Oh lord, News Channels!!!

On a fine Tuesday morning,
After a KM long jogging.
With a glass of milk in my hand,
I turned on my TV of Samsung brand!

Leeeet's watch some news bulletin now,
Thinking this I switched to zee news, dunno how?
They were reporting on Arushi's case,
Got disappointed with the content, they made!

"This was the IMDI number of her mobile",
"This was the tower number that caught the signal, alright!"
Flashing, it was, all over the screen for a while!
Made me wonder if we need to know this with a smile!

Welcome to Indian News world, I told myself,
I'll never watch these craps, I promised myself!
In the end, I am watching MTV currently,
Atleast they admit that they show crap honestly! :)

New Month, New Work!!!

Hey Friends,

There are quite a few updates over the last one month.

Life hasn't been that bad or lonely since Saurabh left Hyderabad. Not that I don't miss him but it actually helped me in taking my lazy self off my bed and do something constructive.

Firstly, I found myself a km long new jogging track very near to my house. It's BHEL ground that is about 3-3.5 kms from my residence, full of greenery and a skating track. Nice atomosphere!!!


Other than this, I found an indoor baddy court just 300 m from my house. It's good and really good exercise. Hopefully with all these and a gym at my office, I'd be able to reduce a bulky 5 KG off my body soon. :)

BTW, I just can't believe that I missed these awesome sites for the last 3 years!! :O Anyways, better late than never. ;)

Secondly, I won't be wrong in saying that the month of July was a movie month for me. I saw close to 25 movies!!! Man, that's too much for me! I completed the whole Rocky and Rambo series of Sylvester Stallone, every single movie released in the hall, BBC documentaries from Osama Bin Laden to the Creation of the Universe and god know what :P. We had two back to back team outings in the last week. Everytime it was a dinner and a movie. Night at the museum part 2 was fun. I loved the way that Kapoochee monkey slaps Larry. Coming back from it, I downloaded part 1 and saw the same night :D. Our second movie in the outing was Love Aaj Kal. I just couldn't understand what its producers had in their mind while making this movie. This movie is a crap, total waste of money, time and energy. Watch Tom & Jerry instead. It'll be more fun!! ;)

Lastly, my bro started Maple Graph some time back. Thinking, if it's the right time for me to pitch in. :-? There is a lot of work at company. I think the time has come to prioritize stuff and keep moving forward.

A Great Friend - Saurabh Bhardwaj


I am writing this post with a very heavy heart as just about 20 minutes ago I have said good bye to one of my best friend, Saurabh Bhardwaj. It is only when the time comes to actually say good-bye, you realize how good has someone been your friend.

Saurabh is a very dynamic personality, full of only and only positive energy with a lots of ideas cooking in his mind all the time. Last two years of our association has been really great and looking back to those days I can clearly see that I wouldn't have done the amount of social initiatives that I did had he not been there. Together, we founded Sankalp Foundation, completed the course of CSIM and worked on many projects ranging from some work in the stocks market to planting as many as 133 trees in a single day! He is truly an awesome personality with a very focussed mind.

Now that today is his last day in Hyderabad, I don't want to make it too sentimental and I just wish that Saurabh, my friend, may you achieve what you have destined yourself to achieve and may you get success in all your new and future endeavors. Lastly, he said that it was a great association he had with me for two years and hope this association continues later as well. Trust me friend, I also wish the same!

Health is Wealth

Hey Friends,

I am back on blogging! :)

First of all, I'd like to thank Sakshi whom I didn't know a day ago but she somehow has revived my motivation to blog again. :) I don't know her except the normal hello-hi kind of chat on the net but she seems to have the similar interest in fitness as I do (and she is probably doing something for her fitness but I seem to lag here a lot :P).

Anyways, they say that you need to earn only one thing in your life, health. Rest all the other things will follow automatically. True it is that health is wealth and you should never compromise on that. So, what should we do to have a healthy living? The answer is simple:

1. Sleep: You can never achieve a healthy body without a relaxed and healthy mind. Your mind, just like any other part of your body, needs some rest to revive its strength. You can never feel fresh after working for 20 hours a day with 7 days a week. So, plan out a complete 8 hours (minimum 7 hours) of sleep a day. It would be good to have it in one stretch. This will give your mind enough time to cool down itself and will make you feel fresh while waking up.

2. Early to bed and early to rise: makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. The old sayings haven't lost their lusture yet. You should plan your sleep at around 11 PM in the night. Make it a habit!

3. Eat: You should not intake fat, fried or oily stuff. Say no to rice. Eat healthy and nutritious food only. Best is to take an appointment from the doctor and have a balanced diet chart. Never ever go for dieting. Instead eat healthy and nutritious food only. No alcohol or cigs dude! Why to pay for something that is killing you slowly? Instead, save some money and take cyanide!!!

4. Exercise: Do have a daily exercise schedule. It wouldn't take much but will give your body a strength to live for 100 years :). Ideally, an hour to two a day is must. Focus on cardio. Elderly people can go for morning/evening walks whereas the software professionals such as me should definitely hit the gym or even better should go out and play some sports. It soothes your mind, relax your body and is a nice little outing on the daily basis. Believe me, it won't take that much time. Just the determination!!!

In total you need to give 10-11 hours a day (including sleep) to your body and it'll take care of you for the rest of your life!!! :)

One last point, don't hide yourself behind the wall of excuse that your job doesn't allow you to spend time for your health. Just notice how much time do you waste eating at cafeteria in the afternoon and evening. Why not do something productive then? :)

For those of us who are so pathatically disowned by the goddess of health, it would be worth mentioning that Anil Ambani goes for a daily jogging of whopping 10 KMs. If a guy at such a level can spend so much amount of time on his health, why can't we?
