I love the drums: It looks so stylish, powerful and sexy..
And watching Rahul Bose behind the Kit is nothing less than a treat for the eyes!!
I have a friend who works for 'The Foundation' -- Rahul Boses NGO -- and she gets to meet him very often .. Phew!! I am so jealous of her :( :(

Bandeya
Found the lyrics of this song from a website, thought of sharing it:
The song is in Saraiki language and it is written by Baba Bulley Shah.
Bulley nu samjhawan aayan behna te bharjaiaan,
Munlay bullehya sada kehna chad de pala rayaan
Aaale nabi Aulade Nabi nu tu kyon leeka laayaan
Jehra sanu Syed saday doozakh milan sazayaan
Raaeen Saaeen subhni Thaeee Rab diyan be parwa yan
Sohiyaan pare hataian te kojiah lay Gul layaan
Jay tu Loray Baagh baharan Chakar ho ja raai yan
Bulley shah di zaat ke puchni Shaakar ho Raziaaan
Bandeyaaa hoooo ,Bandeya
And the story behind it is written below: (picked it up from here)
Actually bulle shah is being asked by his relatives to leave his murshid or guru whom he call as ‘raaean’ or ‘raaniya”
probably that was the caste of his mursheed or peer - hazrat shah anayat which was lower then bulle shahs own caste. every one was after his life to leave his guru.
thats why he explains through this song, who ever calls him sayed( bulle shahs caste) will be punished in hell and who ever calls him raaniya will be showerd with blessings. because for him his mursheed is everything and his caste is now his gurus and in whatever guru orders and decides for him - shakar or raziaan
apne mursheed ki raza mein razi rehna, thats what love is. jo woh khuda deta hai usi mein khush rehna.
this songs itself answers questions of people above saying how can a muslim girl marry a non muslim.
if love is pure truthfull and selfless then its becomes form of god. jab woh khuda, allah kisi caste system ko nai manta , uske liye to sab uske bacche hai to bhai tum kyon mante ho ?
khuda ka saccha aashiq sirf khuda ko manta hai aur kisi ko nai, na kisi caste system ko, na kisi majhab ko.
khuda se saccha ishq karo, ishq hi khuda hai.
*End of explanation*
I loved the film 'Khuda Kay Liye' -- and this song is my current favorite!

1BHK
Today I spoke to an old friend, a friend from college and it was as usual wonderful speaking to her and getting connected.
There are some people who give positive vibes and she is one of them.
But this is not what I want to talk about in this post. Its about something else – its about staying independent – staying alone.
She said she had a good news to share with me – and the good news was really a very delightful one. She moved out of her parents house and has started staying by herself in a 1BHK house close to her workplace. I remember she wanted to do it for a long time and now she finally managed to convince her parents into accepting this and she was telling me that her parents took it wonderfully and really helped her out with setting up her new house. Now isn’t that lovely!
I think everyone should stay alone – by themselves – at least for sometime. It gives a different dimension to their personality. I agree that there are negatives of solitary existence, but I think there are far more goods than bads.
I was discussing this with another friend of mine, and he was telling me that when it comes to places like Delhi / Noida / Gurgaon, perhaps it is not all that easy for a single girl to take up a place of her own and be assured of her safety. And reading about all the dreadful things that are happening these days, I kind of agree with him. Apart from this, I also wonder if there is a concept of 1BHK apartments in Noida and how ready are land lords to rent it out to single people? It is sad to see how difficult it is for a person to live a life of his/her own choice.

Ditches
I reported about this ditch which is at Sakinaka Junction to the local authories and also to a radio channel initiative of getting ditches in mumbai fixed before the monsoons. You can report a ditch by phoning 44104104 (mumbai number) or send an email to divya@fever.fm -- They promised to follow up and inform me about the progress.All of us should try to make a difference instead of just complaining.. Hai naa..
