In today’s balance sheet – IPL Final is just a FOOT NOTE!

26^th May 2013: supposed to be IPL final and instead the focus is on the controversies; be it spot fixing, betting, arrests and many more.  

IPL was a monster which was created by BCCI. 

It all started with players being involved in spot fixing but the real blow on the face came with owners involvement – they say, it’s just a tip of iceberg…  if this is so ugly, then dare you imagine the reality. 


Cricket in India is considered as religion and if spot fixing by the players was outright betrayal then with owners, celebrities and top authorities involvement in fixing / betting is nothing but a crime against religion!

The ultimate question which one encounters more often than not is back on the door step – What is in it for me? 

Not once the sponsors, organizers, the who’s who of Indian Cricket would have thought in wildest of their dreams that in Cricket crazy Nation Cricket itself would take a hard hitting!

It’s time to clean up the sport once and for all, and if not now then God save Indian Cricket!

ACTUS NON FACIT REUM NISI MENS SIT REA.

Credibility can be restored. But, what about the betrayal?

IPL – is a Money making institution. Respective franchise owners, players, broadcaster, media, advertising agencies, five star / seven stars hotels, ground staff each one involved directly with the sport was walking with a smile until once again the spot fixing saga shocked the biggest beneficiaries – Fans across who have loved the Game of Cricket to the core.

Billions were betrayed yet again for few lakh of Rupees…

Two of them were promising new comers, one was a member of world cup winning squad. All three however, had one thing in common

They were old enough to know right from the wrong!

They were young enough to have lot of cricket left in them!


And yet, the got hooked to the biggest evil of all – Money!

The law will take its course. Lawyers of those accused will thrive on biggest wepon “Innocent until proven guilty”

But after going through number of evidences which Delhi police have presented so far, one can’t help but think… of Mens Rea - “ACTUS NON FACIT REUM NISI MENS SIT REA”

THERE WAS A MIND AT FAULT BEFORE THERE WAS A CRIME!

The mind for one knows –

 

The game which has shown Sreesants have also shown the Dravids… but heart will it overcome the betrayal?

Will he be Sharif?

Relation with Ex for one could be neutral but ever since partition every effort to establish good ties with Pakistan have always gone in Vain…. (Mostly from there side) 

The polls in Pakistan said it was historic election for the People of Pakistan as nation went out to elect its new Prime Minster.

The top contenders running for the post were Imarn Khan’s Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaaf, Yousaf Raza Gillani’s Pakistan People Party and Nawaz Sharif’s Pakistan Muslim League (N)

Well the polls said it is Nawaz Sharif who have won and all set for third time as PM.

On number of occasion through the interviews prior to election Mr. Sharif said he’d like to see good relationship building with two countries.

More of trades and less of terrorism..

Well going by the History…. One would say there’s less of hope but, hey who knows the Man would just stand by his Name.

Congratulations Nawaz Sharif, may you bring peace, harmony not just in your country but India as well. 

Faceless in life, remembered in death!

Who were these Men?

Till couple of days back men, women, boys, girls, black, white, Hindus of the world, Muslims of the world were unaware of such entities and suddenly death got them the status. 

Media as usual took it to a different level, the college kids and– Human right organizations condemned the manner in which these Men were killed.  


And finally the biggest hypocrites the Government of respective countries – who could have got these Men back alive, got them back in absolute sleep!!

Where was the Government, the Human Right Organizations when families of these convicts were running from pillar to post begging for their safety?  

As many as 1,185 Indians are still serving a lengthy term in prisons across Pakistan. Many of whom are innocent fishermen /sailors.   

Who will ensure their safety?

Will government evertake any cognizance or is revenge, the candle light protests only an answer!

May their souls rest in peace!

25years back a Magic took place! ;-))

Friday…. For over ages been considered the most important day in a life of an actor/(s)!

The fate of an actor largely depends on the day’s outcome… It’s that day which either makes you a superstar or shatters all hopes!!!

They say 80’s was the worst decade for Indian Cinema. The actors who had crossed their prime were still seen doing roles of a chocolate hero. There was violence and movies were unwatchable….

It was during that time on Friday 29^th April 1988 came in movie which made both the actors overnight stars but most important gave Indian cinema a new face.  

Amidst the plot it was this song "Papa Kehte Hain" which introduced young Amir Khan in role of Raj and then introduced a  girl which carried electrifying smile - Juhi in the role of Rashmi. 

QSQT had a romantic storyline and a sad Climax…  The image of Raj running up the hill, killing himself for sake of love is still fresh in the minds of many. It got us in tears then, it bring tears even now!  

Undoubtedly even after 25 years the movie, the songs makes us nostalgic.

"QSQT" had an impact and remains first of its kind, a timeless movie for our generation!!

This one from the movie has been my favourite track for yearsss….

 

 

 

 

Long live "GOOD INDIAN CINEMA!"

 

Silent Assassin.....

How often have we heard of a convict who walked away without any capital punishment in spite of being a Murderer?

RCB V PWI was supposed to be an IPL 2013 outing. But, it actually turned out to be a Murder on a Cricket Ground.

There were tens of thousands who witnessed this carnage and yet the perpetrator named Chris Gayle walked away with applauds from all quarters!!! Gayle set new records in motion – fastest century in the history of professional cricket. 100 in just 30 balls and then followed by 17 sixes which also was a record in t – 20.
Congrats Gayle…

For the rest of IPL franchises – Sodomy against will is also a Rape – Beware!
