Gulaal - Aaramb hai prachand

Aarambh hai prachand,
Bole mastakon ke jhund,
Aaj jung ki ghadi ki tum guhaar do.
Aan baan shaan ya ki jaan ka ho daan,
Aaj ek dhanush ke baan pe utaar do,
Aarambh hai prachand,
Bole mastakon ke jhund,
Aaj jung ki ghadi ki tum guhar do
Aan baan shaan ya ki jaan ka ho daan,
Aaj ek dhanush ke baan pe utaar do,
Aarambh hai prachand…

Mann kare so praan de,
Jo mann kare so praan le,
Wahi to ek sarv shaktimaan hai.
Krishn ki pukaar hai yeh bhaagwat ka saar hai,
Ki yudh hi tho veer ka pramaan hai...
Kauravon ki bheed ho ya pandavon ka need ho,
Jo lad saka hai wohi to mahaan hai..

Jeet ki hawas nahi, kisi pe koi vash nahin,
Kya zindagi hai thokaron pe maar do,
Maut anth hai nahi tho maut se bhi kyu dare?
Yeh jaake aasmaan mein dahaad do,

Aarambh hai prachand,
Bole mastakon ke jhund,
Aaj jung ki ghadi ki tum guhar do
Aan baan shaan ya ki jaan ka ho daan,
Aaj ek dhanush ke baan pe utaar do,
Aarambh hai prachand…

Ho daya ka bhaav ya ki shaurya ka chunaav,
Ya ki haar ka wo ghaav tum yeh soch lo...
Ya ki poore bhaal bhar jala rahe vijay ka laal,
Laal yeh gulaal, tum yeh soch lo,
Rang kesari ho ya mridang kesari ho ya ki,
Kesari ho laal tum yeh soch lo..

Jis kavi ki kalpana mein zindagi ho prem geet,
Uss kavi ko aaj tum nakaar do,
Bheegti nasson mein aaj, phoolti rago mein aaj,
aag ki lapat ka tum baghaar do,

Aarambh hai prachand,
Bole mastako ke jhund,
Aaj jung ki ghadi ki tum guhar do
Aan baan shaan ya ki jaan ka ho daan,
Aaj ek dhanush ke baan pe utaar do,
Aarambh hai prachand
Hoye hoye hoye…


I'm just not able to get over Gulaal lyrics.
"Jeet ki hawas nahi, kisi pe koi vash nahin,
Kya zindagi hai thokaron pe maar do,
Maut anth hai nahi tho maut se bhi kyu dare?
Yeh jaake aasmaan mein dahaad do"

How could someone write such lyrics? What mindset should one be in to do that ??? Damn ... I have listened to the song a min of 50times over the last 10hrs. I just just just cant get over the lyrics. Each line has such depth !!

Leader - Screenplay
Prasthanam - Dialogues

Fear of unknown %$*&#@%

Nowadays I have soo many updates/experiences that when I sit to write them down I feel lazy that I have to write SOOO much, and eventually I write nothing :D

Life has been good, work is progressing at a faster rate than I expected. So far good. When life is on a smooth ride, there's always a roadbump, a speedbreaker, to slow you down. I'm still waiting for it and I hope it wouldn't be in line of work.

Two of my college seniors n close friends are getting married. Awesome!! Been a while (since Nov) since I attended a marriage where I know both groom n bride :-)

I happened to see Gulaal yesterday, man awesome lyrics. I have no clue how I missed this movie. All the recent political movies I saw have been amazing, simple amazing. 1st it was leader, a good political movie after quite sometime. Then came Prasthanam, it literally overshadowed leader's story in my heart. and along came Rajneeti, and now Gulaal.

I see a general decline in the online presence of my batchmates. Not just IIIT, but in general. Earlier they used to blog, be active on fb, have witty status mesgs on gtalk, send those funny n some stupid fwd mails etc etc. Nowadays I don't see any of those happening. No blogs, invisible mode in gtalk, n activity on fb would limit to personal mesgs sent to someone on their list or sharing some videos.
Another sign of getting old ??! If this is 25, what will happen at 30 !!! Scares me :-)

My 1st accident

I have a very good track record, no accidents or even a scratch on my bike in last 3+yrs. Today was my 1st accident, and here goes the story


Now... this is a story all about how
my life got flipped, turned upside down,
and I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there
I'll tell you how I met with my 1st accident fair.

In... Hyderabad I started to drive,
and 3yrs I drove car and bike,
chillin' out, maxin', relaxin', all cool
and without an accident I burnt all the fuel.

When a friend sent a sms "I'm up to no good"
I was driving on the road with no hood,
I replied back how sweet I am ,
when everyone on road I gave a damn.

I lift my eyes "bang" I hit the rear,
the auto driver gave me the worst stare,
His legs scratched and my handle bent,
all I could do is offer my money unspent.

I pulled up to friends house about seven or eight
and I yelled to her "yo home, and I feel great,"
I looked at my bike, still scratch less,
and decided it was all in gods bless.



So, thats the story. I know I screwed the song, but it started very nice in my mind, but soon I couldn't find the right words, and too tired to spend more time :D
So My bike and I stand scratchless, while the poor auto guy had his legs scratched and auto with a big dent. I offered him 200bucks and left the place, went shopping for office furniture and now back home.

Hungry, dinner time :-)
The never ending post
