munnabhai meets mahatma gandhi!

when a movie 'lage raho munnabhai' was in production phase,its title was 'munnabhai meets mahatma gandhi'. on first week a little teawala boy on studio came to know that its remix of munnabhai mbbs ...

He went to give a tea to the music composer shantanu moitra.Conversation between that boy and moitra was like this.

boy:"saab, is film ka nam kya rakhela hai?"
Mr. Moitra: "Munnabhai meets Mahatma Gandhi"
boy:"saab,Munnabhai to pata hai par ye mahatma Gandhi kon hai?" !!

but thanks to director of this movie. After watching a film no one will ask this type of question atleast for next 10 years.

Bestselling Books

My office is one n half hour far from home so I pass 3 hours in bus and I have now made a habit of reading books... specially novels.

As per The Book Standard , 200 Bestselling Books of the Year 2005 are here

but I am aware of only 15 to 16 books from list.I mean I have a long journey ahead to read all these books.I will read all books one by one until 2006 list will be released.

One thing I noticed is that each book contain a nice title.We are saying that naam me kya rakha hai but in my case if a book title seems to me very unique or attractive then i will read that book first.From where these authors are carving such wonderful titles? 'French Women Don't Get Fat' ,'Black Rose','The Mermaid Chair','Why Do Men Have Nipples?','What To Expect When You're Expecting'.......

just 150 things !!

i want all * to convert into bold very soon...

me aur meri bhulne ki bimari:Hum sath sath hai ...

I dont think so (see the title)..but people around me (specially my parents) have 100% doubt on me .

today in morning i wear an outer on my top which could be used in winter so mom told :"switu..i think u forgot which season is going on ?"

me:"i know mom but in office i cud not tolerate very low temperature of ac in this rainy season thats why "

mom (after 2 min of laughing):"ohhh :) but then what people in office will think ?"

me:"charul is suffering with fever "

and my guess was right ..bunch of peole advised me to take a leave to rest and also greeted me to get well soon.

but my parents have strong proof on my bhulne ki bimari ..

before 6 month on one fine day i went to my friend's home and we planned to go to movie and I had to take my return tickets also so we went to

ATM first and inserted card in machine but suddenly i forgot which was the third and forth digit of my password ...i was knowing password was

something like 45** but last 2 digits were totally evaporated ...

my friend :"forget it !! i have money ..we will manage it "

me:"No yar, I cant forget password..let me try "

but my(also friend's) knowledge in banking was very poor and we werent aware that password trial is limited.so after my third trial ,ATM card was

locked.I saw message on screen "your ATM card is blocked. for further help please visit our office!! "

(just before 2 days mom was giving me money but i told (like typical hindi movie actor) : "ma, ab me apne pero pe khadi ho gayi hun ")

but after ATM card blocked i thought ;"ma, ab me apne pero pe khadi ho gayi hun aur ATM card ke password bhul rahi hun"

I didnt informed my parents abt this incident that time and went to bank after 2 days. Bank manager was knowing me very well bcoz of my

company so i decided to meet him and solve my problem.he was in meeting that time so i waited outside his cabin ..
one lady (may be manager's assisant) was there and from last 5 min she was observing me so finally she came to me. I saw 2 kg thick make up on face including dark lipstick and mobile sized earrings. I thought how girls can manage with this make-up and can get more than 1 hour
to do boring make up everyday?

lady:"may i help u ?"

me(woke up from research of make up ):"yeah, actually i wanted to meet Mr.Chavada"

lady:"any reason ?"

me:"I lost my credit card password so its blocked and now i want new password"

lady:"for this small small matter we cant disturb manager"

(me:"ok then give me your small small ATM card also with password "..ofcourse i cudnot told )

me:"umm but he knows me well so he will surely help me "

lady:"see miss...."

me:"charul"

lady:"see charul! you can put your application over that counter and we will get back to u "

and i saw manager coming out of meeting and going in his cabin
i rushed in his cabin ..that lady also came with me

manager:"Hello charul, how r u ? pls take your seat."

me:"thank u sir..m fine "

that lady was still in cabin
manager :"yes charul , tell me. any problem ? "

me:"sir, my credit card is blocked so i came here to know whats further procedure to unblock it ?"

manager:"for this matter you will have to send written application to our main head office signed by me to ask them for new password. wait let me call to main branch officer ..before that give me your account no."

I gave him my ATM card no written on card.that lady did a quarter smile.. i didnt understood.

now that lady who was standing there from last 10 min got chance and told to manager "sir, its atm card no. not account no."

manager:"yes leena..u r right. this searies is of ATM card."

me:"ohh sorry sir! but right now i dont remember my account no "

manager:"well charul..u r working in well reputed company and you should not be so irresponsible..atleast u might have your passbook right now.give me account no from there "

me:"sir actually i forgot it in office"

that leena again got big smile on her face and i felt irritated by her lipstick as well as her smile.
manager got my account no by searching my name.

manager(angryman now):"How can u forget your password ??"

me:"dont know sir..but this happened to me first time,i can remember my yahoo password,gmail password,msn password,skype password,blogger password,company mail password also so many other passwords but i just forgot credit cards password sir. "

manager:"ok ok,I am giving you one letter which you have to fax to our main office as our fax machine is not working and u will get your new password after 2 or 3 days "

me(happy):"thank u very much sir"

leena told to manager abt some pending documents.so manager told me if I could fax it to main office along with my application.

yeh leena to picha hi nahi chod rahi hai ...

I took all that documents only bcoz i respect manager otherwise if leena hoti to i would have done small small pieces of that documents as i dont like girls like leena.

after that i informed whole incident at home .I did fax to main office (without forgetting fax no... my memory power is very sharp u know) with hope to get my new password asap.

just after two day my memory power came back from comma and i saw 4523 in dream which was password of credit card . I went to ATM machine and tried it. as after 24 hour my card was unblocked so i could try again by my password . I enetered password and got money.I was so happy by getting my old password again.in this excitement i jumped :"Yes yes i got it "

security man :"pehli bar ATM machine dekha lagta hai "

back to blogging

I m back to blogging ...
and i felt its being after long time and i promise it will not happen again
when i started this blog i never thought to leave it and i will not ..

life is quite normal but i never dreamed it to be so normal.I like things very adventurous and excited, all days are same here , I never imagined myself doing coding n all this stuff all time.I dreamed at age of 10 to become civil engineer.i was knowing only 2 things abt civil engineers at that age that they have not to seat on one seat whole day and they are making big buildings so it made me so excited at that time.

After time passed and my mind level got increased I came to knew about MBA guys and specially marketing people. this profession also made me crazy.people in movies with big tie and big cabins.my little mind was thinking at that time that these people have to visit everyday new people and new offices and all that stuff.I came to know that companies also give bike,mobile and other extra allowences to these guys so i always wanted to become marketing manager from that age :)

And my mummy papa was thinking that switu (my nickname yar)will become a doctor but luckily I cudnt perform well in board exams and got into software engineering. I feel really lucky not to get into medicine. Its really boring profession for me from my childhood.and I gave reason to my mummy like this "study 5 years to get mbbs and work hard until u clear your MD and journey yet not stopped dear. who will build hospital for u (I would have built it for u as a civil engineer :)"

so after all I became IT engineer and I never thought of other profession during my 4 years of study but dont know today in free time I just realized how life takes you to your treasure. You just need to hear soul of world as said in book alchemist.

One day !

If one day you feel like crying...
call me
I don't promise that I will make u luagh,
But I can cry with you..


If one day you want to run away...
Don't be afraid to call me
I don't promise to ask you to stay,
But I can run with you.

If one day you don't want to listen to anybody,
Call me.
I promise to be very quiet.

But,
If one day you call
and there is no answer...

Come fast to see me,
Perhaps I need you.
