Photography as a hobby

What is life ? It is an experience and filled with mix of good and bad memories. What is the best way to capture it other than Photography ???

Buy a decent camera.... learn properly about how to take a picture., Improvise it... be a good observer.... improve over a period.... Capture your lovely moments. Share it with first circle of friends and family. I would recommend this to every individual on earth. But it is an hobby ... and stay with it.

To all the high headed individuals who think SLR should be owned only by experts, professional photographers.... Go to hell..... SLR is a commodity and every one has a right to buy and use it. They can even exhibit their pictures in gallery if they can afford it.... You don't own anything other than some abusive tweets or cribs... get on with life dumb folks...

Imtiaz Ali's Rockstar - Movie review

Movie Name: Rockstar
Director: Imtiaz Ali
Overall Rating - Very good if you are sick are tired of Mindless Masala movies

Saw the movie at Odeon, Manchester on 12th Nov, 2011.

Plus Points:

1. Imtiaz Ali's approach to the movie.... It is simple, journey based, experience based.... didn't try to find an end to story....
2. Lyricist - Irshad Kamil - was wonderful... less dialogues... Ranbir's emotions are mostly conveyed through Lyrics.... he has contributed immensely.
3. Music - What to say.... another masterpiece from Rahman
4. Ranbir Kapoor - Acted really well... emoted very well.... would have been really good if he had moved his left hand while playing Guitar.... as he claimed that he learnt playing Guitar for acting in this movie.

Minus Points:

1. Nargis - She looks good but doesn't look like a common girl... more from rich and famous attitude... hence, the problem.... or the lack while emoting...
2. Screenplay - lacked coherence like.... where he learnt guitar classes, who was his musical mentor etc etc...

Favourite Scenes....

1. Plenty... like Samosa in pain scene, tearing the contract, signal scene bwn Ranbir & his manager, Caravan scene bwn Ranbir & Aditi Rao....

Sensex outlook Nov, Dec 2011

Tough international political, financial problems prevailed above the Sensex over the last 3 months resulting in severe volatility....

Dull period ahead of the year end.... hence, expect the following... Support levels 16500, 15750; Resistance 18200, 18900;

Avoid trading in huge positions in Futures... Indian trading mood is bit if low key due to low IIPs, bad corporate governance news like Kingfisher airlines, inflation and higher interest rates. Currency volatility would impact the profit margins over this quarter too.

Abt Rockstar - Music

Rahman's Rockstar album was out last week...

My opinion:

1. Can be classified as a "Priceless Album"
2. Imtiaz Ali has extracted the maximum from Rahman !!!
3. Mohit Chauhan - must have felt being in heaven for getting 9 songs.
4. Rahman transcended barrier and produced an amazing, classy album.
5. Every single track turned out to be Fabulous
6. Wonderful music arrangement and had ensemble cast to perform those in every track.
7. Impressed by meaningful lyrics ...

also wondering... 60 minutes of music ... how much going to be retained or is it going to another 3 hour movie ?

Lyrics from Jo Bhi Main Kehna Chahoon from Rockstar

Lyrics from Jo Bhi Main Kehna Chahoon from Rockstar

Lyrics and meaning Lyrics from Jo Bhi Main Kehna Chahoon from Rahman's Rockstar

Movie: Rockstar
Music: A R Rahman
Lyrics: Irshad Kamil
Singer: Mohit Chauhan

Ya ya ya.. Ya ya ya ye hmm..
Ya ya ya ye hm.. (Ya ya ya..)
O yay ye (O Yay ye..)
Ya ya ya ya.. (Ya ya ya ya..)
O o o .. (O o o ..)
O o o o.. (O o o o..)

Jo bhi main kehna chahoon
Barbaad karen alfaaz mere
Alfaaz mere

Whatever I want to say,
it's ruined by my words..
my words..

O ya ye..
Ya ya ya ye...

jhal jhal jhal re jhal..

Kabhi mujhe lage ki jaise
Saara hi ye jahaan hai jaadu
Jo hai bhi aur nahi bhi hai ye
Fiza, Ghata, Hawa, Baharein
Mujhe kare ishaare ye
Kaise kahoon
Kahani main inki

sometimes I feel that
the whole world is a magic,
which is there and not even there,
these wind, clouds, air, and springs..
They signal to me,
how do I say
their story..

Jo bhi main kehna chahoon
Barbaad karen alfaaz mere
Alfaaz mere

O ya ye..
O ya ya ye..

Maine yehi socha hai aksar
tu bhi main bhi sabhi hain sheeshe
khud hi ko hum sabhi mein dekhen
nahi hoon main hoon main to phir bhi
sahi galat tumhara main
mujhe paana paana hai tumko

I have often thought,
that you, me, all of us are mirrors,
we see only ourselves in all,
I am not there still I am..
right, wrong, yours me,
I have to get.. get you..

Jo bhi main kehna chahoon
Barbaad kare alfaaz mere
Alfaaz mere

Lyrics of Oh Naadaan Parindey Ghar aa ja from Rockstar

Lyrics of Oh Naadaan Parindey Ghar aa ja from Rockstar

Meaning and Lyrics of Lyrics of Oh Naadaan Parindey Ghar aa ja from Rahman's Rockstar

Movie: Rockstar
Music: A R Rahman
Lyrics: Irshad Kamil
Singers: Mohit Chauhan, A R Rahman

O naadaan parindey
ghar aa jaa..
ghar aa jaa..

O stupid bird, (or naive bird)
come back home..
come back home..

kyun des bides phire maara
kyun haal behaal thaka haara
kyun des bides phire maara
tu raat biraat ka banjara

why do you wander country-country (in such bad shape)
why is your condition so bad, all tired-lost
why do you wander this country to that
you (have become) a nomad of nights..

sau dard badan pe phaile hain
har karam ke kapde maile hain

a hundred pains are spread on the body,
clothes of all compassion are dirty..
(guess that means, all the sources of compassion are not there for you right now)

kaate chahe jitna paron se hawa ko
khud se na bach payega tu
tod aasmanon ko phoonk de jahanon ko
khud ko chhhupa na payega tu
koi bhi le rasta
tu hai tu bebasta
apne hi ghar aayega tu

however much you cut the winds with your wings,
you'll not be able to fend yourself from yourself..
break the skies and burn the worlds,
but you can't hide yourself,
whatever path you take,
you are homeless (out there)
you will come to your home only..

o naadaaan...
o naadan parindey, ghar aa jaaa..
ghar aa ja. ghar aa ja. ghar aa ja.

kaaga re kaaga re mori itni araj tujhse chun chun khaiyo maans
khaiyo na tu naina more, khaiyo na tu naina mohe piya ke milan ki aas..

O crow, I have so much of request to you, eat (my body's) flesh,
but do not eat my eyes, don't eat my eyes as I have a wish to see my lover
