Shhh... I am NOT Sleeping..


Sleep is one thing that i am having a lot of trouble with off lately.
I never get good sleep.
I go green with envy when my friends say that they slept for this many hours and I always wonder how do you guys manage.
I can never say proudly that i get deep sleep.
Actually I got this from my mom cos even she has a lot of trouble sleeping.
Going back a few years from now I used to hate sleeping in my school days.
I always used to feel what if our body wasnt meant to sleep we would have saved so many hours that we waste just lying like a dead body.
I secretly used to wish that i suffer from insomnia so that i get extra time to study in the night. I was a geek then.
Back then i dint know the consequences of becoming an insomniac.
And guess what GOD is actually giving me what i wished for in my schooling days now in my engineering years when i desperately need some good deep sleep.
I dont remember the last time I slept like a baby.
Even the slightest noise wakes me up.
No matter how exhausted I am with the entire day's running and my exciting lectures I still cant sleep instantly.
The Chinese Proverb actually holds true " only when one cannot sleep does one know how loooong the night is."

Its frustrating tossing and turning and changing sides and pillows , switchin the AC on and off.
And I am not in love. lol..
It atleast takes me half n hour to get sleep after i lie down.
I'll read some , then i listen to some music, drink water, take a leak that many times..and finally I get sleep and just when I am fast asleep its my alarm going beep and its already 7?
And I am like wtf i slept like half n hour ago.
Morning is the time i get the most amazing sleep and I just dun wana get up but college.
I know this isnt insomnia I guess I am just turning into a nocturnal animal but still I am missing my dreams that I get when I am fast asleep. :p
I hope it comes back to me again.



Sleep is the best thing God ever made.
Good Night..!!

Freedom to me?


So, 15th august 2009 we celebrate our
62nd year of "independence."

What does independence mean?
not influenced or controlled by others in matters of opinion, conduct, etc.; thinking or acting for oneself: an independent thinker

India got its independence long back. But are we really independent?
Ok fine I know India is a great country. India has diversity and it has variety and it has blah blah blah..
But how has it progressed as a country.

The other day I was discussing how India can never improve.
Ok you are not supposed to brand me as a cynic but its the truth.
What freedom are we talking about?

Freedom from corruption
Freedom from unemployment and recession
Freedom from not having a college even after scoring 95%
Freedom from reservation quotas
Freedom from trying to prove if AJMAL KASAB is a pakistani
Freedom from bombs going off like its diwali
Freedom from insane traffic
Freedom from jam-packed local trains
Freedom from farmers giving up hope
Freedom from the oh-so promising politicians
Freedom from everything that runs this :" money"

I know I am not doing anything myself for the country but I am atleast not doing anything wrong to harm it.
People are dying of breathing these days because of the swine flu.
Instead of providing masks at low cost , we start selling them at 5 times its actual worth.

I've heard this somewhere

"gandhiji apni poori zindagi ahinsa ka paath padhate padhate chale jayege.. aur unke jaane ke baad hamne kya kiya?.. unka photo ahinsa ke sabse bade dushman ke upar chhap diya--- 'paisa' "

India is no doubt a lovely country and even the other countries of the world who consider it as a threat in upcoming years cos sure it is on its way of becoming a super power but still we can bridge that gap of years by working towards making it one.

I know we are lot better than our neighbours and many other countries but mediocrity is not what you want in a country that u live.

So without getting emotional and thinking practically we have too see where we stand and what we are and then chant about the INDEPENDENCE.

Love Aaj Kal Parso Tarso..


I know its very late for a movie review,but i just cudnt get time to write about it and I'll keep it short. I was damn excited about this movie reasons being plenty from deepika padukone to the songs and imtiaz ali the director.
I went for the movie a week later after it released and I was getting mixed responses.
Some would come and say its amazing, some say its mediocre and some say its bakwaas.

I liked it.
The best part about Imtiaz Ali movies is the story he directs are so cliched but still there's a different and fresh feel to it.
Love Aaj Kal is a proper amalgamation of two perspectives of how people used to look at LOVE in 1950's and how its taken to be now.

The movie is worth a watch and dont compare it with JAB WE MET that was class apart.
You cant get a LAGAAN or DDLJ every second friday.
I give LOVE AAJ KAL its credit.
The movie has two different stories at the same time and how they are so similar yet so different.

Saif Ali Khan overacted himself in the suave town boy but played his part well as the sardar but kudos to the marketing brain he chose the perfect timing to get into the production world cashing on the JAB WE MET success.
Deepika Padukone sizzles.
Brazilian chick is pretty.
Rishi Kapoor is ok.
You start liking the songs slowly not at one go.
Ahun Ahun is foot tapping and please wait for the video after the movie its in fact the best part
Ye Dooriya is also a lovely song Mohit Chauhan is on a song these days quite literally.

Overall , go for it. Don't see JAB WE MET in LOVE AAJ KAL and you will like it.

RATINGS: 3/5
