Leryn Franco , an Olympic Sensation or Sense of a Nation

Olympics opening ceremony ....
Once created a wave , can strike when it gets a chance .

I am talking about the much talked 2008 Olympics  Javelin player , Leryn Franco

No offence , But my entire mood of watching the opening ceremony was turned into something else !!
I cant take blames here ! She was too hot to wear that sizzling hot red dress . It just made her too hot. And the camera man did a really good job on good focusing !!

Thanks to Paraguay for understanding her abilities and give her the right place to play !
She made a huge wave in 2008 , and now she has done it again !!

Do what ever you want


This part of writing gives me real happiness. I am going to express a true lot of incidents and accidents in my path towards finding myself !!
My Life was an unplanned trip. Always ends up with something less or more !!
But it really worked for me . It gave me a hidden truthful lesson to get a prepared trip !!
Now I believe that am walking though a planned path . A seat in the great Film and Television Institute of India, Pune for Sound recording Course . A supportive group of people around, a good vision and a 5 year plan in heart , a laptop to scribble all I want and a place to post all my thoughts J

But to reach here , it took a lot out of me !!
But before I talk a lot about myself , let me tell you something very clearly .
Even now , what I say or claim as a planned path is a planned path for just me J
For my relatives and even for my mother , it’s the most stupid decision I have or anyone could possible take in ones  life . But I have been a stupid for myself all these years , until now J
So stupidity is subjective and as I am writing here , I am subjective over my side J

I always had a coffee and chat with the toughest times ….
It gives a one to one dealing with how you can be more crazier J
Days just went and I loved the craziness in me .
I started understanding that I am not dead and I have something in me to live for …
A deep passion , like we heard in the movie INCEPTION J
An idea …. An Idea , once implanted into ones mind, is soo powerful that it can change a lot J



I have a kid within me yelling out for a lot different things .
Having nothing was always my feel , when everyone described me as the perfect life with everything
A day or the other I ask myself , is it worth to do what ever we want ?
If it makes you happy and feel like living , yes !
If it makes you feel good , and do more, yes ….
I had unhappy days of doing all sort of things which never wabted to do, but did .
Starting from changing of many schools in my life (I finished my schooling in a total of 4 schools), followed by getting into engineering college instead of an arts of college , then going to a regular job sitting in front of computers and not doing anything creative at all ….

Life was horrible . But in between I tried to do something which makes me feel good.
Watching movies always was a medicine for me .
I got my queen of my life , and I met her during my first job in software .
The only reason I have to say that I am happy about my first job J

Then it was her inspiration to find a better me in me !
She found my interest in music and sound recording .
It was during my first job in a company called UST Global, when I was a little active in singing, composing and recording songs and sounds , that I found my good interest lies in Sound recording .
I bought a Philips Dynamic Microphone – SBC MD150 from Music world and a sennheiser headphones !!I dint know what to do with it , but I wanted to record professional quality sound .
I bought some headphones , and some wires and joined a guitar class .
I recorded some sounds , but it dint really come up well.
Noise was every where !!
Then I decided to do something for this .

Then came FTII …..
A new chapter in my life .
It was on 2008 …
I was researching in internet over this , and she pointed out FTII is the best place to learn about sound recording !!
Then I did some research and understood what she said is right !!
But we came to know the sad news that just 2 days back they closed the intake of forms for that year . Thus we missed the deadlines …
Then waited for one long year , and gave my first attempt , years went on and many things happened in my life – Both good and Bad ….
And this year , I am getting into FTII .

Finally the question is
Are you happy ?
Yes , I am …..

That’s all it takes and matters
Do what ever you want ………….

Story is not over yet and will never be :)

Gangs of Wasseypur’s 16 year old treasure


Gangs of Wasseypur’s 16 year old treasure


When I heard the news that Sneha Khanwalkar is doing the music for the next Anurag’s movie, I was sure that she will come up with something really good . But this is great .
Following the same trends is good, it will give you success and name .
But getting something out of your own , might not always guarantee you a great success , but a high level of satisfaction . In her case , It gave her both- success as well as satisfaction .
I am talking about the 16 year old girl named – Durga .



Her high pitched rustic voice was heard by thousands and thousands of locals travelling by Mumbai Trains . She is actually from South India . Like Jamal and Salim of Slumdog Millionaire travelling though their life in trains , she travelled sweeting the ears of local Mumbai travellers !!

And it was in one such local train that Anand Surapur (Director/Producer) met her , which was when her train took a U-turn !!
Now her voice is viral over the internet ….
Her voice is famous through the song – Chi Cha Leather !!



If you hear the song, you will feel that you have heard such a voice before !!
Where else , must be when you are travelling by some trains .
And you will also realise the fact that you have not even given the child anything !!

But the point is that this reveals one beautiful fact !!
There is something beautiful inside everyone
Either you find it , or someone else finds it.
In both the cases , you have found you .

Find yourself ….

This time when I was coming from Pune back to Chennai, I met a small boy who attached a tail behind and walked and sang songs like Hanuman (Hindu God) . I also saw some making fun of him . But I loved him , as he was very keen in getting all the attention and doing really good on what he does . I don’t really want to go deep into the regular talks of travellers like – We should not entertain beggers , or people like these . But I gave him 10 rupee . It was just for his guts or fate to attach a tail behind him, while children of his age would attach bags filled with books and tiffen boxes filled with protein rich food prepared by their mom !!
Keepint this in mind is always really good .
Everyone have something within him or her .
You might be good at something .
But he/she might be good at something else .

Respect yourself and others

Durga’s album is about to be released soon .
She is not going to sing for you in local trains for free any more J
Let her have a great life ahead .

Dumped on facebook


Dumped on facebook
===================

Where to post my new born baby's picture for others to see ?
Why not create a profile in her name in facebook ?
Oh ya .... That would be a perfect idea !!
When she is grown up, she can start using that same profile too !!
Yes , there by we are prooved modern parents !!

Facebook ....
The name describes it ....
really it is going in that way that a facebook is the best place to
learn someone ... His family members will be listed out ,
his education , his work, his girlfriends , his ex , his personal pictures,
what more is required ...

soon a day will come , that instead of resume , facebook profiles will be used !!

But as long as things go good, all is well !!
How secured are our future in facebook ?
One strange friend request comes a day !!

Its up to u, to accept it or not !!
Who knows if its some one who is trying to get your information !!
Once you accept it , tadaaaa .... there it is ...
a full access to your pictures, your data , your family members ...

And most recently the breakups and suicides and even suiceide notes are spreading across in facebook !!
And the worst part is people posting RIP over the wall of a dead man;'s facebook profile !!

Wow !!
Its cool to know that dead people have access tp their facebook !!

Jokes apart ... This has already gone viral !!
I wanted to write this , as i was really disturbed by a recent article
"Dumped on Facebook, IIM Bangalore student commits suicide"!!!

http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-09-20/bangalore/30180030_1_mba-student-hostel-room-boyfriend


It was really disturbing for me !!
Relationships have come to a state where , people wait to get someone to change their status of facebook from single to "In a relationship"!!
This has become an electronic life !!
People are just taking realtionships as just to show people !!

The story was about a guy dumping a girl , followed by updating his facebook by a comment
"Feeling super cool today. Dumped my new ex-girlfriend. Happy independence day." !!

What the fuck !!
A relationship is a beautiful thing !!
Why does it needs to be put like this in a public forum ?

People have really lost their minds !
They want likes and comments !!
Life in facebook is not really stopping in facebook !!
It reaches to the real life , beyond the screens and keyboard !!

It is infact beyond the awareness of individuals !!
