Journey Called Life..

I remember how at a time when I had just joined college, I was particularly crazy about a show on TV - Roadies. I don't think I need  to brief any teenager about that show, but for those who don't know what the show was about, it was a show wherein a group of  teenagers selected from different locations across the country used to be teamed up. They would then travel to various destinations  on bikes, facing various huddles, enjoying at exotic locations and competing with each other at tasks set out for them and then the  last one to survive in the whole game would be declared as the winner. I was extremely crazy about that show initially and in the first  few seasons, I hardly missed any episodes. I always wished... I want to be a Roadie... I want to travel and see everything. But then, today, over 10 years down the line, when I sit down by the window,on a Saturday evening, watching the traffic on  highways, I feel are we not on the Roadies everyday..??? We are travell

Of Hands & Lines & Beyond....!!

I still recollect that moment, when in the bus, amidst the slow moving Mumbai traffic which din't seem to trouble us a bit... You immediately noticed my palm and the lines on it.... The way you complimented on my soft, baby-like skin... How we wondered.... if these lines truly decided our destiny..... How you playfully joked that I had a smaller "Life Line" How I noticed that you had such a deep "Brain Line.." How we discussed about what each line stands for..... How we wished to decipher whats written beyond them... Then how we turned to "That nothing is destined.... Its all about choice & our decision..." And then how after a few days.. We decided that maybe we are not meant to hold each other's hands forever...!!!!

Yesterday I was walking back home with my friend when I just exclaimed, "Wow..So Cute...!!!" My friend turned around & said "Who...???" "Arey aage gayi..!!" "Aage gayi..???? Were you looking at some baby girl..???" "Naa re....Woh.............................." . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .......................Woh car... Beetle...!!!! :D But really, its such a sweet & cute design for a car naa..!!! I actually like such cars more than those ferocious, speedy & racing type cars. I have liked many cars but till date, "Beetle" has been my favourite. & the only word I exclaim on seeing it is "Wowww.... So Cute...!!!!" BTW, my favourite car is Honda City..!!! Not that I don't like all those Mercedes' & BMW's etc etc... but just that I like The Sparkling Silver Honda City more than those ones.......!!! So which is your favourite car..???

" Ohkk .. So When you get down, just go to ur right hand side straight & u'll find a shop ' Girnar ' It is very big..I'll be just waiting opposite it." " Arey woh McDonalds wala road hai naa .. usme hi aage jaake turn legi to wahan pe shop hai ... Kisi ko bhi puch naa , you will find it." " Arey get down before the flyover starts & take the service road straight.. Then take your first right & you'll reach the office..." Left, right, straight, curves, turns & what not..?? Uff this big city & so many directions..... I just was lost in this whole scene that I frequently called this city - "Thane" a Bhool bhulaiya . Every time my dad or friends instructed me about finding any location in this place, I would seriously avoid going there alone.. I would accompany someone or try to get my work done somewhere else.... But.. but ..but... Three months ago, I was posted at THANE branch of my bank

Pehchan Kaun..???

It is said that India is a country with "Unity In Diversity" and it is indeed so true.. The country is so vast and the people living here are so different from each other. Right from their looks to the way they live, eat, walk, talk & behave, everything is so different.. If you have visited at least four states in the country, you would have surely experienced the difference amongst people. But with the metro culture rising at various cities, you are likely to come across different people belonging to different cities of India. The question that arise now is, "HOW TO IDENTIFY DIFFERENT CITIZENS OF INDIA??? " So presenting You with some quick tips that would help you to know the people around you..!!! Scenario 1 Two guys are fighting and a third guy comes along, sees them and walks on. That's MUMBAI..!!! Scenario 2 Two guys are fighting. Both of them take time out and call their friends on their mobiles. Now 50 guys are fighting. You are definitely in PUNJAB

Some BEST Moments..!!!

Sharing some of the best moments of my life.. Best not as best actually but as some moments of my journey on the BEST Buses in Mumbai... I generally start my day with a journey by bus to my college and right from this time things start going wrong..... I mean the day when I am on time the bus is late and on the days when I get late by even a minute, the bus is on time and it is gone too.......!! Then I have to wait far another bus for around 15 minutes or find some other option...!! :( It happens with me always.....!! Travelling is always the best when I can grab a window seat and the stop near my home being the first stop, finding a seat is never a great task..!! But else otherwise finding a good seat(good because some seats are worse than standing too... specially the last seat... Seems as if you are on a roller-coaster ride, specially due to the well maintained roads in Mumbai) is not easy. If you are in a mood to listen to a lecture in the morning just try giving the conductor a
