Plagiarism in Bollywood

I Love Cinema. I Hate Copying. Hence,Bollywood is mine target. I will remind all of you from where word "Bollywood" comes. It originates from this equation- {Bombay+Hollywood=Bollywood}. Our Bollywood truly works on this equation.Take a movie from Hollywood and carbon copy it in Bombay(now Mumbai). Bollywood represent India everywhere in world due to its huge market base.Those who know about cinema will be critical of these lines.I am also critical of it but it is brutal truth.Bollywood is not the face of Indian Cinema but merely an ugly part.Practically,it is quoted as an film industry because it produces 600-800 films per year.Ideally,99% films are foreign films wrapped in Indian format for recreation of viewers.Only 1% films are original or adapted.Rest of all copied from Hollywood,Tollywood or Korean Cinema. We,Indian Viewers do not either feel shame or anger on our films due to our ignorance.Most of our commercial movies are copycat of Hollywood blockbusters.Bo...

Reading is a Stubborn Habit.

I like reading books from childhood days. I am transferred to another land of beauty in my thoughts. I am enlisting here the books read by me in the time span at ITBHU. Most of them are not fabulous literature work but certainly popular ones in their category. 2007 Netaji Kahin - Manohar Shyam Joshi The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini Out of Africa - Isak Dinesen Shadows on the Grass - Isak Dinesen iCon: Steve Jobs, The Greatest Second Act in the History of Business - Jeffrey S.

You can see the shades of past on my present. Three words are enough on valentine day for me “Love Lies Bleeding”. Valentine Day is just another day in the history of ITBHU and mine. Nothing new has been done by me on this day. Remembering old memories was the best way to do celebrate Valentine Day. I remember that day when I was mesmerized by her first look. Image of her is a part of mine now and no one can take it from me, not even death. But that’s old story. I am murmuring the lines of Bob Dylan “ Like a Rolling Stone ” and often called myself 'Yayaver' to counter these feelings from now on. For me Valentine Day is remembering the moments of togetherness with her love. Now tragedy comes in other way. After many years, I put feeling of my heart on Google-Talk status. " I cannot emotionally attach to another girl after failure of my first love. I ask to my heart how to move forward in life ???" Tragedy of my life became only quotation for others.

A morning scene in ITBHU

Image
It sounds like freaking topic on first view to write on my blog. It seems like a school essay “A Morning scene in the village”. Hence, we should cut the crap part of its resemblance with any other topic and stop making parody of it. The scene is actually damn funny if you are involved in it. Now I will optimize the situation. An ITian really enjoyed the situation best if he is in 4 th year. With a job in the pocket, you feel like a saint devoid of worldly pleasures. Also to remind that winter will be best season to describe the scene. When the fog is in the air and sun is behind clouds, it makes you little more than lazy. But you have to get up for classes. The reason behind that is simple. It is due to short attendance. Hence all of us are in awkward position of presenting physically but sleeping mentally in classes. Alarm bell rings at its natural time of just few minutes before 8’o’clock. You whisper 'WTF' in your dream. Some harsh sound is threatening to destroy your roman...

Anti-NET Surfing Laws in ITBHU

What an average guy of ITBHU wants in his span of 4 years stay at institute with B. Tech degree. A little bit of free space and time taken from society to live best years of his life. He enjoys his life to full extent with little bit of studies of engineering. Most of guys aim for MBA, GRE, Core area or a Software job. Nothing more and nothing less is expected. He is self content with his studies, entertainment and extra circular activities. Surfing Internet is primary pass time for ITians except playing games on LAN or watching movies. He surfs Internet, watch movies (rarely porn) but all in limits. Guys uses proxy server to open the ORKUT or any other website (for minor purpose) banned by CC at ITBHU. Now all this is going to be changed by the shrewd behavior of our college. Now new software has been in testing condition by CC. They are using software called Websense . Some of the affected sites are imdb, YouTube, cricinfo, stage6 etc. It is the courtesy of this software that bloggin...

HALLA BOL !!!

Safder Hashmi(b. April 12, 1954 - January 2, 1989) Many youths of our generation do not even know this name.I was also accused of forgetting him in old memories.This name was invoked in me by the movie "Halla bol".The movie left me with little impression but the legacy of "Halla bol" was in my consciousness.I am telling you a story of a martyr.He died not for a noble cause in making world a better place for us. Today , belonging to a ideology is consider just a time pass. Mostly people are either too liberal or too restricted and highly influenced by dirty politics. Membership of club or resort is more credible than a joining a library .You don’t belong to schools of thought such as liberal communists or liberal capitalist or right of center .I doubt if today’s average college student either knows or bothers about this.It is lack of thinking or more self centered approach in life is responsible for this. Then why i am speaking on behalf of a dead man?Today developme...
