The BOOM……
What is BOOM…. Blast? Right, ohh wait, I am not talking about the bomb boom…… nor anything about the Terrorism!!!! Have you referred the latest additions in Oxford Dictionary??? Check out for the ‘The Boom’. I suggest they must correct the meaning of this word,
The boom means RETAIL!!! Yes, the biggest intimidation in retail world in India. The latest booming environment in Indian economy is Retail. Couple of years back there were many discussions at every level about this sector. And the time as been arrived. Where ever you go, you see Retail Shoppe, anywere, everywere!! Many big business enterprises have entered in this sector, MORE, SUBHIKSHA, RELIANCE FRESH, any many others. Though they are BOON for massive households in the country, because they deliver everything to your door step with the minimum possible price. What more we need. They deliver the fresh and as cheaper then the sabji mandi. As you click into Google you get anything you need, as you step into these retail shops you get everything right from paste toothpaste, masale to sabji as well!!! The lifestyle is changing, the economy is changing. Still why worry about these boom then??

Let us discuss the other side of this zone. We all know the unsuccessful story of Reliance Fresh in Uttar-Pradesh. The U.P government asked them to shut their shutters!! Can you imagine the big giant in investment sector is failing and been pressurized from different states to shutdown their shops? Ambani, who become No.1 in any field they enter, then how does this mismanagement happening. How they are failing in capturing traditional agricultural market in states like U.P, Jharkhand, Orrisa etc. how does Reliance strategy of ‘farm to fork’ failed? Reliance decided to invest around 25000 crores within couple of years in its retail chain with including agricultural products, creating millions of direct and indirect job opportunity in the country! (Imagine how this will help in changing country’s economy and employment). When Reliance started its retail chain in country in November 2006 with an unprecedented scale, it was predicted that it will be the only one to lead in this unique sector, but soon there journey came to halt with many agitations by traders, shopkeepers and many NGOs in few states and they were forced to close their shop as well, and adding to it the broad thinkers like Marxist rulers in WBengal and the most literate states government (kerala) have prohibited its entry to their state!!
There were rally’s by Traders and shop keepers for ‘Quit Retail’ movement in different metros these days. Reliance thought it would be the Swadeshi champion and will threaten the foreign multinational like WAL*MART to settle in the country but no sooner they were fixing their roots in their swadesh, the anti-retail agitations lumped them with the foreign big boss-WAL*MART.
I thing Reliance must have not studied the lobbying power of the traders in the country. When these traders have interfere with the introduction of VAT in state like Uttar-Pradesh for years, then how will they neglect these retail stores which have affected many rural intermediates.( Intermediates are the people or the agents who supplies the product from farmers to the market). So does Reliance have failed to understand the rural sector?
They could have thought by managing politicians and bureaucrats would suffice in this field but, they fail to understand the political economy of direct farm supply chain!!
I remember few years back few big companies entered in agricultural products for the purpose of direct buying from farmers cutting the intermediates! I studied about the successful project by ITC in this sector called E-choupal, last year when I was working for my project on RURAL BRANDING of India. I studied about the kiosks called e-choupal started by ITC for buying food grains like soyabean, shrimp and coffees directly from the farmers which helped them to earn more compare to selling to the intermediates. When ITC enter directly into rural India, they first studied the basic needs of the farmers, though Reliance tried to do the same while buying products directly from farmers but how does ITC succeeded in gaining the farmers supports and also of the intermediates is by managing and satisfying the intermediates as well, they used several strategy like instead of directly dealing with farmers, they used the strategy that every kiosk of e-choupal will be handled and run by a local large farmer known as sanchalak. They trained these sanchalaks to run their kiosks on commission basis, with providing information to farmers about current market prices, weather, etc, which made these farmers much more helpful. Thus this helped the ITC to gain major influence and support of large farmers.
Secondly as far as I remember they also used one more very successful strategy, buying the grains like soyabean from mandis. Even making the kiosks in many rural parts they kept buying from mandis as well because their e-choupal project was affecting these mandis a lot like the Reliance did. And to gain some support from the biggest treats like intermediates, they also hired many intermediates called samyojaks. Their duty is to facilitate the transportation from farms to their hubs; they hired many mandi labours as well for the transportation. Thus, involving the large farmers, intermediates, labourers, with giving them income opportunities ITC was successful in reducing the tension of their opposition.
As compared to ‘Quit-retail’ movement, Reliance is facing these days, the ITC faced the agitations in Madhya-Pradesh as well, in around 2000-2001. But been successful in gaining the faiths of the farmers and instead of behaving like a big company they tried to satisfy their basic needs, they took the help of many rural development agencies and positioned e-choupal as not just an business but a public service too, by taking farmers feedbacks as well. Thus, starting its first step in 2000 ITC has around more then 6000 kiosks round the country….
Thus what would have gone wrong with the big giant like Reliance is that, with lack of knowledge about rural market and investing with a huge amount, rural people (farmers who initially always afraid of big companies) looked the retail chain with suspicious manner. Though their strategy of ‘farm to fork’ is profitable to the farmers but they failed to satisfy the intermediates and the traders with giving a big bang without gaining their confident… but these traders and NGO’s were not threatening to other retailers like MORE and SUBHIKSHA just because they might have not made a big bang like Reliance to show how big they are!!!!
Anyways I would like to conclude this topic without discussing further because this is the area which has lots of thoughts and suggests as well. I was following all the print media to know about the Retail Industry in India since months and just thought of sharing some of my knowledgeable think with you all. As far as the oppositions of Marxists is concerned, let me declared that the opinion about the Marxists and other state governments is made by my favorite editor of TOI Mr.Swaminathan,(editorial page) so if any issue regarding that particular point. Please do not mess with me, as I am not at all in power of messing with these political bodies!!!! I am also eagerly waiting for entrance of WAL*MART in India to see the perfect tamasha of the Retail sector properly!! :)
Thankyou.

My Summer Training!!


Ok.. hmmm hey m in DELHI. I was so exited to join my company for my summer training…. That day I was just imagining that I m going to enter the corporate world. Me n my team, with excitement, entu, and confident went to office early in the morning. Though the time for office was 9.30am we reached there by 8.45am!!! isn’t that idiocy?? (so u can imagine how exited we were!!) my office was just few meters from my pg. we went to office. There was no one except the security guy. He asked as to wait and he called to the HR head ms Reema!!!
I spoke to her. As I said I am from ISBM pune,
she replied… SO???
I took a pause for 2-3sec, I continue that me and my team is here for the summer training.
And I got a shock to hear what she said!!!!
She said, karan, I have informed your institute not to send any1 before 1 may (we were there on 16th april)!!! As we are shifting the office, no 1 of your senior manager is free to guide u people for next two weeks!! Better u people join after two weeks!!!
Now I got a pause for a while,
said, karan u there?? What happen? I requested her to meet once, she agreed and promised to meet us as soon she reaches the office!!

How bullshit!!! We are here for NO REASON!!! We paid for our accommodation in advance and they are asking us to join after two weeks!
Who should be blamed? She??... We???... Or the institute?? who never informed us about this!!! At around 10am she was in her office, she came to us in the waiting room and exclaimed, Oh my God!! The entire team is here!!! We stood with unwanted smiles on our innocent faces… the same conversation started about that they told the institute..bla bla bla….. later we requested here that we r in town so lets do something at least get started with small research work or anything but again she informed that all of them were sold out for next two weeks!!! She concluded with saying that she will give a call in next few days!!!!!
That’s how my summer training started!!!. With surprises n excitement more then imagined!!! We have paid more for the accommodation because our PG was too close to the office but now they were shifting 7-8 kms from here!!!!!

Now, how to spend these remaining days??? The place m leaving is a DLF city, gurgaon.. I can say it a city of malls!!!! bt hey guys, here r only malls!!! Nothing else!!! No small shops, no kirana shops(as I was use to it) no barber no HOTEL nor the restaurants!!! Only big malls….. Pizza’s….. Burgers…….n bastard Robbins….. (Oh I mean baskin Robbins!!)!!! Bhai ye main kaha agaya!!!!! Anyways i gotta television set in my room so not a problem!!! The whole day I keep changing the channels until I get to see sum good ads!!( programme dekhne ki adapt chut gayi na, bus ads ads n ads!!!)

Hey also lemme tell u bout delhi metro!!! It rocks man… Delhi is 30 kms apart from Gurgaon, but u need only few bucks to travel as there are many caps, or call centre cars running towards Delhi all the day.
I traveled from one corner to other of Delhi in 20-25mins!!! first time when I entered the metro station with my buddy, I was standing on the platform. A classy n clean platform cannot imagine that I was standing at a railway station in India!!! The entire platform was empty,, I was in karolbagh metro station.. You don’t have to wait more than a minute for the train… the train came in a speed, stood front of me. Oh wow!!, is it a bullet train I see in the Hollywood movies!! Only mirrors covered the body!! I was watching myself in the mirror swollen with pride and soon the doors opened. Ohh my god, the next second I came down to Earth!!! As soon the doors opened, the huge bulk of people rushed out of the train at a time. As I was not prepared for that, they pushed me back few foot!!! Ohh I remember our Mumbai local!!! me n my friend managed to enter the train n soon the doors were shut!! Oh…. So many people!! Kaha se aye bhai!!! Anyways, A/C thi so I calmed myself…the bell beeped n the metro took its speed, again I got imbalanced due to the pick-up speed and fall on the other man standing beside me… again no sooner I stood properly the other station came and immediately the metro reduce its speed!!! I fall on front side!!!! Don’t know whether Delhi government have appointed truck drivers to drive METROS!!!. I enjoyed metro… I traveled from karol bagh to shadara station changing 3 trains n I reached within 25 mins!!! By road…. Hmm may be half a day!!!! Anyways, u can enjoy road side lassi thela’s n tandoori chicken with lots of makhaanJ.

Now I have no excitement joining for the internship, I dnt knw when will they call us to join but I conclude that I could have spent few more days with family n hometown frens!! but hey my Best Buddy is here with me so not a prob againnn!!!! Lemme enjoy chicken macgrill now!!!!

Feel the Difference…..
Hi folks long enough to write something on my blog…. Remember last time I posted the blog about my queries about Media education. Today, is the last day of my first year in Media Management, I have learned and unlearned and relearned many things being in ISBM since last nine months.. Last time I bloged about the skeptical of media education, today I am a hardcore Advertising apprentice. That’s the difference!!!!

Last time I was consulting others, today I am advising others….. That’s the difference.

Last time I was confused, today I am confident …

Last time my friends doubted me, today they Adore me…. That’s……difference.

Last time I typed blog sitting with my pc, enjoying home made foods, today, in Domino’s, enjoying Angrezi food…. That’s also the difference!!!!!

Anyways, I have hell lot of stuffs to share with all of you. At the end of my first year I terminate that I am rocking guyssssssss…..

What should I write here?? Should I write the frustration, I had in the earlier, or should I write about the trend I have set since last, hmmmmm….. May be 18 years!!! Yes the trend which I followed in the past, and yet, proud to do the same… guys, I am talking about being known as BACK BENCHERSSSS!!!!!! KG se lekar PG tak!!!!!! (ops! I gotta new topic to write!!!)
Starting from day one, entering the institute alone, to the first intro to the class, interacting the kuddi’s, enjoying the parties, having sutta’s with friends (not now ha!!), partying hard till drop, (also studying hard!!!)…. Interacting new people, and having someone so special FREIND too!!!;), the fresher party, the adda party, rejected assignment, stopping in between the presentations, and scoring more with the concept of ‘cut-copy-paste’ (thanx to GOOGLE)!!!

I gotta a wide exposure studying in post graduation, the team work, the spirit, the confidence, and a new way of looking towards life. Thanks again and again to my BIG B (Raman Anna).

Let me start with sharing few unforgettable things in this past journey. I remember the day when I was giving my intro to my class in front of my academic head; I said that I am feeling alone here. Hearing this, I got a first assignment!!!!! My academic head said me to do an assignment for next 7 days. Apun ki to faat gayi!!! Then he said, interact 5 new guls of your batch every day, and report me in the evening!!! Aila, apun bola kya mast sir hai…. Sochna kya, legal permission thi coz he addressed class that if any gul do not co operate me, will face the consequences!!!!!! He ha ha haaaaaaa!!!!

I was known as a great fan of Durex!!! Wait wait, I.. I mean I love to make my assignment on this product. I did once, I score good enough, next time prepared the internet ad on the same product, and I scored even more….. Preparing the print ads, radio ads and even concepts for TVC’S…. I used only this product!!! Later I studied more about this brand and my friends, even the whole batch call me the brand ambassador for durexxx… I got a motivation!!!
(Not for using, but for branding folks), I wrote many slogan for this product, and later whenever I entered the campus, people come to me to ask what’s today!!! That was an AIDS awareness day. My fishy mind wrote,

In the memory of Bulbir Pasha,
I promise to ride with Safety,
I promise to ride with Pleasure,
I promise to ride with Durex.

Me, who even don’t know what is PPT, today I am presenting till 30 slides in one go!! I learned how to be happy with small things and how not to be embarrassed with any annoyance. Never before there was any occasion that I spend without family n friends. But being an Isbmiet, I miss my parents and friends in each and every occasion. I cannot forget the diwali celebration when every person is enjoying the lights n sweets and me?? Sitting apart from everybody missing my family with flooded eyesL!! I am always thankful to my bro n father who never asked me why my per month expenses are so high, I m thankful of my mother who allowed me to leave home, I know she will miss me every lunch time, because now she alone has to arrange the Thali’s on the table!! I am thankful to my sisters, showing the green signal even on Rakhsha Bandhan. Last month of holi celebration!!!! Ohh I don’t want to embarrass u people telling about this festival, because hum sabki kahani ek hai… the universal truth that I am proud of my supportive family, to whom I can even discuss about the last night college daru party, and my fathers suggestion, beta don’t exceed more then two peg!!!

Working for all the events of college like HR share, Media pulse, Supply chain Act, Forza, Crescendo… I interacted many media peoples and journalists for our PR (public relation) work. Negotiating the DNA and TOI wala guys for print ads from Rs.700/sqcm to Rs.250/sqcm in 8 days!!! And later ending with no advertisement even after such large bargain because of limited budget!!!! If I call these guy again, definitely they will not ask me to pay for the 2by4 space for my photograph for showing the sorrow for being passed away!!!:).

I gotta good people here. Good friends, close and caring. We leave like a small family. Being there for each other at any time. Today is the time to depart from the senior friends who guided us very much. Batch mates, to whom we will miss for next 100 days. Every body is leaving the campus to join for summer training. This is how life keeps changing, no sooner did u settle, apart from family, and then u has to depart again from your new caring friends. Is this the real life?? To be apart from each and every lovable person? Is this called the career, where u r always left alone in this battle field?? Though we say we can learn the duniyadari but you know what?? This is only bullshit!! (may you have some other opinion, so let’s not discuss more)

Let me stop here, wanna go to pune station to see off to many friends. Wait for my next blog. I do agree that I may not have had different experiences like all, but life sometimes good, sometimes rocking, but… it really sucks. thanx for wasting you time to read my blog.

Media.. .. ...

what is media? What ideas do we have, as soon we listen this word... As soon as the word 'media' dashes to our ears , many different pictures will appear in front of us. Some times of the favorite celebrates, sometimes high class parties, and sometimes of different news channels with exclusive news. Can anybody clearly define, What exactly the term mean ? I am asking you about this now, and so I think, you have never before thought of this word.

Today, or I can say from last two months, that, this word really have covered a major part of my life. I am, being known as a media student, many peoples, friends, relatives ask me about this. Even I have daily phone calls from close ones, to know about this. Many pals think that, I may soon be seen in any news channel handling a mike followed by a cameraman and standing front of camera and sharing the news.......... And thus we have many 'panchat' discussions at our 'katta', discussing on this field.... But let me clear to my friends and all other peoples that I am not going to be a reporter or similar to it!!! The fact is, even myself ,I don't know, what my post or my role will be in that field! Truly speaking, in last few days, whenever people meet me, there fisrt question is what is media management???....What post will I get in news channel??..( now, I dnt know why most of the peoples predict that, media management and news channels go hand in hand!!!) and I always try my best, to explain them what is media, and how it is nt only related to news channels! But the fact is, I myself don't know, What that education is specially related to! And that's What my first sentence of the this blog is...

Now you all will start thinking that, How could karan don't know the thing which,he is going to learn??....... But friends, let me honestly discuss the fact, that, how media education and I, are related to each other........
while preparing for entrance exams last year, I face many strange mathematical problems (which were never solved till now!!).... From the first,after my schooling,I always kept the subject 'maths' out of my syllabus! I didn't know why and how I started to fear about this subject.....Further after graduation I came to know that 'math' is related to almost every field! Which,once my bro also told me at the time of junior college submitions! While entrance preparation, I started to learn it again, which I have left five years back. And I never succeeded in learning more in it.... Though keeping practicing every day for hours, it was hardly possible for me. Many known entrance exams like CAT,SNAP,MAT......etc.were Covered with 'maths'. And it became very impossible for me to score in these exams! From June 2005 till jan2006 I was hardly able to crack this subject...As the days passed, and appearing for many entrance exams, it feared me that, I can't digest it. As soon the 'mousum'(climate!) of different entrance exams came to halt, I started worrying, weather could I get into any good B-school....? Then I started concentrating to the autonomous societies of educations and one of them, I concentrated to was ISBM,pune....
I remember the day when, me along with my other two friends, reached the college campus to buy and fill the entrance form.As that was the last day to summit the form, so we personally visited to the campus. As soon we purchased three forms for us, we started filling them without wasting the time. And the real story starts from here.................
The form contained two type of exams, which wil be conducted on the same date.(5feb) and to my surprise, I found one of them,the paper pattern didn't contain maths'!!!! This made me to bring a blithesome smile to my face and without hesitating I opted for it,(with a great proud on my face, as if, I have cleared the test!). But, at the time of submittion they,(collegewala) said that i cannot opt that particular test, as I was wishing to get in business management..He said that, this type of test is only for the candidates wishing to learn MEDIA courses. And thus, my proudy and glowing face turned tobe gloomy!! Further requesting them and making lots of queries, that guy suggested that, I can even change the mind at the time of second stage of selection process,i.e.,at the time of Group Discussion! And thus, I called immediately to Raman bhao in told to him,and he replied-'do whatever u wish but clear the test!'. And thus, the journey of being a media student started......

Luckily, ( I mean through my HARD work) I cleared the test and had the GD call!( though I had few calls in past). Thus, Raman bhao forwarded me some details about MEDIA Industry so as to make it easy, in the interview process. And I started to concentrate on it and found myself interested in that field... I started to gather more and more information about media.(fir bhi I asked in the start,'what is media'?!) and thus the process went on... I also planned to prepare for CET which was my last step of the ladder getting into good B-school. I opted NAGPUR center for GD/PI of ISBM and PUNE center for CET. And here too, my badluck followed! The date on which my GD/PI was tobe conducted in Nagpur, and CET in Pune appeared tobe same!! It meant, I had tobe in two different cities, which were about 750 kms apart from eachother, at the same day!! (and I remembered the movie titles like Sita aur geeta! Ram aur Shyam! judvaa.......kash mera koi judwaa hotaa!!!!!!!!!!). I was just like two girlfriends asking to meet at a same time,one at Chandni Chowk and other in KP!!! (at such situation I m thankful to good that Raman and me were not judwaa!!!:))

I preferred to concentrate to ISBM and went to Nagpur for the final process. I have faced many strangers there, in GD,and 25mins long interview which was totally negative (two strangers who were expert in abborence.1 enjoying coldrink and firing (not 'offering') to me and the other was literally smoking!! And at that state of abeyance, my fishy mind wondered, if he would offer one to me and lit it with his hand !!!)....They kept firing in very abhorrent manner, and I used all my Shields to defend............ And after few days I had a call which said that I have been selected among the 120candidates out of 750 who appeared for interview in different Cities throughout the Country for media management for pune campus! And that ph call really turned my way to lead future journey of life. I proudly started telling people that i will pursue my MBA in MEDIA! And thus, the real climax started, and since last two months, I am unable to clear myself that, What post is going tobe given to me, after two year of PG?? Whenever I discussed about this, with the experts or say to my careerforum faculties, everybody said only that, there is a wide scope, as well good income in this field! But, nobody cleared to me, that, what work do I need to have ,after graduation in media?? But I can conclude that, I am happy with this course, not because the average salary of the college pointed 5lacs.p.a. But I think, I am getting the appeasement and also excitement to be a media master!!!!!!!!!!(and again I am thankful to my swt bro, for burnishing me & being there at each & in every state of dilemma, I wish to GOD to keep him with me always further, whenever I am in need of some 'eXtra Bucks'!!!!:))

My Brother ......

Reading the title don't u find yourself thinking as if a small school boy writing an essay because his teacher asked him so.?. And instead of chosing GENERAL topics like MY country,MY village,MY town,MY mother ,MY father,MY culture.........And many other,he choosed MY brother!!! may be he himself has found something in his brother.................. But its not like that anyway..............(I mean I find many qualities in my bro, but this is not only an essay). Let me tell u the unseen qualities of my brother RAMAN
Those were the days of summer vacation in 2005.I was enjoying my vacations (though college days were also like vacations for me!:0), it was time when my brother Raman, seriously started to think about my future studies, and he suggested me to join him there in pune for the MBA entrance classes, soon & seriously. Before my decision to agree him, he requested me to think twice if I can do it seriously,as I was a cool guy never worried about my future as wel as to current studies. That period was really hard for me to take the decisions because, I hardly ever thought of such things I mean to leave the home-town and specially my friends. Further many days he continuously motivated me in all possible ways and at last, he succeeded..
In the month of June end I left my home-town latur and joined him in 'anandnagar'(ofcourse in pune!).He fixed all my shedule. Starting from the morning to the nightfall and further till the bedtime. He completely started concentrating towards ME and only ME.(to my badluck,he didn't have girlfriend 'at that time'so that he could atleast have concentrated towards her, other then me for a while!!!)....From daily vocabulary to tables, ( dn't think time-table', but maths tables!) I was poor in speaking, and more than it, in maths. Also I lack in concentrating studies continuously for hours....And also in..........Bus baki 'bachaa' subme me acha tha!!!! And what a mercy on me? My class shedhule was fixed at 7am! I use to say it as 7 em(Early morning!). Though 7am was not early for me because my brother woke me up at 4am:(. He himself did not go back again to his bed until he confirmed whether my eyes were wide open!! Such an early hour when other flatmates ,aswini bhaiya, nikhil bhai,happy singh,satya bhai! All were busy with there gfs, in there beds with pleasent satisfying smile on there faces, as if they had just unloaded!...opps! Sorry i forget to mention here that, they all were enjoying this in there 'DREAMS'!!!!
SO THEY AL WERE SLEEPING AND THIS "(ME) POOR GUY TRING TO CONCENTRATE IN BOOK:(.. The early darkness turns to the morning lights, until I get the good grip:( Then I has to keep myself ready, till 6.30am. Not for class, but mainly to get inside the PMT buss to, reach the class! and again to my luck,those were days when pune were facing an continues rain for more then a month...And thus, the days passed..( i think the title given to this blog is 'my brother',and am literally telling only about myself, so lets say something, I mean, many things about him.....!!!)

In those days in pune, I came to know the other side of my sweet brother Raman, who turned to be like 'abominable' for a while! I came to know, how much he cares for me.I came to know how much he himself struggling, for my bright future. He stopped all his works and daily habits and helped me to STAND straight.I came to know his dream to see me,as a part of corporate world.As being an elder to me, I respected him from first, but his struggle for my carrier, increased his credit in my eyes day by day.
Raman bhao, aswini bhaiya,nikhil bro,sardarji, everybody join their office in the morning and I have to be totally alone inside the flat, covered with unwanted arithmetical formulas,words,diagrams,technique sheets,home work sheets,passage books,articles,newspaper,sodu-ko's,that boring algebra rules,geometry diagrams and that was not enough that in the afternoon, to have company of our 'kaamwali mausi'(who start unnecessary chats with me regarding her family,her younger boy who do not study,her dauthers pending fees of colleges,and her past memories........Again to my luck,once upon a time she lived in 'latur'! and she says that she lived near to my house!!!)...... Anyways as the sun completely bends towards west, my gloomy face turns towards cheerfully smile because, my soul says to me that the day is over and my sweet brother will appear in anand nagar soon!!

As soon Raman bhao finishes his work, he hurriedly rushes towards flat and joins me and clears my queries...He cares me alot, and i learned to think positively from him.I learned many good qualities from him.He properly handled his post as a elder brother. Though he shouted angrily on me several time, which later I found that he was correct and I agreed one thing that he was always correct. I remember when he shouted like anyhow on me few times.once when he came to know that my monthly phone bill comes in four digits/month..According to him, I spent many important study time in that unnecessary cellphone............

Thus, i had lots of memorable things at the time of entrance preparation,I am thankful to ASWINI bhaiya,NIKHIL bro,HARPREET bhai,VIDYA bhao,debu bro and many other my sweet elder brothers. These guys really treated me as their younger brother, and loved me a lot. And helped me in my studies in absence of Raman(he shifted to chennai in month of august)...
I am thankful that I have such a strong and admirable brother, whom I adore the most....But being such a qualitative person, I didnt know why, he lacks in field of GFs!!!!!!!!!

Hello friends, here is the new way we laturties(laturwale!) give a warm wishes to our friends, going to pune for study purpose.(actually we people from latur only prefer 'pune' for carrer purpose, may be there's no other option or something else...I guess u understand:)) my 50% friends are (struggling!) in pune to make there career and so every month some of them visit latur and some already here goes back, we follow a trend while any friend leaving for pune we gather at a particular place specially at 'travels stand' for wishing him luck...This might be one of the reasons I get late to reach home every night because, the only timing fixed of the travels busses going for pune is 11pm(onwards!)....Anyways...So I have to go to stand several times in a month.

so let me come to the point finally is that, yesterday our most faithful , having lots of good skills and the only one who stood in merit in HCI exams (its nt so that other do nt study more!) who was in pune for an year and came back because he got BORE there!!!!!!!( the eXclamations r because there r rare cases of saying that they get bore in pune city!) and finally after 2years, he decided to go back again!!! He was a guy whose welknown for his decisions as his decisions are unpredictable due to his most wavering nature(sry to say dis dear) .The guy after thinking more than 2months, only to decide whether to go or settle in his family concerned traditional business..After thinking more n more for 2months, he finally decided to opt pune for his career and in those 2months, we had the only topic to be chewed at our 'KATTA' whether he wl go or not!(sry again dear) and finally the day came for him to leave latur and the day, unwanted day for us coz we have to miss him at our katta:( hey wait wait......Let me introduce my this friend bout whom am siting before the computer at 2am!! He is a swt innocent(!!!!) charming DUDE AJAY(I use to call him 'bevda' nt so because he drinks but his 'nashili' ankhein!)

After a long & time-consumed decision, he was leaving latur finally yesterday,(I am writing this blog after the day) and we decided to do some thing different to be remembered by him as well by al our group.... What we did was that...... First let me describe the location we gather were his travels pick up point was, time is 10.15pm the bus is waiting for al there reserved passengers (may be I count 35 in all) and near about 50 other people there and we 10-12 freinds.Finally the time came,the bus driver who was in his hot seat to take-over .All the passengers hurriedly stepping inside the buss and there relatives, raising there hands for there 'tata tata's'(bye bye). Finally the driver stepped his leg on the accelerated and the bus moved forward and finally, we all stepped in front of the bus and so the driver immediately braked his vehicle and what the FUN........Suddenly all the passengers, the peoples waiting side by and other pedestrians roused there eye brows....... And here wat a huge n continues sound of CRACKERS counting to 1000s (in other language that we cal as LUD) has been lighted by my friends in front of the bus, and we all brought our friend out of buss and started singing the most favorite song, sung specially by every mother at a time of her dauthers marriage ceremony's last stage called 'bedayee'!! Yes we started with loud voice at once until he stepped inside the bus and the buss leaving its place, and taking the distance we stood raising our hands in a posture of 'tata tata':), and all the other people looking towards us still in the same gesture and wondering what's going on and friends, there was a loud singing of our tone, raising our hands indicating towards our friend in that bus and he himself, confusingly looking out of the window wondering and listening the song.........BABUL KI DUWAYEE LETI JAA,JAA TUJKO SUKI SANSAAR MILEY...............
