How many of you are browsing channels on idiot box and wondering are there really 150 channels in your cable or the cablewallah has made a fool out of you! How many of you are picking up the newspaper on a Friday/Saturday and checking the cinema this week section on TOI to check may be there is some movie which is still playing which you have missed by mistake? Guys..I am really one of them!
I normally don't get bothered by strikes. If it's a petrol pump strike and there is no petrol in my car, I take an auto paying him 10 bucks extra as NBBRI tax (Non Bangalorean Born Resident Indian tax). If there is a transporters strike and there are no vegetables at home, I go out and eat a healthy and nutritious McChicken burger. But what can possibly replace the charm of watching a Hindi movie on a Sunday afternoon? I tried watching Indian Payjama League with double gutso this time around and also tried following Indian elections more intensely but now I am getting a yawn just thinking about these two things.
Ladies and Gentlemen - the time has come that we ask the govenment to give us our most basic right of survival on weekend - right to watch a movie! I just hope one day when all the Chiranjeevis, Rajnikanths, Amitabh Bachhanns and Shah Rukh Khans will plunge into politics and will pass this resolution and will give us the 7th fundamental right as an Indian citizen.
P.S. - Did I hear you say that Chiranjeevi has already plunged into politics? I also thought so but couldn't see any seats for his party in this election. May be time has come for me to get my eyes tested and brains twisted!

IQ badi ya Bhais
When I was a kid, GK was the most exciting subject for me (perhaps because it was the only subject with a multiple choice question paper and I was a very good student of probability) and since this is summer holidays across all schools let's refresh our GK.
Question No. 1 - Which Indian politician is responsible for the pathbreaking 1991 economic policy introduced in India?
Easy?
Question No. 2 - Which Indian politician was the first union minister in Indian history who had to resign because he was convicted in a murder case?
Did I hear...what was that?
Question No. 3 - Which Indian politican was responsible for formation of the first state government of India led by an independent?
Did I hear...Are u crazy?
What if I tell you that the answer for all the three questions is same....yes, the same politician is responsible for these three biggest and brightest (as bright as Fu(Si)doo's jokes) events in Indian politics.
OK. All of us will agree that the first question is the easiest one...so what is the answer for the first one...Did I hear Manmohan Singh? You must be kiddin...Manmohan Singh was not even a politician at that time...PV ke aaya Rao....no way!
Then who could it be?......My dear friends that great great politician is none other than Mr. Chi-Boo Soren. Yes, the same guy who had the vision to support PV ke aaya Rao's government in the no-confidence motion at that time. If you thought he did it for money you are grossly mistaken (just like No-Jeet Agarkar is about his batting/bowling/fielding/etc..etc abilities) He did it because he knew something great is about to happen which will change India forever. What's wrong if he charged a fees for that? Don't consultants charge enormous sums of money from innocent (actually very very innocent) companies for telling them what to do in a situation where nobody can do anything and hence the situation demands nothing should be done and at the behest of a consultant's advice actually nothing is done for doing nothing!
Confused! me too!! No wonder I consider myself to be a good consultant.
So, my dear friends the next time Shah Ruk Ruk Khan asks this question in the program"Panchvi phel se fudoo kaun" then you know what to answer!
