I came back home late today after a meticulous and hard day at work... for those who know what i do... we had opened a stall at a concert today evening and we closed shop within half an hour... we were sold out... but for that half an hour to happen we had to stay back till late night... anyway lousy and good day at work...

something that really provoked me to write tonight...

Resul Pookuty... the man who won the Oscar... Indian... Mallu... hmm all fine... i just happened to watch a video of his on you tube... coz i just happened to find that his acceptance speech was recognized the best... isnt that a double oscar... too bad i never got to see it...

hence i searched youtube for the video.. n i was sad for one reason , i dint get the video... happy for another reason ... i got a chance to see 2 other things... 1. his interview with midday... a humble interview... in which i could clearly see his humble portrayal of life... his simplicity in his speech... n his vigor to narrate the hardships he went through in his early life...

in this bloody present generation... how many of us are ready to reveal our past hardships... i do remember gandhi or nehru or ambani or who ever... i mean the old prominent people of a different generation stating their hardships much more than their struggle to glory...

but here is a man... who still follows our native style... n what made me write this... simple... below the video... i had a chance to read the comments...

that video link is to show u guys the comments i am talkin about... all of u have doubts y India is still lagging... the answer is in the comments...

here is a video depicting a man who craved and cried his way to glory... and what is the discussion happening below...

one wants to clean up mumbai slums... either he hasnt seen mumbai or he is mad... i visited mumbai very recently... i got to know one thing for sure... clear the slums... and mumbai is finished... can u believe half of the working class lives in slums... and u want to clear it... then who would u get to work... half breeding americans...

have u ever lived in a mumbai slum... do u ever think that people living there wish to lead such a life... do u ever realize that half the prominent elite Indians rose from mumbai slums...

another guy wants to know about his religion...

guys c'mon... we are talkin about an achievement here... jus by his one oscar... do see how many aspects of life and technology and career is being exposed to us... i mean another chance to learn more...

i expected to see discussions about his sound technology.. or may be his pro's n cons... n here we have ass holes... branded with ISI talkin about religion n another moron talkin shit about clearing a major population of a city... respectfully the trade city of india...

by his just winning the oscar... these are point i learnt ... i hope you feel the same... then you would know my anger in writing this blog...

1.nothing is impossible (now u have proof)

2.from chimney lamps to world class acoustics that too a posh studio in mumbai

3.if an american or english criticizes ur accent again... tell him i am a slumdog... n see his reaction... pookutty just got us the best acceptance speech appreciation too... (remember mallu accent is what is most crtiticized)

4.keep in mind indians are way far advanced ... its jus that we are still waiting for our chance... instead y not create our own chance to conclude the glory's to us...

5.never try to fault a politician or the government... faith in ur own actions and control over ur emotions... will lead a path to glory...

6.its not religion ... its not caste... its not education... but its just human values that makes a man's existence on earth worth while...

there were a lot of things i wanted to contribute to the society... but i had to be lashed out of it...

but i still respect every single human being ... even for their mere existence and not just as a piece of flesh...

a person attempting suicide wanted to laugh aloud for one last time before he ends his life... n he laughs out loud... an on looker asks him his reason for such joy... n he tells him i am goin to die n i want to laugh out loud one last time... hearing this the second starts laughing... a third comes in .. a fourth and so on... n guess what... hundreds of people with sorrow n grief were found laughin out their hearts.... do u know what i am talkin about... yeah this is how the laughter club was formed...

many petty disputes make us think life is unwanted... we may be just a worm amongst trillions of people around... but keep in mind... even a worm perishes only after its purpose on earth is over...

i really do see a lot of talks about slum dog millionaire ... but cant people talk about the positives... i mean everything has positive n negatives... but why say the british part of it...
someone some where has made us think... thats all we need to better ourselves... and that is what every country does to prosper... and that is one bloody thing we neglect...

i really would like to hear more on this... anyone still awake after reading this... do leave a comment...
