Is this gonna end???

My dear peace loving mumbaikars... Don't you realise what you are doing??? Mr. Raj was arrested and somewhere else, in some corner of Maharashtra, one person was killed. Tens of thousands of people are fleeing Maharashtra in all the possible trains. Are you trying to replicate the Indian Partition?? Please realise that first, you all are Indians and an Indian has the right to live anywhere in India as per his whims and fancies, as long as he does not trouble anyone for his selfish interests. Mumbai / Maharashtra / Any other place in India has improved due to people who work hard and people who strive for their livelihood. An industrialist, no matter earns profit and is able to lead a good life, but his first and foremost gift to the society was the financial risk that he undertook and the number of employment opportunities he provided. Each person is having his/her own worth and you should respect him for that. What would a poor panipuri vendor do or a poor taxi driver do to ...

LOVE...Happy Valentines Day

Some Quotes on Love.. collected from friends, downloaded from the net etc.... on this occasion of valentines day.

Mumbai... Yeh kyaa huaa???

Today, I get an email mentioning "Mumbai Saaf Karo". Though this email was about the cleansing of Mumbai's subways from the stink and the garbage, I had made an assumption that this was related to the halla-gulla that is happening in Aamchi Mumbai, with the rift between Mumbaikars and North Indians. There have been quite some incidents in Bangalore and quite a lot of arguments amongst my friends and colleagues about North Indians and South Indians. Arrey bhai, we first belong to INDIA and then, to our houses.. and not to any state in particular. States have been created only for the sake of ease in administration of policies and not to create a rift between Indians. We still should be UNITED in spite of all DIVERSE ways of life. UNITY IN DIVERSITY. Like the dialogue in the movie ChakDe, "Mujhe koi mulk yaa state ka naam nahi sunayi deta hai, mujhe toh sirf ek naam sunayi deta hai aur woh hai INDIA"... I might not be exactly correct in the dialogue rendering,...
