Kalyani Nandurkar replied to the topic Children movies you must watch.
I have seen Chillar Party and Koi Mil Gaya although I can't imagine why it is labelled as a movie for kids, and I have read reviews of The Blue Umbrella and Stanley ka Dabba, both of which are really good. Tearjerkers such as Anjali cannot be labeled as a movie for kids, movies for kids should be more positive and entertaining in a simple, light way which they can understand. Taare zameen par is also a good movie and an eye-opener for parents but for kids, it is overly emotional and heartbreaking kind of movie. I would never show it to my son.

Taare Zameen par and Koyi mil gaya , which is anything but a children's movie are the ones I have seen ... Earlier there were some good films like Masoom, Ab dilli door nahin which had good music and were entertaining, with a clear messaage for all

For those interested in renting out a room or a portion of the house on a temporary basis, this is a good idea ..
Have vacant rooms at home? Rent them out for short stays to people just like you. Host any liveable space and turn it into a homestay and make money.

Let me interrupt at this point, first no librarian would want to say or purchase pirated version neither librarians are authorized to place orders for libraries. But as for these two books I bought and read I got them from a local vendor who sells all kind of banned books including... you know what I mean. The one was Lajja in Hindi and the other was Satanic Verses.
That's what I thought as well...Most circulating libraries including government libraries buy new books from proper shops.However, private libraries may buy some books that are pirated if the readers have no objection.. If I paid money to read I would definitely kick up a fuss if there spelling mistakes, a few pages turned upside down etc , which is what happens in most of the pirated copies . And the said library to have all the listed 8 books in pirated copies is beyond my imagination !

See, some combinations do become hit but that does not mean no other combination will not work. As you have pointed out that Mukesh sounded so melodious in Anand for Rajesh Khanna and in the same movie even Manna Dey was fabulous for the same hero. In recent years we have noticed that Sonu Nigam and Shaan sang for almost all the big stars and they sounded so refreshing. Actually, lipping by the stars must be done properly and it can make wonders.

Reading pirated books cannot give true enjoyment to a reader. A story book does not only offer a story but the readers relish the writing style and the error free language. Even the pages of a pirated book are of cheap quality. Thus, reading those books will just convey the main story and nothing more that but people are left with no other choice when books get banned.

Both of them are extremely fortunate to receive such a help from Railway Minister. If it continues to be so then we can hope for some achhe din.

Of course politicians in India mostly talk of welfare measures on the platforms and forget the moment they step down from the Platform.
In this case, Suresh Prabhu did not forget but done whatever he has to do as the true representative of the people.

Reason behind $3 trillion per year is not good quality of products, it is because of focus of China is on quantity. Most of we are using China's products and we know very well how is quality of these.
The quality of Chinese products imported in to India are mostly spurious. In addition to this Indian traders are making the goods in India itself and printing on the the labels as Made in China.
I think Made in China level is not have good image in India so buyer purchase goods after reading made in China. Manufacturing of products of low cost like China is not possible in India.
In all countries you have good quality goods and cheap quality goods and China is not different.They have a huge population and some of them would be churning out cheap goods and make a profit selling it in other countries.Our markets are flooded with electronics, mostly the use and throw away types , made in China , sold for very cheap price. I am sure some people are happy with it because they can at least buy and enjoy something even if it is only for a short time , which otherwise would be beyond their reach .

before few day Railway minister, Mr. Suresh Prabhu helps one lady when he received message on twitter. Now yesterday he again help one person when he received message for help of twitter. It is an example of Achhey Din.
Personally, I feel that it is the duty of the politicians to help out those in need, that's part of their job , but sadly in our country politicians do anything but that. Most of the time they behave in an arrogant manner and inconvenience the public and throw their weight around, so when someone like Suresh Prabhu behaves in a humane manner it gets publicised. In a way it is good to see it and hopefully the others too their bit of helping the public rather than be a burden and a nuisance ..

suni51 replied to the topic Tasting wine- Is this best job!.
No company in the world introduces many wines everyday. Wine tasting is unlike tea tasting which is based on blending of different kinds of tea and taste them. No single produce however good in quality will taste good in its original form but it will have to be mixed with other produces even if from the same garden but blended in different way and developed differently.

Dear Anil. Your link is not working. Anyhow, Suresh Prabhu's gesture is exemplary. And I sincerely hope " Achhe Din "will certainly take a shape in the days to come.
But here this link is working just I checked it. If you want to read complete news than check Danik Bhaskar of 30 November. This type of help I never hope in our country.
Sure I will do it. We were used to exploitation of the public by the previous governments. So naturally such good deeds look strange and unbelievable to us.
Also tweet this like to Rahul Gandhi so he know how to serve people of country.
Rahul Gandhi is a thick skinned politician. Even with hundred tweets , he will not understand. It's a waste of time.

Nowadays there are great schemes offered by various tour and travel companies. One has to plan for a trip quite early and keep an eye on these offers. Usually, such bargains are quite beneficial. Those who do not want to travel with any tour and travel company need to look for all the details very minutely to make the trip less expensive.
At times a return ticket and a weekend stay at Bangkok is less expensive than flying to Delhi from Bangalore ! This is normally during off season and one can really get a fabulous deal during that period !

Yes not is not possible to make low cost products like in China is not possible in India. But the reality is, in India because the manufactures are using spurious raw material, we are able to make such products which look like genuine Chinese products on the surface only.
