Movie!!!

Last night I was watching a malayalam movie which is undoubtedly one of my favourites "Yodha". Such a beautiful movie.. I just love watching it..

This touched me!!

The day we passed our class 4 was a day of mixed emotions. On one one hand our joys knew no bounds.. we were stepping into the coveted senior school... morning assemblies in the school auditorium , a junior school to envy us and ofcourse the SENIOR tag, but we dreaded being alotted to 5A, Mrs Ira Madan's class.The session change break was full of tension from morning to evening...It was not that I didnt like ma'am but she was very strict. I would unknowlingly pray that I be alotted to 5B or 5C..but luckily those prays went unheard for me. I got 5A and an opportunity to be a student of a wonderful teacher who taught us English , maths, drawing and singing with same ease. Yes I agree daily scoldings came with this package.. but those ended up to be the most memorable moments of school. But I still remember passing out of class 5 was so painful, we didnt want to leave her class..But we were a lucky batch when we reached class 7 , she became class teacher of 7A and as luck would have it I was in 7A.
The best times were when we had concerts held.. she would and till now remember the characters her students played. One of my best friends had played the role of a whitewasher in one such play when in 7th or 8th standard. A few months back she met Mrs Madan on the streets of Lucknow... On seeing her Mrs Madan asked her "How are u my little Whitewasher?" for my friend it was such a happy moment. It seems ma'am was trying to cross a busy road and she asked my friend if she could hold her hand. My friend happily obliged and helped her cross the road. Ma'am then went on her way leaving my friend happy and exalted. As she reached home she just pondered.. " Teacher helped us cross roads and hurdles, guided us to safety and now that same teacher asked her to help cross roads..." Tears welled up in my eyes when she narrated this story... Teachers are great!!!!

Wake up Indians!!!

Last night I was watching an interview with Lakshmi Mittal, the third richest person in the world. The interviewer was in full praise of this iconic rise from a poor Rajasthani village to the 500-crore worth house. It is a really praiseworthy and applaudable achievement. But what I wanted to know is what he has done for that village in Rajasthan. Indians have risen to high levels internationally .. but have they done their dues towards their homeland.

I was reading through this article http://www.indianexpress.com/story/3545.html

If only all financially well off institutions adopted a village ...

When in school , we had SUPW classes in which we did many things like collecting clothes for poor. In addition to this we had to take Sakshartha classes for the poor. Do today's children have time for all this ? Is the present education system instilling such feelings for fellow humans among the young generation?

Zindagi ko maine kabhi na samjha,
Ab tak mujhe bin maange sab kuch diya,
Aaj jab kuch manga to woh na diya,
Zindagi ko maine kabhi na samjha.
