jana gana mana rann....

I was hearing to the song from the latest movie Rann. It is yet another controversy-prone-directional-venture of Ram Gopal Verma. The first time i heard the song, i was totally blown out. I was taken aback about why in the world he has choosen our National Anthem as his film's title song. The second time i heard i realised he included certain lyrics that reflect his movie's theme. So, obviously censor board rejected his innovation, thus causing this maverick director to put up a press meet and make us listen to his side of the story.

The whole movie promo thing has made the country to sit and think for a minute. For some, it made a sensible effort to reflect the present state of our democratic society and for some it made a silly adaptation of most respectable song of the nation. One blogger went ahead and stated " National Anthem is not to be remixed". But if you happened to hear the song clearly, it is just modified enough to depict the feel of the movie. Its just aint a remix!

To put in words of the song writer himself, Sarim Momin, said "While the National Anthem speaks about India and Victory, this song talks about the 'need' to achieve that victory by keeping India united today"

I personally dont think it is demeaning our national song. On contrary, it speaks about today's society standards and urges every indian to stand up in struggle to make a glorious India, which our anthem portrays. To all those narrow-minded people, please do not burn effigies as it is not a parody of national anthem. Nor it is a new national anthem for a new India. It is just a humble request from a small movie intended to bring awarness about media manipulated society.

Celebrity look-a-likes

Isn't it flattering if somebody stops by you just to say that you look like a particular celebrity. And what if this happens to you on a daily basis????I betcha, nobody gets bored of such uninvited adulation. So, one online site has come up with an idea to publish its viewers pictures, if they have experienced similar kind of response now and then in their lives. Below are some of those pictures that made me wonder how can god be so specific sometimes....Have a look....





Keira Knightly look-a-like



Everyone can guess this...



Yeah..definitely Kate Hudson



Fergie look-a-like(Hmmmm...)


Steve Carrell ofcourse..






My fav. Brenda Song ( yay me...two of them ;)



And finally Angie look-a-like....

Turning a New Leaf

The lava inside my heart
Fulminated as it were a volcano
Descending along the rough roads
It indurated through the course of time
I knew the barren land would feel nothing
But came the winds of joy n drops of hope
And there blossomed the daisies of compassion

Fun has lost its fun while having a ride with me
Dysphoric thoughts started disturbing my days
Life seemed to be “tristfully ever after”
I knew that “grey” exemplifies my situation
But never thought “green” could shine in my destination
Now this ray of hope struck the cord…
I wish it weren’t another enticing delusion!!!

New Life

I am sailing….
through the waters of life,
embracing every wave of trouble.
I am pure as driven snow,
holding a bunch of stars,
to spread my presence across….

Asleep at the wheel till now,
and lost all the vigor and glow.
Awake and aroused today
analysing every move I make.

I am starting where I stopped,
clearing the clutter that made me stall.
Not afraid of loosing anything
but strong enough to prepare for something.

Hurdles can’t hold me back.
Pain is the new teacher,
always telling me to fight back

Heedful, mindful and watchful i am
Started again to sail through the waters of life……

Someone special

Standing alone in the rain,
i was waiting for a ride.
I can see street lights,
spangled the night skyline.
I wished to get home early,
but caught up in the midst of nowhere.
was a fool to realize, the situation
was meant to meet some one
some one, so "speciale".

Struggling with my umbrella, I gave a look
at a figure dashing down the street.
as she approached me laying off
the distance between us,
she started to excite my aesthetic admiration.
Her charisma could have removed,
multitude of sins that i committed.
She stood in front of me and gave a look,
as if a riddle wrapped up in an enigma.
Pointing to her hand she was asking something,
her voice was echoing in my ears,
but my mind could not decipher the words.
Bewildered was she, in the water covered night,
but i could not help get hold of my senses
that were locked and surrendered at her feet.

Do not know what to do,
she started to move away.
This made my heart to miss the beat,
and my conscious to regain its life.
I went after her to offer help.
but the chase left me lone and dark roads
with no sight of her........

I could have made a virtue of necessity
but came back empty handed
Serendipity could have cursed me
for the bliss i just missed
i hope my immoderate fond for her
would rearrange for a time
where our paths cross again!!!!

Beauty

I guess god has glorified the nature,
when he bestowed beauty upon her.
Trees set a pleasant gayle,
as she arrived to this world.
Warmed up were the winter chills,
assimilating her smile into them.
Her presence is like a breeze,
set in faire weather beginneth at dusk.
She is divination of light,
even night glowed taking pride in her.
Days would slip emptily,
were you always in thought of her.
Her mystifying looks will leave you,
with a puzzled countenance.
She is a beautiful stop,
in your mind's peregrination.
Wake up, as she might be true,
if you care for her existence.

Everything looks just beautiful!

Your love has just made
every day a perfect one.
It made sliver droplets
fallover and delight my skin.

Your love has painted on me
with the strokes of enduring admiration.
Is it red, is it blue or is it yellow,
I cannot define as i am blinded
by your debonair glow.

I did not even spell out
my mouthful of wishes,
God has sent you for me
as an answer to my eternal glee.

I was bound to be a waterfall
and jump with jubliance to reach my love.
Today i am one, as i could see myself
lay in your mighty arms now.....
