Khwabon Ke Parindey Song -ZNMD
Ude, khule aasaman mein khwabon ke parindey
Ude, dil ke jahaan main khaabon ke parinday
Oho, kya pata, jaayenge kahaan
Khule hain jo pal, kahe yeh nazar
Lagta hai ab hai jaage hum
Fiqrein jo thi, peechhe reh gayi
Nikle unse aage hum
Hawa mein beh rahi hai zindagi
Yeh hum se keh rahi hai zindagi
Oho, ab toh, jo bhi ho so ho
Ude, khule aasaman mein khwabon ke parindey Ude,
dil ke jahaan main khwabon ke parindey
Oho, kya pata, jayenge kahaan
Kisi ne chhua toh yeh hua
Phirte hain mehake mehake hum
Khoyi hain kahin baatein nayi
Jab hain aise behake hum
Hua hai yun ke dil pighal gaye
Bas ek pal mein hum badal gaye
Oho, ab toh, jo bhi ho so ho
Roshni mili Ab raah mein hai ik dilkashi si barsi
Har khusi mili Ab zindagi pe hai zindagi si barsi
Ab jeena hum ne seekha hai
Yaad rahe kal, aaya tha woh pal
Jisme jaadoo aisa tha Hum ho gaye jaise naye
Woh pal jaane kaisa tha
Kahe yeh dil ke jaa udhar bhi tu
Jahaan bhi leke jaaye aarzoo
Oho, ab toh...
The Song-
This is one of the best songs I have heard lately. The lyrics, score and the song have an intense tranquility to it. Khwabon ke Parindey is a song that narrates the Feeling of Falling in Love.
An unsettling restlessness which will keep that smile and glow on.
A moment where worries, expectations and inhibitions will dilute and you would be as light as a feather and flow like a gentle breeze. Your ultimate moment of bliss which is real and not surreal.
Beyond which you are not baffled . Just at ease with yourself .A moment so powerful that even its mere memory will always infuse the same bliss into you as it did when you froze it eternally in your heart. And you would say to yourself, beyond this , "Jo bhi ho so ho". :)

Dreams on Wheels
First Day , First Show- Delhi Auto Expo 2012
Lights, Camera , Action...
Glitz -Glamor and Style. Auto Expo 2012 is nothing less than a big budget masala flick.
Walking miles and miles to see splendor of Machines on Wheels can be taxing.
Just a glance at the Beauties.Ahem Ahem..not the models but THE SHOW STOPPERS- THE MIGHTY MACHINES makes all the hard work of journey on feet worthwhile.
There is always a first time, and my first experience to witness total stunners backed with excellent technology was a memorable one.No photos can do justice to any of those machines which sparkle and entice you to look at them. I flirted with not one but many such wonderful machines. It was like all vital stats mentioned upfront for open admiration.The detailing on CC, bhp, torque , shockers etc just make these automobiles so much more desirable. You can differentiate eyes and attitude of Men drooling on technology/machines and the ones just there for cheap thrills.
I am still wondering what good would come from so much exposure of models of Indian and Foreign origins. We have clearly undermined the Power of Dreams on Wheels. The real automobile enthusiast would pay attention to detailing not of the Skinny models but the technology and styling behind the machines. Strangely I did see some grading system in utilization of models as well. Next to all new launches / stunners were no less than eye-opening models pulling more unwanted crowd than appreciated. Spectators scanning women in the spotlight deep down under. Behind their fake smiles one could sense their discomfort.The biggest flipside, those models know nothing about the machines they are standing next to. What a pity!
With nothing in hand and nothing in bank, I do have my wishlist ready for must haves before I die. The best was Harley Davidson. No frills only machines roaring of sheer and absolute stunners. Not a single Harley displayed was any less than the other. A rock band was playing to match with the spirit of Harley. Being much more than a bike they can be defining the person who owns it. A rarity on road Harley still has more X Factor than any of the high end cars, even the likes of Jaguar. Nontheless its a game of money and bags full of them at that.
For ones who are done with Harleys of the world, welcome to Triumph. No, its not a lingerie brand, Triumph is almost as phenomenal for women as for any bike enthusiast. They have range of bikes which can make your heart skip a beat when you see the Price Tags. Phenomenal bikes at jaw dropping prices.
A point worth noting is that almost all major automobile manufacturers are launching minimum 1-2 models this year. Be it Scooters launch, a range of SUVs or wonderful small cars. Curious eyes and guessing minds will be kept waiting till the final Press Con happens for all respective Automobile honchos declaring the much awaited launches for 2012. Surprisingly for a year which might see another Depression looming , Auto majors are very positive for the year ahead.
From a ward of Rovers to Cruisers to Fortuners to Maruti Suzuki's Alpha and more , many upgraded models of existing SUVs will flood the Indian markets and test the real waters. Tatas might have ruined the macho look of Safari by introducing its sleeker feminine upgrade Safari Storme.
The automatic transmission of Toyota Fortuner was awaited which is a 4x2 model with another variant with manual transmission which is a 4x4 model with headlamp washers.
However all the classics left me restless. Right from the vintage cars to Classy Gypsy did leave many awe struck. The much awaited BMW Mini (Cooper) was also launched amidst a jam-packed press-con. The luxury hatchback club would widen with Mini joining Beetle and Fiat 500.
Ferraris, Porsche , BMW, Mercedes Benz, Maserati, Jaguar and Audi etc were all out with their four-wheeled gems . The likes of TVS, Honda, Yamaha, Polaris, Hero, Suzuki, Firefox had alot to show-case too the the spectators. Millions of visitors have already witnessed the Year's Moto Extravaganza.
Young men were glued to virtual and video games with a clear "Need for Speed" bug biting them. Rowdy crowds did leave no stone unturned to create an Auto Expo out on the roads, the evening of 6 Jan when all roads to any "Pragati" seemed jammed and blocked. For a city which boasts to be capital of India such severe clogging was as surprising as spotting high profile men and women at the Auto Expo.
I had the pleasure to get a fleeting glance at Rata Tata, Sr Munjal maybe an SRK and Big B , Honchos of all major Auto brands & some prolific editors of Auto mags. And then they said that John Abraham was here, Katrina Kaif and many more. It was a tiring day as A high-heeled and a high headed girl saw her Dreams on Wheels. My list of must owns has even become a little more ambitious than it already was.
Auto expo is like an A list event, where all you can do is window-shopping and as you step out, you are aware that Technology not only changes lives but inspires us to dream bigger. Its indeed an excellent drive to achieve...Vrooooooooooom. Get Set Go.
PS- I am a person who does not know how to ride a car and has 0 knowledge about the Jargons of the world of Automobiles. This is just an experience which left me richer, even after loosing my wallet and a credit card usage of 15000 bucks not made by me. Guess, Every dark cloud has a silver lining. I lost my wallet but have bigger dream to chase.

Just like that..
Random thoughts keep flooding my mind, Always Just Like That. :)
Days become longer , darkness shorter.
Nights are sleepless & still I feel afresh.
It is sometimes great to think nonsense.
Afterall its just me alone in my world.
My plush life of abundance.
What harm can it do.
To Think through, Just Like That.
When flying high in the sky.
You switch seats to get a view.
And are in awe of An Artist you call Nature.
Painting clouds orange, white, blue and bright.
Imagining these clusters as Flocks of birds & far of Palaces.
Watching sea of clouds turn to a Polar bear.
What harm can it do.
To Glide In, Just Like that.
On a jam packed road.
Seated in your car at ease.
Your favorite song comes by.
Humming it with restrain.
Tapping your feet & clapping silently.
Shaking your head shyly, you look around.
What harm can it do.
To Sing Loud, Just Like That.
Being alone in thoughts is not being lonely.
When solitude brings more meaning.
When in a crowd you have no one to talk to.
You hear your voice assuring you,
"Why bother I am here, with you"
Still an unknown face catches your attention.
What harm can it do.
To Smile Back, Just Like That.
A time when your love hurts you bad.
Tears bring pleasure not sorrows.
Tired of the grim mood you are in.
You peered into the adorable guilty face.
In an instant your affection melts you.
You are healed and become weak.
What harm can it do.
To Forgive Him, Just Like That.
In your complicated life.
Noticing that love again came by.
You stop, smile and wink.
Wonderful outsider beams & it clicks.
To start to build your magical adobe.
Later see him turn cold, dejected again.
What harm can it do.
To Speak Out, Just Like That.
On a hostile winter rainy night.
Out for a stroll in the mist.
You disregard a tiny cranky pup twice.
Selfish, You cared not, but thought once.
Years later you cared more and thought not.
You went home to get food & showed love.
What harm can it do.
To Do Good, Just Like That.
To gaze at the limitless sea, surge.
Into Highs, Lows and Numbs.
Your heart's filled with endless emotions.
With joy, gratitude and pain.
Unaware you wander, salty waters roll down your eye.
And people watch, but should you care.
What harm can it do.
To Walk On, Just Like That.
Trudging an uphill is tough.
The heavy weight breaks you apart.
When risks seem unwise.
Your gut tells you to lie- low.
Rest for a while, its good.
Your will is strained, you sneak out.
What harm can it do.
To Give Up, Just Like That.
On your Judgement Day.
You tremble not.
The Voice Commands
"Why you lived on, Just Like That."
Will You say, I Regret Not.
Yes you will.
Because-
You Thought Through
To Glide In
You Sang Loud
And Smiled Back
You Forgave Him
But Spoke Out
You Did Good
Still Walked On
Not Gave Up.
YES YOU LIVED LIFE, JUST LIKE THAT.
PS- We are what choices we make, In the End Regret Not.
Life is lived, Just Like That.

LIFE ver 2.0.1.2
Welcome 1-Jan-2012
For last year's words belong to last year's language
And next year's words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.
~T.S. Eliot, "Little Gidding"
For last year's words belong to last year's language
And next year's words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.
~T.S. Eliot, "Little Gidding"
Could'nt agree more with the esteemed thinker/writer of 20th century.
What a perfect way to sum up a Year gone by.
World saw a transition, a change of yet another calender year. (2011-2012)
What actually changed? If at all anything did, would be our perspective. Maybe a will strong enough to accept and acknowledge - The Inevitable Metamorphosis.
Version 2.0.1.2 of life awaits you for better or for worse.
Perhaps New Years signify a collective decision of masses to change perspectives, habits and memories. In a world full of random experiences it becomes difficult to make choices and be selective in what we wish to learn/unlearn /erase from the year that passed us through. Do we let "bygones be bygones" or learn to value our experiences.
What to pick as valuable and what as worthless is going to determine what we become in Life as years go by as a social mandate.
No 365 days are the same and what we were last morning, we might not be this morning. New Years seem to be the time when we age psychologically and very suddenly so. On birthdays we are termed to age physically. Each year this day, I ponder and reflect the story of last 8760 hours that flew by me. How much was I able to hold on to? Not much. Qualitatively the year was not very enriching until it dawned this was as good as I could make it.
Last year , this day, I hoped that Life Ver 2.0.1.1 would be better than its yester-self.
Soon to realize that there will always be highs & lows, Life will be as unpredictable & will get more erratic as we grow grey. Every year looking into the mirror, something changes.
The quest to get better out of me becomes stronger while the fear to face another year lessens. This is what we call a Habit, though old habits die hard.
A year to realize that no thing and no one is irreplaceable.
A year to learn that with immense joys follow the deep crevasses of darkness.
A year to understand that permanence is temporary & temperance is mandatory.
A year where I met life in its raw ugly form and saw the best of me lost in the web.
A year where I knew every dark cloud had silver lining.
A year when I am unaware when the sun would shine.
A year where I am at peace with Life.
A year which will go down as dawning of eternal wisdom.
A year when journey became more important that the destination.
A year where all goals were blurred and new milestones appeared.
The year I grew up to LIFE.
To all those who stood by me , Its been a good one.
Am all set for another roller-coaster called 2012.
Virus struck, infected and cured. :)
Behold the light, behold the dark.
Swiftly in the sky I lark.
