THOUSAND DREAMS LIKE THESE......

Yesterday, i saw perhaps one of the best indian movie ever made. it didn't have any naach-gaana in the rain, or the girl-guy hitting the clubs....but there was something in it which made that impact. it was the way the story was written based on the events from 1969-1975 period during Indira Gandhi's regime that makes the difference. the movie is "hazaaron kwaishyein aisi"...which literally means "thousand wishes like these...". it definitely comes in the line of
mr and mrs Iyer which is one of my favourites.....the story of this movie revolves around 3 characters and about their work....their passion for work and to what consequences each person faces ultimately. unless u see the movie.....it's very difficult to make out what happens in the movie is right or wrong....i mean A loves B, and B loves A....C loves B but B does not love C....and A,B,C are in the same college...very good friends too.....by the way B is a girl here....:)

after their college....A decides to see the Real India....for some reason he chooses to go to Bhojpur, Bihar to spread the awareness among the villagers about the atrocities and bring about a revolution. so on day of the farewell party A+B=> AB.....:)....:)...and unfortunately C sees the whole thing....:(....after 4 years C is a big business tycoon with contacts all over the parliament...and one day he meets a guy...(i guess this character is based on Sanjay Gandhi's life...) and comes in contact with the top most echelons of the government....their first confrontation is very interesting.....and there was one particular dialouge which i would like to quote...
politician: everybody is corrupted here in India.
c: i don't agree that everybody is corrupted, but the trick is to find out who is....
there in a party C meets B....but B has married D....then we come to know that B is in regular contact with A through letters and one morning she just goes to the village in Bihar....again to have a nice time with A..(literally...to have sex with A..:)....) but somehow C manages to interrupt the holiday mood....phew...
then the whole story proceeds with lots of incidents which are the exact representation of the events which happened during emergency......somewhere in the middle of the story B leaves D and after 2 years she gives birth to a son whose father is A....but after the emergency is imposed she's arrested by the police for having connections with the notorious naxalite of the region...that's A. A is arrested too...and in the jail he's beaten up and B is raped....
the story ends in a very interesting and dramatic manner.....just everything changes.....C is almost killed by the police for helping A to escape....and A realises that he has had enough and he wants to lead a happy life and takes up medicine.....and C is almost crippled for life.....but he doesn't want to stay in a hospital, so he goes away with B who's in the same village now.....ohhhh...
seems pretty confusing huh??.....may be.....but don't miss this critically acclaimed movie......it's worth watching atleast once.....but a word of caution, if you are a fun loving guy/girl.....this movie is extremely serious.....:)....
more to come......i am just dying to see probably one of the best movies released this year...."IQBAL"

the SQUARE ONE gossip

yuppie.....BOSM has started and everything seems to be rushing at the current moment. i fail to understand why they had to make it for 5 days instead of 4. anyway there are no major competitions today on the first day of BOSM....except the BITS vs IIT, kanpur match.....yesterday went to gym-g to have a look around...what's going on.....i could spot some pretty old faces too.....a guy named charan from SBMJC, bangalore.....aravind from MREC,hyd...and lot more.....though i don't remember even a single girl who has come here....but who cares......it has never been so hot out here.....(i am talking about the oomph factor!!!......:)...:)...) there are some lovely girls here who have come here to 'play' and 'cheer' up their teams....it guess it works out for everyone....hehehe.....
it was very disappointing to see that BRAC hasn't come this time...and so did SRCC.....both of them have some quality players especially in basketball....and both were semi-finalists last year. and the big surprise was that there were only 2 players in SBMJC guys team, basketball who had played last year....nevertheless i expect a gr8 competition from this amazing team....
i just hope it doesn't rain for the next 4 days...otherwise i would lose every oppurtunity to build a good team who are going to take the entire responsibilty of the club.....but i wonder sometimes most of them are too busy to realise where the whole club is exactly heading to....
that's the main reason why one has to see a leader in someone and when one gets to see that spark, he has to be well groomed and made into a fine and extremely sensible person to take on the whole world.....
yesterday i had lot of things in my mind to say to a expected crowd....but nevertheless things didn't go as expected ....the number was too small. but there were 3 most important people whom i adore out there with me throughout the night....i just hope i get more help from others...i do understand that at one point of time it looks as if i am doing the "atlas" thing with the entire club.....but is that my fault???....i just love the work so much.....otherwise how could i make so many friends out here....how could i get introduced to all thos people who respect you???.....
i just hope things go on well.....and make some amazing friends.....and may be things will start falling into place atleast by OASIS.....
more update on matches and all the masala factor to come soon.....
till then.....heeho.....main chala

BOSMANIA.......

the time has come now when i look back at the amazing time i had here in BITS...especially during the festivals... BOSM and Oasis and smile at what i have gained out of it.....both of them being conducted in the same semester under different secretaries attract the major attention of almost everyone around here....
today BOSM is gonna start amidst dark clouds and heavy showers, as it always does....only that this year situation looks far more serious....but it feels lovely out here just to see rain falling everywhere....it's been so long....it's what we have been waiting for, for such a long time. i remember everytime..everyear...it rains on the inaug day but the enthu levels never die here....people trying to cheer up the home team and wondering how many medals we are gonna this time!!!
i am just waiting to see some colleges perform out here....one of them is SBMJC, bangalore. what can i say about this amazing combination of strength and excellence.....talent is abundant and they have got everything that u can ask for from a sportsman. i am just dying to see the best basetball(b) match u can ask for during BOSM....SBMJC vs BRAC (delhi)....these two teams are the titans of baski as far as my knowledge goes...last year i witnessed an unbelivable match in the leauges....BRAC was leading till the last 5 minutes when everything turned to SBMJC's favour and they won by 2 points. that was one of the most nerve wrecking matches ever.
this time we have got a special entry....IIT,kanpur. only 12 members are coming but the best part is they are gonna play basketball.....ohhhh!!!! can u imagine the electricity in the air if there's a match between
IIT vs BITS.....ppl are gonna be on high.....it would be a question of supremacy!!!!
BOSM is fun....u get to see some lovely girls walking and playing in the ground which remains empty almost throughout the year.....i just hope we win lots of matches this time.....atleast for the effort we have put in this time. more reports coming up.....

but the bottom line is....may be this is going to be my last BOSM...:(...... it's so hard to believe that the next year i may not be here.....it's so hard to believe that i am gonna miss all the fun...but life goes on.....

life is a rollercoaster....

it's been a wonderful time so far this semester.....when i came here.....we were flabberghasted to listen to the number of people coming from various states and the boy-girl ratio (phew....this is one is just crazy).....almost 8:1.....can u believe that......especially for an institute which boasts that it has the highest number of women graduating every year from an university.....it was almost 40-45% for the past few years......anyways no regrets......i guess every guy should know why...:)....:)...

anyways.....things have gone pretty fine.....have met some really wonderful people this semester.....and some special people who just come into u r life...and make u r day as good as it can be....:)....it something like u are walking on a empty street with the cool breeze touching u r face and u look up at the sky and see the stars gazing at u.....and u smile at them....
yesterday i was watching a movie which had a quote that goes something like this...."when a guy looks at the girl he loves, he looks at her as if he is looking at his birthday present and he just cannot stop to open it..."....may be this is the truth....this is all what we wait for our whole lives...just to get that special look from a person whom u love..:)

lets keep this aside and get down to some serious stuff......something strange is happening to me this summer....i guess i can read the signals which my brain and heart are sending me at the same time.....something is burning inside me ....a kind of cinder which just keeps on burning.....and i have began to look at new things and start understanding about them..... for example the b-plan competitions......i had just one idea that could be made into a substantial b-plan and got an amazing team who have the potential to be the best in their respective fields...
since the time i started to think about this.....everyday a new thing crops up in my mind...and there i am in a dilemma....when should i make this happen in reality???....it's driving me crazy....and there's a sense of urgency in everything.....a zeal to learn....a zeal to outperform the rest....a zeal to be the best in what u are good at.....

things change in this wonderful place.....u make new friends.....meet some amazing people.....but the sad part is.....everytime u think about it....u are a moment closer to complete u r 4/5 years here.....that's what scares me.....they say this place teaches u to be efficient in whatever u do and wherever u are.....but i fail to understand how is this even possible at a point when u don't even understand what u are doing...????.....u are not even sure if u do something.....how will it help u???........only time has all the answers....

at the end of the day.....i just pray God to stop atleast one moment so that i can tell something to that one person whom i like very much......just give me one chance to do something this time....i have made a mistake twice....i don't want to do the same the third time....
