5 things about IPL

12 05 2008

IPL fever has caught everyone around including me. I have been sneezing 20-20 times a day. And there is no royal knight who can charge this super king size daredevil virus out this Indian’s body.

Any ways the reason behind this post is, I got tagged by PG … thanks for the tag mate …

So, 5 things about IPL

1.

The three most costly teams, viz. Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers and Hyderabad Deccan Failed to leave a mark. And the teams like Rajasthan Royals, Kings 11 Punjab and Kolkata Knight Riders made their place in top 4. With Rajasthan Royals (a $67 million team) at the top and Royal Challengers (a $111.6 million team) at bottom, the system of Players auction is under a big question mark.

2.

Jaspal Bhatti mocked the cricketers’ auction and organized a sports ‘mandi’ at Chandigarh

I have been a huge fan of Mr. Bhatti’s Sarcasm since the time of ulta-pulta, and definitely not on the side of players’ auction. That’s why this news got a place in top five things about and around IPL.

3.

If some one asks me to put my money on a team … then that would definitely be Rajasthan Royals . A team without an “Icon Player” and was expected to be the weakest team in the IPL. with the batsman like yuasuf pathan, bowler like shane warne and all-rounder like shane watson, they proved every predictions wrong and emerged as the best team of the series.

4.

And two thumbs up for the organizers strategy of keeping night matches (so that office going guys can catch the live action, which can compensate the floodlights expenses) and organizing the match at teams’ home ground (attracts more janta, hence more money).

But 1 thumb down for mismanagements in the matches (like, floodlight problem in Kolkata, misbehavior with the cheerleaders etc) and for restricting match only to 8 stadiums (can look for other stadium in the same state at least).

5.

Then there is the cheerleader issue, and I must say that I m very pro to this cheerleading thing… although I think that this job should be given to Indians. Why feeding Americans when they are blaming us for their starvation … :D … Other than those 35 Cr. Middle class Indians who are eating away their grains there are 60 Cr. others too.

PS: - Last week was pretty busy visited many relatives.

PS: — Traveling in summers sucks.

PS: — Radio PJ :- Who is the gal, jiski laat khaa ker koi bhi matvaala ho jaata hai….

PS: —- Ans :- “preet”

PS: —– reason :- rmr the kailash kher song “preet ki lat mohe aisi laagi, ho gayi main matwali”

PS: —— Okie bbye for now…

PS: ——- Now you can stop banging your head with your key board :D.




The great Khali — er

4 05 2008

Other than IPL there’s is one more news from sports about which all the news-channels are very exited these day. Yeh! the Great khali’s vist to India.

Well, MTV was also celebrating his visit to India, in their own way …

THE KHALI ONE LINERS :

  • · Khali is so tall that once he tripped and hit moon with his head.
  • · Don’t ask Khali to be himself it’s the worst advice you can give him.
  • · Khali use binoculars to tie his shoes.
  • · When Khali want a 1 Rs coin he steps on a 50 paisa coin.
  • · Khali is so big he has a pin code for himself.
  • · When Khali was born he gave stretch mark to his hospital.
  • · Khali’s next generation would sure evolve into human beings.
  • · People jog around Khali to get their morning exercise.
  • · If Khali was proportional he would be 10 feet tall.

Q: - What did Khali say when walked into a crematorium?

A: - What’s cooking?

Q: - What does Khali say on seeing a menu of a restaurant?

A: - Okay

Q: - How does Khali put his best foot forward?

A: - By stepping on someone.

Q: - What did weight scale says when Khali steps on it?

A: - To be continued …

My additions …

· There has been no earthquake recorded since Khali’s last visit to India .

· Global warming is bullshit its Khali’s anger which is melting all those Ice.

· Moon is actually a comet not a satellite. It is revolving around earth waiting for khali to vanish.

· According to a survey there are 15% Indians who sleep empty stomach every night. This figure was 14% until Khali was born.

· Khali don’t believe in match fixing. Because he doesn’t believe in any word he can’t understand.

· To ease the communication problem, Khali got a small intercom setup on his body.

· Khali don’t run fast, because every time he does so, he ends up at the place he started.

· Khali doesn’t mind what I write, he can’t read actually.

PS: - Completed One month stay at Delhi.

PS: — PG’s tag is under processing.

PS: — Met a long lost friend yesterday after 14 years, had so much to talk, unfortunately meeting was short.

PS: —- less than 1 month left for me to become super busy from super vella.

PS: —– A good post by somani here, IIIT is moving a step further with every batch.

PS: —— OK BYE …

Are you religious?

24 04 2008

Am I religious …

to tell you the truth, I was religious, I was believer … I use to think that there is some force beyond human beings, a god whom we all address with different names.

But now my perspective is changed a bit now I m loosing my belief, on god and destiny. To me express my present belief in more technical terms …

Now I think every thing goes on in this world is a random process but with interdependent variables. Anyways this post is not about explaining that random process but about the religious beliefs.

Although I doubt the existence of god, I still go to temples with my family, read Ramayana and pray to god. Now why is that …

May be for my family, so they won’t think their son is an atheist or may be for the guruji so he wont think his favorite shishye is corrupted or for the aam janta so they wont think I m abnormal.

No, none of them … I think including me … most of us are religious to live a tension free life. Because deep inside every one has this belief that with all the pooja path their misfortunes wont last longer. And as I said every thing goes on in this word is a random process, things and conditions keeps on changing. Some day things get better.

It’s like the way we learn cycling, it’s our belief that some one is supporting us from back to save us from falling make us learn riding bicycle.

PS: - Delhi is 42 degree Celsius these days… now I understand why delhi gals are smoking hot.

PS: — I was hoping much much better performance from IPL (Deccan chargers) Hyderabad team after kickass ICL (Hyderabad Heroes).

PS: — All those people who think having cheer leader in cricket matches is lame can go and start watching aastha channel.

PS: —- Another little birdie told me that MTV Rodies lost half of its viewers after kicking shambhavi out.

PS: —– Trip to Kanpur was great, attended a marriage ceremony after 4 years, now I know what is called dancing all night.

PS: —— It is almost impossible to find a proper road in Kanpur, and I guess it is the only place where you’ll find a world class mall in the middle of most underdeveloped region of city.

PS: ——- About meet an old friend after almost 16 years … very exited.

PS: ——– And finally I have one thing less to think bout before I sleep.

PS: ——— Adios amigos




change

6 04 2008

Its been 4 days since i left, and I had started missing “THE PLACE” already.

Miss all those late nite maggies.

Miss uninterrupted infinite long countless and baseless BC sessions.

Miss the Gachibowli stadium garden, where every one reveled their untold truth.

Miss the Canteen, coffee shop and OBH evening samose vaala, be quieted the shouting hungry stomach.

and Miss certain miss whom i missed.

Once again want to see SICA taunting “Andhra ki kudiyan” ,

Handa flaunting about “soon to be” his hulky body,

Chauhan saying “kyuki hum chauhan hai”,

harry arguing/warring with hobbit and sica reconsidering his decision of living with them.

Keser watching anime with full dedication and burning his lungs with more.

Akash mixing random songs on his DJing Software and grinning at my frowning face.

and Bappe just being him.

Well some one said “change is the law of nature”

and then some one said “one who adapt to the change survives”

So I guess learning process has not ended …
PS: - Batch is on batch trip.

PS: — sleeping - eating - sleeping -eating - sleeping. yeh, this is my time table.

PS: — Nothing is better than home food.

PS: —- how much calories can one loose by stretching hands and legs, yawing ,clicking keys and exercising eyes

PS: —– Did is mentioned that home food rocks …

PS: —— why every channel is so sucking boring these days…

PS: ——- In case u didn’t notice … home food rocks ….

PS: ——– To ORB… plz help me … i m not able to run Half life ep - 1 on my brand nu laptop.

PS: ——— Adios amigos :)




F.E.A.R

29 03 2008

Its been long since I have posted any thing here, too busy
or too lazy or too senti or just whateva :D.

 

Anyway, want to thank Karan for the tag,

 

Finally I got time to do it, so here it goes …

 

My greatest fear …

 

Actually it’s pretty baffling question to answer. I wasn’t
able to arrive at one acme of all. So, thought of writing top three fears, in
no particular order.

 

  1. Fear
    of messing things up
    : - I have always had this fear, every time I’ve
    been given a responsibility. That’s why usually avoid taking a decision.

 

 

  1. Fear
    of growing up
    : - Seriously don’t want to grow up. Unfortunately it’s
    some thing unavoidable. I know soon I’ll be like every grown up.

 

Day- office problems Night- Home problems

 

And then won’t be able to escape by
telling myself, “bade log samhal lenge

 

 

  1. Fear
    of getting rejected
    : - Little personal to share.

 

 

  1. Fear
    of being alone
    : - As every one … doesn’t want to loose people I care
    for. I always wish I die first …

 

 

 

Well, this is all I can think of … there might be few more …
but mind is too preoccupied.

 

I tag …

 

Sica, Sultan of samarkand, Badri, Daka, Jags, Raguram, Ranjai, Chauhan, Bajpai

 

Really want to know what you guys fear from ….

 

PS: - Wrote last exam of my B-tech yesterday.

PS: — 15ys of schooling 4yrs of B-tech, all clean record …
is clean no more.

PS: — If u haven’t seen it till now then do check this viral video, superbly hilarious.

PS: —- obviously the Song of the day :- o-zone - Dragostea din tei .

PS: —– You can download the song from here.

PS: —— And do check ORB’s Video collection … its awesome.

PS: ——- Signing off … talli hoo …

Strange Incident

28 02 2008

Well, I was at the subway yesterday, enjoying “sub of the day”. And there were two school couples sitting at the table next to mine, chit chatting. There were 4 trays lying on their table, with all the leftover on it. After they were finished they got up and left.

 

After few seconds, entered a bit bulky white woman (i.e a non-indian). For all those who have not been to the Hi-tech City subway, it’s quit small place with only three tables there to sit at.

 

Anyways, to my surprise this white woman took all the four trays left by brown people, emptied them in the garbage collector and kept them on the tray panel. Then she occupied the place.

 

 

And I was left thinking … are we really modernizing?

 

 

 

(And also how good it would be, if our college will have a Subway: D)
