ISB campus blessed by Jo

Hello All!!

Back with one blockbuster event that shook our campus a couple of days back!!! The BIG JO was here and oh boy was it good fun or what!! :D
Well to begin with JO has put on some weight man!! (Sorry man JO but the truth remains the truth...you can blog in and let the people know how smart(er) I have become hahahahah LOL!!) In fact if all the pune waale log see him they will be surely surprised!!
Anyhow, the BIG JO came over to the Microsift office where his friend works and then he came over to my room. Dressed in a typical tourist fashion, cap on head (Pata nahin kiski cap thi) and camera attached to the belt, shirt tucked in...looking around for girls (I think!!).....he arrived and dhap se came and parked himself in my room!! Now being the health concious fellow that he is...he was worried that he would get a sunstroke!!!! I assured him that dont worry kuch nahin hoga..but since he had walked such a distance he was entitled to his rest.

Then ( I acted a little evil here)......BIG JO wanted to check his mail and as he stepped up to my laptop, i told him the only person who can check mail on that laptop is me!! If someone esle checks mail then the sys admins will come to know and they will check on it further. Being the seedha baccha that JO is, he stopped midway and said...."OH....aisha bhi hota hai yahan" :D but looking at his innocent(!!) face i decd to stop bugging him and let him check his mail. But hua kya?? Blodddy as soon as he logged on to Orkut and all...he lost all his bearings!!!! Bhul gaya ki main wahin hu!! I mean..What the.....stopped talking to me..."haan haaan....hmmm hmmmm....ye shahi hai....wo shahi hai..ye kaun hai...ye kishne mail kiya...sawaal.com chalu ho gaya)...but then using the only desi tarika I know...he was forced to log off!!!

Next activity - showing him around campush. Well BIG JO was mighty impressed with the campus and he was ready to play squash, billiards if he had more time but since he was on a "toit" schedule he skipped that. And many snaps were taken but JO has the snaps....and he will mail/upload them asap. The snaps were taken in smart poses and JO has a definite plan of telling people that he went to the ISB for a course. And when I said the same to him...all he said was....."hahahahhahaha" And knowing JO he will be laughing after reading this as well!!! JO sudhar jaa yaar sudha jaaa!!

Well that was that and after seeing the campush, JO was on his way. I would have loved it if JO would have stayed over, but he had the return trip next day morning! A small trip but it was fun. And I am sure he had a good time as well. I missed all you guys here....though I am sure JO did not!! He just had me to deal with..:))
What would we be without JO!! :) JO next time you have to come over and stay overnight!!!
FOR SURE!!! Was almost like the times in Pune/Mumbai/Bangalore. Fond memories! :)

In any case you come to India anytime before next April, do feel free to drop in to the campush!!

Khosla Ka Ghosla - Movie Review



Junta

To begin with - the views expressed here are my own!! :)





Khosla Ka Ghosla!!!

How many times does this happen to you? You watch a movie and you can actually feel the ambience shown on screen; when you actually feel for the characters and their on screen problems!
I found Khosla..to be one such movie! An amazingly true to life movie, with real life situations and some really good acting!! Anumap Kher plays KK kholsla, the head of the family. A simple guy who has one wish before he retires, to settle in south delhi, coz his son works in a "multinational" close by. He invests 30 lakhs in a plot. His elder son (naam yaad nahin) - played by Ranvir (I think he takes the cake for the best acting in the film!) is an amazingly real portrayal of a wastrel who does nothing but is still happy with life! A typical dilliwaala with a sharp tongue and a quick to act attitude. His younger brother - Chiraunji Laal Khosla (LOL..I like that name man) played by Pravin dabas is a young fellow who hates his name and dreams of going to USA to work.
And then we have Khurana - a greedy land grabber played menacingly by Boman Irani, who grabs Khosla's bought land illegally!
How the land is taken back from Khurana by the khosla's forms the crux of the story.
Ekdum real type movie banayela hai boss!! Pretty realistic!! And then we have some grrt acting by the supporting cast as well...vinay, naveen nishchal...you have to watch it to blv it! The story drags at some points and the outcome seems too simplistic, the actress Tara Sharma...gosh someone teach her how to speak!!!...but then I am lucky I saw this movie in Delhi! Hyderabad mein dekhi hoti to I would have become really senti and Dilli wapas jaane kaa kaafi mann karta LOL!!
I mean how many movies show families orering from Nirulas to celebrate their "victory"!!!

In fact after watching this movie there is a plan on to write our very own script...GOLCHA KA KHOPCHA!!

And da Kahani Starts

Hey all

Welcome to our own space in cyberspace!!! Our common place to collaborate and keep up with our very own fast moving world!! Bole to, jo bhi kisi ke saath hua,share karne ka mann hai to wo yahan hone ko mangta hai!! A common blog to beat all blogs!!! And if do not have any thing to dicsuss (which will be a rarity)..we shall make our own script.
They say a blogger is a powerful entity, imagine the power of this blog which will have multiple users!!!
Yes!!! From LA to Doon to Oxford to Pune to Hyderabad to Ahmedabad to Bangalore to Dilli....IMAGINE!!
And agar baki log nahin likha to........bole to...bapu ne bola ki baaki nahin likhte to naa sahi, apun to likhega hi likhega!
And who knows, one day when we look back and go through our entries...we realize where all life has taken us and where all we can go from yonder!!
Kyun ho gaye naa senti....coz kahani poori filmy hai doston!!!
