Dirty Harry

It is the place of heathenism and superstitious rites.Yes,it is ur world!For me,the only hope to spend many days between inglorious bastards is to see this 'glorious bastard'.Dirty Harry.Sandeep.Hey sandy,everytime ,you have taken me off the guard.But this time,its my turn mate.
If its Brad pitt v/s Johnny Depp,its brad for me and depp for him.If its Guy Ricthie v/s Tarantino,its Guy ritchie for me and Tarantino for him.But if its Snatch v/s Fight club.Its for both of us.Yeah,I used to be a dumb nerd till a couple of years ago but this bastard literally changed the way I see this world!
Here comes, taste and perspective.Both are different.Taste may change from time to time but the perspective,it never change.of course,Your perspective is You literally!This ,I've learnt from dirty harry.Life with Sandy had been something like beautiful passing cloud as if Anurag Kashyap protrays it in Dev D . Inhale.....Swallow......hiss.....hmm.Life's been fast wiht him.Very fast as if something like its in "Requiem for a dream." But that was cocaine.This is Dirty Harry.
Guys,remember Javier Bardem in "No country in old men"?Fella fed up with heck kinda people .dong what he wants and just moving on with his life,i m sorry,moving on with his gun eh? This is sounding like I am just comparing him with many characters I've watched in cinema.....but I MEAN IT.
Crushing his so called 'little soldiers of death' with helpless rage but never regrets it.Best part of him,that is. 'Paul Newman' in 'cool hand luke'
Always been in some sort of ambiguity whether 'Am I blessed or cursed with him'?I dont exactly remember for what he had gone for with Ashok.But I finally found myself that "I AM BLESSED WITH HIM".....

The Alchemist v/s Will

Had been into this confusion ever since I read 'the alchemist'.Destiny v/s will power.The alchemist strongly believes that 'if you really dream of achieving something,the whole universe conspires to achieve it'.He believes in 'omens'.The signs.He acts according to the God's will.Even in 'Godfather',Don Corleone believes that every man has one destiny.An artiste cannot become a mafia man,he supposed.This one completely contradicts with Adi dassler's statement-'Impossible is nothing'.But personally,I found it very hard against my conscience.At the end of the day,I should lay down in my couch with my heart contented with the work I had done that particular day.
What if I am destined to become something when I dreamt of becoming something else?Should I convince myself that this is what I meant to beor Should I fight with destiny with the help of my will to become what I wanna?
Dont know!

FREE THINKING

The output current from terminal drives the way of........This was what going on 'electronics' class when I was thinking of 'free thinking'.In my sense,its all shit.What the heck would I do with transistors and resistors in my life?Watched 'Wake up Sid' yesterday.Liked it for just one reason.Sid could clearly say that he's not interested in office ,job and all..
Coming to free thinking,I always owed great respect to free thinkers(infact great thinkers).As far as I know,free thinking means ,if some thought arises in our mind,a normal person puts a check to it after going to a certain extent,but some one like Sree Sree,would see the limits we never expect to exist even!Of course,he is no more.Few are Vivekenanda,Einstein,J.K.Rowling....amny more people.
I admire J.K.Rowling even though I ahte Harry Potter(sorry for being so harsh,harry potter fans!),because she just instills confidence and free thinking in children who doesnt know the limits of practical applicability.IGNORANCE IS BLISS.For adults,who come across Harry Potter,it sounds silly for them to fly just sitting on a broomstick,but,you know what,for children,it says that they can do anything they wish.Thats terrific feeling of splendour.
One of the fields that got and getting a lot of backing by free thinking is 'technology'.Might be people in 19th century would never have imagined they would speak to their loved ones lively(or) they would reach a far destiny within matter of hours.But free thinkers Davinci thought.I would like to discuss one interesting incident that happened with Davinci at his time.He just thought and believed stronglythat even man would fly like birds in the sky someday and he even sketched some imaginary vehicle carrying people through the sky.His friends laughed at his thought.But what had happened in 1904?The first aeroplane took off the green fields in northern America between the amazement and thunderous applause of white skins.
Thoughts are powerful.And if something 'free' adds to it,it becomes unstoppable literally.But the sad part is every person is capable of thinking so,but seldom know it.
I overheard somebody saying something worthy about Sree Sree.He just used to immerse in his thoughts,smoking by just sitting at his home and jotting his thoughts on paper.those were 'free thoughts' which hardly knew any limits.I would buy them for money if at all,those pieces are available,unlike downloading stuff from web(stealing infact.....lol)
Even music.Thinking has got its place in it.Many artistes say that they connect with the Almighty through music.I dont know whether its ture with all the musicians but beautiful music comes out when one thinkfreely leaving behind all the barriers.That one's for sure!
THINK FREE ! !

CONNEXIONS

After all,man is a social animal.The connections he have are developed as a result of intimacies he possess with other 'animals'.As of what I have been thinking for a long time,a person to exist in the race of supremacy,say ,success is putting his relations at cost of it.I am very sorry to say that.Introverts,who cant mingle easily with other people,atleast expect to have 1 meal a day with their family.How could it be possible?Their wants are becoming desires.There's lot of difference b/w want and desire.Want is a basic need.Desire....?You guys know that...
In the writs of Indian authors,loads of emphasis has been laid on relations and connections.Earlier,a family meant 2 consist of atleast 4 people.That looked pretty cute.In the fuckin' name of 'urbanization'everybody,everything has lost its grace,glory.Now,sorry for that,if at all one member of a family expires,come on,who cares?mourning for a couple of days(may be forced) and getting on with their lives as usual.Even I agree with optimists' argument of getting on with lives no matter what happens as a course of time.And even everybody have developed the confidence of living on their own terms and they are just cultivating 'damn!who cares?' attitude.Its obviously good partially living on one's self terms without any support and the attitude matters a lot.Its affecting relationships,of course,in a bad way.Living on their own feet doesnt mean they dont need a family anymore.At the end of the day,every person need somebody to share their achievements,griefs and all.Everything. Of course,its beautiful to end a long working day with a glass of wine(as people say,I am not into it....rofl!) in the company of atleast two worthy friends.But sorry to say this again,they are friends ,after alll.
I admire my mom a lot for her strong belief in human connexions.She talks a lot about realtionships.But the beautiful part is,'she walks her talk'.She'll be always ready to make new friends,which is not at all possible with me.She finds it soothing to get wished 'good morning' by her always-a-new-friend whom she made friendship with,in the walking in the park,the previous evening.
People are becoming too busy to hold long term relationships these days.It sounds beautiful to encounter an old friend of ours almost after a decade with a sparkle smile on both of the glad faces.aint it?But now,who remembers whom?If I am asked,I always find it very refreshing to meet Sandy atleast after 1 month of our previous meeting in Blue Bird Cafe(B.B.C,as we lovingly call it as) over a cup of hot Irani chai.I feel elated that I've met one of worthy friends I have.Even ,same is the case with Sirish,Raghav,Rohith and Anirudh.
It might be stale pizza or a cold coffee,but sharing it with our 'connexions'.....oh my God....it tastes awesome.At the end of your life,if you turn out to be a billionaire and you've got no one to share your reminiscences,even then you gonna die poor! Take care mate!

MUSIC

Which evokes a new energy always can be absolutely considered as 'Energy resource'.Oh my God...All I need is music and thats it.Loads of new music is getting into me these days.Of course,those are not new releases.But I am pretty new to 'em.Coming to Bob Dylan,after Sirish told me to lend an ear to Bob,which i reluctantly did,to my surprise which was xpected usually,it was superb.
"The answer my friend....is blowing in the wind". What a number.The freaky,raw voice of Bob Dylan is my new choice.Not becuase of people's influece on me,but I am getting into an entirely different kind of stuff.I never hesitated to held the pride of admitting that I am a guy with so much endowment into Carnatic music.I am wrong.All I know about the artistes BMK,Sikkil brothers (flute),Priya sisters(carnatic vocals)and yeah,of course M.S.Subbalaxmi.......never ending,atleast I hopefully guess.But I feel very sorry for limitng myself to few renowed 'kritis' of them.Lately,I am lucky enough to listen many more works of many artistes.Literally,I couldnt find words.Lots of music.I,hardly know a particle i it.
And yeah,hopping into kinda 'desi' stuff(donno exactly whether I can use that word),its Rabbi.Definitely bcoz of Sirish's impact on me.I heard of him quite a several times.I only used to know about 1 song of him.."Bulla ki jaana main kaun"..Even that too because of that track's video which includes "Charminar"(meri jaan).But guys,just put some skin into his compositions.Philosophy,Dark comedy,Sarcasm....everything....I dont know..rofl..rofl!!
He just makes sure,he presents all above in each of his compositions.
I just didnt understand about what Ashok bhai(sandy's brother) said regarding "refined soul of music".But,of late,I am just getting to know about what he said and meant.
How can I forget MaestroIlayaraja?Ever heard his guitar?Breathtaking.Simple and great.Many people find it embarassing to say that they hear a lot of regional music.Nothing wrong .I heard Maestro's recent(of course,not too recent) work in Telugu "Malle puvvu".Beautiful as usual.As Sandy puts it this way "Miss 'em and you sin".Loads of music I guess.
John Denver,Mike Oldfield,Bryan Adams,Hillary duff,Roop Kumar Rathod......

All I need is Music......
THANX RA BAWA(ADITYA)....FOR GIVING ME SUCH A WONDERFUL MUSIC IN YOUR PLAYER....FRIENDS FOR EVA'........CHEERS ! ! !
