Aakhir Kiska Dosh !!!


Aakhir Kiska Dosh !!!

Context:
We define Horoscope as positions of planets - sun, moon, mars, at the time of person's birth.  Therefore individual's persona, behavior is often defined by the birth sign the person belongs to. In India Horoscope remains as one of the base criteria in Arranged marriages, in case of love marriage, desire n decision of relationship is driven stronger and hence less priority is put on Sun signs. Astronomy is one of the oldest sciences, which deal with the study of celestial objects (such as Moons, Planets, Stars, nebulae, and galaxies); the Physics, Chemistry, and Evolution of such objects;

A person is often predicted to the sun sign he carries; attitude, behavior, intelligence, success or failure in life is often measured against the sun sign.  There are twelve different sun signs. There is a term called “Manglik” which says, the person has Mars in his/her 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th 8th or 12th house of Vedic Astrology.  Thank God I am bad at Numbers, I will never wish to understand this numerology in astrology. Horoscope and Astronomy are more or less similar; hence My debate may refer to either of these words. 

View 1:
If planets help to define a person’s state – First thing, Have we understood Our own planet Earth yet?
I won’t talk about Indian Meteorological Department, who don’t even understand the technology and equipment used for weather forecasting. Let’s talk about US and Japan, both leading economies across globe, and even the most innovative and driven by high technologies. Both the countries still suffer huge losses during floods and natural calamities; however even if they forecast well, Why aren't they able to save their own countries? Japan has been suffering calamities since years, yet Incapable to Control. So what’s the use of Weather forecast?? Even if a Single innocent person loses life in natural calamity, it’s a shame on the country!!!

Have we understood Life? I am not referring to being immortal!! I am asking about birth cycle, answers to AIDS and Cancer is yet not assured. There are so many diseases that are not even Named. There are so many Creatures on our earth itself, their life cycle, their existence is to be studied yet.
When we aren't even able to understand Earth, its impact, and its geography, How does other Planet affect individual’s life? Who Cares!!! Useless!!!

In case of being Mangalik, its actually the bad timing that the child came into the world. Right!!! If you aren't aware, In India these days all the deliveries are done using Scissors; which is actually an abnormal way of baby delivery. And hence as the delivery is done using scissor, the date and time is actually planned very well and respectively delivery appointment is scheduled earlier. Hence that mean, Delivery date of a child can be controlled if the expected date falls as Mangal grah divas(Mars day), so whether the new born kid will be mangalik or not, is controlled using scissor based delivery. Eventually this leads to a conclusion, since this technology of scissor based baby delivery has come into public, no more mangalik kids will be born, as we can control birth timings.
Does this mean, concept of being mangalik was into picture only because people weren't aware of such science until now? Or Is Science responsible, as they invented the technique to control a kid being mangalik so late???

Aakhir Kiska Dosh:
Who needs to be set responsible for this crap?
The child, who choosed wrong time to enter this world? Or the Doctor who did an operation on wrong time, he could have opted to go to loo for some time to avoid the hourly dosh? Or the Parents who choose wrong time to bang, so that their baby got delivered during so called mangal or odd days? Or Science, which brought the technology of scissor based surgery so late?
The kid is born n brought up hearing, that he/she has got Mangal in his/her sun sign and hence has to be very careful in planning all life activities.

Developed Countries:
Developed nations never believe in Horoscope, they being matured in their living life style, they are absolutely neutral about Race, Castes, and Age for marriage, widowed lady, and horoscope. India will always be underdeveloped only coz of our customs and traditions which make us understand to differentiate based on castes, religions, age and horoscope when it comes to marriage and match making. When illiterate people talks about this, I get a weird smile, or feel pity for the person, as he is uneducated and doesn't understand things. But when highly educated person believes in same, they actually spreads the word of being belief into such customs. 

No doubt our Indian Economy and infrastructure is improving, however the people who encourage such discrimination or rather even who believe in such discrimination are biggest threats to our Nation's Development (only then India can move into a Developed Nation league).
I am not sure, but somehow Thanks to Indian jurisdiction, so far we haven’t reached to sun sign based job distribution; who knows next time any form you may fill in , may ask your sun sign to get a job or degree?

In Movie Oh My God, Kanji bhai also said same in a statement, for a new born baby, during his television interview.
Munna bhai also said dictated same in Lage raho Munna Bhai, mangalik based discrimination.
Shahrukh khan also said in SWADES, that we are not in good shape coz of our Customs and traditions.
  
I believe there is a very Narrow line between Belief and Superstition, it’s good to belief on something and live for it, but it’s absolutely Foolish to turn from a belief to superstitious about anything. Same is the case with horoscope; I may respect it, but will not take it for granted every time. I am not a Believer in this Astronomy, I have never referred to my sun sign talk, although I may use it sometime when I will be going through extreme troubles, and all my attempts to recover back to normal will go in vain. But I will not accept this so called astronomy or horoscope for day to day activities, or will not refer this to make new business markets or new friends. Its you who need to decide, whether you believe in horoscope or are superstitious and driven by worldly assumptions.

Veer ki Ardaas Veera...


Veer ki Ardaas Veera...

First distinctive thing that this show has, it’s different in its appearance; it’s not usual Saree serial, which is an Gujarati or Rajasthani flavored. It’s more with traditional Punjabi essence and a more of a Punjabi desi show. Although that’s not just the influential factor of this show; acting, cast, storytelling, direction, and everything is fresh and good. Most loving thing about this show is the relationship drawn between brother – sister bond; The Innocence and adorable kids in the show, the boy being little rude in his attitude still makes you fall in love with him favoring the cause that he is fighting for, care for his just younger sister.  Being a north Indian drama, the picturization is done in northern village, where language is a mix of Hindi and Punjabi.

Story: Newly married couple stays happily together with their young boy; On Raksha bandhan, the little boy realizes the importance and a need of a sister; and hence demands a sister for him to his family. The father then brings a new born baby girl to home, saying she is the new Sister to the boy, boy gets delighted. The girl is due to some father's past history, that is bit of Bollywood drama into it. But worth noticing; Brother's Madness for His sister is beyond the hatred of all villagers. The way he fights for her happiness, and existence in his family is worth watching. The way he requests to God for the Celebration of his sister’s birthday name ceremony is Appreciable and applaud-able. After so long, I am in love with this drama. What’s beyond this, maybe we need to wait n watch…

Direction: Director has written the story in a very beautiful way, the way he has used the village and traditional outfits goes well with the innovation.  If I say a mix of cast, music, innocence, picturization; Director has outperformed so far. I believe the Director has worked nicely on the broadcast timing of the show as well. Show is released, when people are planning and preparing for Sant Guru Nanik’s B’day on 28th Nov, 2012. So I believe in a sense, the show is aired at the right time. Director has used factor "innocence" to win the audience so far, also the strong relationship between the husband and wife, mother and son or the brother and sister is well portrayed. Best dialogue that was telecast-ed during Promotions was: “A journey of brother becoming mother to his Sister”

Cast: The most highlighting part of this show is its cast; it’s not the regular faces that you see across Balaji telefilms, its fresh and with brilliant acting skills. The language is again the new, which is not usually used on the regular channel.. There is essence of naughtiness, love, and little attitude in the dialogues written, yet loving ones;
Ranvijay(Veer) - The young kid is such a cute and loving boy, who fights with his friends for her sister, even when his sister is not accepted by society. His father has encouraged him to be the Mard of the family and to take good care of his mother and sister.
Veera – Little Angel of the show, is the show stealer. I wouldn’t have appreciated, without this girl being on the Show.  The utmost beautiful and innocent baby girl artist I have ever seen so far is this Veera, Her smile, her eyes, Innocent gaze, wins the show. Innocence at its Best!
Other cast includes, Ratan – Mother of both the childs, Chaiji, and few more.

Title track/Music: This Title Track is the one of the best songs on the TV set these days. Track is composed by Anand Raaj Anand is heart soothing and loving. Lyrics of the track goes so well with the music and story, it’s Absolutely amazing to hear it, there are 2 versions of the title track available, with difference in the 2nd part of the song(Antra). Background score is again soft and soothing, seems like more of traditional instruments used for the recording.
It doesn’t matter to me if the music is worth to rest of music directors, I am not a music guru, I simply go with what suits my taste, may not be same for all.

Title Track Lyrics:
