Kindness Always.

I was watching 'Lage Raho Munnabhai' again for a change today. I love the movie. It makes me get involved in it. It is one of those set of movies which has made the masses think and change actually act in the real life as showed in it. It famed up and shooted one word in the masses 'Gandhigiri'-the positive way of approching the people doing bad with you or the society. To an extent it worked but then i guess the media hype saturated the genuineness and the aesthetic value of the fantastic concept and the society started taking it lightly, it could have made wonders if it would have been able to preserve its aesthetic value.

Also the Gandhian values, they are also of so much high respect when we understand its simplicity and truthfulness.

Real generosity is doing something nice for someone who will never find out. ~Frank A. Clark

Though there is one factor which i made me think and share it with you was, Gandhigiri, the concept shown in the movie deals only with those who have some problems and doing good to them who are in some or the other way being a misfit with the normal things around them.
But there are so many people who are good at heart, good at helping people, good at work, good at their committments good at everything.. Somewhere deep inside their heart also they feel and await for something good for them. Not only them but in general everyone likes the surprises and good things happening to them anonymously.
But the lack of trust and confidence and the fear of everything just everything around them has weakend them.
Every person without categorizing them into good or bad, doing anonymously good things for them is what we call, Acts Of Kindness and we just dont say it,
We do it!


Try giving ice cream to watchmen, a Parker to your peon, a brand new shirt to your waste picker, give mineral water or cold drinks to the traffic cops standing on the roads.
I have said this before also and still the same without expecting something good happening to you, start doing tiny little good things for everything around you and together we bring the change.



What this world needs is a new kind of army - The Army of the Kind. ~Cleveland Amory

Are You 21 ?

In our daily life we come across various problems which if we decide or challenge ourselves can be easily solved but we don’t and go along with them until it becomes so big that it starts chewing us.

But when the same problem is with things which are so very personal to us or for simple issues like for e.g. some guy coming and proposing your girlfriend and indulge into a duel just for saving your ego!


We don’t have time for things which are of higher concern which cares of a higher responsibility!

For e.g. issues of national concern like poverty and unemployment. (We don’t even care for this two words nowadays isn’t it, cause this has also become a way of increasing sales of Surf Excel and Navneet Notebooks)

Where is the youth which is responsible for making the country better? Oh Yes, they are busy discussing the new cell phones, new cold drinks in the market, girlfriends, cars which they are never going to buy etc….

We say we learn from our history to make things better for today and future!

Young boys of age not more than 23 fighting against an Empire!

We have always considered them as freedom fighters; respect them for what they did but have you ever tried to go behind the mindset of Bhagatsingh??

Bhagatsingh was executed at the age of 24, the age where today we are busy finding jobs on naukri.com, finding a potential wife/husband and some still struggling with their careers to go to main pipelines….

He was one of thousands whom we know who gave his life for country, for freedom!

And here we are, busy saying ‘Kuch toh Karna hoga’ with a Café Frappe in hand sitting inside air-conditioned Café Coffee Day!

We know its already too late, we have to bring the change, Ok yeaah So you already know the problems isn’t it and its too boring to listen to all this crap?


If not more, Start putting in a few hours, say 2 hours a week for something that is of national concern….

2 hours of not scribbling or talking on internet but out on the roads, hardcore under the direct Sun…. !!!

Do it !

Its time to Grow Up and Act as of a Responsible 21 year old Energy Machine of India!!!!

Turn The Tide! They Way YOU CAN!




Change, a little something different for cryin' out loud
Yeah a change
Even for the worse,
it would be better somehow

Sometimes you just cross that line

Where everything is more of the same
When it's do or die, step aside, turn the tide
Somethin's gotta change

Change the way you Think... Change Your Mind's Direction... Change

Dont Think, Talk Or Debate on what You have not chances to Bring a Change...
Think of what you can!!!

For next 2 days almost every citizen of India is going to think about the Cricketers of Srilanka who got attacked in Pakistan.
Anger, Frustration, Fear, Courage, Betrayal, Fight, Cribbing, Sad are some of the emotions which the people will be surrounded with!
Abusive language will be at the highest TRP rate i guess when one will be watching the attack on television news channels and after that because that is the only way and the only thing you can do! isnt it??
There will be debates and talks on what has happened.... Time will passing on listening and reading the quote unquote by the celebrities and politicians what they have to say and then we will be sharing our part of 'masala news' with our families and friends and the one who says more is considered to be concerned and winning the unsaid competition of words......

Tell me something,
What is the minutest thing that you can do in case of this terrorist attack or any other terrorist attack except talking, cribbing and condemning it ?

Let me say this!
WE are incompetent..
We can do nothing!
Yes I am including myself too in it....
Because it is a true damn fact that
We cannot do anything for this.....

But yes i think by luck and unfortunately terrorism is not the only problem we are facing.
We have a wonderful opportunity of ticking on the selection chart of the cause we want to talk on, we want to work on.....

Instead of talking about terrorism or a candle or poster rally,
How does it sound to go to an orphanage and teach some kids ?
How does it sound to go an old age home and talk with them about their childhood?
How does it sound to go and buy a present and gift it to someone anonymous, someone we just dont know?
How does it sound to go and give a traffic policeman a bottle of water, pepsi or an ice cream?

Why to talk complete nonsense, useless crap things which you cannot do.....
I am not telling to be deaf ears and blind eyes towards terrorism...
I am telling is 'sirf baatein karke kuch ukkhhad nai loge' If you think that is called showing concern for a national or a global cause.... Bullshit to it... You're wrong!

Yes We Can!
Obama said it......
But I am telling First you do what You Can!
Do what is in and around you which you can make it Happen!
Do it!
Dont Think!
Just Do it!
