TV Times

In present Indian society TV has became the main driving factor in people lives.. Gone were the days when families went on picnics and strolling through gardens .. it has become increasingly tough to accomodate these activities into hectic schedule of TV..The schedule is so hectic that it is difficult for all the members of the family to live harmoniously without fighting for the remote atleast once in a day..
I am so sad so say that this runs in my family also..me once upon a time ,victim of this diesease.

Especially the "star pariwar" i feel present a disgraceful picture of indian society and the indian women...
Many will say that these serial show women more powerful and dominating so it is good.But between the illicit affairs,the plans of sabotage,the mind games and "ekta kapoor" knows what not ,these good qualities of women becomes second fiddle..
Almost all the serials involves a huge tycoon family with their many millions, they will have equal number of secrets and problems. Big Bungalows as big as stadium ,women in expensive sarees(they are supposed to be at home for Gods sake) with huge amount of makeup plastered onto them , conspiring to bring down a rival family ...
Tell me how many people can identify with such setting ,it is most ridiculos in a country with most of the people stuggling to make both ends meet..
Then after the prime time is over the endless discussions about with whom the female protoganist will go and what is going to happen next ....is just so hopeless.....

Kingdom of Heaven

“Your soul is in your keeping alone, when you stand before God, you cannot say that I was told by others to do thus, or that virtue wasn’t convenient at the time, this will not suffice.” This is a dialogue from movie Kingdom of Heaven, just watched it yesterday. Amazing movie, it is about Ballion ,a Knight, who saves Jerusalem from attack of Muslims. Jerusalem is called Kingdom of Heaven which is the setting for fierce war between Christians and Muslims. The movie made me think about the “heaven", its past, present and future, and how this land has being place for constant bloodshed and politics. What is so special about this piece of land which makes men fight battles and kill each other. Sure it is a holy place for three religions, thereby place of dispute, but would the Gods of the respective religion would approve of the bloodshed which is going on in their name. In one of my previous posts I said that religion serves as a sink where people could pour their anxieties and compl...

Buy My Book

This was part of our assignment in the class. We had to come up with adverstisement of an imaginary book that we wrote , and speak for 2 mins. ********************************************* Have you heard something like this from your friends? “Hey you know what, I got a super deal from Wal-Mart, the chair you bought for 70 $, I got it for 7$”. U smile and say, How nice, but on inside u r thinking “what the hell”. Well not anymore, I bet u don’t have to worry about these situations anymore. After you read my book “ The essentials of super market ”. I am Aniket, and once like you victim of super markets, always getting bad deals , mocked by my friends and buying stuff that I never used , just because , it was on Sale. Then one day I said to myself Enough!!! . I got down to uncovering truths about these supermarkets. I did odd jobs; like salesman, watchman, even janitors in these stores to understand there working. I went through their catalogs, from point of their incepti...
