Hi Friends,
It has been long time since I wrote in this blog....
Well, from this title you would have guessed the issue that we are going to discuss,
All our fellow Indians (irrespective of their state, origin, education, profession) used to spit here and there in roads, bus, train, shopping mall, railway platform, bus stand.....almost every where except in their "home". We will spit where ever we are, but we never do this inside our home..even if we have to spit..we will run towards wash basin...
Why this habit is not coming in public place... the reason is negligence... We never bother about neighbors, co passengers... we take it for granted every thing including disturbing others.
We never mind to spit from bus or train, simply we will open the window and do this.... we wont walk towards toilet and do... Just think off..... in our home, we walk towards washing place to spit , but in train we never tried this, just open the window spit..it will spill over the passenger sitting in next window.... then quarrel with each other..........
From bus.....I had been a victim.. one of our senior citizen spat over me with pan in plain shirt and face....as I was heading to office, the worst part is he didn't even bother for such happening... like a dog I shouted on him but no use...
So the time has come to take a pledge....."Being an educated person, competing with the high speed world, we Indiana should not spit in public place and public property.... even if u feel like spiting due to cold or pan.... just control for few minutes and look around for washing area and proceed...., even if others do this...we should politely tell them not to do so..."
Hope you all agree with this... Wish you all "Happy Republic Day"

Megaserials in TV - a new dimension
I hope you would have read the last to last post about the mentioned title....
Now I have something interesting about to share....
Few days back I read in news paper that NDTV is launching a new entertainment channel NDTV-imagine, the great KBC famous Sameer Nair will be the CEO....
Coming to the title, The Ramayan serial will be screened in week days in prime time slot (9:00 to 9:30 PM). This seems to be very strange decision and some how very bold in commercial in point...
Why because, The Ramayan is mythological in nature..now a days people are not showing any interest in all these...and the story is well known to all.......this is the view of a common man...but
Our creative CEO gives new perspective and is logical too....
In 1987 The Ramayan was screened in DD, and it became revolutionary in TV industry, those days. The entire India was stalled during 9:00 to 10:00 AM on Sundays.
Now its almost 20 years passed, and for younger generation totally it is new, this new epic will be a cat among pigeons, as all other channels are screening saas-bahu serials like kolangal, selvi.... so this will attract the viewers for a change that too with loads of morals and ethics for life.....
Moreover the number of television homes has increased from 6 million in 1987 to 118 million in 2007, also 560 million indians are <25 years age, so a whole generation has missed the previous one.
...this calculation is very positive and creative....It will be a grand success....
But I am little concerned that..our copy masters (I mean other TV channels) will start the same and similar serial in theirs... (now one can witness this by watching Star vijay, Sun Tv, Kalaigar TV.... if one program is successful, the same will be copied in all without any change)...
but even if they copy such a good serials in theirs....again its good only and spreading high value and good quality of life to the young & Future India.
.........Contd.............

Health and Diet
This is year beginning, so its not too late to take a resolution on food habits for the year...
I have something to share with you all....
In Indian(South) food system the rice content is more and sometime its abnormal.... if you look at the complexion and physique of western ethnic region...they are pretty looking and hansome, if not all these qualities at least not with pot belly, extra growth, handicapped and so on... why I am referring west is...they have good diet system, they take lot of green vegetables, very minimum oil consumption and of coarse their weather also contributing for their complexion...
We Indians are crazy on junk food... we take lot of fat content and cholesterol as junk... somosa, bajji(we have invented 100's of variety in bajji), bonda, bakkoda...this list is endless....
We Indians take more vegetables than any other ethnic group..but we consume not as green, we are frying it in oil and adding masala and chill to have taste, in this process the vegetable looses its good quality, actually its not serving the intended purpose.....
We need to have more amount of fiber to increase our short term memory, as our country is hot, our diet shouldn't be too hot(dont go to andhra mess!!!!).
We every one should take a resolution that...."This year 2008, I will avoid Visiting any Hospital for illness or taking any pills" (for those who are <35), and those who are 35 +, they can frame their resolution based on their present health condition.

Mega Serials in TV channels
Well, in the late 20th century the satellite channels have come up and most of them are 24hrs channel.... Initially there were variety of programs and lot of creativity was there...
But in recent days the scene has changed.... in all channels you can find only Mega serials...this is an important issue for every houses...
To my knowledge no serial is showing a positive or good things... you will find all kind of cruelty, unethical and extramarital relationship, revenge within family and family members, most of the serial will have woman villain.
The above said qualities can be found invariably in all serials in all channels irrespective of language, party, region in India.
All elders have become addict to these serials... they couldnt sleep with out knowing the happenings in serial... they are living with in the megaserials... all the bad things and evils shown in mega serials will have impact in their life and day to day activities. Certainly the school going kids in any house are also watching the serials along with their grand parents...so the young mind is also getting corrupted.
Something has to be done on this... Elders can go to temple, read the magazines, join in a gym for physical exercise, join in yoga course, or even I would say, they can engage them in any kind of social activity.
I am not saying, one should not watch serials at all.... but one should never watch all the serials from 5:30 PM to 11:00 PM.. This is really maddening. I would suggest, restrict yourself to some 2 or 3 best among the worst serials .....
.......contd..............

India and Indians
The title would look very conventional for you... I just wanted to share my views about our fellow Indians and how we are habituated to disobedience, clumsiness, unhygienic..and so on.......
First lets start with Road Traffic.......
In India there is no path way for pedestrians and cycle raider...
All pedestrians has to walk in the road along with two wheeler, four wheeler and off coarse with heavy vehicles too... this is very pathetic and unsafe situation. But one should remember we are still a developing nation and we cant afford to have a separate path way for pedestrians and bi-cycle raiders.
Then what is the solution for this... who will take the responsibility?
All of a sudden one should not blame our politicians or political structure.... or the government... the first step of solution lies with the responsible public...
The initiative should come from both the pedestrians and other vehicle drivers...
We dont pay much value to the life of others.... we always take the tings for granted....
We are either not aware of traffic regulations or not prepared to abide the regulation. We spend lot of time in TV serials, gossiping, sleeping, killing time in doing nothing, Cinema..and many more... the worst part is we will not have patience in waiting at the Road Signals for at least 60 seconds.... Everybody will act like as if they are the busiest in the world.... and every second is countable..... we can ensure and improve the road safety by not showing urgency....
..........Contd.....
