The-So-Called-Logical-Indian-Youth....

It’s been a month since world’s largest democracy witnessed the holy ritual of power shift. The political party, which came into power, has made immaculate use of resources at hand to draw the results no one expected.

Well! Pre-election assumptions and exit polls are now an entity of past, today, we stand at the threshold position from where we need to stop talking and get going.

Now is the time to be more active than we ever were or we thought ourselves into the fact that we were.

The contemporary Indian youth can be categorically divided into two classes and both of these classes constitute of 70 and 30 percent of the Indian youth respectively.

The 30 percent group is a combination of intellectuals, pseudo-intellectuals and wannabe intellectuals. This group constitutes of students from technical and civic background, some of them were really interested into knowing what-is-happening-into-their-country, while most of them were forced by their parents to read history books which ultimately helped them come up with referenced comments during pre-election and post election debates and discussions.

The 70 percent part of the youth is Hollywood group, all they know is Hollywood has this and Hollywood has that. All they want is to live like an American. Ask them about their vision on any contemporary issue India is facing and they will shy and end up saying “America mei aisa hota hai…”

“Bhai to America hi kyun ni chle jaate”. Nai jaa skte, kyunki America b tum jaise directionless people ko Visa ni dega.

America is different, their problems are different, their geographical and cultural diversity is different from us, they have undergone different storms and they have tackled different set of imposed rules.

From where, India stands today, it can be taken to either an epitome-al stage where it becomes impossible for any country to beat or it can undergo economy degradation ceremony.

The government alone cannot make our country a better place to live, government can only make laws and assign funds but an enthusiastic and responsible group of citizens can make those programs and funds useful. Local bodies understand the problems better and hence it can be said that they can solve their problems in much better ways. When I think of ‘local bodies’ the concept of mohalla sabha suggested by an unique political party which lost it’s identity in the fight of Delhi state assembly or Delhi parliament seems legitimate and beneficiary.

Half the youth of India lives under miss-conception. They think Prithvi Raj Chouhan is the president and they think Amir khan is the prime minister because he was seen talking more about national issues than any other personality on TV. 

The least youth can do for your country is be logical and when I say being logical I am sure that I am not talking about finding logic in Bollywood movies. Being logical is about understanding the local problems and trying to solve it on your own rather than waiting for Narendra Modi to come and solve it for you.

Faults-in-us...

We often do it! Sit and stare incessantly at our recently clicked snaps! What we really look for? For how beautiful we have grown into? Or for how smartly the photographer has made us hide our obscurities and has presented a viscous picture of our demons?

We all do it, we do it so often that we lose the count and yet we are not satisfied of what we see because instead of being proud about how good we look on screens we are sad about the person we have turned into or out to be.

We are sad about the so-called-friends we have lost over the course of time and still continue to loose. We are doubtful about our future given the present seems vague and we stare at ourselves trying to decipher the moments when things went wrong.

The photograph is merely a co-ordinated presentation of the happenings from the past, when we stare at ourselves we pose question and all we get to hear in return are excuses coveted under the synonym  The-fault-in-our-stars even though they are-the-faults-in-us.

We continue to live life, as it comes to us and one day when everything seems too different and difficult we feel infer rated and we feel lost and all we do is look for answers in our past. It can be anything, the move you made to win your friend back or the simple suggestion you cited to make your friend’s life better; if it was love which changed your life then the reason for the mishap can be none other than expectations, because we all believe love to be one-stop-shop of things we dream of, while love is a farm where you need to work through sunny and rainy days to grow the world which you deserve more than the world you need.

The world would have been a better place if we judged less and loved more, the world would have been  a far better place if we would have been less envious and more jovial about others success. 

Koyal For FMI!!!

The 51^st Femina Miss India, Koyal Rana—a 21 year old girl from Delhi—enamored the judges last night with her answer when asked: -

"In these past 30 days with the Miss India Organization which values or virtues have you learnt from your fellow contestants that you will take back with you?"

In reply to this nerve breaking question, she said: - "We had a beautiful batch of girls this time ... So vibrant, dynamic, professional when required yet lots of fun. They had both beauty and talent."

Her response seemed genuine and convincing to the highly decorated panel of judges; which led her to the win of 51^st Femina Miss India.

Koyal Rana, is a sweet little girl from Delhi. You may not recognize her but all of you have seen her in Coca cola ads in ads of Garnier where she worked as a Brand Ambassador.

In the recently passed week, I had kept a keen eye on the beauty pageant contest and was supporting Koyal for FMI over internet. The sole reason is very personal and encouraging.

I travel back to three years and smile remembering the innocuous and innocent replies she wrote in response to my flirting texts—needless to say, I was single at that instance. She was very down to earth and very genuine. I asked her few pretty questions and she answered all of them with extra wit and outstanding smartness—and hence she won the Tiara of Miss India.

A sweet little girl she appeared to me; she kept replying to me nearly for few more weeks and them she got busy with her busy schedule.

 I was heartbroken to not receive replies from her but today when she won the Miss Femina India 2014, it all seems vague--my disappointment and sadness.
She is made for bigger things in life--like everyone of us. It's just that she kept all the distractions aside and NAILED IT...:)

The Rise of Reality TV...

The year 2013 is gone by. We have already witnessed the award season of Bollywood and we have witnessed the rise of singers in the gone by year. Ask any random chick about her favorite song from 2013 and she will flit between ‘Tum Hi Ho’ or ‘Sanwar Loon’; if you can decipher the hidden meaning then you have witnessed the rise of reality shows in India.

Arijit Singh the Filmfare recipient for the best male singer 2013 was once a reality TV show contestant. Monali Thakur the cute bubbly girl who is ready to make her debut in Bollywood and the recipient of best female singer Filmfare 2013 was once a contestant of Indian Idol. Sreeram Chandra the man with the soothing voice who sang the song ‘Shubhaanallah’ in the movie ‘Ye jawani Hai Diwani’ happens to be the winner of Indian Idol 5.

In recent past we have heard people bantering about ‘how fake these reality shows are’; we have even seen people cursing the creative team behind such shows, irrespective of the fame and employment they have awarded the contestants from the show with.

If you are a person with optimistic mind setup you are gonna agree with me, when I say that reality shows have changed the artistic world for betterment. We all have heard the quote ‘Every Artist Needs an Audience’ and with the advent of these innocuous reality shows this quote just got real. Every artist with a profound artiste irrespective of the town he comes from and undiluted by the creed he belongs to has received tantamount love and respect for his art.

If you are a person with an abominable mind setup then you will count onto the failures and trauma these reality shows have spread. There have been bad luck and people have faced criticism and depression but the primal reason behind those futile outcomes was the lack of creativity and the sheer absence of art of presentation.

In recent past India has seen an outburst in the field of reality television. Most of them are borrowed concepts and some of them are just the translated versions but till the time people are moving forward it is ok and as the quote goes ‘Rome was not built in a day’ like same change is not gonna come instantly, first people will copy, then experiment and finally one day they will innovate.

Till then Sit back, Relax and enjoy the Not-so original Reality Television.
