who knows what type of people they were whose love received love

who knows what type of people they were whose love received love
whenever I asked for flower buds I got garlands of thorns

every companion parted from me after travelling just a few minutes with me
who has the time to hold the hand of some one who is crazy in love

I found even my shadow uninterested in me
whenever I asked for flower buds I got garlands of thorns

If this is called living then I will live it this way
I will not sigh, I will sew my lips, I will drink my tears

why be scared of sorrow, I have received sorrow thousands of times

Lunch Lunch Lunch

Lunch Lunch Lunch........Last week I brought lunch Mon-Thur because it was Passover. But Friday I didn’t bring a lunch. Luckily I was saved – a group of friends wanted to go out and I would have done that (for social reasons) rather than eat a lunch I had packed.

Monday bole to today I didn’t pack a lunch so I had to get a salad (not too expensive) from the cafeteria. But the worse part is that I forgot to bring snacks. So I had to use the vending machine.For shame. (marta na to karta kya ?)

I’ll try to do better the rest of this week (already have plans to go out with friends today evening… :-)

Enjoyed Ice Gola at Chowpatty

The soaring temperatures in Mumbai can get to you, especially if you are traveling during noon. we were so dehydrated and I get really cranky in this heat. So the instant option to cool off was having a gola (ice slush) at Chowpatty beach. 

The gola wala had many new flavors, cocktail, chocolate with milk maid, eec, so we thought of trying out the chocolate one. First he put the big block of ice in the machine to crush it, then he gathered the crushed ice with both his hands, made an oval shape and pushed a wooden stick through it.

Then he slowly added milkmaid around it, my mouth was watering profusely at that time, then he placed the gola in a cup and added herscheys to it, whether its the real chocolate syrup I don't know as long as it tastes good, then he sprinkled chocolate pieces on it and I took the glass from his hand, before Clyde could.

Then it was simply fantastic, I slurrped the chocolate flavored ice with milk, and I began to feel better and the smile was back on my face.

Then the gola wala made the regular kala khatta for us, mixed with lime, salt and pepper. That was refreshing too, as you can see in the picture.

You need to keep sucking the syrup to get the complete taste of it, and you can feel your body cooling down. Having a gola is no fun without your fingers, mouth and tongue catching the colour of the syrup, you need to keep turning it so the ice doesn't break. If your syrup gets over, the gola vendor is generous enough to add some more syrup.

Its not too expensive either, Kala Khatta was for Rs 15, you can get it for less than Rs 10 in a small town or village and the chocolate gola cost Rs 30. So the gola slurping came to an end, we finished off all the chocolate syrup, but kala khatta was left. We happily started to walk away and forgot to pay the gola wala until he called us out.

If you go to a gola wala, make sure to try the chocolate flavor!

hope to write more and more,we are going to alibaugh in day or two.

till then keep smiling!! TATA

8 days and counting

I looked at a calendar today realized that Christmas is 8 days away. How did it sneak up on me like this ? The last 3 weeks have been a whirl-wind at work-- and somehow just because others are decorating for the holiday, it doesn't sink in that I should participate in this holiday too.

ye to bas main hoon

ye to bas main hoon ke is haal mein bhi zinda hoon
ek main kya abhi aayenge diwaane kitne
abhi guzenge mohabbat ke taraane kitne
zindagi tumko sunaaegi fasaane kitne
kyoon samajhti ho mujhe bhool nahi paaogi
khwaab kyoon dekhoon wo kal jispe main sahrminda hoon

Flora By Night!!

Flora Fountain, is an architechtural beauty. Have clicked many a pictures of this structure during daytime. Clicking at night was a disaster many a times before this, but not this time. I always thought that without a tripod, clicking this structure would be well nigh impossible, and it was wierd in a way cos all that was needed was a bit of stability. Got the right technique this time. Next time will try clicking it from the divider of the BSNL bldg.

Through the rods!!

Mumbai skyline has been done to death in many pictures. I tried to capture the same through a different perspective. After having traversed from Marine Lines to Girgaum Chowpatty i was tired, but from Chowpatty i saw a view point up in the hills of Walkeshwar which i thought would give me a great panorama of the beach from a height. Onwards to the road, i thought of relaxing near the memorial there. I dnt exactly remember what it was. In front of me were the rods through which all the buildings along Nariman Point and Marine Lines were visible. I thought of composing the image through the rods of the barricade. the result divides the picture into two halves, the upper half showcasing Point in its grandeur and the lower half showing dirty shore of the beach. Mumbai in its two prominent avatars!

Main aur meri black coffee aksar yeh baatein karte hain :-)

i  just reached home,headed straight for the kitchen,got myself a black coffee with sugar and sat down to blog, and looking at the coffee i realised i can be quite adaptable when need be:-) i wanted to have  tulsi ginger herbal black tea, but at work after trying everything on the machine, i chose black coffee and when i am travelling or visiting people i don’t create any fuss and have coffee or tea with milk or whatever…though normally i need to avoid milk and milk products as i am mildly lactose intolerant…sunane mein kitna bhaari bharkam lagta hai na?  believe me i realised this problem after suffering from stomach aliments for years and years…

you guys must be wondering where is all this going? actually nowhere, by now you guys must have realised i have the habit of writing exactly what i am thinking…:-) so this was another random thought that came to me…

Milte hain fir kisi roz…till then TATA 

Dil Mein Phir Aaj Teri Yaad Ka Mausam

Woh bheege baal woh bheega badan,woh bheegi bheegi har dharkan
Woh gaal haya mein doobe hue,wo hont wafa se larze hue

Dil mein phir aaj teri yaad ka mausam aaya ,phir mere seene mein tu dard daba dam laaya
Jab bhi saawan koi barsa mujhe mehsoos hua,ishq ke dariya mein tu mujhko bhigone aaya

Kya ab bhi tumhari furqat mein ek saawan koi likhta hai?
Kya ab bhi tumhare honthon par ek chumban koi rakharta hai?
Kya abb bhi tumhare shaanon se malmal ka dupatta girta hai?
Kya ab bhi tumhari baahon meiek dil sa koi rehta hai?

Main tumko soch raha hoon bass,tum mujh mein doobti jaati hoon bass
Main tum mein doobta jaata hoon bass,tum mere shane se lag karkaan mein kuchh kehne waali ho
Tum mere khwabon ki duniya ki ek samundar si shehzaadi ho

Dil mein phir aaj teri yaad ka mausam aaya...........

Weekend par mumbai darshan

Saturday is one day which is well and truly off for me, as mon-fri 10am-6pm,i live a frenzied existance…:-) yeh bhi karna hai,woh bhi…

so today morning went to inorbit and hyper city in malad…i think its very strange and funny that we  mumbaikars have started treating malls as our favourite getaway…AC mein jaake majaa, food and shopping, everything rolled into one…and i ended up discussing how the mall and department store culture is coming up even in cities like Lucknow etc…and how visits to such malls are detrimental to our wallets, as you do always end up  buying extra stuff just like that…

i forgot to add that  i also went once again to visit the shoe house in hanging gardens,and the ferozeshah mehta uddyan near malabar hills…phir siddhi vinayak aur haaji ali toh maine kaafi baar darshan kiye, but in evening i visited Juhu and marine drive fir braborne stadium restaurant me garma garam chai pe,,,

chalo yaar,abhi ke liye itna hee…par i want to thank all of you guys who have made an attempt to read my blog…

Kyun pyaar ka mausam beet gaya,Kyun Zamana humse root gaya!!

Yeh Hosla Kaise Jhuke,Yeh Aarzoo Kaise Ruke Manzil Muskil To Kya,

Bundla Sahil To Kya,Tanha Ye Dil To Kya

Raah Pe Kante Bikhre Agar,Uspe To Phir Bhi Chalna Hi Hai,
Saam Chhupale Suraj Magar,Raat Ko Ek Din Dhalana Hi Hai,

Rut Ye Tal Jayegi,Himmat Rang Layegi,Subha Phir Aayegi

Yeh Hosla Kaise Juke,Yeh Aarzoo Kaise Ruke
Hogi Hame To Rehmat Ada,Dhup Kategi Saaye Tale,
Apni Khuda Se Hai Ye Dua,Manzil Lagale Humko Gale

Zurrat So Baar Rahe,Uncha Ikraar Rahe,Zinda Har Pyar Rahe

Yeh Hosla Kaise Juke,Yeh Aarzoo Kaise Ruke

I LOVE MY BIRTHDAY DAY!

I LOVE MY BIRTHDAY DAY! Of course my mom used to tell me "you won't be broadcasting your birthday when you get older"! I was in my 18's at the time..Now I am 28 ! I do not broadcast too much!

BUT I still love my birthday day. she should have remembered! i dont know whether she has got datebook/personal calendar for her birthday.

But I love birthdays! I am hurt!

I am turning 28

When I was a child I used to look forward to my birthday. It was a day of slack and presents and afterwards I got to brag to everybody that now I wasso-and-so old. Being older automatically meant being cooler and I wished that my next birthday would come soon. But it didn't. The years seemed like life times, and every day brought a new experience.

But now the things have cum to such apassss........

Everyday feels like it's the same, repeating over and over till eternity. My last birthday seems like it was yesterday,It is, though, and there is nothing I can do about it. I can't rewind time, I can't make it go slower.

In the sit-coms they always have the episodes about the day before one of the characters turn 30 and they panic about all the things they didn't get to do and they try to learn German and how to play the guitar in 24 hours. I
didn't think I'd ever be like that, but I find myself thinking: "What have I achieved in my life?" The answer? NOTHING. At least nothing more than the minimum that could be expected,That's it. I don't have a girlfriend, I don't have a good accomodation, I live in a shitty apartment.

And now I'm growing old. Before I know it, I'm gonna be 28,still chasing after 22-26 year-old girls,And at that time I won't even be able to GET with the girl because they want the 20-year-old guys who look good and dress smart like... Well... Like me. ha ha ha ha

Mein Aur Meri Awargi

Phirte Hain Kab Se Dar-ba-dar,Ab Is Nagar Ab Us Nagar,Ek Doosre Ke Humsafar,Main Aur Meri Awaargi
Na Aashna Har Rehguzar,Na Meherbaan Har Ek Nazar,Jaayein To Ab Jaane Kidhar,Main Aur Meri Awaargi
Hum Bhi Kabhi Aabaad The,Aese Kahaan Barbaad The,Hum Bhi Kabhi Aabaad The,Aese Kahaan Barbaad The
Befikr The Aazaad The,Masroor The Dilshaad The,Wo Chaal Aesi Chal Gayaa,Hum Bujh Gaye Dil Jal Gayaa
Nikle Jalaa Kar Apanaa Ghar,Main Aur Meri Awaargi

Phir Yoon Huwa Wo Kho Gayi,Aur Mujh Ko Zid Si Ho Gayi,Laayeinge Us Ko Dhoond Kar,Main Aur Meri Awaargi
Ye Dil Hi Tha Jo Seh Gayaa,Wo Baat Aesi Keh Gayaa,Kehne Ko Phir Kya Reh Gayaa,Ashkon Ka Dariyaa Beh Gayaa
Jab Keh Ke Vo Dilbar Gayaa,Tere Liye Main Mar Gayaa,Rote Hain Us Ko Raat Bhar ,Main Aur Meri Awaargi!!

Intezar-Aitbaar-Tumse Pyaar!

Darr yeh lagta hai kya yeh sapana hai 

ab jo apana hai kal woh kaha hai 

darta dil pooche baar baar 

intezaar aitbaar tumse pyar itna karu 

aansu aate the laut jaate the 

lamhon pe lamhen chatpatate the 

phir bhi kiya hai intezaar 

intezaar intezaar aitbaar tumse pyar itna karu 

kya pyar hai kya hai nahi maine nahi poocha na 

ho tum mere ya ho nahi  maine nahi poocha 

na poocha nahi baar baar 

intezaar aitbaar tumse pyar itna karu 

ek din aayega tanha reh jaayega 

dost kya dushman kya dhundh na paayega 

maula ke saamne kehta reh jaayega 

intezaar aitbaar tumse pyar kitna karu 

intezaar kitna karu  aitbaar kitna karu  

intezaar aitbaar tumse pyar kitna karu   

chhoti raaten hai kitni baaten hai 

ab jo aaye ho ab batate hai thaamon hamein 

ab ek baar - baar intezaar aitbaar tumse pyar itna karu...

Tere Shahar Me!!

Tere sheher mein aakar ik din chamka taqdaar ka taara!!

awaara mehke hue badan se khushboo si aa rahi hai,mehke hue badan se khushboo si aa rahi hai

jaise pawan kahin par chandan luta rahi hai aankhon se koi dil mein

aise utar raha hai benaam sa nasha hai,raahi tha main awaara

phirta tha maara maara tere sheher mein aakar ik din

chamka taqdaar ka taara rahi tha main awaara,jee chaahta hai mera

koi raat aisi aaye jee chaahta hai mera koi raat aisi aaye

dekhe jo saath hum ko phir laut ke na jaaye main tum se kuchh na bolun

tum mujh se kuchh na bolo khaamoshiyan bhi soche ye kaun si ada hai

raahi tha main awaara phirta tha maara maara tere sheher mein aakar ik din

chamka taqdaar ka taara rahi tha main awaara dekha jidhar jidhar bhi

masti bhari nazar se dekha jidhar jidhar bhi masti bhari nazar se

raahon mein rang chhaaye baagon mein phool barse jaise kadam kadam pe

maikhana khul gaya hai benaam sa nasha hai raahi tha main awaara

phirta tha maara maara tere sheher mein aakar ik din chamka taqdaar ka taara

tere sheher mein aakar ik din chamka taqdaar ka taara raahi tha main awaara!
