Yunhi chala, chal raahi
Yunhi chala, chal raahi
Kitni haseen hai ye duniya
Phool saare jamele, dekh phoolon ke mele
Badi rangeen hai duniya
Rum tum taana na nak tum tum taana na bhaiya
Rum tum taana na nak tum tum taana na bhaiya
Rum tum taana na nak tum tum taana na bhaiya

Happy weekend folks!!!!

Reading Gaurav’s post on Tekdi brought back lots of pleasant memories!

I was there in Pune for 2 1/2 years. But it was like a life time :-)

Its a very small city, but a wonderful place for bachelors. The cost of living is very less. And its so green. Some of my favorite haunting spots in Pune

Will cover from north to south :-)

River View Restaurant beyond Osho Ashram (Very peaceful)
ABC Farmhouse (Best place to take someone special)
Kalyani Bakery near MG Road (Shrewsberry biscuits)
Inox (1st Multiplex in Pune)
Sizzlers at Zamu’s,Dole Patil road (If am not wrong I have seen a sizzler called as drunken chicken. he he)
Just Baked, Dole Patil Road
Joshi vada Pav near the Pune Corporation (Very tasty vada pav)
Pizza hut at JM Road (Its kinda mini pub. Loads of fun)
Subhadra hotel(Very simple but tasty maharashtrian food)
Dosa Diner at Deccan (Dosa with paneer and all. But bit on the expensive side)
Pune Coffee House at Deccan Gymkhana (The cheese sandwich)
How can I not mention Rupali and Vaishali?

I forgot this place name. The junction of FC Road and Bhandarkar road. There is a very famous and old hotel. People used to say that was the favorite dating spot for NRN and Sudha :-)

There is a restaurant in law college road right next to the HDFC Bank and bang opposite law college road. Again forgot this place name :-(

Darshini at Paud Road (Decent south Indian food)
Shabari at Dahanugar colony Kothrud. (I stayed very close to this place. The fruit salad you get here is delicious)
Garden Court (Near Chandni Chowk). A real garden restaurant atop the hill. In the evenings, it is wonderful. You can see the entire Pune city filled with lights. If you are planning to visit Pune do visit Garden Court.
Oasis(This is beyond garden court. Place is good. But lots of mosquitoes)
Banjara Hills (Here they serve curd in that clay pot. And the Dal fry was very good too)
Ambrosia (The ambience here is wonderful. Its on the way to mulshi. But the food is not that good)

Apart from this, so many road side hotels where you get this misal pav, kachchi dabeli and all :-D

I like misal pav a lot, and havent found any place in bangalore which serves misal pav :(

Miss you pune :-(

Chenthil, Nilu, Kaps, Uma, Amit and many others have already written a lot about this moral policing thing. I dont wish to elaborate more on that.

But I want to ask the experts one thing. Cant we take any action against media?

Everyone knows how people feel about Lalu Prasad Yadav. But still there is a case against him and a FIR was recently registered against him in the fodder scam case.

Cricket, supposed to be the religion in India. Azharuddin was subject to CBI Enquiry when this match fixing scandal happened.

But why the hell cant we take any legal action against media? I remember couple of years back, The Hindu editor and some 4 to 5 people were charged with some case. And what they did? They ran away to bangalore to escape from the police. If they feel that what they did is legal, why cant they boldly face the law?

Now this issue on Park Hotel private party. Imagine. In case this issue wasnt publicized by the media, no one would have actually known about it! I think this is a serious issue. Our policemen have better jobs of nabbing criminals and providing safety to the people. Media is deliberately misleading the police by taking such issues on hand!

Is there no end to it? Instead of targetting the anger towards the police men, I think we should focus on Indian Media.

Please dont pounce on me by giving me the link of Sudhish’s article in The Hindu today. In this park hotel episode Dinamalar might be at fault. But in how many incidents The Hindu has been guilty? Name a newspaper and you will have something that they have done to increase the circulation or sensationalise the issue.

The Park Hotel episode deals with fundamental rights. And we can easily relate to it. But there are so many issues that is equally important to everyone of us, but we dont know the consequences. For instance this Kashmir issue. That the army should withdraw. How much of the facts do we know? Has any newspaper reported this demand by the Hurriyat Conference?

    The Mirwaiz said the peace process could not go forward if the ground situation does not improve. He repeated his demands for the release of political prisoners, repeal of draconian laws such as the Public Safety Act, the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act and Disturbed Areas Act, dismantling of army bunkers from villages and towns, end to human rights violations, withdrawal of military and paramilitary forces and freedom of assembly, saying they would go a long way to hastening the progress of peace and reconciliation in the region.

Has any of our media reported this? Why?

Why no one files a case against any of the media? Is media above law? I would go one stop forward and say that the major reason for Indias problems is because of the media!

A law should be brought to curb medias freedom. Then definitely things will change for the better. Till then things will be like this. Lets forget the arrow and take a serious look at the bow!!!!

Todays Trivia. Did you know that Karunakaran’s party in Kerala is called as DIC(K) ?

And I read this paragraph from Malayala Manorama

    ‘The CPI(M) in order to garner additional votes was trying to use DIC(K) as a “hot potato”, he alleged adding that the Congress would welcome the unhappy DIC(K) members to the parent party. ‘

Another reason for me to hate the communists #@$#@$@

When I was on my way to work it started raining. I love rains, and getting drenched. But not while going to office!!!!! And due to this strike call by communists, there were lots of traffic diversions as well :-( Dogs #$%#^%$&

Ended up entering office like a telugu movie hero after a rain dance :-(

I seldom write about cricket. Today the so called important meeting on Indian Crickets future happened.

I dont have any comments on that. But there is one line that caught my attention.
‘The committee has also taken a decision that henceforth no player, captain or coach will write or have any interaction with the media. Any player going to the media will face disciplinary action.’

IMO this is the best thing that could have happened to Indian Cricket!!!

Can some one tell me what Paswan is trying to say here? Can ‘The AntiHindu’ explain about the ideologies of communists here? Why there is no editorial on the double standards of communists? In one seat they will compete against LJP because both LJP and communists have a strong base. And for 36 seats they will form a coalition. Wow!!

Agreed. Allegation does not make the accused person guilty, till its proved. But what did ‘Anti-Hindu’ do during Bofors ? Werent they the 1st people to publish the info on the scam? Its real fun to see the communists go RED :-) ‘Anti-Hindu’ was super duper thrilled at the confusion happening in BJP. But they didnt expect this bombshell from ‘The Mitrokhin Archive and the Secret History of the KGB‘ So sad. Tch Tch

And you know whats the breaking news in Anti-Hindu website? From when did civic polls started getting the limelight. Hmmmm. Interesting :-)

The newspaper is losing it. Losing its reputation by such blatant propoganda for communists! Not just politics. So many articles they post these days are filled with errors. Very unlike them!

Every single day there are some 4 to 5 articles praising the communists? What have the communists done for India, apart from being hurdles for development? Why should one of the prestigious newspapers support them so much?

How is Indian Express folks? Have had enough with Hindu!
