Cinemas, my father's generation used to call it talkies, whereas we comfortably calls it movies, are a form of expressionist art, though costly, can be a suitable vehicle to broadcast a person's view the way he/she is looking into the society - partly or fully. And we now-a-days make ourselves used to accustomed with the subtle fear of terrorist eventualities - be it in any form. This cinema - A Wednesday - directed by Neeraj Pandey is able to depict the increasingly inherent indignation of general people, called collectively as public, towards hollow, mission-diverted eventualities of terrorists. The title of the cinema, like it's main fulcrum Nassirudding Shah , is just 'A Wednesday' - comes with generic specification it may happens on anyday, - not on some specific red calender days India may susceptible for uncanny eventualities! And Nasirudding Shah, here is just a nameless 'stupid common man', implanted five bombs into five different locations of Mumbai in the intend of get rid of cockroaches from his home. It involves some distinct dialogs between Nasirudding and Prakash Rathor, C.P., Mumbai (Anupam Kher) to handover four terrorists from different Mumbai jails, namely - Ibrahim Khan (Mumbai '93 blast), Iflak Ahmed (Gujrat '02 blast), Md. Zalil (Mumbai 06 blast) and Kurshid Lala. As per Nassirudding's claim all the four are taken in Juhu aviation base, guided by two able police officers - Jay Singh (Jimmy Shergill) and Alif Khan (Aamir Bashir) chased by UTV Reporter Naina Roy (Deepal Shaw) and photographer Raj. Pardon me to stop here - lets wrap the story upto watching of the movie.
To me, - the pivotal point is the very last scene of the cinema when Anupam Kher meets Nassiruddin Shaw in face - this is just superb - the way Nassiruddin moves from one shade of his character to the other. All actors are apt, dialogs, direction and detailing (both in scenes as well as in characters) are also proportinate - specially dialogs on Anupam Kher are mingled aptly with witty humor.
This cinema is surely view-able. Stupid Common Man - 'fakhar hai'!
Again me here.
Today on something very much 'relevant' for me as well as some other people around. Right? - Please keep yours hand up those who think themselves like the picture attached. Don't worry ... nobody is looking at you. So come on ... late is better never (not to become obsess).
You know - obesity now-a-days becomes a global phenomenon. If you put a search on google, - you'll get the idea. And it perfectly cites all the reasons, precautions, treatments, rehabilitations & all. However this is not exactly for re-citing those. Rather let me put here what all I understand, in a nutshell, from those stuffs.
Basically let us first admit straight forward that our live is now very much tranquil than our predators. Just imagine, what they were used to do for their live and what you do! They have to climb the tree for an apple (apple is always symbolic of some unmentioned seemingly naughty stuffs Adam did to Eve with her full consent, I hope). And we need to, at most, open a fridge door. And think of the work-done they've to embrace for saving money at zero percent interest (those days were always zero-coupon rate days anyway): first need to find out a suitable place, dig out the soil, cut some leaves, wrap the belongings into those leaves, place those inside the holy hole and (may be) invent some labyrinthic rhymes for successors to get it out. Off ..... can't imagine. And now ..... just a few clicks (four clicks + 2 drop menu for HDFC online FD account opening) @ 9% interest! Just thumps down dear!
Now come about food digest systems of human body. Our knowledge in forms of science makes progress leaf and bound with respect to food, specially synthetic foods. However the God, if any, lacks a bit. Hence He (assuming God is masculine, mail me if not) fails to make evolve the human body so much. So our body system keeps themselves in the era of oldies, whereas our habits progress to the era of Six Abs Packs. Plus the ever reducing of the physical activities. Result ? - Intake becomes quite disproportional to the Consumption. And so storage in forms of fat in all places of the body resulting the picture attached earlier.
There is no point in believing that Obesity is driven by genetic code and so it's beyond our control. This is a bogus logic. Actually it's been proven that a genetic adjustment takes centuries to evolve, whereas Obesity, in other hand, becomes a global issue in just last 3/4 decades! It's true often Obesity gets manifested among family members. But this is more of leading almost same habitual life related to lifestyle, eating habits, sleeping habits & all for members of same family. However these is some links of BMI wrt. the Obesity.
So ......... remedy? - Try to answer USA President Jr. Bush'es comment about BIG eater Indians with a swift answer 'NO'! What else? - Because I know you will never wake up in early morning for a brisk walking of 45 mins / 5 days a week.
Best Regards,
Obsess Pradip
Statutory Warning: Those who're not spirited enough to kill their times, should leave now.
Blogging ... Blogging .... Blogging ... about my fav passion ...... stock market. This time I will present a nice picture which depicts the last 6 months Gold vs. Equity tallies. Please refer to the picture besides.
The red one is the BSE Sensex ... representing the Indian Stocks. And the blue one is the cost of 1 grm of Gold ... in it purest form. I'm taking one particular Gold ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) where 1 unit represents one gram of pure gold. And what you find is exactly a Sash - Bahu relationship .... completely complementary to each other. Isn't it dear? See all the ups and downs ... they're almost opposite to each others. That's amazing to me .....
So now the question is : if somebody holds both of equal amount? - Please send me the reply dear at my email id.
Waiting for your reply .....

Aha .... Reminiscence are always sails smooth .. be it about how she looked when I first met her, be it the very first day of my daily passengering. Actually it was 26th August of 1996. And then ...... 12 years are passed by ........ lots happens across the world, a new bridge has been there over Ganges besides old Bally Bridge, got a new connector from Bally to Dumdum breezed just in 20 mins ... however nothing is as divine as daily passengering via 8:55 Dankuni local from Bally Ghat Station to Bidhannagar .... 5 times a week for last 12 years. And 2008 is my year of celebrating the 12th year of daily passengering, promotes me to chit-chat here. Hope you don't mind.
I can still remember the very first day of my journey ... a day when for the first time, I moving out of my locality for educational purpose to JU-2nd campus. Imagine your first day in an engg college ... the obvious picture will be a nervous face, for the possibility of ragging. Our induction was scheduled at 10:20 a.m. So I need to catch 8:55 train. And that becomes my lifeline for the next 12 years till date. I'm really really passionate about daily passengering ... some time it is difficult ... annoying .... depressing ........ yet by a large extend ..... this is superb experience. Why? - simply because this is probably the only place where I can hear the 'voice of people'. I just love to hear what people says about all the recent topics ..... from politics to play to policies to economics. And if you compile all the sayings, you'll get a perfect view of the Incredible India. Believe me .... it's not smooth ride, yet it has other facet which I njoy the most. I just lov it ................
Lots of chit-chat .... however let me turn my face to a bit serious ... basically I've a few proposals of how the reform should be done in Indian Railways ..... such that going forward more & more people can write such trash blogs .... rite?
- All local trains must be of 12 compartments
- Indian Govt should only maintain the tracks, not trains. Rather private players should be allowed to run trains .... much like Indian air space .....
- Indian Railways must be make Public Ltd .....
Pardon me for such a bhat .... and thanks for reading it ....

Hey All ....
This is Pradip ..... a name given by my parents. So I'm not sure what is the implication of this name, neither really interested to. And this is my first blogging. I think everybody should do everything, at least once in life. Everybody should at least go to a Mandir at least once in life, go to a football field, to a disc, to a race-course, to Singur .... and .. and all places under the Sun (assuming you're not some aspirants like Kalpana Chawla, Right?). And so I'm here .... just to blog.
I'm now 30 ... I think a ummmm age ..... really! It's an age when you suddenly feel that you've almost spent/lost/sailed half of your life ....... and still there are sooooooooooooooo many things you're not aware of!!! You don't know what is called six pack abs, you don't know what is the name of the president of Guatemala, you don't know how nuclear treaty is dangerous for India, you know know how to become a good husband, you don't know how to become a good supervisor (in work), you don't know how to mix up with younger generation, you dont know what all you need to know!!! And a stupid man --- you've missed 30 years in your life ... shit!!!!!! Go to Hell Man ................. (At least I know I'm a man)
Now some of my friends are a regular blogger ..... not me till yesterday. But with this, I'm at least able to put one 'dont-know' to river Ganges ..... I'm a blogger now ....... lol ..... hope that some pretty faces will read this blog :)
By the way, - I'm always all 'don't know' as 'don't care'.
Just Chillax
Pradip
