Cricket of my life ...

“Cricket is our Religion and Sachin is our GOD” must have been chanted N number of times by many of us and Of course some might replace Sachin with DADA (And in the same manner with CAPS lock on), but all these things shows the amalgamation of the game in our life …what if the life of cricket turns around to be Cricket of life?..
It all started with the TOSS which is the beginning of the game and it resulted “HEAD”(As all boys consider they have one ;-) ) and I was born, If it would have been tail it has to be a girl or vice versa (obverse and reverse side of life not the coin)
In our gully cricket if someone wins the toss he decides to bat first as it is considered to be luxurious and u have a chance to hit the ball first, In the same way It was my turn to bat first in the game of life and to be in luxury. In initial overs I hit many sixes and fours to the Food Bowl given by my mom and to the various things in our house, I was also saved from bad shots too cause of fielding restrictions which was imposed due to extra love and affection given to me by my Grand Maa.

Then came the next spell of my inning filled with various teacher and school time bowlers, many of them were scary and always fired bouncers on me but I somehow managed to get some quick singles, doubles and few boundaries frm that; During my net practice I was always warned about the spinners whose spell was about to come during the next phase of my life,Ball thrown by spinners are quite tempting and u always want to play stokes and hit a sixer on those ball. I think you must have guessed the spinners …. Yes the obverse side of life… this time I’ll call boys the reverse one

For few overs I controlled myself from making any mistake but like any other batsman knowingly got caught in the web and tried to loft the ball on my front foot …lucky me.. although not a boundary but jst managed not to be caught on that stoke ..People who succeeded reading the minds of spinners managed to score well but it’s a difficult task as u never know when a Googly or a doosra may flung the bells .The last spell of overs were from career and if u play them well people say ur chances of succeeding in the game of life are much more .As all the other spectators in front of TV sets each and every spectators in ur life cycle is more interested in viewing the last few overs and to see how u tackle them and have their own sets of views and suggestion to play without being on the ground ..

Now it was my turn to ball and my task is to defend my score which is my moral assets, my knowledge and my values when talking in terms of life; First few overs were jumbled with various stokes and wickets as sometimes I was badly thrashed by Big experienced world and sometimes I delivered well, sometimes I bowled wide and sometimes it was Good length.


The game is still on… I am not sure was my score well enough to be defended ?
I am not sure whether I am gonna win this battle... neither I am bothered bout that
but jst want my team mates to say …….”I Played well”

Branding recession ….


So the economy is in the crapper. People are losing their jobs. Huge financial corporations are teetering on collapse…. Inflation might turn negative this year………all these information might have entered ur brain..and ur veins through all sort senses you have..now u can even smell recession around u…..
Your bike ride with ur head phone on and playing ur fav radio station is no more the same ….it has replaced ur fav bollywood number with recession Ads(Yes Its important to call them ADS)
This time the election manifesto of various political party is not “Roti , Kapda Makaan “ but a sword that will cut down the webs woven by mortgage monster …
Now ur DISTANT-NEIGHBOR is more bothered about ur job security rather than ur pay package
IST of your office clock has suddenly changed to the System time…
And now Nature has changed its rules …It took millions years for man to evolve from its monkey’s breed but it took jst few months for ur boss to became a TIGER.
The street light pillar no more contains a Jewelry shop ads… it has been replaced by some classes which provide therapy to patients hit by recession flu.
New topic “RECESSION” will now be introduced in all sorts of curriculum and at every level of ur education ladder ….a KG kid will be asked to spell “Recession” …a primary standard kid will be asked to calculate loss occurred to the shopkeeper cause of recession ..Middle standard child will be asked to write an essay on recession …high level students will be asked to play with permutation and combination..on recession based parameters…and for marketing and finance guys its now the time to bell a Lion hungry from many days ……..not just a CAT ….

Had that level of publicity or awareness been given to any of the social Issue…. Recession might have smacked to the darker side of life not the brighter one …..

Mein na Hindu na Musalman ……

Mein na hindu na muslaman ….mera upar wala ek hain …. 

Mein prathana karu ya namaz par mera irada neek hain … 

Kya fark hain mujhmein aur auroon mein …..sirf hamare naam aneek hain … 

Fiza wahi Ghata wahi ...neer nabh ehsaas wahi 

Chot lagne par mujhe bhi dard hota hain …aurroon ko bhi…. 

Choti choti bataon par mujhe bhi khushi hoti hain auroon ko bhi ….Fir kyuu hamare dharm annek hain …..

 Hey uper wale …tune aankh kan naak sab ek diya …soch kyu nahi…

 Kyu  tune dharm jati …samaj ..ke bandhan banaye ..aaj bhi mein hairan hun ….teri nazar mein to sab ek hain …..Aur yadi tum hi ek nahi alag alag ho .. …to.kya tumhare vicharo mein bhi hamare jaise matbhed hain …… 

Tujhe sab mante hain ….tere bataye raste par sab chalte hain …lekin tune kabhi ye nahi kaha ..ki tu hindu ya musalman …..fir kyu ham aaise raste par chal pade hain ……Ya to tera bas nahi iss jahan par……… ya insaan ne tujhe galat samajh liya …… 

Kyu ham samaj gaon kasba ….jati ..dharm par aakar ruk jate hain …kyu ham sab iska istmall apne bhale ke liye karte hain ….jo raaj kar raha hain iss dharti par ..vohi in sab par khelta hain ……kya tune bhi apna dimaag hamari tarah band kar liya ..hain …aur nahi …to kya chahte ho iss duniya se …..…..aaj jab mein iss dharti ko dekhta hun to mujhe bahut dukh hota hain …aur mein yadi tera banaya prani hun to tujhe bhi hota hoga  ..kya tu bhi hamari tarah bebas aur bechara hain …..

aur yadi  nahi  to tujh mein astha banaye rakhne wale logon ko kuch to jawab dena hoga..ya toh hame itni samajhdari do ki ham ..dharm ..jati samaj ke upper uth kar soch paye ..

ya toh apna naam hamare dimaag se mita do ……

ya toh tumhare naam par jo insaniyaat ko mita rahe hain unhe mita do ….. 

Aur yadi aaisa sochne mein meri koi khata hain …to beshaq ….mujhe saza do…. 


I am not an atheist …I am not a cynic but I do believe in one almighty that is within me ..he may be  Bhagvan ..Allah . or GOD but he is one ….and he will treat me in the way I want him to ….

Its not just Delhi -6

Yadi log hi itne samjhdar hote …there was no need to make delhi-6
Its not the story of delhi it’s the story of “we the people” …..same thing was applicable to the critics of delhi-6 who underrated the movie… if they would have that level of understanding and thinking the story might be different …..

Rakesh om prakash mehra has thought and narrated our life and psychology very beautifully
We have grown up living the life ..or more better way to say is the “ART OF LIVING “
wat we follow is just living without art …cause meaning of ART is to apply our own thought and our own understanding …wat we don’t…. and live the life as organized and presented by the society …..delhi 6 is a great presentation of a psychological art ..it teaches us to think differently it teaches us that there is only one religion and an “Art of living “ that is humanity…. Religion and cast were discovered long back and principals were written long ago that world was completely different from todays world ….has any one of us had ever thought why religion or caste came into picture ……in that era no one
knew how to lead his entire life as man has jst evolved from the stone age so a group of certain intellect leader presented various do’s and don’t and that became our religion caste ..or way of living …. but none of them teaches us to be inhuman and if it teaches then … I guess u would not love to follow that practice

we consider GOD to be ideal and if he is ideal he knows every thing and u don’t require to please him with gold ….sweets …money rather he would like us to use that money for humanity and if not then what is the difference between GOD and a politician …he will never ask his own creation to do the mess to his own world …..

we are superstitious …and that is true ..a crow shit on ur head ..and we say It’s a good luck ..if some one stole ur shoes we say …Shani chala gaya …if some thing don’t happen as desired we say “Jo hota hain acche ke liye hota hain “ …I am still searching for the guy to whom all these thing happened as being told …these all thing were said and designed in order to make the victim a bit happy …but its good …as it teaches optimism and positive thinking…. so why not learn the main logic behind instead of following the alternative route …..and apply our own thought and principles instead of following the age old rituals and lead a life according to one religion which is “Humanity”

Samay ke taron me uljhe sab ..

Bhagam Bhag mein lage hain sab

Na jane sukoon milega kab

Jaane sab kahan bhag rahe hain ….Jiwan se kya aur kitna mang rahe hain ….

Samaaj ne ek rasta banaya ….uss raste pe sabko daudaya …

Mana himmat abhi nahi hain ….iss raste pe bhagna hi sahi hain …..

Raste ne ghar se door karaya , kambhakht kaha kahan ghiswaya…

Fir mila thoda sa pyaar …jab sath me aa gaye apne yaar…..

Yarron ne milkar sath nibhaya ..jeewan ki chot par malham lagaya ….

Lekin rasta abhi lamba tha ..par fir bhi na koi achambha tha ….

Socha tha milkar sath ladenge …miljul kar apni kamar kasenge….

Lekin samay ne apni takat diklayi ..bola mere aage tum sab kaha ho bhai …

sabko apni uljhano mein uljhaya ….samadhan se sabka dhyan bataya ….

Meri galti shayad yahi hain ..mein samjha iske piche samay kahi hain …

Kahi aaisa to nahi jisko mein hamsafar samjhta hun…. uske liye mein ek mussafir hun….

Kuch ko raste mein kai hamsafar mil jate hain… aur kuch ke rasta hi hamsafar ban jata hain …

Inn kuch mein mere hamsafar kaun hain mujhe shayad nahi pata …..

Kis hamsafar ka mein hamsafar hun mujhe shayad nahi pata….

Samay sahi ya ham sahi …mujhe shayad nahi pata ……

Lekin Rasta abhi baki hain ..chalna abhi baki hain ….

Whom to TRUST

When i was a child, i use to listen stories from my grandma about Ram Raj, the word that can be used to describe that era was "Ideal".
Now Come on !!! you must be kidding what is ideal ? this word no longer exist as the Ram Raj does,
Bingooo u are right ..when u say that
It is said that locks were not invented then as Human need leads to new inventions ..so that means people at that time donn require security ? Now this time a tiny creature in your mind wont allow you to TRUST me ....
"TRUST" a simple word that we use in a day to day life but we don't TRUST in wat the word TRUST means
A quick recap of your last time in local train or bus or crowded market, whenever you see a guy with a Dadhi or wearing a kurta payjama ...same old creature will crawl across your mind and make you think to every possible extent, forget about humans we don't even trust silently lying bags and lunch boxes now ...
Sting Operation in parliament ..bundles of notes hovering around ..whom to trust ?
Bomb blast in Bangalore and Ahmadabad, senior BJP leader pointing Govt for diverting attending... whom to trust ?

Even while reading a magnetic offer in the News paper we think that the prices were altered and then discounted

Some times it feels like the word "TRUST" will be told as a story to our grandchildren and I am not sure that I'll be able to explain its meaning by giving them some TRUSTING examples

"TRUST in GOD and do the right" must have been written by a hard believer,
i am not saying you to follow the first part of the phrase but at least follow later one so as to make others follow the former
