hey ppl.
the devil is back in the blogging scene.I was temporarily disconnected owing to the "EXAM PRESSURE".....
firstly let me advise all the MBA aspirants not 2 pursue this goddamn degree...
its too stressful and demanding.. even if u survive it (even by a margin), the placements (carrot at the end of the stick) is a far flung dream... thanks to the heavy word RECESSION...!!
now,.. coming back to the ICFAI BUSINESS SCHOOL EXAM For 2nd sem... ur marked on the basis of ur paper but on how ur neighbour performs.. yes this distorted system is called relative grading.. it can make ur GPa or break it..
An important Qualification/trait u have is MASKAFYING! u must be capable to butter ur faculty to the hilt...in our parlance it is called A** licking..! very very essential (iam poor @ it so less marks).. this is in lieu of internal marks.. they form crucial part of ur grades.
Exam time in our hostel was sight to behold... everyone awake till the wee hours of morning... making coffee @ 3 in the morning for a bunch of girls who feel like burning the book cover to cover..!
and we greeted others by "are u able to study? how much did u complete?"
whereas i was " excuse me ? which exam 2mrw? portion??"lol..
our nerves were frayed to the last neuron..so much to cram.. so much to understand.. plain and simple SO MUCH !! but less time..
i actually went blank in HR paper.. thanks to the sleepless nights earlier..!
the variety of mixed emotions found after the exam was hilarious.. esp LAw and Finance papers.. only word which everyone ( i mean 540 students) said GOT RAPED !!!!
yet everyone was dutifully logged in Gtalk and with their Superb Taglines....
i had never studied so much in my entire life as i did for this exams.. i just wanted to clear all papers and not give summer term..phew.. it was streneous !!!
chalo at the end of the day, we got raped by few papers and we managed to rape few papers...
right now my whole batch is chilling @ their homes and waiting in anticipation to see whatt the SIP time turns out to be..
All's well that ends Well..

Bollywood..!!
The hindi movie industry has come a long way from alam ara ( the first talkative movie)... many directors,actors,actresses,singers,musicians etc have proved their talents consistently. well since it is a huge topic to b discussed, i rather prefer to write abt things that fascinate me and my own perceptive.
i loved the way mughal-e-azam was shot and its music.. i mean the way the sets were constructed, the jewellery and the songs were mindblowing..! the way madhubala danced for "pyaar kiya to darna kya" was mesmerizing... loved the shot when she says ( pointing at akbar , well potrayed by prithviraj kapoor) ab bandon se darna kya ! ...mashallahhh !!!
Loved all item numbers by HELEN !! wow.. she had the oomoh and cutzpah of rocking the screen... be it mehbooba mehbooba, aa jaane ja, yeh mera dil or monica .... she was awesome..!! her clothes were a step ahead of their times and she carried it off with elan...!!
the haunting,slow and fast music ( in short retro music) has its own charm..... be it aayega aanewala,mera saaya,om shanti om, waada raha sanam,kitna pyara wada etc... were like a soothing balm to ur senses....
the couples in bollywood had a sizzling chemistry ( hard to find it these days) examples: neetu--rishi, amitabh--rekha,rishi-dimple etc ... these couples were usually only for reel... but i would have loved to see amitabh and rekha together..
moving to the present.. we find very hyped and no substance movies.. i was lured and duped when i saw saawariya.. i mean common i didnt get my money's worth ( it would have been worthwhile if i saw ranbir fullly nude lol).. the most trashiest and certainly not expected from sanjay leela bansali... TASHAN... god plz forgive our sins when we actually saw the movie(or anyone who evn thought abt it).. awesome publicity campaign.. but no damnn story
We literally have to leave behind our brains @ home when we step in the threshold of a theatre (oops i mean multiplex,theatre is so passe)... but yes we shdnt forget out wallets for the $2 worth coke... this is price discrimination !!!
Loved the movie BLACK and taare zameen par.. i actually could relate to the characters and their apathy..!! wow.. that was hard hitting..!! i cried copiously thru the movie...
i just love shahrukh.. he is cute and hot but his movies goddamn it make no fucking sense.
i mean take kuch kuch hota hai... his line " pyaar ek baar hota hain,shaadi bhi ek baar hoti hain " so ba****** why did u love and marry twice?? huh??
next we see kal ho naa ho.. which is hailed as a innovative movie because it introduces homosexuality to indians.. ( aint we familiar here mr.johar??) .. i mean that movie was a mockery @ times to different situational crisis. !
well.. cant think of a specific movie now to bitch..( there are toooo manby to cchoose from)..
am sure the producers are saving a lot in the costume dept. the ladies get skimpy or fab inida stuff to wear(so they feel the character lol) and the men appear to be wearing their own stuff..
the Toast of the season these days are the low budgeted movies targetted at the multiplex junta.. i mean the movies a wednesday,the president is coming,dasvidaniya etc were actually path breaking,thought provoking and sensible..
when will other producers and directors wake up and realise that the audience have matured and evolved..we dont want see actors running around (ooty) trees, or crying (thanks to glycerine) etc... we want them to be real characters.. to which we can relate to etc...
and one advice, cut the publicity rumours and the crappy stuff..!! stop projecting ur lead actors in an false affair(which they deny hoarsely) just to pull audience in theatre..
FUCK u .. i am not paying 160 rupees to see a trash movie in a multiplex..i can download it and just fast forward watch it..hell with piracy laws etc...
well these was a quick take on bollywood..
plz post comments and views.. also suggestions for the next blog topic..

Namma Bengaluru...!!!
Bangalore..Bengaluru...Garden city...India's Silicon valley.. Pub capital of India...!!
Bangalore has been accredited with various titles and attributes over years..! Bangalore was founded by Kempegowda in 1537..( now u know why majestic bus stop is named kempegowda bus stop)..! It is the fastest growing city in India currently,thanks to the educational and IT boom..!
Bengaluru boasts abt many acclaimed Educational Institutions ( in many fields like medicine,engineering,management etc) and has a magnetic power to draw many IT engineers(lets call them geeks or techies).. thanks to the IT boom !!
When i first landed on the shores of Bangalore ( not in literal SHORE sense) i was apalled to see the cultural mix in my college.! I felt like iam seeing the world finally..!! i found out abt new castes and communities of ppl and to learn their attributes (helps u in a long long way lol..)
The point iam trying to put across is the fact that we find a wide variety of communities prevailing in bangalore..example: coorgis,malayalis,tamilians,marwaris,gujaratis,bihari etc. It is truly a Cosmopolitan culture..!!
College and their Students: there exists a healthy rivalry between colleges ( iam speakign abt undergraduate colleges). each tries to outdo other in various intercollegiate fests held.! the famous colleges being Christ,St.Josephs,Mount Carmel College,Jain college ,Jyoti Nivas college..!
Students are bigger item numbers than their respective colleges.. always found in brigades,forum and al theatres possible..! their Fav words being F***,Shit,wht da? wht Ra? etc..!
the dressing sense is very casual wherein guys loaf around in just a t shirt and jeans and girls in t shirt.jeans and a cardigan..!! a bag is a must for these kids..and girls are partial to rockstars chappals.!!
Weather: the weather in bangalore is 24/7 happenign !! i mean to say it is very pleasant and romantic..!! morning are chilly and nights cool..!! hai....!! u feel lost in this dreamy place..! ahem! it can also rain without warnign! in short.. Bangalore Weather = Eccentric !!
Brigade Road and Mg rd! these roads shd be rechristened as Loafer streets..! we find guys (also uncles) just standing and mouth looking(ogling) at girls... and girls parading down the street wth their girlfrds..! shopping is cheap and bargainable.! it has an array of stuff to pick from.. from branded till non branded stuff..! depending on ur pocket status !
Brigade Road is very congested owing to the heavy traffic and the pedestrian traffic..! u find loads of foreigners ( @ times getting duped by unscruplous dudes).. MG road is almost the same like brigades but little bigger.! MG barista is the most happening place on that street !!
Traffic... eesh.. this is a negative image which is potrayed by the city i.e. their is no proper traffic regulation and roads are christened one way overnights..! this poses a lot of prblems for travellers..!! long jams are equally apalling !! moreover the roads in bang are Mashallah !! i think the MOON has lesser craters than our roads!! lolz..
Pubs ! aptly titled pub capital of india!! u find booze and pubs at every nook and corner of the city.! minimum 10 places on brigades and mg itself..!! we find only rock music predominating the pub scene in the city..!! however,the new deadline of 11 30 Pm has seriously scrwed up the night life..and has ensured anger among the partying crowd..!!!
Parks: Lalbagh and cubbon park are the 2 most famous(also infamous) parks in bangalore.
more than kids and joggers u find romantic couples here..!! u see various degrees of indecent behaviour here..!! a treat for voyeurs...!!
CCD: bengaluru is the birth place of the most popular chain of coffee shops CAFE COFFEE DAY ! this is THE place to hang out,hold informal meetings etc..!! u find one in every nook and corner of the city !!
Restaurants: a wide assortment of food in terms of affordability , cuisines,ambience etc is offered in bang !! one thing is for sure.!! no man goes hungry here.!! darshinis (small south indian joints) are found in abundance..! however north indians find it very very difficult to adjust in bang due to the fact that the staple diet in bang is RICE. one warning to such ppl ( my personal view) STOP complaining abt bang food 24/7 !
Commercial Street: the mecca of shoppaholics in bang!! u can bargain easily here.! however chappal variety is YUCK here.!! i think Delhi's lajpat nagar is 1000 times better!
Kanakapura rd: it a black mark on bang! i dunno wht made IBS to situate itself here.. total industrial area.. no security for girls, no place to eat !! yuckkk!!!
Autorickshawallahs!! they r supposed to b a boon but turned out to be a bane..! their demands and tantrums go sky high when a little drizzle occurs and when the clock hits 8 Pm.! disgusting to the core..and if u dnt heed to their demands and manage to get a seat in auto . be prepared for a longer route..
the auto rates can seriously burn a hole in ur pocket ( esp if ur a student ASK ME )! u know we shd ask them where they wanna go and then hire it !! they r impossible!
Bmtc buses: the most cost effective and economical way to travel... only thing u will need to battle is men (esp uncles ) leaching and Huge aunties with their massive behinds..!!
i think i have effectively summarized abt bang!!
hope u enjoyed reading it..
