death of NDA can bring BJP back
death of NDA can bring BJP back…I mean it
Sudheendra Kulkarni says, “Sonia Gandhi & Rahul made an essentially weak PM like Dr Manmohan Singh look strong by backing him solidly…the BJP & the Sangh Parivaar made a strong leader like L K Advani whose contribution to the growth of the party is enormous, look weak, helpless and not fully in command..” How true he is…
In fact, it has been known more as a Vajpayee Party or the Sangh Parivaar, that has weakened the image of BJP. There is no doubt that Honorable Vajpayeejee was incredibly upright when leading the Party & the Coalition. But who’s after him? Did he ever realize or failed outright in giving the BJP his successor, this does put a question mark over his leadership. L K Advani…He is a powerful persona (even heftier than any Gandhi) in backing someone but not standing upfront. Rajnath Singh…I wish he discovers himself soon. Sangh Parivaar… no comments…all I can say is their mouth stinks.
Yes, Lack of upright leaders is one of those many reasons of its hapless performance in last two elections. The actual defeat of BJP, not The Elections, it is the failure in sprucing up its own image. Restlessness to get the position, running behind Coalitions, hatredness & babbling futile arguments…all they did was they made an ass of themselves. There was no Lotus they could sell. They showed up as if they are beating around the bush, there was hardly any clarity in their plans & hardly any confidence in their speeches…huh! It did stink like shit. History witnesses how the last decade was messed up by some crazy bastards’ misery & restiveness for power/position. Please don’t let it repeat again.
(Similar kinda story was seen for one more admirable party too & that’s Siva Sena. Bal Thakrey, for some reason, failed to handover the position to the right man & we all know the result. India is going to see two more similar stories if they fail to give birth to the right child…One is Narendra Modi Govt & Lalu Prasad Yadav the other)
Congress, as much as I hate them, I must appreciate the way they have built themselves in all these years. They never failed to tell a convincing story to people. If it was anything they flagged up then it was only about Congress & Gandhi family. There can’t be two lions in a forest; perhaps the Congress-Gandhi family had realized it long time ago. There can be only one king on the top & the successor belongs to the same family. Look at history no one from Gandhi family have ever sat on the top with a coalition government. In the last UPA rule, it seemed that Advani’s revolt stopped Sonia Gandhi taking the position, rather I am sure, and she saved her family image not accepting the Shared position. That is the dignity of a ruler.
If it has to be anything then that’s One Man Rule/ One Family Rule & believe me that is what works in India.
Anyway guys, the game is over for this election. But there is still a hope for the next time. you could be back with a larger force. With however little knowledge I have about politics, I think the necessary steps for you now would be:
1. Finding out the reasons – where did you go wrong and how could you overcome the defeat & who would be the bunch of right people for the party who could turn the world. May be an extensive Market Research could help you.
2. Instead of playing diplomatic games, Advani should step out from as a party chief, its time for him to find & promote a right successor & backing him with full strength.
3. Party workers: your resignations & your Public interviews, confessions…all that shit sound like you were the only right asshole over there who just woke up & narrating about all the fucking nightmares you had…Honestly, It will be of no help for the party. Please help that old man getting out of this shit & apply your intelligence on building the party’s future.
& most importantly,
4. Time for NDA to die: You see when you were busy finding alliances, congress was sowing its own seeds. It’s high time now not to run after those shity alliances. You trusted TDP, you trusted BJD…what came out? They turned out be the lousy bastards who couldn’t even stand with when you were in difficulty rather they did hit you where it hurts the most. They just showed up their fucking ass & wanted you to lick it. You should have left them after 2004 election itself. Anyway It’s not too late, fuck it now. fuck all the bloody alliances you had. just fuck it & dig up the Ponds everywhere so as to let the LOTUS blossom. I am sure this beautiful flower would be the centre of attraction in the next election. All I say is, its not NDA its the – BJP is the word that should be flagged up.
though i have a different dream…I wish, I could gather all my guts & courage to go back to my place in next two-three years & join politics… BJP Zindabad!
paisaaa…..only paisaaa
What a fantastic lyrics! Thanks a ton Neelesh Mishra, the lyricist.. It’s been a year the album got released. But stupid me, I saw it now.
Ok! Enough of Confessions. Let’s pay attention to the Lyrics.
There are three stanzas in this song. First stanza narrates the dream the man has got. Second one explains the execution of dream & the third one……..Objective achieved…The One is on Cloud9. The confidence, the attitude, the determination is what flashes out on each part of the song.
1. Hey suno na…Dil keh raha hai
Lalach badi kubsoorat bala hai
aaye aye dekho na…Kiski duwa hai
Aasman chule jo uska Khuda hai
Roj naya khwaab dede zindagi
Aise hasin sazza de
Jannat jahaan..aaa… Jannat yahan..
Jannat jahaan… Jannat yahaan..
2. Hey suno na…Duniya ka kya hai
Hum ne jo chaha, Hum ne woh kiya hai
Aye dehko na…Jadu yeh kya hai
Pathar ko chu ke mein ne sona kiya hai
Roj naya khwaab dede zindagi
Aise hasin sazza de
Jannat jahaan..aaa… Jannat yahan..
Jannat jahaan… Jannat yahaan..
Paisa jeene ki dua
Paisa marne ka sabab
Paisa ka jadoo ajab
Roj naya khwaab dede zindagi
Aise hasin sazza de
Jannat jahaan… Jannat yahan..
Jannat jahaan… Jannat yahaan..
3. Aye suno na…Aankho mein kya hai
Dil ne jo chaha dil ko sab mil gaya hai
aye!
Wow! what a line.. “Paisa jeene ki dua…Paisa marne ka sabab…Paisa ka jadoo ajab”. I liked it so much.
I must admit I have always been a slave of the Dream of sitting on a heap of money and having the One Power. Yeah, the dream has also been a motivation for me to go ahead.
Hell! The day is not far, I’ll have a Kingdom & will have a huge heap of money as my thrown.
Don’t know…It was a 9/11 or the biggest terror attack ever,
Don’t know …who got benefited.. Media or The terrorists,
But I had another holiday.
Don’t know…It was a fear-provoking cry or an irksome symphony,
Don’t know…it was a misfortune for few or blessing for many,
But the dramatic presentation of News did entertain me.
Don’t know…what made me to mail & Sms my pretentious concerns
Don’t know…Gossips & useless discussions certified my smartass or not,
But I did enjoy doing that
Don’t know…what did I demand for-Peace or a war with Pakistan
Don’t know…who did I question to– the System or to myself
But I am happy, I am safe from all side
Don’t know…it was a Wednesday or a Thursday,
Don’t know…It was a black or a bright day,
But I Thank god, it wasn’t a dry day
“D” wish:RGV & Anurag Kashyap make a movie of it & but unique of its kind…I know, I am gonna enjoy the movie
Who died, who suffered, who cried….fuck’em all..let’s get back to work
paint nothing…
One fine spring evening, sitting in my college library, I gathered myself to read “Detective Marketing”. The weather was a bit cold and the smooth breeze through windows was making the ambience very pleasant. I continued my reading for about one hour. It was a damn good book, and very thought provoking too. So I felt bit tired and wanted to relax. I needed a little change; I wanted to think about something else. A stream of thoughts went through my mind: my absurd dreams (unfulfilled and otherwise), my religion, my country, movies made on history of Hindustan and Hinduism and on and on. Of a sudden a dreadful cry struck on my ears. It was a cry of those helpless people which I had seen in those movies and the frightful stories of the British and Mughal times. It echoed in my mind and created an inharmonious effect. The terrible pictures flashed in front of my eyes. My entire body and mind was filled with aggression. Suddenly I cried out in despair, “My religion is the greatest religion, my country is the noblest country in the world. I am proud to be a Hindu and I am proud to be a Hindustani. God will never have mercy on you-you bastards!”
Not even had a second passed that I heard someone laughing at me. His eyes were filled with pity for me. I stared at him in anger. He was laughing hysterically. I couldn’t make out what was so funny. I was about to shout at him, he smiled at me and said, “Hey! You said something quite interesting. I can see your affection towards for your country and religion. But could you please reason out your feelings for your religion and country?”
I never expected the question at that moment; I simply went blank. A few seconds later I gained consciousness. I fumbled and blurted, “We… we we….are known for our resistance. We are kind hearted. We are real human beings. Though the British and Islamic Kings ruled us for centuries, tortured, humiliated, exploited us for centuries, we have always walked in the path of non-violence and and and ….”
He suddenly sprang up to his feet and roared:
“and you bastards are cowards. You have always been in the habit of accepting slavery and you are the bloody half-wits the world has given birth to.”
I was staring at him like a fool, mouth wide open. He continued,
“You people have always cried that they ruled you, tortured you, exploited you, humiliated you etc etc. If you look at the other side, you will realize that it was you who let them do this to you. How could one rule over you, till you allow yourself to be their slave? How could one torture you, if you didn’t permit them to? How could one exploit you, till you let yourself being used? All the good things were made and built in Hindustan by these rulers and good things came out after churning a lot of blood, sweat and tears. Whatever you have and are proud of, were their initiation and underpinning. Instead of appreciating them, you are looking at their flaws?”
“What bulshit”..I moved my face to other side,
He sat closely to me and continued, “List out all the things you have done for yourself, can you?? Traditions, some blind beliefs…pieces like shit? Even the soul of your religion got purified during the time of the British and up to some extent by them only. The truth is that, you never loved your own people and God. You did not spare your God himself. You divided Him into 33 crore entities and in the name of those very entities you divided your people. Sigh…Ramayan, Mahabharat, the Bhagwat Geeta…these are your holy books, right? Has anyone realized what do those books really have to say? Have you ever realized the nicest things written in those books? Tell me, how many times you have seen those books? Do you have any understanding of your own culture? Do you respect your own culture in the true sense? The answer is a simple “NO”. And you imbeciles claim you are the best in the world, you are kind hearted…Hell! What the hell are you going to do with your kindheartedness? I say you are cowards. You could never be masters. You always preferred to be a slave, always took the easy way out.”
My mind and body were filled with shame. I realized what he had said. But who was he? I tried to touch him. But I couldn’t. At last I understood and realized, the man who showed me the dark and hard face of truth was non-other than my own shadow, my own soul. I am thankful to my inner self for making me see the world as it is and not as I see it.
You might not agree with my views on politics and religion. But the point I am trying to make here is “to see the world as it is and being unbiased, as biasness will always restrict our thoughts and imagination”.
Godfather
I have just finished reading the book “The Godfather”. Don’t worry, I am not going to narrate the story or going to tell you about the greatness of this book. I believe we all know about “The Godfather”. The essence of this post is, well, it may seem a little weird – “DON GANDHI OR MAHATMA CORLEONE???” Nope, I am not going to criticize Mr M. K. Gandhi, no, that is not my purpose, at least right now.
As soon as I finished the book I started analysing the traits, character and the leadership qualities of Mr. Vito Andolini Corleone, whom we know as The Godfather. On of a sudden, a thought popped up in my mind which I have penned down here. It was a comparison of Mr. Corleone with Mr. Gandhi, father of our nation.
(i) Both of them were those rarities; who had refused to accept the rule of the organized society, men who refused to the dominion of other men. There was no force, no mortal man who could bend them their wills unless they wished it. They both were men who guarded their free will with wiles and murder. Their wills could be subverted only by death or the utmost reasonableness.
(ii) Both of them had one goal which arose from contempt for any authority and dictatorship, hatred for any man who exploited the law of silence. Mr. Corleone sprang upto fight against the rules that had crushed the country and its people for centuries. So as Mr. Gandhi did against the British rulers. Both of them chose peaceful ways, but there were loss of countless human lives, some way or the other, which unwantingly both of the leaders had to bear.
(iii) Both of them served the purpose of their own life peacefully. They ruled as informal leaders over millions and billions. Both of them were powerful speakers. Words were the only weapon they were armed with. Their speeches were as subtle and discreet as they could be.
(iv) Mr. Gandhi was a freedom fighter for our nation who worshiped non-violence to maintain a peaceful operation towards the goal. Mr. Corleone, the most powerful underworld mafia at his time handled all his operations and was able to maintain peace in underworld so that the common man lived in peace. Both of them never let anyone exploit the innocent.
(v) Rules of dominant society condemned them to a life not suitable to a man like them. They were the men of extraordinary force and character. There were hurdles, there were conflicts, but nothing could stop them.
There are no difference between these two rebels. But we see both in different perspectives, stamped in two different designations – Mr. Corleone as DON and Mr. Gandhi as Mahatma. So can I conclude that there is no difference between the words DON and MAHATMA against all dictionaries?
So Don Gandhi or Mahatma Corleone???
Perhaps both were Godfathers to many…
Take a ride in this boat
I believe the title and the picture gives you an idea of the theme of this post..so let me get you straight to the topic. Yeah its bit long, But it is very necessary for you to read. My roommate Pranshu always says “There are so many simple things around us, But its need a genius to understand their simplicity”. So here are some simple things. Am I talking to a genius?
Movie…
Don’t you think movies like No Smoking, Hazaron Khwaishen Aishi, 1971, Dor, Water, Iqbal, Pather Panchali etc should not be made in India. Anurag Kahyap, Amrit Sagar, Satyajit Ray, Sudhir Mishra, Deepa Mehta etc should be stopped from making movies. These are the real fools, aren’t they?
Why don’t they understand that there is no audience to appreciate their work, in India(yeah, the audience which actually has the intelligence to understand movies). Why don’t they understand that People like “NAUTANKI” here.
Let me give you an example. Which movie has become blockbuster hit in this year…’Om Shanti Om’. If you haven’t watched the movie, please go and watch. I can assure you, You won’t find a Nautanki bigger than this. Bloody hell!! You will be pissed off. For God’s sake, please understand filmmakers like Farah Khan, David Dhawan are repeatedly questioning the intelligence of the audience. But there is no point in blaming them. It is you for whom they are making movies. What happened to your taste? I have mentioned the names of some movies. Please watch those once and try to understand the great efforts made behind those. See the script, the story line, the acting, the direction, the background colour, the theme…I won’t be amazed, if you say “This movie is GREAT” after watching those.
Music….
Haahahaha…I have heard most of the people claiming they have an amazing taste in Indian music. But what and whom do they listen to… (Have a good Laugh!) They listen to Himesh Reshamiya, Sonu Nigam and and (please hold your laughter for a moment)-& they listen to remixes. And when they listen to oldies they feel like taking a nap. Fuck You; If you don’t have the right taste of Music, just stay away from it.
I know, I have become very harsh but I am really amazed at the kind of taste of music, people have in our country. If you really like music, see the involvement of the singe in the feel of the song , the lyrics, the instruments played…Here are some important names related to indian music industry..Legendry Singers- Kishore Kumar, Mohd Rafi, Lata Mangeskar, Kumar Sanu, Suresh wadekar, KK, Kavita Krishnamurty, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Ghulam Ali, Jagjit Singh, Pankaj Udash, Roop Kumar Rathod, Rabbi Shergill…..Lyricists: Gulzar, Prasoon Joshi -Listen to E.g. Rang De Basanti, Taare Zameen Par, No Smoking, Guru(Mayya mayya)
Believe me all the names I have mentioned right above are pearls of Indian Music, pearls which are invaluable. Their names should be flagged above all things.
Isn’t it?
Indian music and culture are the only things upon which an Indian can proud of. Because it is our own creation. I just want you to help these people keeping that creation alive. By encouraging them. Know their greatness.
I became very depressed when i read an article some days before- It was an interview of KK. It says, he had to walk with the recent trendz of remixes. He was recognized by people for the song “AJAB Si of Om shanti Om” (Believe me it was the worst among the best songs he has sung). ….More over, Some one has written a comment to that article even (who is this KK, is he Kailash Kher?). People even don’t know him. Just Listen to “Tadap Tadap of Hum Dil de Chuke Sanam, Title song of Deewangee, Aashayen of Iqbal, Alvida of Metro, Tu hi meri sab hai of Gangstar and many more are there and do let me know if I am wrong.
The same thing happens with movies too. Look at Aamir Khan. He chooses movies as per the script. He refused 35 crores to ADLABS only because they didnt have a script. Movie makers also gradually stopped making movies of good scripts. only because people don’t like those. I ask “whtz happening to our educated mass. Wht do you actually look for in movies and music? What is the basis of your selection? is it only entertainment and nothing else???
