Happy Diwali

Many Deepavali festivals have come and gone. Yet the hearts of the vast majority are as dark as the night of the new moon. The house is lit with lamps, but the heart is full of the darkness of ignorance. O man! wake up from the slumber of ignorance. Realize the constant and eternal light of the Soul which neither rises nor sets, through meditation and deep enquiry.

May this Diwali lit our inner self and help us understand ourself and create ourself..

Happy Diwali !!

Magic of Madhuri Dixit !!

'Aaja Nachley' - the comeback movie of Madhuri, didnt do good in terms of business, though I liked the movie... For her great performance in terms of dance or acting.. I loved her since my childhood and she is one actress I admire for everything. Have seen her almost all movies, even the typical bollywood style. I found her spectacular, with everything she does. Her clarity in the dance performance is mind blowing, her dance looks so natural. Her expression are so effortless and well blended with her dance...

She is trained as a Kathak dancer, in the Indian classical tradition. She made her acting debut in "Abodh" (1984). After a few minor and supporting roles her first major role was in "Tezaab" (1988) which launched her career.

Her dancing skills, facial grimaces and expressive eyes in the songs has haunted the hearts of millions of viewers ever since.In 2001, She was awarded the National Citizens Award to recognize various activities that effect everyday life.

Paani Puri :-)

Thursday evening, left office at 9 PM... M and S both accompanied me in the cab.. I was happy for no reasons, probably enjoying the weather change, as its quite cold in the evening.. 'M' was upset about something related to work, I heard her and tried all to uplift her mood.. But she told me that I am talking like her manager's.. :-) .. Well its kind of happen with all of us, when we are bugged by the work pressure or issues... 'S' also tried to uplift her mood, he kind of prepared the roadmap for her in terms of what all she should do to achieve her desires... Though she was not fully satisfied by our suggestions however was able to recover a bit...

Only thing which could really bring a smile on her face was paani puri... on our way back home from office, we had it several times in fbd.. Its so much fun having it specially at 10 pm on the roadside ;-).... "Paani puri - the reason to smile" So at times life complex problems are solved by simplest things..

'M' has been always a chilled out person, when I met her, I realised we can live life king size.. She is happy go lucky kinds... However last few days has made her a bit upset.. I know its a phase it will get over... Well the association with cab mates have been great... Somehow we have become a part of each other life, and we share, smile, laugh.. And best part is no expectations... :-)
