Four Movies I Could Watch Over and Over, and Have
There are many movies but I watch particular scenes from my collection as I recall them. One scene was from movie "Sharabi" when Amitabh go to his father to inform about "Munshi ji's" death. I believe that was Amitabh's peak of acting. Also watched one song and pretty erotic dance of Madhuri in movie "Beta" - dhak dhak kerne laga. Or like last scene from Jack Nicholson's About Schmidt . And many more !!

Words cloud

Teri Bindiya re

Tere Mere Milan ki

Another beautiful love duet

Ab to hai tum se..

What a lovely song !!

Dil-e-nadaan

One of the most mesmerizing song ever sung by Lata.

Ek Pyar ka naghma hai

What a touching song from Lata ji. (If you get chance, also hear same song from Jagjeet).

Daughters

God has created daughters so sweet that you love to spoil them and they can get away with anything from their daddy !!

Weakness

Dekho beta ! - kisi ko apni kamzori dikhao ge to woh tumhe aur kamzor karega. Behtar hai apni kamzori pe khud qaabu pao. (Listen son ! - if you will tell your weakness to someone, he will make you more weak. Its better you try to resolve your weakness).

Ramzan Bhai

Ramzan bhai dimagi taur pe thore kamzor the. Woh apni biwi aur do bachhon ke saath hamare mohalle main rehte the. Un ke bachhe hamare hi ghar tuition parha kerte the. Ramzan bhai mohalle main thela lagate the, jis pe kubhi pakore bechte, kubhi bachhon ke khilone aur kubhi kuch. Unhe ye itminan tha ke main apne biwi bachhon ka pet apni kamaii se bharta hun magar suna tha ke ghar ka baqi-maanda kharch un ki biwi ke bhai uthate the. Ramzan bhai ka ye jumla mohalle main mash'hoor tha ke, "mujhe to ghari ki zaroorat nahi magar aate jaate aurtain bachhain time pooch lain to kaam aati hai" - ye jumla unki shakhsiyat ko biyan kerne ke liye kafi tha.

Mohalle main safai suthraii ke liye nayi committee bani jis main mohalle ke nami girami badmaash log shamil hoke mautabir ho gaye, aur Ramzan bhai ko mohalle se apna thela uthane ka ultimatum de diya. Aik khamosh dopher Ramzan Bhai ne pankhe se latak ke khudkushi ker li.

Main jub un ki mayyat main gaya to sufed kafan main noor bhara chehra dekh ke na to mere aansoo nikle na mujhe dur laga. 20 baras se ziyada ka arsa guzar gaya per ab bhi Ramzan bhai yaad aate hain.

Aziz Bhai

Meri umer us waqt koi 13 ya 14 baras ki hogi. Hamare bilkul paros main Aziz bhai rehte the. Aam se sharif se bhole aadmi the. Magar aaye din biwi se jhagarne ki awaz aati rehti thi. Aik din jub aawazain kaafi unchi ho gain to main aur amma un ke ghar main daakhil huwe. Aziz bhai teesri manzil se chalang lagane ke liye tayyar the. Amma ne haat jor ker, minnat samajat ker ke unhe roka. Aaj aik zamana guzar jaane ke baad - I can exactly see how woman can drive a man completely nut to jump from balcony.

Organ donation

Say Yes to organ and tissue donation !!

suli

Aur un do bachhon ki muskurahat ke liye woh zindagi ke aik aik pal maut ki suli pe latakta raha !!

2 kinds of people

There are 2 kinds of people in this world.

1. Who seeks 'enjoyment' from life.
2. Who seeks 'satisfaction' from life.

Its better to be in second group.

E-mail

FM rightly said: "In professional world e-mail is like a sword" - use it with responsiblity and caution.

parent

One another thing which makes it hard for you to be a parent that sometime your kids embarrass you in front of others but you have to take the responsibility or may even endup justifying it !!.

old age

Jub burhape main kisi shaks ko roti kamane ke liye ghar se nikalna pare to bara dukh hota hai. (Its heartbreaking to see an old man to come out of house to work for the sake of livelihood.)

Beyond the Lines

In your professional world, beaware:

1. Where your boss is talking to you,
2. What your boss is talking to you, and
3. Why your boss is talking to you.

Obesity

Out of all diseases obesity is the biggest curse. Fight it !!

San Francisco

Yes its worth !!, living in San Francisco. Beautiful place and more than that good people !!. You never feel like outsider.

One Question

At the end of the day, only one question is important - Was my day worthed ?. And similarly, at your deathbed, only one question would matter: "Was my life worthed?" - "Did I make influence, help, was I important or did I make difference to any single life?"

Instructions

He instructed his daughter 2 things on her wedding:

1. In our eastern culture atleast so far, man get known in society by his work of living and first question woman get asked is about her husband.

2. If girl play her cards properly, she can have 2 houses - of her parents and of her husband otherwise process of marriage might leave her without any sense of home. It all depends on her own behaviour and attitude.

New Year

Should I celebrate new year ? When thousands of people on this planet are dying of various reasons or living a life of dead.

How this day is different from other days except in calendar.
