Silence..

Finally, the day had come when He was supposed to leave. He met all of them for that one last time together, that one last good-bye and that one last hug.

She liked him from a long time but just couldn’t let it out. After hearing this news, she knew the time had come. She had to tell him about her feelings. The feelings that she had felt deep and dense inside her every-time she saw him.

They were all there at the air-port to bid him good-bye. He came and hugged her tight. He had never ever done that before. He left. She saw him go. She didn’t tell him anything.

She stood still, with a smile on her face; a wet blur in her eyes but still bliss in her heart. Because that one moment, those few seconds when he held her in his arms, she lived an entire lifetime and she was happy with that.

Some things don’t make sense even if you say them loud but some are felt even if they are never said at all. And that’s the beauty of SILENCE..

KAMLA KA HAMLA...

Hey everyone..Well its after a very very long time I'm back here to pakao u guys with my usually unsual stuff. This is a very funny or rather embarrasing incident that happened with me long time back. But whenever I recollect the same or revisit the same place where it took place, I end up laughing. [And you guys know like how interesting or funny an incident should be to make me laugh...:D] Well.. this is how it goes...

I was driving my way back after dropping off one of my friends near Mulund and I happened to get a signal at the the Teen Haath Naka in Thane. Well, it's a pretty long signal of about 160 secs or something. And as every signal in Mumbai is, even this one's a sacred place for all the beggars, vendors and eunuchs who are popularly known as the KAMLAs and the VIMLAs these days.. all thanks aour raido channels.. Although they aren't that frequent at this place but that was their scheduled day I guess.

Anyways, I was waiting at the signal listening to some crap on the radio and this one eunuch happened to spot me and started asking for some money. The excerpt of the same is as follows:

He/She..?? : Aye raaaaajjjjjjuuuu..... kuch de naaaaa rrrreeee...
I : Kuch nahi hain...[I never give money to these people.. Reason,
dunno...]
He/She..?? : Aye chikne....mere hero.. kuch to de... bhagwan tujhe acchi biwi dega
rrrrreeeeeee....
I : Are yaar....bola na..kuch nahi hain... jaao abhi idhar se...
He/She..?? : AAArreee aisaa kya bolta tu.. tvoda to de... Kya rrree Mere LALU...!!!


After these few last words from his/her mouth, I was stunned. I just couldn't digest what I was referred to as and I handed over some money to him/her. The signal was about to go green and out of curiosity I literally looked outta the window to check out what he/she was referring to other automobile drivers at the signal and I was shocked again... Again the same word.
The signal went green and I thought, mebbe they have left the RAJUs & PAPPUs and have found some new ones. Hope so they get over with that one soon…


Cheers

P.S: For people who don’t know, LALU is my pet name, something by which I’v been referred for like 21 fcukin years..!!!

Symphony of the VOID..

Hey everyone

This one's very weird (with a weird title as well). I dunno but such abnormal cerebrations have always been a part & parcel of my not-so-normal head. And i guess many of yours even. So here's one of the few. Enjoy

Have you ever wondered or analyzed what "VOID" actually means. Emptiness is an obvious answer. I know. But I don't simply agree with it. I'm like one of those who happen to have a confused-yet-so-clear temperament about the general scheme of things. Most of my thinking revolves only around one thing..one question.. "WHY NOT..???".And its amusing because it tends to fetch you very distinct opinions & diverging answers as you apply it to the most obvious banal stuff. Thinking like this is difficult yet so simple to comprehend; ugly yet so beautiful in its own sense & mourning yet so blissful in the end. Maybe that's the reason I tend to act so-like-an-idiot in most of the serious situations or maybe a complete shocker at times. Well, that's what I prefer to call "The Symphony of the VOID". The term itself is so ironic, a paradox in itself. How can something which is VOID be symphonic at the same time. It can be. Read on..

The VOID can be anything, anywhere. A person, an environment, a relation, you, me. Anything. The best way to exemplify it to think about a pipe. An empty hollow pipe. A small one. Nothing in it. Total crap. Of no use what-so-ever. But then you pick it up take it close to your ears & whoa..It starts humming.It starts singing into you. The little piece of metal actually stores in itself the magical sound of silence. It stores in itself the sargam, the symphony along with which the entire universe hums in unison. That's the "Symphony of the VOID" which you can only feel. Never express. And its unique to everyone. Difficult yet so simple to comprehend; ugly yet so beautiful in its own sense & mourning yet so blissful in the end. It helps you to answer the trickiest conundrum ever..What is LIFE ???. Simple. Its a VOID. Its a VOID. Yes & the only way to understand it is take it close to yourself & listen to it. You'l be able to hear the symphony as well. The melody which will make your lips curl upto your ears. And then you'l realize the power of EMPTINESS. The power of NOTHING. The Symphony of VOID.

So next time whenever you feel low, depressed, feel like the VOID inside you taking control. Let it do. Because it might just be helping you to understand the SYMPHONY stored inside.


Cheers

LALIT

P.S: Nothing to say. Completely VOID. Hope you get that..:D

Saat Samundar..Dhik Chik Dhak Chik...

Hey everyone

Its been a long since my last post. And it was a bit serious too. So I was just wondering for the past few days what next to write about. Hmm.. then I kinda recollected this another stupid incident happened with me & my friends. So here's an insight into our stupid world...

It was last year I guess & there was some occassion when all of us had gone out for a late lunch. Late, because when we guys start deciding about what place to go, time just flies away in a jiffy. And we end up going to the same place always...So as expected, even this time it was the HIMALAYA restaurent near Shanmukhanand Hall in Sion. We hogged some good punjabi dishes as usual & were on our way back to matunga station. We thought of walking it up till there for many reasons..the prime most being noone ready to shell out a single penny on the cab...( yes.. we are cheap..!!!)So.. there we were, 5 dolts walking on the footpaths on our way back.

As we near king circle, we sight a "GANNE KA JUICE" waala. We go in to have a glass each. As soon as we enter, we are welcomed by some loud music played in the shop's background & the amplifier was blissfully playing it at a full bass. We all sit there. Everyone looks at each other & in split seconds we are on our feets--dancing to the track SAAT SAMUNDAR. Some age old famous DIVYA BHARTI track.

We all start singing loud---

WE-- Saaaaaaaat Saaaaamuuuunnndaaaarrr...

LOUDSPEAKER-- Dhik chik Dhak Chik...Dhik chik Dhak Chik...

WE(again)-- Saaaaaaaat Saaaaamuuuunnndaaaarrr...

LOUDSPEAKER(again)-- Dhik chik Dhak Chik...Dhik chik Dhak Chik...

WE & LOUDSPEAKER together-- Saaaaat Saaaammmuuunnndaaaarr paaaar mein tere peeche
peeche aaa gaaayiii...

(Meanwhile our glasses arrive at the table. One of my friends, K, lifts his glass,holds it on his head & starts dancing again. Inspired by him, others follow suite-- Drunkards high on nothing.)

WE & LOUDSPEAKER together-- Zulmi meri jaan.. Zulmi meri jaan tere kadmon ke neeche
aa gayi.... Saaaaat Saaaammmuuunndaaaar.... wah...


Hahaaha... We come to our senses after finishing the glasses & also the juicewala is about to pack up. We thank him for the juice & the free ENTERTAINMENT & We all head back on our journey again enchanting the two golden words-- Saaaaat Saaammmuunnndaaarr..Dhik chik Dhak chik...

Cheers

LALIT

P.S: Sugarcane juice can actually give you a HIGH at times.

Enjoy...

Main Kaun..???

Hey everyone

Alright before ME or YOU start with this one, I warn YOU that the following text may hinder YOUR mental development drastically. It may even push YOU into a state of total cerebral disarray eventually leading to an attack--Which type I seriously can't predict. So it totally depends on YOUR discretion to continue further or no. Here it goes...

Once upon a time L hears one, stupidest of the stupidest joke ever in his LIFE.The joke is so lame, so utter non-sensical crap, that L just can't stop laughing after hearing it(Yea.. L is a little crack up there.. but still anyways). He just can't wait to say it out to his friends & check the look on their faces.

L starts—

Ek baar ek sardar rahta hain. Woh Amitabh ka bahut bada fan hain.
So ek din woh decide karta hain ki Amitabh ko milneka..iiich. Aur woh
Mumbai me aata hain.

Us din Amitabh ghar pe akela hota hain. Sardar uske bangle ke watchman
ko bolta hain ki usko kuch bhi karke Amitabh ko milne ka hain. Woh uska bahut
bada fan hain aur bahut dur se aaya hain. Fir watchman usko jaane deta hain.

Sardar darwaze pe knock karta hain.

Amitabh (andar se) -- HAAI.. saala. Kaun hain.. HAAI..

Sardar(bahar se) – Main hun..

Amitabh( fir se) – HAAI.. saala. Kaun hain.. HAAI..

Sardar(fir se) – Main hun..

Amitabh -- HAAI.. saala. MAIN KAUN.. HAAI..

Sardar – Tu AMITABH BACHCHAN…hhahahahahhahahhaa


L bursts into a thunderous laughter. Along with him many from his group do the same. The girls however choose to be indifferent as usual. L & his friends continue their stupidity. They repeat the lines & start off again. L wonders, looking at others who don’t seem to enjoy the joke as they do—“ How can you guys not laugh on such joke yaar..?” ( L, seriously is dumb…)


Cheers

LALIT

P.S: A few days later, one of L’s friends K has to go & meet some M.Tech student A, who takes their laboratory projects. K’s never seen A ever. Still he goes. K reaches the probable location & asks some random guy sitting on one chair.


K – Sir, A sir kidhar hain..??

A - Kya kaam hain..??(The others in the background start giggling & K doesn't
understand what's happening.

K (again) – Sir.. woh project ka kaam hain. A sir kidhar hain..??

A (laughing) – To phir MAIN KAUN hun..???

K ( in split seconds) – Tu AMITABH BACHCHAN…hahahhahahaha

A’s mouth is wide open as his brains can’t register what exactly happened.

Enjoy

45 minutes==4 Stages of LIFE..!!!

Hey everyone

I m back..After not so long but still. Anyways hope all of you out there are doin good. So here's my new post. A complete knowledge of what LIFE is made up of. And by LIFE i'm not talking about my LIFE or your's or someone else's in particular. It's all about LIFE in general. Atleast thats what he told me. He who??? Read on guys..

One morning at around 1130 hrs I had my appointment with some eye-specialist to get my contact lenses done. So I had to get up early & leave with my dad to see the eye-doctor. So at around 1125 hrs I reach this building which had a kinda shady entrance--the ones like the typical commercial buildings have which came up long ago & then had noone to look after. Hmmm.. So I reach the desired place & walk upto the receptionist, which again was one of the typical receptionists you have at the typical commercial building offices. i verify my appointment & then wait for my turn which thankfully was 2nd.

The doc walks in like at around 1145 hrs & the 1st guy enters his cabin. I was sitting around, reading some stupid mags lying here & there, completly unaware of what is gonna strike me in the next 45 mins to come. The 1st guy walks out & its my turn. I look at the clock & it stares at me-- 1150hrs. I enter the cabin.

The doctor was a bit old-- in his 60s mebbe. I didn't expect anything different either. He asks for my name & then proceeds on with my eye check up. He puts some device on my eyes & then starts experimenting..hmmm.. actually playing with it. He puts in one glass inside it & then asks--Hows this..??. I say-- "Ah ha.. Not that good". He goes again. I answer. He goes.I answer. Fnally he stops & gets my actual lens power. I look at the clock again-- 12.10. He calls in my dad then to explain him the details & get his fees. And then starts a conversation which I like still remember. I simply can't erase it out of my memory.

After a little hi--hello with my dad, He starts. And man did he start well. I was just stunned at what struck me after that maybe because I was completly unaware of what was gonna shoot me off. He said--" Temme your age beta.." "20" I replied & then he continued as if there was no end--" See, you are just 20 now. This time is for enjoying & understanding what LIFE is. LIFE is a simple concept of four stages. Stage 1-till you are 25 yrs old. You are in this stage. In this stage your main aim should be studying & working for your future. All your concentration & efforts should be focussed towards building a good career for yourselves." I wondered what the f**k is this guy talking about man. LIFE..???Shit.. But he had more.

He continued--" Stage 2-- from 26 till 50. In this satge you shoud have all the "FUN" in your LIFE. Get married. Have kids. Enjoy your work. And understand your responsibilities towards your family as well. But ha the "FUN" should never die out you see." Man.. the face he made when using the "F" word was something to watch. It made the unhderlying meaning crystal clear to me. And to add to my misery,my dad as well who just kept staring at me wondering how the f**k am I taking all that. Anyways the doc continued--" Stage 3--from 51 to 75. In this stage you should think about serving your society. Your involvement in your family which now has like your grandchildrens as well, should be minimal. You should think about the society." I was just on the verge on loosing it now but was somehow controlling it. But He seriously had come prepared to give someone his piece of mind that day.

He--" Stage 4-- from 76 till you are alive. In this stage...." Knock Knock.. Someone comes at the door & gosh i'm relieved & i guess so was my dad. But He is pissed. The look he gives to the nurse says it all. I look at the clock--1235hrs. "F**K ..!! 45 mins!!!" I shout out loud, in my mind obv.

We leave the place as fast as we can & i promise not to visit it again. I seriously had some crap put into my head which made it go bonkers for sure. But I guess the doc surely might have enjoyed.

Cheers

Lalit

P.S: Sincere thanks to the nurse who came in & saved me from some more mental torture. But wish she could have come in a little early..[:D]

Enjoy
