Sautan-the other language....!!!

Its more romantic than Hitler....
Its more musical than Afghanistan bombings....
Its as big a suspense,as the 2012-end of world theory.....
Its more embarrasing than a steamy Mallika-Emraan sex scene being watched with family.....
Its more terrorising than 26/11/2008....Its more henious than the Goa homicides....
Its more tyrannical than the Taliban....Its more unjust than the anti-Indians spree in Australia.....
Infact its a full on masala movie material.

Its our very own,houseful play, "Minirashtra Drama sabha"

Introduction:
Some prominent characters of it are Ashok Chabaau,Sharad Gawar,Abbu Zakhmi.....& bingo!!the lead actor is- Raj Bhakre.

Scene I:
Background - Its a place where the only policy is divide & rule.A very recent measure towards this goal is bringing up younger sister Marathi(being a regional language) against elderly Hindi (poor national language of the bereaved nation...) of our very dear & royal Devanagari family...
(Hey!!!this i call "the controversy of converting real sisters into step-sisters".......ok wait!!!I have a better one "SAUTAN-the other language"......hahahaha...)

Action - Here some Raj Bhakre aide slaps & makes Abbu Zakhmi (injured ;-)..),then a one-sided WWF match.Watch out!!!If you thought Zakhmi is very white collared,then i am afraid you are on the wrong side.He proclaims himself to be a non-violent soldier of the Hindi army,ready to die for her any moment....(putting the martydoms & martyrs on border to shame.. :o( )

And if wondering about the producer,Sharad Gawar & the director,Ashok Chabaau??They are busy selling the tickets & minting money outside the amphitheatre..While the Tamasha is going great guns,I come out of the crowded space for a breather...Two little girls playing on the swing....going hand-in-hand towards the sea-saw.....
Curiousity calls to ask...'Who are you??'
Awaiting their replies..& framing other questions for them....(What are you two doing here??opposed to all the people being inside & enjoying??)
......................She is my sister....we are Marathi & Hindi..........................Smiles my heart...clear of all doubts....no further enquiry needed.......
True....blood ties break hard....

plzzz take care....;o(

Dear readers,i recieved this mail from one of my friends.It provoked me to think over it seriously..It goes this way....

Fwd : Fw : Beware-- AIDS spreads like this also
Dear all,

It's in India-Karnataka-Bengaluru(Banglore)

A 10 year old boy had eaten pineapple 15 days back and fell sick from the day he had eaten it.
Later when he had his health check up done...doctors diagnosed that he had AIDS.

His parents could not believe it...Then the entire family underwent a check up..none of them suffered from HIV/AIDS...So the doctors checked with the boy if he had eaten out....
The boy said "yes"..he had pineapple that evening...Immediately a group from the hospital went to the pineapple vendor to check...

They found that the pineapple vendor had a cut on his finger and while cutting the pineapple his blood spread onto the fruit..

When they got his blood checked....the guy was suffering from AIDS...but he himself was NOT aware of his illness....

Unfortunately the boy is suffering from it now....

Please take care while you eat from road side vendors(particularly tasty vada pavs,pani puris and sliced fruits) and please forward this mail to your dear ones...

PEOPLE PLEASE TAKE CARE...

An encounter with a ViRuS...

.....She was sitting beside me..we shared smile and a few words to while away some time.. A lady who had consumed may be 50 to 55 years of life...it didn't take long for me to notice the cyst(a cancereous one) on her neck...felt pity for the bearer..and hoped she recuperates quickly and safely from it..

      A year down the lane,she had been detected with Cox(tuberculosis) and though she has shed most of the disease,the treatment still continues...hey what's that??A bit of paper jumped out of her medical(test reports',prescriptions',X-rays',etc...) file..picking it up i could not move my eyes off it...

It was ELISA declaring her HIV+.....

Suddenly the room darkened,i couldn't feel or visualise anything except for the words HIV+....
My throat was suddenly arid like a desert,a cactus like lump in there,i couldn't gulp my own saliva....a drop of sweat breaking down my temple...i'm stoned...
Suddenly i realised she was stinking...all of a sudden the air surrounding me was polluted...i couldn't breathe...i was choked..

Just couldn't realize what was wrong with me...i was always from the educated lot,knew that HIV didn't spread through contact,air,sitting beside each other on same bench,sharing same glass of water or food,mosquito bites...and many more....

Still unable to find out was i scared of it???was it the hatred for it???was it an inhibition???what was it??
i have taken part in many rallies,debates,educational programmes,etc on HIV/AIDS awareness(but never encountered a carrier)...i know the causes and reasons for the spread of the disease....

Then after regaining some of my lost senses,i was inquisitive about how she got infected....?????
Reason number 1- it couldn't be from mother to child..
Reason number 2- it  could or couldn't be through blood transfusion...because i trusted the blood banks...
Reason number 3- unprotected sex....i excluded it to preserve her sanity..
so i zeroed in on infected needle injection....
What ever the reason may be,point is her body was nurturing the virus....
Now i realise the constant recurrence of various other diseases in her....

Is she still in her initial stage??is she totally possessed by the virus???is she a patient of AIDS??is she dying???.....All such questions kept hovering me...

I left my lunch plate half filled,just couldn't swallow the morsel.....and believe it or not i puked the other half i had after a while...
I was bitten by a bug called HIV....

Was very restless until i wrote this blog....now feeling much better as i passed on the bug to you all  ;-) :-D.....hehehhehe...well jokes apart..!!! I don't how many of you all would empathize with me,but i feel its much a thought provoking thought....do let me know what you felt on this....

Excuse me!!!

Last week i was travelling in a panvel bound local train......there were hardly any soul in the first class ladies compartment.....A girl boarded the train from Seawoods station......she was a student which was readily expressed by her attire...may be a junior college student....

She came and occupied the seat on the other side to where i was sitting....removed a book..an apple...started reading and eating.....

But one thing she did annoyed me to the core of the word.....she put her feet on the seat with her shoes on.....anger was my very first expression....second i was thinking how do i make her aware of her indecent act.....

My mind was battling and she got up to alight at Belapur....

Then i said its high time,i got to speak to her...and....

"Excuse me lady??u spoilt the seat...".....back came a reply with action...."SORRY!!"and she wiped it with her scarf....smiled at me....i winked at her....Smiles all over and a sense of pride...!!!

More than being proud i felt a certain sense of satisfaction and mirth.....

Cheers!!!My Engineering days!!!......

Huff...!!!Finally done with the last paper of BE...Happy Independence Day to all my fellow prisoners/strugglers/companions/friends/etc....hehehehe;-)
Now no more bunking lectures,
signing undertaking(100% attendence....its too much,violation of students' rights..:-( ......),
late night completions(just xeroxing from past year's scrap),
no GTs(enjoyed it very much;o) ...)
dozing off in the class(i used to...hahaha...shhh...secret;-D ...),
no standing in queues for submissions,no one night fights any more....
no more struggling for the dream 40....

At the same time the fun is also skidding from life,the free spirit just rolling away,the confidence that world is at our foot steps.......
sipping hot tea in the canteen be it rain or hot and boiling summer,
playing Uno....cards(Not at home,rummy..sorry bad at remembering their names;-) ....),

MAFIA any one........???!!!!

Slowly the friends seem to be like fast receding trees viewed from a fast moving vehicle of time............................
The dreams being replaced by tensions,future security plans,anxieties...and what not....
The future seeming bright for some...blank for some...undecided for many...and uncertain for all.....
We are stepping out into the rude,insensitive,unknown,insecure,ruthless world....from a little harsh,irritating but protective and our very own world of college.......
ALL THE BEST... to all my mates.....!!!!!!!take on the world with confidence....Rock on!!!!

Loneliness...!!!;o(

You are always with me...!!!Whether i am ecstatic or melancholic..whether i am lost in the crowd or try to discover myself,all alone..

When i am at the peak i find only you besides me...

& you certainly are there when i am low...

People call you the greatest curse one can give one's own self...

You are hated...you are avoided..you are disowned..you are to be thrown out of the window..you are the one to be shut door in front of...

But you follow everyone like a shadow..you are the piece of land i keep my next step on...you are the drop of water of water when i am dying of thirst..

You constantly pushing me towards dead end...but at the same time you give me the only ray of hope..

shopping anyone??
