treasure, in the return journey, you find yourself so alone , so lonely.
You know that you can reach out to your people , all you have to do is easily possible , but you don't.
You know you can steer the ship hard.....but you don't.
You feel like you have run out of steam.
You know that the horizon is near , you can see it , but you don't want to go any further.
You are the marine of the poem "the rime of the ancient mariner".
You kill the albatross with your very hands.
The albatross which had been your friend.
You repent for it.
And you suffer.
You know that you can repent....but you don't know.
Am I spreading the word?
Have i become the mariner?
PS: I know its cluttered and not clear......but i can't stop thinking.

And that's why they are gone
Ever wondered where have all the family planning ads that were aired on DD vanished?
Where have the autos with bold -"Hum Do Hamaare Do" gone?
For the past 1 and a half years I have been living in a village called Allahabad where from my point of view people wont mind having an intra family cricket match. But even here i cannot see none of these ads.
Well it all happened in the economics class. The point of India's manpower becoming an asset rather than a liability has lead to India's emergence as not only a political power but economic power as well. The teacher was babbling something about India now graduating from developing to a developed economy.She also but said that as we move forward we would be loosing our momentum.
Cheaper labor from other countries would outsource us.
In a few years to come we will have more jobs than labour.
And then was it that I announced in the class to have found out the real reason.....where they have gone.
The BBC (backbenchers) were caught by attention.
NO FAMILY PLANNING....I announced......NO....and they were shocked.....i like giving them some surprises......but they had not expected such in front of a teacher.
The teacher smirked...but she took me seriously for she was explaining people that i had foretold the future.....[:)]....she was saying that it will be true.
She said that some working couples not wanting children is a pointer.
Years to come and India will suffer only because it didn't have adequate population.
So people of India do I hereby request you to pledge your services to this country of yours...for which your forefathers had paid in blood.....and for the prosperity of which it is your duty to HAVE AT LEAST a cricket or a football or a hockey team(if you are overwhelmingly patriotic)....
but not a basketball one(remember to be patriotic).
I think the Allahabadi effect is catching on!!!
But then why are the contraciptives ad still there on DD???

10 hours of learning....
the governing principle in all cases where heat can be generated can be understood by the laws of thermodynamics.
I am not a geek......just think about all such situations and you will get an answer through those laws.
Unconditional love is the most difficult to give ......and in fact most difficult to get.
Newton governs us through his law of inertia. We know what we want , we know how to....but we do not. It is the initial inertia that determines the friction to be seen in the future.
The difference between theory and practical is meek but most of the people tend to forget that.
Never to wear a kurta for an interview and after that wonder what went wrong?
Sell your knowledge but not yourself.
Misunderstandings start due to lack of meaningful communication. Even your most innocent and true statement can be received in a wrong manner.
People do not want to trust the others.
The huge number of cases of depression that are coming up are a testimony to that.
Your actions and your looks make your first impression but that doesn't mean you compromise on YOU.
Good things happen to good people.
Happy things happen to happy people.
strong things happen to weak people.
Big things happen in smallest of ways.
Entropy(randomness) is the biggest problem in the universe.
You have to make a beginning.
It is difficult to ask for forgiveness but most of the times big things come with difficulty.
All the people in the world are not like you . and if you cannot transform your closest people as you want them....how can you transform the whole world?
The I factor in the world is growing..but iam not sure of that.....
The things i post is not shit.

Mess food
There have been huge references to the quality of mess food in general...it needs no elaboration( though i have heard that a few mess' have nice reputation of the food that they serve.)
People who have seen me in the past 2 years have noticed me swelling to 34" to now having a waist that can put any girl to shame.....and so it sometimes does to me as well....... i am 28" and i wonder what i will be left when i leave this mess after 3 years.
But today , 6th of october 2007(and that is ought to be remembered) , when i went to the mess for dinner with my roommate i was able to notice a change in the menu.(noticing a change is a big thing because firstly whatever they make , it is all the same....and secondly we have become so habitual of the procedure of our meals that it doesnt make any difference to us what we are served. the reason for the change was a hunger strike that we people performed .....that became a default as we "were" on hunger strike for a week or so.....the food had been that nice....
)
it is a thing of wonder how something that i took for granted at home has become so important that iam writing a blog on that......but it has...
so today after seeing 'gobhi ki sabzee and pourie' , when i filled my plate with 10 pouries my room mate was aghasted...
when i walked down the column where my batchmates were sitting they were wonder struck what had happened to me.....
and so was I...somewhat.....
and it was today.....for the first time in 1 year and 2 months and 16 days that i liked mess food for the first time....
it will feel nice to go to sleep on full stomach!!!

Apprehension
well before reading further just guess what this will be for.....apprehensions about my future?my life?my career???
well now i'll try to act a little 'geeky'....
the apprehension is about GOOGLE...
the company going private and growing into becoming the default page of most of the people...(iam referring to countries like spain --- 99%search traffic being through google....same being the case with India).
from being just a search engine to becoming a part of every netizen....in some way or the other, it is an integral part of our lives.
in the past year i have become so dependant on google that i have told my roommate several times that instead of having normal exams we should have open-google exams.
i use their talk servers.
i use their blogging facility.
i use their search facility.
i use their social-networking facility.
i use their vedio sharing facility.
i use their photo-sharing facility.
i use their google-earth.(and wonder what's google mars?????but google space sounds exciting).
i use google desktop.
i know a bit about google labs,google spreadsheets...............( i dont want to tax my memory to fill the entire page.)
the point i am making is that it's all over.
and the newest areas where it is coming is 'digital library' ,'entertainment','media','radio(now that was freaky)' and yes magazines...
iam not saying that currently its not like everybody's best friend....it helps us in some way or the other....always being around...
but then i have had a few arguments with my roommate on this.....
imagine one morning you get to know google has started to charge you for every search that you make.
for every packet you send through their servers...be it from talk,you-tube,vedios,earth etc etc.
(then how worse is MS????....it charges me for all the services it provides...sorry linux fans....and yes windows is much easier...the way google is).
i'll not talk about all that data that they store to streamline your search or all the cookies that they store(i recollect it is 21 years!!!).....because then they can be legally charged.
but yes imagine that you have to ask google to read some book.....???
as soon as i have to search something i type google(which is missplelt) and yet it magically opens google. and even if google charges money my fingers will involuntarily type GOOGLE.....
google works on the 80-20principle (and thats the most attractive thing about google)..........
but google has worked its magic so that their customers defy the same.

D C atastr O phe
I will never forget this exam......none of my batch mates would.....
it needs to be told ....it's how people become engineers....
It's 10:30 am.
DCO (digital communications) mid semester exam.
Students pray to God that the paper they get is the toughest in their life.
They all know it is got to be tough , the only thing they are sure of . They 'exactly ' do not know the syllabus, most of them didn't attend that class , the professor had announced it to be optional.
But they recollect that whatever they knew from hearsay about the course was not there in the course......that is what they had been told to them by the PROFESSOR.
There is Fourier transform which is sure to transform their grade cards , there is Fourier series , a series of lost battle , convolution which is CONVOLUTION , the name says it all.
The rest i am not sure of.
Mr. X enters the class.
Takes the answer sheet.
Writes his name on it at the invigilators table.
Demands his sheet to be signed.
Leaves.
No need to catch a glimpse at the paper.
Kewl.
Till the time everybody is contemplating the same they have the questions in front of them.
A wave of shock and awe settles down.
Every body is staring.
1....2.....3....4...5...10....minutes
i wondered if we were playing the 'who stares the longest game'.
every body stares at the topper.
He himself is staring at people.
One smiles, the other, total B.Tech smiles.
We congratulate each other......nobody is going to pass and hence relatively everybody is passing. Thank You PROFESSOR for making such a paper.
its 15 minutes.
5 guys get up.
The MSCLIS guys are wondering how the hell BTech people finish their paper so early.
10 guys get up.
20 minutes and nearly all the guys are out ....to the canteen or to their room to play Counter Strike.....wonder what they are countering and wonder what they are striking.
The only guys who stay back are enjoying the cool air of the air of the air conditioner.
X was smarter.....

LONER!!
Well it was only yesterday that i realized that people my age are lonely , they are experiencing the negative energy around them....they miss the company of like-minded people , and the people who care for them.
They know that being a loner will not help them, rather infect in them the parasite which will take control of them but they do not still venture into the right path and excuse themselves by holding onto the same reasons.
It is not that they do not have people around them.....they have people with whom they can roam around , impress the opposite sex , they can have food , they can smoke a ciggerate or drink a beer , spend most of their day , they can share a room for a year or 2 or 3,
yet they feel the loneliness , the void in the relationship.
They cannot reflect to the other person who they actually are , their inner self.
They will never talk 'I feel' or 'I believe'.........it always will be some other person!
Someone said that a person learns 25% with himself but 25% in his group.
Is it worth living a life of a loner? compromising on the 25% which could have been his....
had only he shun his fear of being cheated?
and the fear of being dumped in life......only again to survive in this world as a loner.

LOOSING!
Today again I lost one of the opportunities that I had wished would be mine.
Not that I did not make any effort towards it.....I made my best...yet I lost....some complications.
but this time the feeling is different....its not of loosing, its not like the void has taken over me, its not like i am in distress , its not like i don't know i have lost an opportunity,its 'not' like the previous times....its not like i am thinking about it...its different.
but i don't think that this feeling means in any sense that i did not want it.....but I am not having a funereal atmosphere around me.
is it that I have become accustomed to loose?
whatever the reason be.....I thank God for giving me the strength to face it.....with grace and honor.
Such instances in the past used to infuse into me bouts of depression.....may be I have overcome my weakness.....even though it meant one and a half years.
oh lord ! I wish you have made my past loss my greatest strength.
And no matter what now.........I know I will never become a failure.
AMEN!

suspense about suspension!!!!
i am saved from a suspension.....but the following is the reason why it came out in the first place!!!
Well i had seen this in the movies( which i rarely watch)...sometimes heard about it and sometimes gone through such an activity in the raw form.
but this time it was real and too real to be real.
my digital communication class scheduled for 3-5 was suspended. from 1:30 i had been watching CHAK DE INDIA and was left with some part of it when i had to go for the suspended class.
at 3:30 i reached my lab and decided to finish the movie......its too inspirational and patriotic(well that doesnt make me a sissy!).
it was 4:00 when i had reached the climax......or the start of my story.
2 guys were playing counter strike in the lab and they were given a headshot each by only 1 bullet but coming from 4 guns ....the captain of that clan being the DEAN academics DrUST.
and when the imbroglio was on i was relaxing totally like a nawab!!
i had the headphones on...my body was making a 45-50 degree angle....and when all the shooting down was being done i was enjoying the movie ,Shah Rukh Khan giving the inspirational talk to the girls....and it was hell inspiring.....
when someone patted my shoulder and inspired the hell of me!!!!
it was the dean.....for the first time i was seeing him face to face....and he was no better to look at than the characters that were there in the movie who had mesmerized me.....
he demanded my id card in front of my juniors who were pouring in our labs(the setup in IIITA is a ltl different but thats something different).
i was no state of mind to know what was going on...i was still in the hockey match....
i gave the id card and came out.....
and then was it that i realized what match i was to play now....
a suspension .....that was for sure....
after the juniors were settled the dean came out with his clan members and we 3(2 gamers+1 me...who didnt even know they were there in the lab) went to them thinking that we'll apologise , while the other two did so....more than doing that i was telling the dean what a nice movie CHAK DE INDIA was!!!!
he blasted us to meet him the other day...
meanwhile i came to my room and completed the movie.......its awesome....
its like.....i havent handled suspensions before :)

i gave the id card and came out.....
and then was it that i realized what match i was to play now....
a suspension .....that was for sure....
after the juniors were settled the dean came out with his clan members and we 3(2 gamers+1 me...who didnt even know they were there in the lab) went to them thinking that we'll apologise , while the other two did so....more than doing that i was telling the dean what a nice movie CHAK DE INDIA was!!!!
he blasted us to meet him the other day...
meanwhile i came to my room and completed the movie.......its awesome....
its like.....i havent handled suspensions before :)

The Types
Well during the thriller i had gone through, i realized 1 big thing...
people can be categorized into 3 types.
1) those who derive sadistic pleasure from your misery.
2) those who are indifferent
3) those who are genuinely concerned.
category 1 people are most of them , those who will term you as their friend,whom even you might have also thought of being as your friend , but it is only then that you realize that are they worth it?
BEWARE SUCH PEOPLE....they'll suck everything from you.
category 2 people are the ones who can be further be categorized in 2 categories:
a)not concerned with you : the safest people , they'll not harm you.
b)not concerned at all: more than you needing their help its they who need yours.they may term themselves as the coolest but they are the ones who do not want to shoulder any responsibilty.
category 3 people are the rarest...you might presume they may be extinct for some but then as a mature responsible earthling its our responsibilty to preserve them and through certain measures try to increase their population.

Suspension
well.....i might be suspended tomorrow....99% am sure...and by the morning it'll be 100...
but it feels little strange....
not like the "HEY ITS MY FIRST SUSPENSION WHOA!!!"
but well its like if the beginning is made......i do not give a damn if i get a second or a third....
i am giving a serious thought now to live life by my rules.....not how others want me to and may be thats my wake up call.....
at last....
or am i too hysterical???

The Economic's Class
My economics class is held every monday and tuesday morning and let me tell you that as usual, even though i love economics, i hate to attend the class moreso because i have to compromise on my sleep....
after straining my ears because now theyve got used to listen lovely and sweet voices of singers rather than the cacophony or the lectures....if it describes that decently...
but a description on that can come up later....the point iam making here is that after straining my ears to listen to what the teacher was babbling along the slide show it struck me!!!and it struck me deep....
if economics can be applied in real life.....
and the question which occupies the teenage mind most of the times....POPULARITY....could we apply economics to solve the biggest problem that might be faced by most of the people around the globe?
My teacher says that 90% of the times the ideal economics works.....and according to me thats a very nice percentage....so why not think a little more about it?
Say for boys!!!what is it that increases their demand amongst girls?(i'll be dealing with only the straight concepts...i know only that!)
As we all know that if the supply decreases then if the price remains constant the demand increases...so guys the best way to get your demand souring is to shoot every other guy that comes into your sight!!!but i dont think that is a viable idea!!.
yet again let us take that the supply is constant...ie the same number of guys around.....then at the same price how can you make increase your demand??
simple. to have such attributes that no other product in the market has.....and that is something of a very difficult task....isnt it?
so let us come to a very important question.....what determines the price of a product????the market forces of demand and supply.
supply.....i cannot control that.....may be a generation before me could have...but then i am not blaming them.....
demand....that is being controlled by the attributes i have and that is the underlying question......
lot to ponder about in that and so as not to strain my brain.....i'll leave that!
from that day on i have thought a lot on the subject of demand and supply which i have named love economics.........
more to come as comments......not from me....my eyes are paining!
