Podcast - Bus Kahani Hai

Image
T his post is dedicated to introducing my Podcast - Bus Kahani Hai . I have made this podcast with an intention to connect to people through my voice. This is not only a means of sharing my views and stories with the world but is also a medium to talk to myself.   A podcast is a good medium to connect with people as it does not demand the attention of your eyes; all it wants from you is to lend your ears. Often when you are commuting on a bus or in a metro, listening to a podcast can be a great idea: All you need is an earphone and bingo! My Podcast - Bus Kahani Hai has a Trailer as an introduction and episodes that are published from time to time. All the episodes so far have been archived below with dedicated links for one-click listening. Also, it is my humble request to leave your valuable feedback and comments on this post or on my  Instagram page   https://www.instagram.com/neoimaginations/     Twitter handle  Bus Kahani Hai              Latest Episodes Episode 4 : Khidki Ke Baa

A Shade of Life

Image
I just sneaked out through the curtains of my bedroom to see if it was too hot to go out.  All I saw was this beautiful scene through my window. Two tired women labourers having a siesta on the construction site after hard laborious work for hours before lunch. As the sun was straight up, all they could manage was a little shade of the adjacent building. Atleast the dead building had some alive mercy for them. All day they fill concrete mortar with the spades lying next to them and carry it to build houses that they would never inhabit. Once the construction gets over the security guard would not even allow them to stand outside its gate to admire their own sweat and blood.   They would be clearly outcasted from its premises. The people who would enjoy the luxuries and comforts of this apartment building would not let these poor women to even enjoy an eye full sight of the legacy they built baking under heat and dust. These women would go into oblivion on the very first day the

The Tradition must continue...

Image
I always grew up with the idea that whatever we get from the world should be duly returned to society to complete the cycle of gratitude. I would not credit this piece of thought alone to my parents but also to those numerous good people who invested a lot of physical efforts to make it pragmatic for me. There is more we learn through books than we see it happening in reality. If all the good moral values were just a part of good books, nobody would have believed it amply to follow it in real life. But God gifted me with people worth emulating a lifetime. I was in IX std and Mr. & Mrs Saju were newly wed couple. Their interaction with my father prompted them to call me for guidance in English language. They were Malayali couple and had excellent command over English language. They dedicated one hour in the evenings to teach me English and never allowed me to return the favour through any means. One Alam Uncle too impressed by my performance in the school offered me to teac

Bigg Boss 7 -- Angel Devil Saat Saath

Image
Come 15 th September 13 and the TV would get its most doted reality show BiG BoSS season 7. The last season 6 was certainly alag 6 (che) with Imam doing his Insaaniyat-Hewaaniyat drama. However, cunning Urvashi Dholakia  took the trophy home. But it was Imam Siddique, the guy who took the show to its peak with his weirdest wits and acts . He was either hated or loved but never ignored. Seems his Devil -Angel side was such a show winner that season 7 made this dichotomy as their promotional theme.                                                        The show is the most anticipated shows of the year with high speculations and gossips on contestants. Like always this time too the list of contestant is secret. But here I bring to you the most talked about picks as contestants of Bigg Boss 7.  1. Amisha Patel 2. Smriti Irani 3. Poonam Pandey                     4. Sreesanth 5. Cyrus Broacha  6. Aditya Pancholi 7. Bharti 8. Pratyusha Banerjee 9. --------------- 10.--

The RayBan Effect

Image
Rayban Aviator (Photo credit: j_bouzas)      Nothing compares to a pair of RayBan Aviators. The intoxication and addiction of this eye gear is better not explained. I am also a part of this addiction. Close to 12 years of association with it, I never dared to wear anything other than a RayBan. It would be sacrilegious for me to wear anything else. That is my love for  the Aviators like million others.                                                                        A week back I was in Jaipur for a couple of days with my wife. As the sun became slanting towards the evening we decided to go to Jal Mahal ( Lake Palace ) a nearby destination from my Hotel.  I intelligently kept my DSLR in a laptop bag to avoid Autowala taking us for tourist and inflating the fare. But Mr. RayBan Aviator was at work to cool my eyes.  The very first Auto Rikshaw guy I encountered on my way offered me a fare of  Rs 200. Now 200 rupees is whoo
