So I loved the idea…..


Asian Paints Classic 90’s: This ad is featured here just because it reminds me of my childhood.


Limca Ad: IMO best jingle ever written for an indian Ad. Enjoy it till end….


Bajaj Classic: Highly Retro. All time fav classic. Papa had baja super when i was a kid… So i could connect myself to this ad..

 


Hero Honda Dhak Dhak: This is where indian ad industry started to see a change… Trend changer…


Bajaj Ad in early 2000: This one has a little edge on Honda’s Dhak Dhak Campaign. Just try to feel the concept and message delivered… (Special Kudos to Sardarji in the ad…)


Coca Cola Series ad 1: Coke started to revitalized the old indian classic songs.. In 2009-10 coke came out with this beautiful ad and gave a new life to song tum jo mil gaye ho… The song was already gaining some popularity because of indian idol 2. Coke just nailed it


Cocal Cola Series ad 2: Very same year on diwali coke came up with another one. A less heard song jaata kahan hai deewane was re-introduced to today’s generation…. Search out for original song on you tube and give it a try…


Samsung Metro: Very Nice Jingle… i wish this ad was bit longer in duration.

Where were you when I was burned and broken,
While the days slipped by from my window watching,
Where were you when I was hurt and helpless,
Because the things you say and the things you do surround me….
While you were hanging yourself on someone else’s words,
Dying to believe in what you heard,
I was staring straight into the shining sun….

Lost in thought and lost in time,
While the seeds of lifeand the seeds of change were planted….
Outside the rain fell dark and slow,
While I pondered on this dangerous but irresistible pastime,
I took a heavenly ride through our silence,
I knew the moment had arrived,
For killing the past and coming back to life….

I took a heavenly ride through our silence,
I knew the waiting had begun,
And headed straight…. into the shining sun….

Dwar jiya ke kholat nahi…”

Watched Rajneeti today… first half was good… Its an awesomely paced movie with a weak wind up. Still I would recommend it. Definitely (atleast) one time watch… Loved the song ‘mora piya’.

Its almost 3:00 am. Feeling so lonely.  I have no one to talk with… Feeling so depressed.

I have faced several tough patches in my life and like before this one will pass too (I hope)…

“It’s always darkest before the dawn.”

In last 20 years, it always rained this day. Its my B’day today….

Bachpan mein jab b’day waale din baarish hoti thi to main rota tha. Agar baarish ki wajah se log nahi aayenge to fir gifts kaise milenge… Hamesha sochta tha ki agar b’day ke din baarish na ho to kitna accha ho… Jyaada log aayenee aur jyaada gifts milenge.. But now jab baarish nahi hai to I realized that there is no one to attend my b’day….. God has great sense of Humour.

Anyways… all I have to say…

Thoda hai Thode ki zaroorat hai…
Zindagi phir bhi yahan khoobsurat hai….

The teacher would call students to the  chalkboard one at a time. The first student would draw an object on the  chalkboard, and each following student would add something to the picture  to make it a new picture.

The  teacher called on James to start things off.
James  returned to his seat.
The  teacher called on Ernie next.

Ernie  returned to his seat.
Now  it was Suzy’s turn.

Suzy  returned to her seat.
Next,  the teacher called Jerry  to the board.

Jerry  returned to his seat.
Kim  was called to the board.

Kim  returned to her seat.
About  this time, little Johnny began waving his arm hysterically. Little Johnny  was well known for being off center, so the teacher was reluctant to call  on him for anything. But as the teacher looked at the picture on the  chalkboard, she thought that there was no way that little Johnny could  possibly do anything to make this pictur e dirty. So she cal led on little  Johnny, and he ran to the chalkboard.

­The  entire class erupted with laughter…. the Teacher fainted.
Little  Johnny had done it  again.

They symbolize Courage, Strength and Faith. I have worshipped them through and through. A single glimpse of them has motivated me in the lowest and darkest moments.
But now I can see them fall into pieces. All my faith and hopes are shattering… This is tough time for us. I just pray to God that we pass through it.

At times, I am an egoistic bastard who never gives up easily for anyone. But in course of my life I have granted, few ppl, a power to manipulate me (both in positive and negative sense).  Now as of today, I am feeling cheated, insulted and neglected. I crushed my egos and came back to you again and again, but you never cared.  I dont know whether today was my last attempt to carry on the relationship, but the response I got has killed something inside me. Life will never be same again.
Anyways. Happy B’day. Have a blast (you already blasted me :D )

In the last 6 years, since Bhajji and Me are following IMDB 250, we have never seen The Godfather getting replaced by any movie. Even The Departed and Spiderman 3 failed in doing that.

But as os yesterday’s listing The Dark Knight is new number 1. Right now am into busy work schedule. I am dying to watch this movie. May be I can spare some time on Thursday.. Batman Begins was one of the finest movies ever made. I hope the sequel lives upto my expectations.

Here is the official site for The Dark Knight
