Nobody makes a compromise while making a film. All of them make films according to their predilection and their own value to the system. As a filmmaker, you live in the same world as your audience. Time and place are two great parameters to determine a piece of art. Your work will be reflected on the scale of faith and reason of yours in the object and environment surrounding it. Cinema reflects the dreams, aspirations, and hidden desires of society. 'Parallel' was initiated because true artists could not find their voice in the mainstream. The new wave had started because the previous one was becoming typical and stagnated. It was like revolt (mutation), not reform(evolution), against the old system of values. Most of the parallel cinema in India told of inequalities in society and the endeavor to change the system. Changing times bring change in society and the content of cinema. Now aspirational side is more credited in cinematic pieces of work than emotional reverberation. ...

Yeh Duniya Agar Mil Bhi Jaye To Kya Hai This is a famous song from Film ' Pyaasa ' directed by Guru datt. Lyricist: Sahir Ludhiyanvi. Anurag Kashyap is making a film, Gulaal dedicated to this song. "यह दुनिया अगर मिल भी जाये तो क्या है" यह महलों,यह तख्तों,यह ताजों कि दुनिया, यह इन्सान के दुश्मन समाजों कि दुनिया, यह दौलत के भूखे रिवाजों कि दुनिया, यह दुनिया अगर मिल भी जाये तो क्या है। हर एक जिस्म घायल, हर एक रूह प्यासी, निगाहों में उलझन, दिलों में उदासी, यह दुनिया है या आलम-ए-बदहवासी, यह दुनिया अगर मिल भी जाये तो क्या है. यहाँ एइक खिलौना है इन्सान कि हस्ती, यह बस्ती है मुर्दा परस्तों कि बस्ती, यहाँ तो जीवन से है मौत सस्ती, यह दुनिया अगर मिल भी जाये तो क्या है. जवानी भटकती है बदकार बन कर, जवान जिस्म सजते हैं बाज़ार बन कर, यहाँ प्यार होता है ब्योपार बन कर, यह दुनिया अगर मिल भी जाये तो क्या है. यह दुनिया जहाँ आदमी कुछ नही है, वफ़ा कुछ नही, दोस्ती कुछ नही है, यहाँ प्यार कि कद्र ही कुछ नही है, यह दुनिया अगर मिल भी जाये तो क्या है. जला दो इसे, फूँक डालो यह दुनिया. मेरे सामने...

Americans have traditionally maintained a romantic, love-hate relationship with the notion of nonconformity. Deep down, they each cherish an iconoclastic image of themselves. American movies and literature are full of rebel heroes and heroines who reinforce that image. At the same time (as these characters attest), we sure do resent it when other people don't behave the way we think they ought to -- that is, "like everybody else". I was amazed to watch " Dead Poets Society " movie from this perspective. I want to express my feelings about the upcoming Teacher's Day on 5th September before writing anything more. It will pass from the calendar like any other day. I just want to give some words, not in praise, but only in search of a true teacher. From the moment we enter the premises of the school, we are taught to sit in a row, be quiet, do not ask questions, do not interrupt the class, and on and on. This proves wonderful training for when the young minds le...

O Captain! My Captain! O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done, The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won, The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting, While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring; But O heart! heart! heart! O the bleeding drops of red, Where on the deck my Captain lies, Fallen cold and dead. O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells; Rise up - for you the flag is flung - for you the bugle trills, For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths - for you the shores a-crowding, For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning; Hear Captain! dear father! The arm beneath your head! It is some dream your head! It is some dream that on the deck, You've fallen cold and dead. My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still, My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will, The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done, From fearful trip the victor ship co...

O me! O life! of the questions of these recurring. Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill'd with the foolish. Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?) Of eyes that vainly crave the light, of the objects mean, of the struggle ever renew'd. Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me, Of the empty and useless years of the rest, with the rest me intertwined, The question, O me! so sad, recurring -- What good amid these, O me, O life? Answer That you are here--that life exists and identity, That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse. -WALT WHITMAN-1819-1892

To the Virgins,Make Much of time Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old time is still a-flying, And this same flower that smiles today, To-morrow will be dying। The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun, The higher he's a-getting, The sooner will his race be run, And nearer he's to setting। That age is best which is the first, When youth and blood are warmer; But being spent, the worse and vorst Times still succeed the former। Then be not coy, but use your time, and while ye may, go marry; For having lost just once your prime, You may for ever tarry। -ROBERT HERRICK1591-1674

Yajñopavītam - the "Sacred Thread" The hallmark of having gone through the Upanayanam ceremony is the wearing of the Yajñopavītam (Sacred Thread) on the body। The thread is circular, being tied end-to-end (only one knot is permissible); it is normally supported on the left shoulder(savya) and wrapped around the body, falling underneath the right arm। The length of the thread is generally 96 times the breadth of four fingers of a man, which is believed to be equal to his height. Each of the four fingers represents one of the four states that the soul of a man experiences: waking, dreaming, dreamless sleep and knowledge of the absolute. Ancient texts refer to the wearing of the Yajñopavītam in three forms: One is Upavītam, where the Yajñopavītam is worn over the left shoulder and under the right arm। This is for Gods. Upavītam is also called savya (Katyayana Shrauta Sutra &c.). The Second is Nivītam, where the Yajñopavītam is worn around the neck and over the chest। Nivīta ...

I have finally rejected to attend interview of BPCL.Hence the success rate of my appearance in interview in any company continues anyway.I have attended presentation and seen a guy justifying government sector with full statistics and data.I have also learned from last night experience about core mechanical subjects for preparation of interview. Puneet(chammo) was really unlucky for his myopic reason and i hope best for his(her) future. Srikant Bhaiya,another gem of supplement mines has got his job in TCE and its a happy moment to rejoice in a long day.Yesterday was the birthday of Neha...so only remembering her memories is now my reason for existence....

Looking yesterday, it feels a long time has passed. I have completed 22 years of my life just normally by inhaling oxygen from atmosphere. It is a poor joke putting headache on few of mine blog readers. I do not feel really great on my birthday except a beautiful birthday card from my sister. Nothing new happens here in the changing world but it is a jolly place to live. Celebrated birthday by sleeping next morning and missing all the classes.....

When placement gets tough,then six pointers of mechanical are rocking the institute.Rajneesh Tiwari ( RAJJO ) has cracked down a lucrative job offer from the KPO industry.It was a tough competition( only 7 selected in B.R. field) and his grades really rocked ITBHU like mine.Both of us have grades below 6. 5 in Mechanical Department and rank in the prestigious last 20 of our college grade wise.Hence, both of us not eligible in many core companies.He danced at the perfect tune of chance in this company facing 4 round for qualification.I really congrats him not only in real world but also in virtual web world for his success. His success is really slap on the face of teachers and kick ass on GMAT's who claim that grades justify the potential within the person. Long live the six pointers and mechanical saga of supplementary examiners...

My 2nd job was in CSC . I have got job in a company which is not mass recruiter but class recruiter. I had not attended the pre-placement presentation of the company. Only Tintin was one of the few guys from mechanical department who had attended the presentation. In the evening, there was huge rumor or information that it is a good company offering little money but a great career ahead. I was not informed about this news till evening. Then, Hathi forced me to go for CSC. I first rejected his views on this topic. I was having knowledge of loops only in C programming and was waiting for Evalueserve. When Tintitn told CSC had acquisition of Covansys, then I was ready to try my luck. In the night, chandan and hathi convinced me fully to sit and grasp this opportunity as most of the companies are closed to me due to grades limit. Next day was a big day; it was my father's birthday. I just went in the exam hall and gave test for non-circuit branch. Before declaration of result,...

On the eve of this event,no words can justify emotion within us.We are not only independent country now but a nation having democratic past of 60 years.To recall the struggle for independence is quite memorable but mammoth task at this small blog..'Unity in Diversity' is now our symbolic representation and future also.A good example to remember this red letter day is to present lines of a great spokesman of independent India. Tryst with Destiny This speech was delivered to the Constituent Assembly of India in New Delhi on August 14 1947 Jawaharlal Nehru.

CTS was the first company visiting the campus this year. Last year it has recruited 201 people from the campus including M.Tech. and M.C.A. The day began with end of a bad sleep. I slept 6 hours but could not get thinking about placement from my head. Presentation was at 9 am. I was well prepared for it and reached in time. I was accompanied by Hathi, bond, chandu, chammo and shukla. I have reached G-14 and occupied a seat. All of us started doing BC for time pass and presentation started near 10:15 AM. Presentation was good with emphasis on good working atmosphere and no bond on joining. A question of dollar depreciation was raised but not paid attention as they convinced no. of intake would not be affected by it. It was followed by aptitude test and all of us just sit together. Whole of ITBHU was on the verge of hope for placement.Future was uncertain but looked charming till declaration of result. Out of 370 including MCA and MTech, 250 were selected for interview. Toppers of each...

I was running to controller office to get my result out just a day before.I have got my result with 6.22 CGPA in hand on prior evening of placement. Now on the verge of placement, I was standing in front of mighty mechanical department waiting for our HOD to sign our Training and Placement Office (T.P.O.)form. Result of waiting was slightly vain but time had slipped off. Everybody was giving the sharp edges to their aptitudes, communication skills and me just talking to Kunal after being tired from a long day. After getting supplementary result, I have to rush to department for registration and then to T.P.O.; Then comes the mammoth task of taking job in a IT business solution providing company. Knowledge of my programming language is beyond the imagination of anyone. Just have handy information on loop in 'C'. Only knowledge of movies as a strong point of my resume. Watching thought provoking cinema was the best line of of my resume. Visit to Germany, also a good point in ...

I have got job in my pocket.A great satisfaction of mind in professional world comes from the bucks in your purse.I cannot talk about credit cards from this moment only... I cannot recall moment by moment events that had happened in last 24 hours,but it was molding of me in new avatar.I have got potential in me to get a job in a mass recruitment company after unsuccessful stint in academic life w.r.t. grades.It does not matter to me what the package,this IT company offers. I have got the required boost in first attempt and it will inspire me for future. I will now also say some words of thanks to my parents,sonal,bhaiya,friends and especially to ITBHU.I know the success makes you humble but its just a starting...
