I love Web-services

if (you are a developer, don’t know what they are and interested)

{

      start with Apache Axis2

} else if (you know what they are, know Spring basics and curious about me falling in love with them all-over again

{

      try Apache CXF

}

The lines still hum…

Kya keh ke gaya tha shayar vo sayana

Aag ka dariya doob ke jana

Happy Gurpurab

The concept is very nicely presented in form of movie. If a director can make audience like Salman despite his hopeless dialogue delivery and over-acting, he can definitely make audience like his movie – that’s what Mr. Shah has done. He has created a masterpiece which can make everyone among us relate this story to some random phase of our lives. Me too got remembered of couple of old times long back in life (more than half decade when we all were young stupid’o’s – now young and thoughtful!!).

Me and Chunks we there watching this while missing all those relocated movie partners – Kanav, Dhami, Anish, Rajat and who else.

Also watched 3 Idiots promo and it looked colorful – just like the novel.

PS: While leaving PVR, Chinks told the same without me telling him anything – had this movie made 5-6 years back, it had made sense. Times have changed not for us but for everyone else – be it a college going guy or a professional.

Had I known that,

What had been better

Some things in life happen so instantly that they leave you feeling awkward. And you don’t know what can be done to overcome that awkward.

It charges its employees even for Tea and Coffee in this country known as India. Still Drinking Water is freely available in its premises.

If it was a book, its title had been -

Title: 3LC – …

and if it had been a movie, summary might had gone like -

Summary: Two years back a big internal management scam resulted in exit of most of the brains from Software Giant 3LC leaving behind most of the Idiocracy and A Few Good Men. Net joined 3LC on the verge of winter last year and Sangy in mid-summer of this year, both with big expectations of finding same pride as it was projected by organization to the outer world.

And here starts our book/movie…sometimes I wonder how I come up with such magically cipher words!!

Sangy (co-writer/director) would had laughed like anything to hear the title.

Yes I know what else comes in same league:

Haso Jiyo Muskurao

Kya pata Kal Ho Na Ho

Will remember this for today’s conversation!

Nobel Peace prize 2009 is being given to a person who made so many

hatred speeches

in this year itself.

This puts question mark on very existence and purpose of Nobel Peace Prize itself.

No wonder why Mahatama Gandhi never took this prize despite being nominated for five times in row.

And here was my point -

After Sachin, Kumble and Srinath, it is him only whom I think as one of the best Indian players who play with spirit no matter how he plays!

Before that I had said -

I always liked him

in early years ODI

and now in test matches

There you go Rahul Dravid!

We are all genetically programmed

to

rebound and win

Thank you R Sreekumar

Google Wave is a browser based real time communication and collaboration system from Google based. As per Google’s definition -

Google Wave is an online tool for real-time communication and collaboration. A wave can be both a conversation and a document where people can discuss and work together using richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.

If it grows as expected, Google Wave will replace desktop-based messengers, document sharing and image editing applications and the development platform used behind Wave can become next revolution in web-based application development.

Fingers crossed about its launch world-wide.

It is about a boy learning to be self-dependent in after-college life. A boy who never cared about classes, exams, responsibilities is made to become disciplined and independent in hard-way. He is taught by his parents and his friends. First half of movie is all about the young college-going boy and second half is about him learning to be professional while revealing beauty of his city Bombay to the most recent and closest friend.

Movie is little slow and dangling from the subject in between and that may disturb audience up to some extent. Best role turns out to be the role played by Supriya Pathak mother of Sid/Siddy/Siddharth.

Was good experience overall to watch this movie after such long interval and in a nice company.

PS: I know Karan Johar apologized for referring Mumbai as Bombay in this movie but personally I think that it is up to the people to refer to the city by its old name or new name…after all it is a free country.

As Sunshine thinks of Ranbir Kapoor just next to Emraan Hashmi, so do I after this flick – would try to avoid this actor.

True friends are never forgotten, they live within our hearts and souls…

This one is for you Sunshine.

Wish you many happy returns of day

Silences make the real conversation between friends.

Not the saying but never needing to say is what counts…

Thank you, Funfhine and Fampi for all this support I needed in these tough times!!

BECAUSE FOR THE ONE WHOM YOU CRY

DOES NOT DESERVE YOUR TEARS

AND THE ONE WHO DESERVES

WILL NEVER LET YOU CRY

***

TREAT EVERYONE WITH POLITENESS

EVEN THOSE WHO ARE RUDE TO YOU,

NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT NICE

BUT BECAUSE YOU ARE NICE

***

NEVER SEARCH YOUR HAPPINESS

IN OTHERS

WHICH WILL MAKE YOU

FEEL ALONE,

RATHER SEARCH IT IN YOURSELF

YOU WILL FEEL HAPPY

EVEN IF YOU ARE LEFT ALONE

***

ALWAYS HAVE

A POSITIVE ATTITUDE IN LIFE.

***

THERE IS SOMETHING POSITIVE

IN EVERY PERSON.

EVEN A STOPPED WATCH IS RIGHT

TWICE A DAY

HAPPINESS ALWAYS LOOKS SMALL

WHEN WE HOLD IT IN OUR HANDS.

BUT WHEN WE LEARN TO

SHARE IT,

WE REALIZE HOW BIG AND PRECIOUS IT IS!

Thank you, Manoj

An interesting story of two twins, bright and dark – extremes and still attached to each other. Though it is quite vulgar but great comedy, nice songs, stunning action and fantastic screenplay.

Vishal Bhardwaj makes another masterpiece – only for adults who can understand the meanings lying underneath.

Rating: 8/10

PS: I forgot once again and that’s how I ended up watching this movie twice in PVR on 14th August and 15th August but the wonderful company I had, didn’t make me feel sorry even once!!

Hope I will get over with this bad habit one day…Amen.
