Happy Birthday Anup!!!

I dedicate this post to one of my better friends. It's his birthday today, so I wish him a very happy birthday. I am talking about Anup Nair.

We have been friends for past 4 years. I still remember how we met for the first time. It was Vikrant who introduced Anup to me.  At that time Anup was in IT branch. If I am not mistaking then he was the last guy to enter the computer's batch that year. Since then it has been a healthy competition between us. We have had really great moments along with Maddy, Sidscope, Tha, Sili, Piu. In fact we have worked together in so many projects including virtual stock market, CSI and organized GK quiz. I know it must have been really tough for him and Maddy to put me and Sidscope out of their final year project team.

He is a smart guy. Not a typical mallu though. He knows a bit of marathi too. He isnt a bookworm but really loves to read books. The only competition for him in that field is Maddy. He can be a little arrogant at times, but not with his friends. His hard work has already paid him off as he has got into Microsoft R & D. Oh ya, how can I forget about this? He is one of the biggest flirt from vjcomps. There was one time he was one of my targets for "teasing". Not now though. Best of luck to him for his future.

Raja Shivchhatrapati Lyrics

इंद्र जिमि जंभ पर… बाडव सुअंभ पर… रावण सदंभ पर… रघुकुलराज है ! पौन बारिबाह पर… संभु रतिनाह पर… ज्यों सहसबाह पर… राम द्विजराज है ! उदरात माउली… रयतेस साउली… गडकोट राउळी… शिवशंकर हा मुक्तीची मंत्रणा… युक्तीची यंत्रणा… खल दुष्टदुर्जना… प्रलयंकर हा संतास रक्षितो… शत्रू निखंदतो… भावंडभावना… संस्थापितो ऐसा युगेयुगे… स्मरणीय सर्वदा… माता-पिता-सखा… शिवभूप तो दावा दृमदंड पर… चीता मृगझुंड पर… भूषन वितुंड पर… जैसे मृगराज है ! तेज तम‍ अंस पर… कान्ह जिमि कंस पर… त्यों मलिच्छ बंस पर… सेर सिवराज है ! जय भवानी, जय शिवाजी !   Thanks to Nik for sending this.

My Favorite Song

I always loved marathi songs. Be it the usual film songs, or the ever spiritual bhakitgeet. I am great fan of Vasant Bahar (the collection songs by Vasant Desai, Vasnt Prabhu and Vasant Deshpande). But all these songs were recorded in older times, before the 80s. In fact there were not many songs from the 90s which were really great. The emphasis was more on Comedy and the music paid for this. In fact there were songs which were "combo" songs containing the marathi versions of many popular hindi songs. Post Shwas era however has been much more encouraging. There were some amazing numbers like Radha hi Bawari, Man Udhan Varyache, Malhar vari and more. The song which I am going to mention here was an special addition  to the "Aga Bai Arechya.." audio CD. It was got the modern touch which I think is essential for Marathi songs if they really want to compete against the Hindi or Punjabi songs.  Sung by Swapnil Bandodkar, this one is at the top of my favorite songs list

शायरी

कुछ बिखरे सपने और आँखों में नमी है, एक छोटा सा आसमां और उम्मीन्दों की ज़मीं है, यूँ तो बहुत दोस्त है ज़िन्दगी मैं, पर जो खास है वाही पास नहीं है ....................
