Where the hell these 90s rockstars are …? Anyone…



Jholu Ram is back…err..sorry ..Altaf Raja is back.  

Nobody else could’ve made Jholu Ram (from the movie Ghanchakkar.. ) sound so much fun. And he reminded us of all the awesome indipop singers that once defined the Indian pop scene. Do you remember these 90s rockstars? 

Baba Sehgal

Remember Aaja meri gaadi mein baith jaa? Rarely has been the act of picking up women in cars as beautifully depicted as in “Aja meri gadi main baith ja” with its sinisterly-meaningful “Pom Pom” squeezing of horn.
He is credited as the first Indian rapper to jump on the Indi pop bandwagon with hits such as 'Thanda Thanda Paani' (a remake of "Ice Ice Baby" by Vanilla Ice) and 'Manjula'.

He introduced the janta or the Mango People to rap and ohh boy, was he popular! People even started dressing like him .  Trust me the dude was cool. And it would be interesting to have him back on the scene. Last time I saw him on air was in a TV serial..playing a Punjabi character…

”Danda pakadke khada hua hai Manjula”, “Dudh peeyega Raja aja Manjula”, “Khol de tu darwaza aaja Manjula” ….. lol

Devang Patel

Meri Marzi  and "Duniya gayi tel lene aish tu kar" these songs  were a rage when I was in school.
The lord of spoofs. How can you not like the man who sang  Madhuri Dixit mili raste mein, khaye chane hamne saste mein

Lyrics of Meri Marzi : nakli daadi mooch laga ke ban jaau main chor
apne ghar mein chori karke khoob machaau shor
paani pe main raashan rakhu muft mein bechu tel
kankar patthar dhool daalkar sabko de du bhel
main chahe ye karu main chahe woh karu
meri marzi

New Kid on the Block !!!!!



Now here comes a movie after ages where the hero is not tall, not fair, doesn't have six packs, his body is not shaved or waxed, doesn't look or act like Khans, Kapoors or Kumars.

Don't fight 100 people at a time like Ajay, Salman & Akshay. No gel on hair like Shahrukh, not close to perfectionist Aamir..but still looks charismatic… someone majority of Indians can relate to.

Villian (assuming Abhay has grey character) unlike Deols doesn't scream like his cousin Sunny nor a sharpshooter like Bobby. A heroine who isn't someone scantily clad doing a quintessential item number. Simply Jhakhaas...

Looking forward to this one!!!!  Looks promising.

Note : Raanjhanaa [also spelt Ranjhana, Raanjhnaa, Ranjhna, Raanjhana, Ranjhanaa etc.] is nothing but another way to call someone Raanjha. Ranjha, from the story of Heer-Ranjha was the hero of one of the famous classic love stories of Punjab..

What an Idea Sirji!!!


Here is the bitter TRUTH we all know: You can't TALK if you don't have balance in your phone... agreed!

But why can't we make a CALL despite ZERO Balance??? Don’t let me talk but at least allow me to ring that number so that he/she might call back!!!

Not every emergency means Dial 100 or 911! And we all know how responsive they are…sorry but that’s how it is and I never shy away to call a spade a spade; our policing system is in dire straits…approaching a policeman is in fact embarrassing and humiliating at times.

Murphy’s Law says "Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong" that means you will run out of balance just before you have to make an urgent call or run into trouble.

After what had happened in Delhi on the tragic night of 16th December 2012, it would be a blessing in disguise for girls to make a call on any number despite Zero Balance.
Also this is the least our Government can do for its citizen, women in particular if they really mean to make a difference!!!!
Though I insist women should never run out of balance in their mobiles and should always keep few ICE numbers (In Case Of Emergency) on Speed Dial.

I don't know about the Technical feasibility of how it would be done but I know some way or the other IT CAN BE DONE!!!

Also there is economics involved which is quite interesting and lucrative for Telecom Companies.
Let me explain: A call is being made from the other end which means revenue. Some of you will say that it doesn't benefit Telecom Service provider 1 ; as  the call-back is being made from Telecom Service provider 2 but eventually it will all even out in the long run.

Just heard someone saying What an Idea Sirji!!!
