Three immortal songs for the weekend

Three immortal songs to take you through the first day of your weekend.


  1. Tere Bina Zindagi Se

The unmatched team of Gulzar sahab, RD Burman, Kishor Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar will easily take you through the first half of your day with this gem of a number from the film Andhi. 

If you go deeper into the lyrics, it remains etched in your heart. 

"Tere Bina zindagi se koi shikawa to nahi, tere Bina zindagi bhi lekin zindagi to nahi"

Listen to the song and be amazed at how Gulzar sahab can convey such deep thoughts in easiest possible way and how easily RDB brings out a tune that you don't need to see the song to feel the emotion. Not to forget how Kishore da and Lata didi bring out each and every emotion in the song to life.

  1. Is Rang Badalti Duniya Me

Team consisting of Shankar-Jaikishan, Hasarat Jaipuri and Mohd. Rafi, immortalizes the old school romance.

This song from the movie Rajkumar will sooth you through the afternoons.

The songs reaches its pinnacle with Hasarat Jaipuri taking it to an unimaginable level by saying 

"chhup jao humari aankhon me bhagawan ki niyat thik nahi". 

It's an epitome of how much can you care for someone you love.

  1. Kahin Dur Jab Din Dhal Jaye

Mukesh the soulful singer teams with lyricist Yogesh and brilliant composer Salil Choudhary to bring to life this masterpiece from the movie Anand.

           "Ghani thi uljhan, bairi apana man

             Apana hi hoke sahe dard paraye"

The composition and Mukesh's voice bring the pain inside the character and the lyrics perfectly to life.

The song is sure to take you through your lone evenings.

Listen to them and do share your thoughts.

Beemanagar Tales -3 'Bapat Sir'

This chapter of my life is from my last few years in Beemanagar Colony and has very little connection to the colony itself. But then, I like to connect all my yesteryear fond memories with Beemanagar and this chapter is too close to me, as it has made me who I am today, professionally and in large part personally and hence it has to be part of Beemanagar Tales. Year 2003, I had just completed my law graduation and had come back to Indore after an unsuccessful job hunt at Pune. Realising the hard fact of life that Corporates won't offer job in legal department to someone passed out of an unknown college.  If I don't have the experience I don't get the job and I won't get experience till I have a job. I had come back to Indore. The plan was to join some advocate's office as a junior, learn a few things and gain experience. I didn't know any advocate and hence did have no clue where to start from. The only thing that I had in mind was I wanted to work...

Herd Mentality

Herd Mentality If you Google the term 'Herd Mentality', you will find that it's a phrase used to describe the behavior of people where they follow their peers largely on emotional basis and without application of any rationale. I remember one of those adds where every student is following the other while making a career choice and they are depicted as lambs/sheep to demonstrate that they will land up with nothing in their careers if they follow the herd mentality. I also remember my school days when our teachers used to tell us 'भेड़ चाल चलोगे तो कुछ नही पाओगे। अपनी सोच रखोगे तो आगे बढ़नें की संभावनाएें बनेंगी।' The term is always used as a negative term to describe a behavioral trait that one should avoid. And it's considered to be a behavioral trait that will not take you anywhere in your life. On a thoughtful moment, this whole concept of herd mentality, to be a bad behavioural aspect of human personality, seemed full of falsehood to me...

इच्छाशक्ती -2

There is this slope in front of Chamber Numbers MB-G-081 and MB-G-082 in the  Hospital, leading to  paediatric  section. The slope is created to facilitate the children and patients who are wheelchair bound or have to walk with crutches. While it's easy to take wheelchair on the slope as compared to the stairs, but it's not all that easy for those thin/slim young mother's whose 5-15 year old kid is in great pain and has to be taken on wheelchair to the doctor's chamber. Have been watching people use this slope for past five years now. You see young mothers slowly walking backwards, holding the wheelchair with all their strength to have better control while coming down the slope, a kid in his teens with great pain walking up/down the slope with his crutches, 4-5 year old kids walking up/down with those masks and heavy bandages on their arms and your heart is bound to melt. But sheer grit of these young mothers, help them do all that they would not ot...
