New Seven Wonders & Taj Mahal

Oh my god! Save me from mails.. Nowadays, I was recieving umpteen fwds a week which was motivating an Indian to vote for Taj Mahal which is currently in 14 th rank. Couple of weeks before, when I received the first mail, i thought of voting for Taj Mahal, went to new7wonders website. The website asks me to register before voting. I was bored and left the website without voting. Later, I realised this is absolutely dump to select wonder by voting like this and it does not reflect the true wonder of the world. One, The person who visited all the listed wonders, was only capable of selecting the wonder. Other people, 99% support their favorite wonder, basically its by geography/culture. Two, SMS/register to vote. This is completely stupid. As there is all possibility for one to make multiple votes. Three, Voting for Taj Mahal, Wait.. Are you sure of the history of Taj Mahal? do you know, Taj mahal is a vedic temple and its not built by Shah Jahan.(try Google search). Even the history

Jhoom Barabar Jhoom

When South India was celebrating Sivaji, North India definitely, has got a reason to celebrate. Its none other than Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, a simply superb comedy flick from Yashraj films. Before I was going to watch movie, I read a sneak peak introduction of the movie and I thought it as another Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna with Abhishek / Amitabh / Yashraj joining together while Bobby Deol replaces Sharukh Khan. But I was completely wrong and the movie proves to be one of the best comedy Film in Bolly wood. Rikki Thukral (Abhishek Bachchan) and Alvira Khan (Preity Zinta) meets each other in a busy station at London while waiting to receive their respective lover/fiance (Lara Dutta and Bobby Deol) . Their train gets delayed for a two hours unfortunately. They started talking with each other, to kill their time which ends up in finding love between themselves. Is their love Crazy? Will this new love supersedes their old love? is the pairs going to be mixed up like Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna climax?

Learning, is the simplest and cutest thing that brings out truth and happiness in the job.. Its the real motivation behind the life.

Time… runs life

In each and every minute, its time that runs all the life. Be it work, eat or even sleep, its time that determines the action. Some say that Man's life is to kill time and some live life as a service to society. Whatever be the reason behind this life, the hardest truth is that Man is deficit of Time.
