Glass of Water

Posted by Shrikant on Saturday, October 18, 2014


Scared of losin' all the time
He wrote it in a letter, he was a friend of mine
He heard you could see your future
Inside a glass of water with ripples and the lines
And he asked, "Will I see heaven in mine?"

That is just the way it was
Nothing could be better and nothing ever was
Oh, they say you can see your future
Inside a glass of water, the riddles and the rhymes
"Will I see heaven in mine?"

-Coldplay (Glass of Water)

Kyun Ki!!!

Posted by Shrikant on Thursday, October 16, 2014
Behold!!! Various stages in life...

At first being full of yourself:

Kyun ki...
Meri Pant bhi sexy
Meri shirt bhi sexy
Mere baal bhi sexy
Meri chaal bhi sexy
Ye rumaal bhi sexy hai


Then being full of love:

Kyunki tum hi ho
Ab tum hi ho
Zindagi ab tum hi ho
Chain bhi
Mera dard bhi
Meri aashiqui
ab tum hi ho

And then being full of soap:

rishton ka rang badla 
naaton ka dhang badla 
aaina phir bhi wahi 
kyonki saans bhi kabhi bahu thi 
haa saans bhi kabhi bahu thi 
kyonki saans bhi kabhi bahu thi 
haa saans bhi kabhi bahu thi


Hence proved :

Bang Bang

Posted by Shrikant on Wednesday, October 15, 2014
Welcome to RADIO SHITTYYYY
Mumbai's No. 2 SHIT MUSIC RADIO
IT'S ROTTT!!!

Welcommmmmmmeeeee to hul-CUT, the show for movie fanatics, where we rave about the latest movies. This is RJ Shrikant. And today we are going to target Bang Bang. What a title!!  Bang Bang!! Why so??  Lots of fireworks… Hero dancing with fireworks bursting from the backside…



Aisi kya, chali hawa, ki le gayi
Meri saanson ko mujhse door
Awwww Gross…

Kaise yeh huaa magar
Na hai mujhe, na tujhko koi khabar
Even Grosser…

Na jaanu main, na jaane tu
Huaa ye jaadu kaise
Jadu?? What Jadu?? Seems to be flatulence!!!

Oops did I say backside... I meant Background.

Or rather like the heroine Harleen said - Hero is like a Panda... Eats Shoots and leaves... Oh just the punctuation and pauses are different for the hero and for Panda.

Coming back to the story. It is claimed that the Kohinoor has been stolen by someone. Apparently this someone is allegedly Rajveer - the Protagonist/Antagonist/Antacid something of this story. And then the good guys and the bad guys and the good bad guys and the bad good guys are all after him. And what is he doing? He's running from all these guys and jumping off houses and running away limping only to gatecrash into a blind-date for Harleen - Bank Receptionist. Rajveer despite his limp manages to woo the lady with his awesome dancing skills that hardly seem to bother his limp. Probably his limp is only because of rheumatism and dancing is supposed to be good for rheumatism.

All seems to be going good for love sick Harleen when suddenly she has to visit the ladies room. On returning, she finds her date missing. Whoa!! But he's left her a present. A nice, longgggg bill of all that he ordered and all that he devoured including a lot of furniture. Damn!! Must have been hungry.  Harleen just hands over her card to pay for the bill. Oops it’s not her plastic card but her boss' visiting card. Bechara gets hauled up by the police

Meanwhile, while returning home, Harleen accidently rams her car into Rajveer. Nopes, she wasn't part of a drunken driver in hit and run case. At first she is sorry to have hit a person. Then she is happy that she hit Rajveer (for running out of the date as if she smelt of week old pav bhaji) then she is sad about feeling happy and then happy that she felt sad about feeling happy about hitting him. This continues for a while inside Harleen's brain till he brain short circuits and she passes out.

When she wakes up, same cliched scene. “Where am I??” Nah, no “Who am I??”... She does not have amnesia yet. She clearly remembers last night. Even after such a harrowing experience of her date almost devouring the entire restaurant, she still has place for him in her heart... Awww how romantic

Uff mere dil mein thodi khaali si jagah thi
Tune aake bin kiraaye ye jagah li

Yo people listen to the song
and feel the pain
Even in these times of recession
the heart's not given in vain
wherever you go
gotta pay EMI or rent
else without notice
Off you'll be sent

Kuch keh bhi na saki, ye kaisi bebasi
Yun chupke chupke aaya bin bulaya mehmaan

In the meanwhile all the good bad and other guys are after Rajveer and Harleen trying to capture them. Rajveer becomes java coder to save his new lady love and himself.

While (not safe)
do
Execute PandaSequence
{
EAT();
SHOOT();
LEAVE();
}
done

Problem is Harleen turns out to be hardware programmer and interrupts his piece of code with a hardware interrupt cause she was getting a sneeze. Did you know that you could not keep your eyes open while you sneezed? You can definitely try that… but don't try sneeze with your nose closed, you might hear your ears popping.

Ohhh!!!  I hear someone sneezing. Its Harleen. You can't proceed with the movie with common cold afflicted lead lady. You can have some really un-ladylike incidents. So we do penance to appease the might deity Snicks Naporub. Just rub it on your nape and all your common cold afflictions are gone. Ditto the case with Harleen. She is so relieved that she breaks into song and dance

Tune naak par laga jab
The all new Snicks Naporub
Bina maange hi mill gaya hai sab
Sneezes gayi aur
Khul gaya hai sab
Meherbaan hua hua
Meherbaan hua Rub

- Powered by Snick NapoRub.

Soon Harleen is captured by Villain Omar Zafar. And our hero Rajveer intervenes and saves her with moves that would give Kung-Fu Panda a run for his money along with some spare timed explosives that he plants on villains fortress with Ching-GUM. Nopes no ad for Ching's secret as we do not have tie up with Mr. Ranveer Ching nor do we have any specific affinity of Chinese Food. And then like in all pot boiler movies, a last minute chase and a one on one standoff between hero and villain. Villain dies, hero faints.

Rajveer wakes up. Same cliched scene again. “Where am I???” He is under unwanted police protection. Harleen whisks him away in Panda Style

Oops she is observing some vrat... so does not EAT
Oops she lost her smart phone and her not so smart gun... so does not shoot
But definitely leaves.. Leaves us bewildered. What hit us??

Bang Bang right till the end!!
Bang Bang... in the head!!
Bang Bang... Who am I??
Bang Bang... Why am I here??

Bang Bang, Bang Bang, Bang Bang
Jaane kyun...
Bang Bang, Bang Bang, Bang Bang
Jaane kyun... Bang Bang!

You were listening to hul-CUT with RJ Shrikant

Until next time keep listening to RADIO SHITTYYYY

IndiBlogger Meet - #WordUp

Posted by Shrikant on Wednesday, October 08, 2014

Who wakes up early on a Saturday? Nah not me.. any other blogger... Don't think so.. But 20th September, there were atleast 50 early birds to get hold of the proverbial worm. In this case a Moto G. Nah, its not just the materialistic things that made these birds, rather bloggers get up and get going. It was the Wordup Meet hosted by BigRock and IndiBlogger.

A welcome song "Word... Upppp!!" follwed by "Games people play" by the IndiRock Band to shake off what was left of the sleepiness in all our minds and we were ready for some Mindblowing Gyaan by all the speakers right from Vinit Goenka to Snigdha Manchanda. If someone were to ask me to summarize the day in 10 bullet points, I'd shoot the bullets through that person's head and award myself points. So if you want to know what these guys shared, you missed it buddy - go burn, you should have been there. If you are lucky, someone might post about the sessions, but I doubt anyone would be able to do full justice to all those wonderful speakers.

Moving on, the day concluded with a small - should I say performance, by Bhavish Ailani which had all of us in splits. And then we had a formal training session by Prof. Nihal Lazarus in the ancient art or modern science of Head Banging.

Ohh ohh and finally there was this bag of goodies for all those who attended, a Big Rock Bag with a coupon for a FREE ".ME domain and wordpress hosting" for a year. And yeah there was also this strange looking gizmo which was supposed to amplify sounds using some advanced alien technology called NFA - Near Field Audio or something like that. Ummm and there were also lots of prizes up for grabs - from the Moto X right down to the potato and banana.. yesss potato and banana!!!

I met some wonderful people there. From the usual suspects - Vineet, Anoop, Renie to my good friends Prasanna the puzzler and Sherna the.. Meow to the new faces that I met for the first time - Darshan (he won the banana), Vallari, Prerna and a Shahen (he's just 13 :O)

The big B's - BigRock and BlueFrog along with IndiBlogger were all great hosts and it was an awesome experience for me. 

PS: Still fiddling with that weird gizmo. Have been able to use it as an ordinary speaker yes, but NFA - sorry still working on that. Me no techie. Somebody HELPPPPP!!!

Btw.. How can I not post photos :D

Imagine
All those emotions
All those thoughts

Themselves out
As if they
Had a mind
Of their own
A style
Of their own
A channel
Of their own

Those UNHEARD words!!
Those UNHEARD thoughts!!
Those UNHEARD emotions!!


You might end up like this :D

Quirky and Queer

Posted by Shrikant on Saturday, April 19, 2014
I was passing under a tree and a sudden quirk had me photographing the tree. The Cannon Ball tree. At great "personal risk" The fruits are as large as cannon balls and allegedly allergic and to some extent poisonous as well. Means mechanical as well as chemical damage :O

It has kinda queer looking creeper like appendages from which the fruits and flowers hang. Oh I forgot, it has very very very beautiful flowers. And my camera (phone) had decided to focus at a very queer point. None of the beautiful details are emphasized :(

Some people drink champagne out under the stars
While others drink wine leaning over a bar
But all that I need dear to make me feel fine
Is to know that your love will forever be mine

I'd give an ocean of diamonds or a world filled with flowers
To hold you closely for just a few hours
Hear you whisper softly...

Green

Posted by Shrikant on Tuesday, April 08, 2014
It's not that easy bein' green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think you could be nicer being red or yellow or gold
Or something much more colorful like that

It's not that easy being green
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over
Cause you're not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky

But green's the color of spring
And green can be cool and friendly-like
And green can be big like a ocean
or important like a mountain
Or tall like a tree

When green is all that is to be
It could be you wonder
But, Why wonder, why wonder
I am green, and that'll do just fine
And it's beautiful, and i think it's what I wanna be

Excuse

Please Excuse my busy schedule for the day. I shall be reposting E-for-Elephant from an earlier post.


Looky at the nice little flowering cactus near the bottom of the Elephant :P I really love this pic cuz the header of lifeiszany is very much like this. A mooning Elephant :D

Ohh.. and here's a nice little limerick  verse written by J.R.R.Tolkein

Grey as a mouse,
Big as a house,
Nose like a snake,
I make the earth shake,
As I tramp through the grass;
Trees crack as I pass.
With horns in my mouth
I walk in the South,
Flapping big ears.
Beyond count of years
I stump round and round,
Never lie on the ground,
Not even to die.
Oliphaunt am I,
Biggest of all,
Huge, old, and tall.
If ever you'd met me
You wouldn't forget me.
If you never do,
You won't think I'm true;
But old Oliphaunt am I,
And I never lie.

You are on a Safari

Now not charging :P

Bull

An old adage says "Take the Bull by the horns".. But has anyone wondered - no one's said anything about what to do after you've done that. And has anyone thought from the Bull's point of view. It would be like "Damn, leave my horns alone!!!"

Abstract

Posted by Shrikant on Tuesday, April 01, 2014
Adrian woke up still feeling very drowsy
He looked around, he seemed to be in a garden
He was surrounded by flowers. They were

Paper flowers. Bright paper flowers
"Is this a dream?" he thought...

The wind was softly whispering in his ears
As if singing a lullaby
Lulling him back to sleep
Unable to control himself, he lay back...


Through the trees he could see
A colourful sky -
A wonderful abstract of hues 
of reds, greens and blues...

And then it began to rain
the raindrops were calling out to him
"Adrian... Adrian...
You do not belong. Leave before you're taken!!"

Adrian got up, slowly walking
He didn't want to leave this place
He'd never been so peaceful in his life...

And then there was this noise
A disembodied voice
like metal grating over metal
Speaking to him,

"Adrian, You're mine to claim"

Adrian began to run
as fast as he could
but a shadow was creeping up to him
a black shadow with a human head...
But...

Balloons

Posted by Shrikant on Saturday, March 22, 2014

You and I, and a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone

Floating in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine red balloons
Floating in the summer sky

Ninety-nine dreams I have had
Every one a red balloon
Now it's all over and I'm standin' pretty
In this dust that was a city

If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here
And here is a red balloon
I think of you and let it go


Woopsie... I have only 3 balloons and only one red :P And each one has a persona of its own :P :P

Lyrics from 99 Red Balloons by Nena. I have skipped the rest of the song as it is kinda toooo violent for a mild mannered person like me :P

Life is a Song - Part 5

Posted by Shrikant on Tuesday, March 04, 2014

Turn up the radio
I need the music, gimme some more

It was a catchy number by Autograph. Sakshi kinda liked it but her mind was elsewhere. She kept glancing at her phone. And then there was a slight beep. A notification. An incoming chat message. She quickly accessed it and read with a slight smile.

"Hey Sweety VGM"

She smiled,"Hi Dheeraj, Happy Monday!!!"

"Groan!!! What's so happy about Mondays? I hate Mondays!!"

"I love Mondays. Get to meet all my friends after 2 whole days."

"Poor dear!! You dont seem to enjoy weekends. No friends to hang out with on weekends?"

"No na, you always seem to have plans. You never hang out with me. :("

"Oooooo!! Girl is trying to flirt with me!!"

":D :D :D"

"Anyways. Whatcha doin?"

"Me on the way to office. Listening to radio in the cab."

"Okies catch ya in office."

"Wokay. Ciao"


Now listen
I wanna shake, I wanna dance
So count it of one, two, three
I hear the beat, I'm in a trance
No better place to be

Daytime, nighttime, anytime
Things go better with rock
I'm goin' twenty four hours a day
I can't seem to stop

Turn up the radio
I need the music, gimme some more
Turn up the tape machine
I wanna feel it and you know what I mean

Now that she'd spoken to Dheeraj, she felt quite peppy and energetic. She was even jiggling in her seat to the beat of the song. The song had just finished when she reached her regular breakfast joint. She walked it. It sure was crowded. Once more. Like always. She liked the place. But she liked it to be a little less noisier. But there was nothing as good as this place so she thought that she'd have to bear with it. Bear with it and hope that it will become less crowded in the days to come atleast when she wanted to visit it.

Looking for a table to sit at, she noticed that there was no empty table. A bit disappointed, she was about to leave when she noticed someone waving to her. It was Vivek. He beckoned her to sit at his table. She smiled gladly.

This guy - Vivek was a dreamy person. A nice person, from what little Sakshi had interacted with him but dreamy. He was always in a world of his own. And always had got startled whenever she'd spoken to him.

"Hi Vivek!"
"Hi Sakshi... Happy Monday!"

She looked a bit surprised. Pleasantly surprised. How did he know she liked Mondays? Her turn to stutter. "Uh.. huh.. Hmmm.. Happy Monday Vivek!" A smooth recovery with a dazzling smile. 

"So what makes you like Mondays, Vivek? Most of us hate coming to office on Mondays.. excluding me of-course. I hate weekends. Tooo boring. You can call be a workaholic if you prefer, but I love coming to office."

Vivek took time to take all of this in. It was the first time that Sakshi had uttered more than a single sentence directed towards him. Slowly he replied, "Yeah me too. I hate sitting at home. It's more fun being outside."

She'd just given her order when her phone jingled again. It was Dheeraj once more. Her face lit up once more. As usual!!!

"Yo, Sweety!!"
I hung up the phone tonight
Something happened for the first time
Deep inside
It was a rush
What a rush
'Cause the possibility
That you would ever feel the same way
About me
It's just too much
Just too much

Why do I keep running from the truth?
All I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized
So mesmerized
And I've just got to know

A second beep from the phone brought Sakshi to her senses. She'd been staring at her phone lost in David Archuleta's song.

"Dreaming dearie?? or writing a story for me?"

"No no.. was just lost in thought. You say"

"Dearie, could you step in for me for just a little while. I know its Monday and all and you'll be having a lot on your plate. But I need to be somewhere right now. Will be in office by noon. "

"Oh sure Dheeraj, don't worry. I'll try my best so that no work remains stuck just cuz ure absent. You want me to give the boss some excuse for you?"

"Naww.. just tell the old man that his best employee is gonna be slightly late :P I don't think he'd be mad. Not more than he already is :P"

"LOL Ok. I'll let him know and I'll get all your calls diverted to my desk till you return. You get your work done. Will meet you at noon."

"Awwwww... you're such a darling <3"

":) Take care."
