OFFICE BONDS

This one is dedicated to all my office besties or rather should I just say besties. I mean why tag them as only office besties because they have been there beyond the office cubicles. Well, they say one cannot make friends at office or colleagues at work place are only there because of work and that one must disclose nothing to them about yourself or the real you.

They also say never open all your cards in the open before your office colleagues. Cards?? Seriously, I mean are we playing TEEN PATI or are we discussing my Janam Patri! Well, I personally never understood the concept of keeping a dual personality as they call. I am who I am and if people accept me the way I am then fine else they are free to walk out of my life and so I always believed and still believe in the concept of being myself and keeping myself open to meeting new people and making new friend even if it is meant to be the most bitchy place.

Well as I promised, this post is dedicated to my besties whom I met at my work place, I will strictly stick to that and tell you more about how it all started and how we developed a bond that they call friendship! It was my first day at work and I was very easily and openly accepted by Charlies Angel’s! From lunch breaks to after lunch walks we just blended very well and I was soon one of the angels of the group. :-P

While few moved on to other work assignment the rest still remained intact and in fact the bond between us just grew stronger by each passing day. Lunch was now at Tiffins and spontaneous delivery orders from Theobroma’s. The office time out sessions were the best for us to spend more time after work and indulge in some selfies.

By now Charlies Angels were dropping in number and we soon became PJS, Pakao Jokes as what some may call it. We have our own reasons for the group name, which is better undisclosed at this platform. PJS didn’t grow in number but the bond in them was like never before. They changed the definition of work colleagues and became a gossip among the tinsel town of office.

We tagged around after office for movies, to shopping to instant lunch plans, to random coffee shop conversations. And this just made PJS more and more stronger in their unity. We literally felt the pain of each other, if one was down the other would make sure they do all to cheer. We sang to each other, the kiddish talks, the washroom gossips, the endless selfies, the poses. The list was long….

Well, to cut short my post, as I can go on writing about PJS and their bond. I would just say, PJS’s has now parted ways to move for better prospects but the friendship that grew within the office has moved beyond the horizons and glass doors of office. Because we have now made what they call in the truest form FRIENDSHIP.

PJS – I love you guys for all your support! You have been the greatest strength at work! And this post is a small dedication to our long live friendship!

i-genius Young Singing Stars II

Well, the event powered by Max Life Insurance was truly a big hit and totally amazing. Right from the organization of the event to the arrangement of participants and jury. The event was outstanding! The event known as the I Genius young singing starts season II was a great initiative by Max Life Insurance to promote talent and also recognize the talent on a public platform. The association of two large and renowned organizations coming together and organizing such events is a great boost to the young talent of our country.

Post the huge hit and success story of season I, the company planned to launch this event yet again and came up with season II to create yet another hit story. The programme attracted total of more than two lakh fifty thousand participants this year too across India and works as a great guiding source for children and young minds of the age group between 4-15 years. The organization of such events truly reflects the social responsibility of Max Life Insurance where they are ready to invest in talent and young minds of the future.

I personally loved and thoroughly enjoyed the performance of all the young dynamites who did an amazing job at this young age. The confidence level of these dynamites was sky high and clearly shows the talent our country has. Besides the jury was commendable with renowned members of our Industry like Salim Merchant and Shraddha Sharma. A big applause to the jury to make such a tough call and have winners in front of us, because it truly is a task to dishearten or judge among such young talents where all of them are amazingly outstanding.

To conclude my experience I would just say the event was a great initiative by Max Life Insurance and Universal Music India where they decided to promote the young talents and offered them a great platform for their first break.

Kudos to the young dynamites and an applause to Max and Universal!

Mc Cain Smiles

When it comes to the happiness of my loved ones, infinity is the limit till where I can reach or aim at reaching to ensure their happiness or a smile on their face. I am sure it is the same for all of us, as our loved ones and family is what we live for and love to do things for. I personally enjoy food, and considering the fact that I belong to a Sindhi family gives me the leverage all the more to say this that I am a Foodie. We are just born to eat. Trust me when I say that, for we mean every word of this. And well so the same passes on from one generation to the next in the family.

In my family I am closest to my younger sister and wish to give her all the happiness that she deserves and wish to fulfil every wish of hers, and so it goes without saying that she is the most pampered by me in every aspect, Be it Showroom shopping to Street Hoping, we do it all together. And so there is no exception to food. Food being our source of living or rather the only hope for living.

I would be more than willing to use a quick and rather easy method to get away with her demand when it comes upon me, given the fact that I am lazy too. But Nevertheless, I enjoy cooking for her some yummy and different food, which is not just yummy in taste but also healthy to the tummy. And well, I would use Mc Cain Smiles as a surprise snacks for her this weekend when she would get done with her Mid Term Exams. I am sure a smiley snack would get the smile back on her face, which has been lost in the books and the past few study weeks. I would team up the Mc Cain Smiles with a cheese dip, as she is a big time cheese lover, and can have the dip that I make with almost everything and so this is how I plan to give her a small surprise this weekend after a stressful exam week. This would definitely get a smile on her face, as she is a total foodie and would to be surprised by me, with something so delicious and yummy.

Well this is my way of getting a smile on the face of my younger sister, who means the world to me. I hope she keeps smiling like the smile the Mc Cain snack has. Please see the link below:

REAL TOGETHERNESS

Link- http://www.kissanpur.com/

The moment I hear the word togetherness, I think that the real essence of togetherness is lost in the modern society. Blame it on the mobile phones, laptops, IPad and the list goes on or blame it on the influence of the western culture that the entire concept of togetherness is lost.

There are hardly times when we think of having a get- together with family as we are so busy with work and our social life that we do not think it’s important to connect with family anymore. When I got an opportunity to pen down my thoughts on real togetherness, prompt came this idea of spending time with my family on some hill station in the arms of Mother Nature.

This in my opinion is a superb way in which we can all bond together and stay away from all the hustles of the city life and also when I tell this idea to my family I will make sure that everybody decides to keep their phones and all their gadgets back at home. I would strictly tell of them to not carry any of it as according to me it spoils the idea of togetherness. This is because we all get lost in the technological world and then we are not able to give time, and I mean quality time to each other.

Well, I plan to take this time of togetherness and so called vacation break this Diwali, where I plan to go away from the city lights and the artificial decorations, because I believe in celebrating this time with my family on a beautiful hill station, where the natural day light will be our Diwali lights and the bird songs will be the Diwali crackers. I personally am a nature loving person, and I believe there is nothing more beautiful than the beauty of the almighty.

We plan to go to this place with my family, where we will indulge in some fun activities that we never get a chance to do in our busy work schedules. Right from Mountain Climbing to River Rafting, it is all going to be part of our plan. The reason why we also chose Diwali as an occasion to take this trip is because, well we will live a society where we cannot afford of take vacations and leaves from work. And hence this time of the year felt the perfect time to do it. With my Mom’s home-made food to long night train travels it will all be a fun trip, where the real essence of togetherness and love will be cherished. Times like these always bring in more love and joy in the family where we truly connect to each other. Well, this is my little contribution towards planning a time of real togetherness with my family.

The Path of Zarathustra

Inspirational, well this was the first word that came to my mind immediately after watching the movie. The movie totally inspired me in every aspect. It took me back to history of Parsi’s. The real essence of Parsi religion and what does it comprise of. The movie was well directed and put across the aspect of depleting Parsi community in the world. It spoke about religion, which is a topic of debate in the modern world, where the younger generation do not believe in the old myths of religion and wish to believe in what they can read and rationalize with. The movie well serves the purpose for these youngsters to learn and understand the true inception of Parsi’s.

The start of the movie spoke about how this young girl living with her grandfather is away from all the worldly things and is wanting to live the rest of the life with her grandfather in a faraway village, away from all the motion and commotion of the world. As the movie unfolds, we see that the girl now moves to her aunt’s house in the busiest metro of our country, Mumbai. She does so, as she makes a promise to her dying grandfather, to get back to the world and find out more about the Parsi community and the religion. She comes to Mumbai, with this one book given to her by her grandfather, who promised her that the book will unfold itself once she is with the people she is supposed to be with, her own people, her community, and her religion.

Well, so on goes the story of this girl, where she meets different people and tries to question them more and more about religion. As she goes around meeting these people, the story explains the audiences about the few and most important pillars of the religion and its inception. The story also puts light to a few ancient day laws set by the Parsi community which need to be changed and removed in order to survive in the modern lifestyle. One such example was the marriage of Parsi woman in another religion.

And so, many such aspects were bought to light with the help of this movie. We could enjoy a nice tour to the lives of many Parsi’s out there by understanding their daily environment, the real essence of the fire temple and many more. In order to conclude I would just say that the movie did complete justice in explaining the Parsi community and its inception. It was well directed and all characters in the movie just fitted in well. In all it was a movie with great inspirational message to the audiences. Look forward to more great work by such young directors to inspire the youth of the country.
