Mind Speaks - 4

 “अगर सब कुछ मिलजायेगा ज़िन्दगी में, तो तमन्ना किसकी करोगे

   कुछ अधूरी ख्वाइशें ही तो ज़िन्दगी जीने का मज़ा देती है “

A loose translation of this in English.....

If we get everything in life, then what we will wish for. It is those unfulfilled wishes that will give us the joy of leading the life.

Well said...  सच ही तो है :-)

Postings of " Mind Speaks " reflects my current mindset.

Note :- There are some minor mistakes in Hindi. It is due to the inconsistencies when English is getting translated to Hindi. I think lack of a proper Hindi keyboard is still a lacuna in the computing World.

Tu Meri Zindagi Hai from Aashiqui / Lyricist - Sameer

 " पहली मोहब्बत का एहसास है तू

    बुझके जो बुझ ना पाई वो प्यास है तू

    तू ही मेरी पहली ख्वाहिश

    तू ही आखिरी है

    ………………

    ………….

    ……

    हर ज़ख्म दिल का तुझे दिल से दुआ दे

   खुशियाँ तुझे गम सारे मुझको खुदा दे

   तुझको भुला ना पाया मेरी बेबसी है "

Usually, say if there are 5 songs in a film, then only 1 or 2 will be a hit. 

But " Aashiqui " is an exception. All the songs of this film are super duper hit with good lyrics and good music. Some lines get etched into our memory, these are such lines.

If these lines kindled the interest about lyrics in you, then watch the below given lyrical video.

Ae Dil Hai Mushkil Title song / Lyricist - Amitabh Bhattacharya

"    जुनून है मेरा, बनूँ मैं तेरे क़ाबिल

      .............

     ..........

     .......

      माना कि तेरी मौजूदगी से ये ज़िंदगानी महरूम है

      जीने का कोई दूजा तरीक़ा ना मेरे दिल को मालूम है
      तुझ को मैं कितनी शिद्दत से चाहूँ, चाहे तो रहना तू बेख़बर
      मोहताज मंज़िल का तो नहीं है, ये एक-तरफ़ा मेरा सफ़र

      सफ़र ख़ूबसूरत है मंज़िल से भी
      मेरी हर कमी को है तू लाज़मी

      अधूरा होके भी है इश्क़ मेरा कामिल

      तेरे बिना गुज़ारा, ऐ दिल, है मुश्किल  "

Tamil -1

In School days all I know is that Tamilnadu means Madras and their mother tongue is Tamil. That was the only thing I know about Tamilnadu and never and never in my dreams, I thought I will be coming to Chennai to make a living.

After Studies, all my Friends shifted to Hyderabad for better oppurtunities but, I am the only guy who shifted to Chennai to learn VLSI. Ofcourse, I am not working in VLSI but in SAP that is all together a different story.

Chennai is a Metropolitan City and very well I could have managed with English but I learned Tamil only for the reason that when I look back in my Life I should have a satisfaction that "Yes I know how to speak few more languages other than my Mother Tongue".

I spend weekends mooning around the webspace, listening to advertisement Jingles, Music, watching snippets of different different movies on Youtube.

But, when I watch snippets of Rajnikanth's speech or Vijay's speech at their Movie Audio launch or Movie success meets then I feel very happy that I am able to understand their speech word to word even though I can't speak as fluently as they can. Especially, Rajni Sir's speech, I will get tears in my eyes, I will get goosebumps. It is then I feel content and happy that it is good that I learned Tamil otherwise I would have missed out what they are saying.

Rajni knows very clearly that he is not a Hero material in terms of looks but it is some magic and God's grace that he is a Super Star in the Tamil Film Industry. He is very simple and grounded.

Tamil Film Industry is the only film industry where Hero's looks doesn't matter. Example is Dhanush and Vijay Sethupathi. There is all together a different post about Dhanush that is going on in my mind since a looooong time. When I find time I will post it.

Till then enjoy Rajni Sir's speech at Vettaiyan Audio launch.

Good that I learned Tamil... :-) :-) :-)

Closing comments "Nallathu, Na Tamil Katthkute" :-) :-) :-)

R I P Sir Ratan Tata :-( :-( :-(

 One of the Quotes from Late Mr.Ratan Tata.......

"Ups and downs in Life are very important to keep us going because a straight line even in an ECG means we are not alive."

Rest in Peace Sir. :-( :-( :-(
