Watch Your Step : You Might Have Missed A Happy Moment


We all look high. Only those flashy, mammoth, screaming things will get our attention. And most often what we find will be disturbing or annoying. We miss to see the little things in life. Which were always there, trying to get our attention with their little glow. But we are too over occupied with our worries and frustration that we miss happiness in smaal things.

These thoughts came to me when I had a close look at the coins in my wallet. I am sure you will also seen them. Pocketed them. And gave away. The only thing that might have grabbed your attention will be the digits on it which shows its value. Have you even stopped to notice the different pattern of the hand in them... I admit the photo is bad ( the flash was reflecting on the shiney surface, and without flash it was too difficult to see it. This picture is touched) but you can see the pattern there. Do you feel like appreciating the brilliance of the guy who designed it...

Like this, most of the happiness in our life is also goes unnoticed. The happiness hardly scream its presence. And we conviniently ignore them. Watch your step - stop to see and appreciate the happiness in your life. Enjoy the little moments and live life full.

I can do that. You also can. Good Luck.

Indian Rupee Got A Symbol


Wow...
Look at it. It is very simple and elegant. I liked the new Rupee symbol. Well, when it is big enough to take on Dollar or Pound it needs a powerful attitude too. Waiting for the day when we can see keyboards with the rupee symbol.

Sleazy And Classy


Last weekend I happened to watch Badmash Company and Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic. Forget about the quality of the movies or the content. It raised another question in my mind. The banner, Yash Raj Films, which is considered the biggest and best in Bollywood - does it offer any all-family movies now... The reason is simple - the amount of skin show.

When the Bhatt camp release any movie, the media and revieweres will tear them part for the nudity, lip-locks, dipping neckline, 'unethical treatment' of ladies etc,etc. But they all will keep quite about the YRF movies. Why ? I also read actresses claiming they will do a bikini ya lip-lock scene only if it is for a YRF movie, because they do it artistically ! Gimme a break. None of the above mentioned movies did it the art way. It was like a cheap porn trick. The swimming pool number in a so called kids movie had nothing artistic in it. In the gangster movie the girl who tried to seduce the hero at the beach volelyball scene also had nothing artistic. Not even good erotica they were.

Look at their last few releases. If Aiswarya, Rani, Preity, Priyanka Chopra, Kareena, Anushka Sharma shows it for YRF, will it make it artistic. And if 'poor' Mallika Sherawat, Kangana Ranaut or the likes do it for Vishesh Movies ( Bhatt camp ) the same will be porn ??? Think again.

I guess there are only a few instances where it was shoot artistically. Check the song Mayya Mayya from Guru. Mani Ratnam has took it artistic. But for the others, it is more for the sensual thing than the artistic feel.
