“Waqt rehta nahin kahin tik kar, iski aadat bhi aadmi si hai”.
– Gulzar.
Just an attempt to travel with changing time and people.
If ever I write an autobiography, it will be certainly called “Talking to Myself”. So here I am talking to myself and trying to understand life, movies, book and just about anything. I am no Superman or for that matter, even the latest superhero ‘Krrish’ neither do I claim to be an intellectual.
What I write is what I see everything around me and of the people around me. I have the habit of talking to myself.
I am a very unique person; same as others. I have my problems, my anger, my weakness, my strength, my questions, my answers, my queries, my search, my ego, my victories, my defeats and my experiences. I try to remain sane in the midst of all this. I don’t know how much I succeed and maybe I don’t want to know. I don’t want to find the truth about life or the ultimate goal about living a life. All I know that it’s a journey through all this and all I get is a stupid experience.
Most of the people I personally know, have not read any of this nor do I want to tell them. If they know knowingly or unknowingly, I don’t hide either. As Popeye said “I yam what I yam”.
For people who know me personally and think they know me better now or think that they have uncovered my secrets or my life, think again. I don’t claim that myself too.
I feel that this blog has a lot of ‘I’ and that makes me think as very selfish but then its one place where I can be ‘I’. Its one place where I try to find the real ‘I’. Hope I suceed!
For others who don’t know me personally and wonder who the guy behind the stupid blog really is?
Look around you; I may have just walked past you on the streets today and you did not even look at me.
P.S. Full2 Faltu means completely crap in Mumbaiya Slang! Do not take the blog seriously.

sirf dil toot ta to alag baat thi
tootne se dard hota to alag baat thi
baithe hai dil ko pathar bana k
sase rook jati to alag baat thi.
Nahi yaar dil toot k ho chuka hai,
ab tukde ikta kar raha hu.
I m not expecting from u. But i think ( & its true ) tht ur blog is meant specially for those people who hv heart ( even though its broken ) & who know the value of family & frnds.

Hi !
Came across your interesting blog when I put as earch for old Marathi Songs on google. Some old latent treasure within surfaced when I read your piece on the Programmes telecast by the old faithful DD in the good old days.It brought back the lovely memories.
The serials you hav ementioned may seem amateurish compared to the tecnical gloss of today. But definitely those serials scored on quality. If you remember Yeh Jo Hai Zindagi…The first real comedy India telly serial. Original and creative. You could watch it repeatedly. I remember another serial telecast by DD. They had converted some of the best regional short storie into a teleserial.
The beauty of DD is you could watch serials ot musical programmes uninterruptedly . Earlier the commercials appeared before or after the programme( The sponsors did not have a choice). Even when this was changed the number of commercials during the braek were few.
Which brings one to create a debate? Are the Govt owned Channels sleeping giants? Perhaps it will not be farfetched to say that they are. The perceptions have changed with the end of the monopoly culture.The happenings during the Emergency (75-77) cannot occur again. The Govt owned channels will necessarly have to be unbiased in their news reporting. But they will score over the routine insipid material dished out by the commercial channels. If managed properly with t a proper focus a channel like DD would is unresrticted by budgets and a rich tradiation can dish out creative work…
Should one wait for the day ?Or is the day not far away when some tycoon or Corporate gobbles up DD?
Sahi jaa rahe ho Ustaad.
Impressive yaraa…..
Aaj ka bhatakte kis gali main ho ye to batao?
Shahi
you are awesome dude…
U write very nicely….keep the effort up!!
BOL…….( best of luck)
Roshan (i guess thats what ur name is)
Sadly and unfortunately, most of the DD serials are lost in time. You might get something from NFDC or the production houses but the internet has very little options compare to Indian serials.
M Ganesh
DD functions as a public broadcaster and it is sad that it is lossing on the competition. You could also debate if the same serials would survive now in the midst of Saas bahu drama? Also many film makers were active in television. The emphasis on quality in thier movies was also seen in thier serials. The idea was to keep it short and sweet. Now the aim is for TRP which gives more importance to gloss and hype rather than quality and hence we never remember many serials nowadays.
As for DD, there has to be some professionalism in the broadcast. The laid back attitude of government employee has to give way to creative independence. Take BBC for example. It gives quality news even being hugely funded by the British government.

hi
greta site
i just go on google and keep on searching on the movies and tv show
hey can u tell me there was one more german serial whichj use to come in 92 -95 and it was on detective and there was this tall old man..this serial came before the serial u have mentioned
hellow,
I am K. Soma Sankar and from Hyderabad. I am an avid reader of short stories on the net. Just now I read your short story ‘The report card’ posted on Sulekha. From the link given at the end of the story, I came to your site and read one more story ‘Papa Jaldi Aajaana’. Both stories are narrated superbly and touching ones. They simply remined me of my childhood.
I am a short story writer and transaltor too. I would like to translate ‘Papa Jaldi Aajaana’ into Telugu. Would be kind enough to reply to me so that I can seek a formal request from you?
Rgds,
Bhai,
I am re-living so many periods of my life, whenever I read your blogs.
Actually, they should not be called blogs … they are much more than blogs … to me, they are a mirror to some parts of my life.
Your wonderful blogs bring back so many sweet memories ….. The Report Card, The Doordarshan series, Sugandhi Katta … and many many more.
And then so many wonderful lines about all those fantastic movies.
Bhaaaai (like in “Bhaaaai, tum sign karoge ke nahi ? )… tumko aisa nahi lagta tumhe apna profession change kar lena chahiye ….
tumko professional writer banana chahiye (if u have not already gone down that line) ….
No offence to K Soma Sankar’s good intentions, lekin Bhai … people are already thinking of coming out with transalations of your esteemed work.
Kuch karo ….. aur haan, jab pustak chapp jaaye, to humko bata do … hum khareedenge copies, for all my friends & relatives.
best regards,
Taks

“Mere paas blog hai”
Isliye bakta rehta hoo. Koi dushmani thode he hai!.
I seem to look in the past then at the future. But what I write is again what I talk aloud with myself. I am not a good writer even when Soma Sanker seems to think so. Thanks for appreciating and coming back again and again to this blog.
I hope I don’t disappoint you. Itna pressure nahi dalneka.
As for book, there are many writers out there who write much much better than me. Apun ki toh english aur uske grammer ki vaat lagai hai.
Thanks for your encouragement! Hopefully I keep writing!

Hey there, your research on DD serials is really commendable. I know you got the info from some site but going by your feeling towards those 80’s classics, you seem attached the same way as I am for those programs. I could never imagine anyone apart from me who would remember how streets wore a deserted look when primetime movie was on Doordarshan. Also, all these programs are special to me simply for the reason that those were during my childhood days. Thanks for bringing back those memorable moments. Hats off!!!!

And lo and behold I come to this site again ! Was googling for an old movie that apparently not many know, Thodasa Roomani Ho Jaaye…though I must say found quite a few fans on the net , which makes me happy, gives me hope… and again I made my way to this long lost blog, google had brought me here earlier for bawra mann from HKA…had added u on my puter earlier and it broke, so was using the laptop ONLY all this while and hadnt had the chance to visit this blog. Hmm. You do have good taste 😀 Since apparently u like the good rare movies and music I like, may I ask? How old are you? Just trying to figure out if you are from my generation. Will add u again 🙂

Loved reading ur posts, especially those stories! keep blogging!
That sure is a smart way of thinking about it. I know tons of people see your write ups but I often wonder how many of them truly understand the lasting impact of what is really being said. I really love this type of writing. We can complete tasks very quickly that were impossible before now. Top Tumblr experts would love this. Is there anything else I might read to know more about this topic?
seriously..your blog is coolllll…can you just visit me and let me know what best can be done to my stuff there..i am an amateur in this field..
Buddy,
Very nice blog..Its 1 a.m at night…need to go to work early and start testing of my project….But i cannot let go your blog…And yes, i started missing Mumbai after your blog..spent 10 years in SEEPZ,tunga etc…Please keep it up…

Hi !
I was searching for the serial called Talaash and came across your posts, very addictive I must say.
I haven’t read all of it, but the poem called WHY? I really liked it. Something I could relate to. Thanx for sharing it. It was like reading the Kite Runner again.
Thanx and keep it up.
