The Ghazal king left us...

for last half an hour i am trying to write something about my all time favorite Ghazal singer Jagjit Singh. but some lines are coming out from my mind that i unable to link properly. this is really a personal loss for me. i really can't believe Jagjit Singh is no more with us. We will never get any new gajal from his majical voice.

today was a very busy day even i didn't watched the news. now only when some sound of radio was coming from ground floor i was thinking why they are concentrating on ghazal only. but i was happy also that they are only playing Jagjit Singh. then the thought came in my mind is he alright? because he was hospitalized for many days. and my thought was right.....i really cant believe this........

his songs gave me my first love. i was crying when my hubby (at his teenage) send me some CD of Jagjit Singh and i really understood how deeply he loves me. The songs of Jagjit Sings was like getting my first proposal for love...Jagjit Singh is the reason for whom I got my first love.....

we really wanted to attend a live programme and wanted to tell him this story to him. i dont know with how many thousand life he is attached like this through his Ghazals....

  

Puja countdown started with Mahalaya

Can you tell in which day in we search for the radio. yes, at least one day in the year we clean up, repair our radio to listen Mahisasurmardini. from this day our puja countdown starts.

this is the day from when we deny to concentrate in any new project. but this is not the case for me..........:(

I have my PhD thesis viva on Friday. i also have to spend at least one day in puja with my external examiner. ohh god i want to cry....

i really hate to do this but i have to.

anyway, i'll surely manage to spend this bitter days for my upcoming puja vacation. here is the full story of mahalaya. if you don't understand the lyrics at least you will surely enjoy the calm music and wonderful voices.

Rainy day and khichuri....a royal combination...

its all raining and raining...this year monsoon is very strong and is fulfilling our life as well as the field, roads, drains, railway tracks...water harvesting is not required if every year rain bring such blessings...but floods are also prevailing in some areas...

any way, i am writing this post after looong time about the sweet and yummy happenings of monsoon...that is KHICHURI...

if you really want to enjoy the 'borsar khichuri'(Khichri in the days of heavy downpour) you need to come from office with wet cloths, having folded bottom wear up-to knee...but the bad news is i had to cook by myself...for me and for others...i was missing the cooking of mom...any way, its give me immense  pleasure serving some good meal for some happy smiles....

So we decided to do it on rooftop. so, I have a rooftop garden that makes me happy like anything.

Dr. Batra....medicine caused more hair fall.....don't waste your money.......

For last one year i am experiencing extensive hair fall...knowing about Dr. Batra, reputed for hair fall control, i went...the doctors attending you more like medical representative than a dr.....from blood testing to shampoo using they are just doing business...they cant help you to reduce your hair fall but paying their bills your pocket  will surely be reduce in volume:)
so friends...dont make yourself a big fool....never fall in this trap called 'Dr. Batra'........

Zindegi na milegi dobara....dont want to see DOBARA...

I watched the movie this wk end....had much expectations regarding the film....but the film was very slow....scenes were veryyy long....no good script.....this proves what happens when a film with very poor script and some good actors involves....some moment are good and i enjoyed but over all i felt that, the film is about SPAIN TOURISM....we should earn a good amount of foreign revenue from this film :)

A little thing called LOVE...

Recently I watched a movie named A little thing called LOVE . This was a Thai movie having high school romance. today I don't have much time to recap the movie but I want to share a very nice scene...
I loved the movie as it reminds me the days of my school when I was crezy about someone...:)
Lets come to the scene...the heroine Nam was madly in love with a senior student Shone of their school. But, as she was a ugly duckling she could not think that the boy can love him....after a while she became engaged with another boy...
One day when she was on date with her boy friend, she got her leg twisted and her boy friend was carrying her. Shone was also present there and he was carrying Num's bag....she was sooo happy that Shone was carrying her bag.......
This is a very cute and feel good movie and must watch....
