The customer who came to take chicken from the old butcher is actually a CBI officer who is there to investigate the murder mystery of mangamma who was allegedly killed by her husband Mangayya for money that she saved since years to cook chicken for herself.....
CBI officer to himself:
This chikki story sounds much more interesting to deal with..... I will make sure i investigate this case side by side n earn some recognition at higher officials.....
Chikki's dad sends the customer away and asks her daughter how she understood the chicken language..... Chikki convinced her dad that she had some supernatural powers that made her understand the language..... Her dad was all pissed that his daughter wont let him do his business n sends her home.....Chikki starts thinking about her powers and how best she can help man kind with it.... then struck the IDEA(it can change her life for ever u know[;)]).....
She decided to open a chicken language teaching classes for kids and adults who are interested in learning it.... She confessed her idea to her mom who blatantly abandoned the idea.....but chikki was adamant....it was her idea n she was goin to execute it..... That is how the "CHIKKI and CHICKENS" language center started..... she teamed up with the boy next door who was a gem at spreading word around the streets..... they even designed a ad campaign and TV ad that goes like....
"There are voices in my head that tell me every time a chicken pass me by.....that I can comprehend the noise and we can stop chukungunya anywhere"..... and then the caption comes up as..... "Now anybody can learn HENNKO(official chicken laguage)(spelled as Hen n Co) "
Chikki ahd her next door frend Puchhu do lot of research and find out that chicken vendors staying near by are not interested since they believe it hampers their trading skills if they can understand what the chicken talk about.... Many school kids turn up for it just coz they have nothing else to do in the evenings.... Few house wives join up too after seeing the AD on TV.....Thus started chikki and her HENNKO classes which were a huge success since every day a class fellow bout a new chicken and they tried comprehending its language..... Puchhu suggested that they develop some hearing tools that can aid people to take classes from home n chikki implements it successfully.... Day by day, she starts making profits that noone cud ever dream of since many people start enrolling thru word of mouth advertising and also coz chikki is a great instructor.... She is a child prodigy in the making.....
One day chikki's mom was reluctantly counting the money made and was awestruck seeing the money that her daughter made thru teaching HENNKO..... She joined hands with her daughter who is 12 years old now and her CHIKKI and CHICKENS has been running successfully for over two years.... One day chikki was looking thru the news paper and saw that many people in Korea died of chukungunya..... Chikki went into deep thot as to how to help the people in other nations..... her motive wasnt money n profits anyday.... After a brief discussion with Puchhu, her company partner....they decided to outsource their HENNKO e-learning tool to korea and other countries who want to buy it.... They publish their product on Ad-Words and many countries and companies come forward to buy their product and to acquire its patent rights.... She sells off her product and the whole of HENNKO rights to "Boogle".... an emerging search engine which was entering into product marketing with HENNKO.....
Chikki became a millionaire in no time and even received an invite to record for Oprah Winfrey show as well..... this was a great moment in chikki's life..... she was 23....(yeah 11 years later it is man)..... the Oprah show went on well with many chikki admirers and students from all over the world attending the show n praising her.... the summary of the show....
Oprah:
Chikki....welcome to the show.... lets quickly get to the story....how did all this start....i mean how can a human understand wat chickens talk....
Chikki:
Well, it all started when i was in my home town(hyd in India) and working with my dada at his shop.... It was not instinctive....one of my recurring dream is that I went to charminar and bout rice bags from there....I know its wierd but this was a persistent dream when i was a child....
Oprah:
That is interesting chikki.....do u get that dream even now.... Is it so imp a dream to share with all of us.....
Chikki:
yes it is..... Even after so many years of struggle and success, there is soemthign missing....I find myself void n disturbed most of the times.... I think its because of this dream.....
Oprah:
well chikki, we have a surprise for you.... Please come with me....
Oprah leads chikki to a personalized aircraft of hers.... The crowd follows and cheer chikki as she waves to them before getting into the aircraft......chikki gets in reluctantly and then Oprah lets the camera man in and informs the cabin crew to take them to India and to Hyd and to Charminar..... Its one of the fastest planes u can ever imagine and they land in Hyd gachbowli helipad and leave in a Honda Civic to charminar.... They reach charminar in about 20mins using the express highway built from gachbowli that leads to masab tank.....
Chikki is totally speechless.....there she was....at the place of her dreams....she never thot she would visit this place with Oprah....They go and buy rice bags from a merchant and chikki bargains when it comes to paying since she doesn't want to exploit the hospitality of Oprah.... Chikki is beaming and floating in teh air....her wildest dreams have been fulfilled.... That is wat Oprah show is know for..... She thanks Oprah profusely and buys her a pair of Kudan embedded bangles set as token of gratitude....
(pssssttt!!....everyone here might think why chikki hasn't gone to charminar in her 23 years of stay at hyd.... Sometimes it happens yaa....I have been stayin in Hyd for the past 23 years but have never been to Ramoji Film City.... It can happen[:P])
Back in Studio.... Chikki once again thanks Oprah for what she did and concludes the show by revealing the launch of her new company named "Chikki's Chickens" which will operate from India but will have overseas branches in New York, Chicago and California..... The tag lines of the company are.... "Talk Eat and Save yourself".... "You never know when you might turn vegetarian....Play safe...Learn Hennko"...... A budding entrepreneur on her way I tell you.... Wish her good luck and for any other info related to her... You can contact me in person[:P]
Hmmmm finally one word before I leave n sign off for the day.....
Every story has a Happy Ending... if its not Happy....then its not the End"

Guys and their Desperation
Pre Post Script: Desperation is superlative of the word desperate[:P]
Motivation for this post:
I saw a post by mercurialmind titled "What not to do when you are desperate about having a girl friend !!!!!!!!!!!!!!". A perfect post which reminded me of my close friend "V" from school and his toota poota love stories(or desperate encounters rather).....which range from school to college to work place to trains and movie halls!

Warning:
Content of this post may be manipulated and exaggerated to create curiosity and add masala to the post....how ever the story is a real one.....
"The Insane Encounters and Dirty Desperations"
My friend "V" suffers from inferiority complex that girls can never find him great!...Dunno exactly from which age it started.....
However time mite not permit to elaborate all his encounters but I shall put forth one of his most recent ones....
Train from Pune to Hyderabad:
"V" is all set to reach his home town n is desperately looking at the reservation chart to see if there is a girl on any berth near by..... Luck favors him most of the time but destiny ruins it for him[:D]
He sat down and a little while later, there was indeed a girl in front of his berth....excited....energized and optimistic my friend became....everybody around in the compartment were discussing some "current affairs" and my great friend also joins in a while.... the girl is seen handling all the men and their flirting very well and "V" is impressed with her....waaah kya reason hai[:P]....
Now....everybody else is asleep and this idiot puts all the effort to get the top berth to be adjacent to her berth!....everybody is asleep is what he thot so...the girl started taking...what do u do and where do stay n other very imp questions[;)].... No its not "are u on orkut" "give me ur mail id"..... The girl(oh yes the girl it is) asked him for his mobile number....c'mon all u guys reading this post....the first things u shall say is....c'mon he is bluffing or ur lying.....don't be jealous.... be calm n accept reality[:P].....Numbers exchanged and talks continued...for something abt 5 hours.....
My friend "V" is here to prep for CAT for the last two weeks since he is unable to get the flow n concentration in pune.....so he is all worried(or rather cursing his luck) that this girl happened at the wrong moment.... she called n he spoke for an hour or so....she met him and they planned movie....it flopped since her close friend got stuck with some problem n she had to leave....yes, they met again n again....nothing much happened.... After few days "V" stopped taking her calls....cut her calls or phone on silent....and final stage 'switched off' too!!....."she is a psycho" "she expects me to talk for hours like I have no other work" "She is mad woman n expects me to meet her everyday!"
One fine day,then went to some unusual place to eat and "V" hated her attitude and her extra flirting(as he calls it).... but she was good company for she blabbered for hours together....neither of them said anything...CAT was coming closer...just a week left and "V" completely avoided her calls talks and everything to concentrate on his exam better....one things that "V" could not digest is the fact that the girl did not know what CAT and IIMs are!!.....Exam went fine and girl went out of his mind.... IIM cut offs cleared and girl completely cut out from his life!!....
Now now, how many of you thought this is a very unfair story or sad ending.... I assure you that this friend of mine is desperate about girls beyond bounds and it just not possible that he let goes any girl that comes his way....he terms his poor handling to being a looser and not able to make most out of his luck....
Well I beg to differ toh...Having know him for years and still not able to comprehend him completely....he is anything but looser and lucky[;D]....For him, a girl who he can easily get to is a strict no-no....he always let go girls who easily gave in for him!!.... He tries hard to get to know all the beautiful pune girls and even gets close to most of them...but never moves an inch beyond that despoism(another synonym for strong desperateness)..... Something is terribly right about him sometimes for he lets go all of them without second thoughts!....
Point is most of the guys(most of them I tell you)(Most of them here implies most of the men I know of and not generalized stmnt[;)])........ get desperate and even try hard to get closer at diff levels with girls.....from common frend to frend to close frend to best frend to bf to husband.....but their ego rules..... their principles matter....they have some ethics and morals at some level of their despoism....and that drive sense into them at some point when they are not blind anymore!!
I will edit this post once again....some urgent work...posting it for basic comments n reviews!!....

Chick Chick Chickens!
This is the story of a chicken called chikki who is in a cage at the chicken shop near my house...
(The word chicken has been deliberately used in place of hen all thru the post for my own satisfaction)
Motivation for the musings:
Every day I walk past the butcher's shop near the bus stop at ramnagar. I see the chickens making hell lot of noise when the butcher is trying to get hold of them....other wise they are calm n serene....like the ocean which has so many violent things going on inside.... my attempt is to explore the chicken's side of story.....
story:
Chikki as a baby:
Mommy why is tht we are being fed good food but restricted to cages?....why is it tht i cant be independent like the other hens and eat food available on roads n farms....
Chikki's Mom: no my dear daughter....we are born with a purpose....to serve man kind with chicken delicacies and eggs for the omelette which helps all the bachelor boys n girls to have a proper meal.... we arent like any other chicken....we are the army chicken....we lay our lives in front of the humans when times comes to sacrifice our lives.... we serve the purpose of biological cycle and we should respect it....
Chikki: But mommy....didn't daddy loose his life like this...didnt tht old bald head man kill him in front of us....do we have to see our family die!!....how fair is it for god?.... I dont want to be in the cage...i want a free life n roam around the city...I wanna see charminar and eat grains on the road....Its my life time wish.... I will do it mommy.,..I will do it!
Chikki Mom:(wiping a tear from her eye).... Tu bilkul apne baap pe gaya hai!.... feel happy tht we are born for a purpose and we are serving it....Many humans out there still dunno their purpose of life n keep reading books on philosophy to know their purpose.... our lives are much simpler beta.....
Chikki: To hell with mommy and her old ways of thinking....this old baldy will have a hell of time killing me....I should not be any other chicken in his shop....I am special.... and I will prove it....
One day later:
The butcher gets a big deal for a birthday party and plans to kill around 10 chicken for it.... fortunate or unfortunate....chikki(tho young) is chosen along with her mom and few of her family members....they are all shifted to a new cage n dumped into a truck.....Chikki is all excited with this change in her routine n boring life....but chikki's mom starts praying and chants some vedic mantras....
Chikki: Mom what are u recanting?
Chikki's Mom: Beta, I am doin some meditation and yoga to ease me of pain and suffering when I die.... U shud also do it....our end is near....we will all die in a while....(wipes a tear from her eye)
The butcher comes to the birthday bash and his brother-in-law who runs a catering service is seen there.... he hands over the chickens to the caterer and runs along on his way since his beautiful wife is pregnant with a baby girl[oh are u already getting to where I am getting]....(btw scanning in illegal in India so it cannot be said tht its a baby girl before she is born.... but the family wanted a girl...yes yes they are revolutionary parents who want girl instead of boy[:D])
The chicken are taken form the cage and killed one by one....since chikki is the smallest of all...the caterer kills all the other chicken and finally ends up with chikki....chikki starts fuming up with rage seeing her mother die and shouts on top of his voice...makes weird noises and flaps its little wings as hard as it can.... it tries to free itself from the caterer's hand but fails miserably at it.... The caterer sighs and wipes his sweat from the brow as he kills chikki....
In Gandhi Govt Hospital:
The butcher's wife is all sweating and finally lets out one big sigh and drops unconscious....a little while later.... the doctor is cleaning blood off a baby girl...the butcher runs in and is all happy....they look at her sharp nose like tht of a chicken and decide to name her chikki[;)].....
Now chikki grows up to be a girl with all good manners and proper education.... but she is no ordinary child....he has visions....visions tht she went to charminar and buying grains from the road side vendor!.... her parents rub it off as child fantasies but chikki knows tht its not just a dream....
As chikki grows up and becomes a 10 year old child....her dad takes her to his shop and begins on his work...the moment chikki saw the chicken struggle and whine in pain...something happens!!....she instinctively jumps with happiness and asks her dad to keep teh chickens whining for some more time....the butcher is puzzled but doesn't want to disappoint his daughter n keep playing with the chicken to make then shout n whine in pain n agony....
He then kills the chicken and starts to parcel it for a customer.... chikki stops her dad....why!!
Chikki: Dad!...this chicken had chikungunya....dont give it to customers.....
Dad: how do you know it beti?....
Chikki: I heard it talk to the other chicken....believe me daddy....lets not sell this chicken to anyone....
Customer: what is this bhayya!!....I am not taking any of this chicken with me now....ur own daughter says some shit that this chicken is not good...what kind of business do you run!!....
......(To be continued)

IT and Dowry- Are they Anti?
I know i came up wit a crap title looking for praaasa[:D]....
This post is about an article in Hindu by Chandra Kommera which was titled "IT revolution and declining dowry practice".(28 th October, Hyd edition, page 14)....Its an open page where people can write in and it gets published.
Major contents of article are as follow....
1. Men getting high end job....much of salary goin into savings, making them rupee millionaires in short time(how short is it anyway!....dont talk abt dollar earning junta...India ke junta ke baare mein bhi socho na!)......they are reluctant to ask/accept dowry as they do not need to care for money!!(Oh ppl who earn enuf dont worry abt money anymore!!....wat a conclusion!)....Even when parents are insisting....the youth are refusing(Not always....in 90% of cases....its the parents who ask since the guys themselves dont want it but cant "disappoint" his parents....ahaa!!....if men are strong enuf...they shud be able to convince their parents....else its the same thing....the men are asking for dowry anthey!)
2. On par with men, women are also getting highly paid jobs. This making them assert themselves are reject any marriage proposals from men who ask for dowry(Oh c'mon now....there mite be women like this but they wud actually not fit into the arranged marriage scenario....also its the women who expect money from their parents as well....in the form of property...gold and what not!!..... There are few who dont expect but most of the women do expect money from parents for their future families!)
3. Inter caste marriages....with teh advent of IT jobs...a new social class emerged who way of life is homogeneous across castes(mmmm....yeah agree to some extent....but even now caste rules the basis for many and it rings a bell for almost many pairs..... wat the author is discussing is restricted to about 5% of marriages many be).....This gave an opportunity for the youth to look beyond their caste resulting in more choices(Oh man!! I strongly believe that in arranged marriages....caste is still the major and top most criterion for selecting partners....look beyond is only for some people who fall in love or are quite liberal in their views and were able to convince their parents as well).
4. Increasing financial independence at a young age is prompting the youth to opt for love marriages rather than arranged marriages which lead to non dowry marriages (vammo!!....devudaaa!!.... this is one of the most erroneous statement in the whole article....financial independence is okay....the word "prompting" is an impromptu.....people aren't prompted to opt for love coz of financial independence....love was thr since ages....just tht they get to marry their chosen one now much easily than before due to this independence...but this is not the reason to opt for love!!..... and who said tht all love marriages are non dowry ones!!....parents still give their kids what they planned to and it cannot be called dowry since the groom or even the bride isint demanding it.....its just the parents love that is making them give wat they wanted to.....this is just one side of the coin....but true most of the times.....)
5.The girls parents are preferring a less dowry/non dowry/software engineer to IAS/IPS grooms.(now now this mite be true for various reasons....they prefer less dowry non dowry and software engineer only when the guy is settled....well to do family and all...else u look back...there are so many marriages which still have dowry going on in the background....Its a matter of pride and prestige(cooker :P)....even for the guy to flaunt how much their wives get from home..... and I agree many families are taking it the other way round...but majority still runs on this and there is no denial of it).
Over all..... I would seriously condemn the act of dowry.....but the article's conclusions are all based on the wrong reasons and I don't support it. I was surprised that a news paper like Hindu published this article without much data and facts to prove the statements that he made......Either way....gave me a chance to discuss how dowry is handled and dealt with.... I am talking from a telugu household perspective since I am form one.....If this blog content has hurt someone's sentiments or ego or morale..... Go hide in a cave[:P]..... This is my blog and i rule over here......

5.The girls parents are preferring a less dowry/non dowry/software engineer to IAS/IPS grooms.(now now this mite be true for various reasons....they prefer less dowry non dowry and software engineer only when the guy is settled....well to do family and all...else u look back...there are so many marriages which still have dowry going on in the background....Its a matter of pride and prestige(cooker :P)....even for the guy to flaunt how much their wives get from home..... and I agree many families are taking it the other way round...but majority still runs on this and there is no denial of it).
Over all..... I would seriously condemn the act of dowry.....but the article's conclusions are all based on the wrong reasons and I don't support it. I was surprised that a news paper like Hindu published this article without much data and facts to prove the statements that he made......Either way....gave me a chance to discuss how dowry is handled and dealt with.... I am talking from a telugu household perspective since I am form one.....If this blog content has hurt someone's sentiments or ego or morale..... Go hide in a cave[:P]..... This is my blog and i rule over here......

School Days.....Those Silly Times
It was sunday morning and me and my school frend somnath were sitting at nrupatunga degree college to write our mock cat exam and we had some more time to go....we were discussing abt sentiments during exams and that is the reason why we stuck to the same stationary we used when we got lucky in our exams..... then we went back to school days and som was asking me if i remembered how he n vamsi use to sharpen the already speck like pencils and use them....he he i rem it all too.....they even used to put pen caps onto it to gain support for their miniature art pencil pieces and write up with it....the talk ended n exam started..../yes night i was thinking about school days and then i went into splits of laughter for i cud remember so many crazy things we did in school!!....
1. I remember some pencil sharpening competition of sort that happened and ppl shapened their pencils as much as they cud n made them teh smallest ones on this earth and laid them besides each other above the green board in the classroom.....
2. I remember pavani kicking me hard on my butt for various number of times when i came to school and was placing my basket in the shelf....and one fine day, she gave that kick of hers to my innocent sis who accidentally looked like me from behind....he he
3. I remember the 9th class days when me anirudh n sandeep sat in one bench and sandeep use to fart so much that me n ani used to scold him directly for doin it since teh smell was unbearable....
4. I remember sitting besides sridhar and raghu in 9th class and used to tease sridhar for every second word that he used to say.....
5. I remember sitting in front of neeharika vamsi and pratyusha and vamsi always cracking insane out of the mind jokes on pratyusha..... whenever she used to kick him and feel that she has given him a hard kick...he used to coolly turn arnd and say" did you call me...looked like u patted on my shoulder!!"
6. I remember how we used to tease social sir in 9th class when everybody tried poking him with their dividers and that sir so engrossed in his teaching missed it all.....
7. I remember how boys used to wait for ramanamma didi's class in 10th....she was my fav teacher in school but the guys loved it for all the wrong reasons!!
8. I remember how shobha didi, our English teacher dozed off while correcting my notes in 9th class and i dared to pick up two fighting lice from her hair since i cudnt resist myself from picking them up.....
9. I remember how i used to fight with phani who used to sit in front of me in 10th for he never allowed to park my feet under his sitting bench!!.... I actually hated him le....
10. I remember how vamsi used to enlighten shivaramakrishna in 10th class, sitting in teh first bench and how they used to bend down unable to control the laughter from their own silly jokes....

It was still fun coz chanakya and vamsi craked the most sick jokes on naveen and me harmeet and chandrika always had our ears glued to what they were saying(even in classes).... its different that vamsi was trying to impress chandrika in the process and must say he did a gud job[:P]....

I Me Myself
What does it take to be a perfect human!!...I mean a perfectly acceptable human[:P]..... I am tired sometimes of all teh stress stain pain n of course teh gain i go thru[:D].... its teh same old boring life...nothing exciting...like the mountain dew ad tht says " Jhoot bolthey hai woh log jo kehte hai ki unhe darr nahi lagta... darr sabhi ko lagta hai aur gala sabhi ka sukhta hai"...... similarly only liars say tht their life is ever interesting n fun types.... It gets boring at one stage n you yearn to come out of it at any cost!!.... I sometimes get weirdest of thoughts.... i am penning down few of them that i could recollect now.... It can make ur life exciting...i must say!!
1. I will set up a school or institute for people who want to learn backward handwriting or mirror handwriting and teach them fast n efficient way of writing the same.....all teh alphabets n letters are reversed in this handwriting...i learnt it from my brother who writes it amazingly well... i put up a decently fast job in it....
2. I will go and anchor the Aditya TV programs for I believe i can do a better job than them at any cost!!.... I always wanted to become an RJ, be it part time or full time... any radio station i wouldn't mind.... i know now all my friends who will read this blog shall scream in unison" its not u who doesn't mind it...its them...teh radio fellas who will kill themselves for hiring you[:P]"
3. I always wanted to taste the dishes that they show on TV...they make them so well and they look so delicious...mind u teh word is "look".... and then give out my opinion unlike teh anchors of TV who gulp down the first spoon with much difficulty and take some time to come out of teh disaster and say" chalaa bagundandi....mana viewers kooda try cheyyali tappakunda"...oh yeah u think we are dumbos.... after tht very enigmatic performance of teh anchor which can win an oscar.... i shall not dare to make tht dish!!....
4. Try testing your patience...tune into any of teh soap operas and leave the remote untouched...teh max time u can stay with teh remote untouched....divided by your height and weight give your patience index.... ante generally inta height and weight ki inta koopam or impatience avasarama antunatru kada[:P]...anduke divide it off with ur height n weight ya....
5. try holding out your hand at the rtc bus drivers in hyd and ask them to stop...if he stops... he is no less than god...if he doesn't...he is no less than a cockroach....huh....
6. I hate teh auto fellows in hyd so much tht i stopped goin in the autos...its not tht i like the bus drivers...they have such an arrogance in their manner.... I rem one driver screaming on some two wheeler driver that he will let the bus go on their vehicle n he shall be safe for the union will support him....its just absurd!!... and they just don care...there are good drivers too(only the ones who stop the bus when i show my hand[:D]).... but most of them use foul language on teh passengers....like we are goin to have an uninvited lunch at their place!!....haaah....
Cant think of many right now.... but life was amazing in engg...those were the best days of my life.... if given a chance...even bill gates wants to just sit n lazily scratch his head and drink tea!!....
1. I will set up a school or institute for people who want to learn backward handwriting or mirror handwriting and teach them fast n efficient way of writing the same.....all teh alphabets n letters are reversed in this handwriting...i learnt it from my brother who writes it amazingly well... i put up a decently fast job in it....
2. I will go and anchor the Aditya TV programs for I believe i can do a better job than them at any cost!!.... I always wanted to become an RJ, be it part time or full time... any radio station i wouldn't mind.... i know now all my friends who will read this blog shall scream in unison" its not u who doesn't mind it...its them...teh radio fellas who will kill themselves for hiring you[:P]"
3. I always wanted to taste the dishes that they show on TV...they make them so well and they look so delicious...mind u teh word is "look".... and then give out my opinion unlike teh anchors of TV who gulp down the first spoon with much difficulty and take some time to come out of teh disaster and say" chalaa bagundandi....mana viewers kooda try cheyyali tappakunda"...oh yeah u think we are dumbos.... after tht very enigmatic performance of teh anchor which can win an oscar.... i shall not dare to make tht dish!!....
4. Try testing your patience...tune into any of teh soap operas and leave the remote untouched...teh max time u can stay with teh remote untouched....divided by your height and weight give your patience index.... ante generally inta height and weight ki inta koopam or impatience avasarama antunatru kada[:P]...anduke divide it off with ur height n weight ya....

I rem one driver screaming on some two wheeler driver that he will let the bus go on their vehicle n he shall be safe for the union will support him....its just absurd!!... and they just don care...there are good drivers too(only the ones who stop the bus when i show my hand[:D]).... but most of them use foul language on teh passengers....like we are goin to have an uninvited lunch at their place!!....haaah....
Cant think of many right now.... but life was amazing in engg...those were the best days of my life.... if given a chance...even bill gates wants to just sit n lazily scratch his head and drink tea!!....

AD World- My Biggest Fascination
Ads...be it on tv...on radio or hoardings.... posters...ads in any form have attracted my attention for more than 5 years...ever since i was out of hostel in inter n took up engg in hyd....i have been glued up to tv...not for serials....but for the ads that pop up in between...there has been a shift of ads from information oriented to touching our emotional conscience....few of my fav ads which i can never forget over years....
1. The Surf Excel "Daag Achha Hai" ads.... the most amazing of ideas one can ever imagine.... stained clothes are a mess and advertising a product for the same is much of a pain in the @#$.... I have grown up seeing washing powder Nirma all my life...never expected ad world to take such exciting and innovative ways of launching n promoting products..... A stain is a pain and the whole idea of stains is a negative aspect....and then suddenly there comes a product.... shows tht stains are gud!!.... the negative aspect of stains is all lost now...its a whole new positive perspective for the viewers!!.... "Agar Daag se kuch Achha hota hai toh Daag Achha Hai!!"..... woah!!... one of teh smartest ad of all times....when u cud drive the sense that staining ur clothes isint so bad after all with so much gud happening with it and we anyway have our product to wash it....why fear!!.... We have been using surf excel anyway at home...but even otherwise I would have ensured we bout surf excel from then on :D.... I hope to meet teh maker of that ad some day.....
the two ads with kids around drive teh point strongly coz kids spread a charm n innocence in whatever they do... the sorry cheptunnadu ad or the fight between two kids...both are equally gud....teh catching the wool for grandma is lil dull ad toh...compared with the other two....
2. Nescafe ad with extraordinary visual backdrops and a wonderful humming tune with gud lyrics....
"Open your eyes and open your mind....
open your heart dont stay behind.... Nescafe"
3. The johnson and johnson ad with a mother feeling her child's hand and worrying about teh child.... I love the song too much toh....
"Entoh sunnitam neevu...emanalika neetoh....
Ghabaraga undi manassu... porabatemaina aiethey"
4. The recent Pepsi ad featuring sharuk n john.... teh concept is just cool but the effect of two stars drives across teh point much more strongly....
5. And like teh himesh reshmiyya effect.... teh effect means u can hate and detest it...but u cant hide from it!!.... the Nirma ad which has trasormed itself over years.... i rem both the songs...penning it down....
Old:
Washing powder nirma.... deeni nuraga chesenu maya jalam... cant rem teh lyrics tht follow...
Latest:
Rekha Seema jaya aur Sushma sab ki pasand naya nirma.... washing powder nirma.....
6. The HCL ad where the car owner is made a fool reminds me of so many ppl who are exactly like him :D.... It s a gud ad according to me for it blends humour with some good facts about teh company....point driven across since ppl love humour in ads!!....
7. the master card with a son taking his parents around the city..... watching ur parents become children again...priceless.... for everything else there is master card :D....
8. The naukri.com ads...the Hari Sadu ad and the washroom ad...both are cool and u just smile when u see them.....
I am sure i missed many ads that i actually smiled n enjoyed all thru when i saw them...will keep updating when n while i see them....
I am one person at home who waits for ads all teh time..while my family gets pissed when ads turn up too frequently...im the one enjoys every bit of teh ads and classify them as gud better best... cud have been better.... worst...why did they make this ad....he he he... keep watching i have much more to tell abt ads for its my big time interest and i love teh way ppl drive home their points in the most innovative n sometimes in teh most cliched way....

My Musings on Lizards and syemya pulav
I was watching tv one day sitting on the sofa and engrossed in the show..... some show called "ma inti vanta" on some local telugu channel..... bambino syemya toh pulav anta.... nenu kooda cheyyagalanu ilanti chetta vanta aiethey ani choosestunna....
The lizard on teh wall was probably watching it too for it was so engrossed in it that it fell from teh wall.... atleast this was my first thot on it..... then i saw it slowly advancing towards the tv stand..... shit enti ippudu atu elli em peekutundi anukunna....ah!!...there was a mosquito thr.... teh mosquito that i have killed just a while ago with my own hands..... I guess its atma is already gone with the wind and taken a re birth as human for it died in my hands.....he he he... its on u to take it as a privilege to be born as a human or as a sin...... this lizard went slowly thinking tht its a live mosquito but realizing tht its dead... just went cooly and zapped it with its tongue and climbed teh wall behind teh tv...... Mission accomplished anukuna aa balli ki.... now now i have a doubt...very rarely do u see lizards on teh floor trying to catch a mosquito...they never dare to come down kada...at least not in teh broad tube lite[:P]...... enduku ochhindi.... reasons that i cud think of......
1. i was wondering if its an episode of who dares win for teh lizards being conducted in the kitchen wall where some 4 or 5 lizards are always present grouped together discussing something big.....at least they look so engrossed that u tend to think so......
2. May be its a male lizard trying to impress the lady lizard that was on the wall besides the tv....
3. may be the lizard on teh side wall was a core competitor for my lizard and it was a do or die situation for my lizard....
4. last but not teh least...may be it was just too hungry that it came down all teh way for the mosquito.....
The Lizard View:
Abba.... malla tokkalo ma inti vanta program.... how tired im eating this silly insects all teh time...i wish i was outdoors...at least i get to try new varieties...these humans also na... they show me all new n diff things..... i rem my mom now...she taught me to try hard n achieve what i want.... and that box over there is showing something gud to look at...lemme give it a try.... i know conventional lizards aren't supposed to come down onto floors when ppl are arnd.... but i have seen rang de in teh very same box and i realized that i am a born rebel!!..... here i come u box.... i need that thing which looks like many rat tails grouped together.....
Oh my gawd!!...whats this... a mosquito.... i need to think fast.... have to use my mba taught decision making skills ryt now.... do i go ahead for tht dish in teh box being shown or grab what god has granted.... a bird in ahnd worth two in bush or it is the two birds tht matter to me now....quick!!... decision making skills...i topped it too!!.... okay let me just do inky pinky ponky..... (after a struggling session of inky pinky ponky teh lizard goes for the mosquito).... hey god!!...ur amazing.... u made me take teh ryt decision...this mosquito is dead..... its not moving at all.... this is my chance of a meal for today....here i come.....
The Mosquito View:
La la laaa la la laaa la la la laaa laaa..... how well i pretended to die in teh hands of tht stupid girl who thot tht she killed me for i lied flat when she hit me.... she dropped me dead but little does she knw tht im still alive..... im in trance now..... eyes closed.... life smooth.... vibrating noise from teh electronic thing called tv..... no wonder i did a gud thing by doin ece engg..... i know the human appliances and their working..... la la laaa la la laa laaa la laaaa..... im smart and intelligent.... i can beat humans....
The lizard comes and sees that the mosquito is still alive...yet lizard tendency valla it zaps and takes in the mosquito.....
(imp lesson here....always do a PG after UG for it helps in strategic decision making :P)
(imp lesson two: never feel happy abt out smarting teh unnecessary..... look out for imemdiate enemies than far fetched ones :P)
The Other Lizard on the side wall:
Hmm.... its my day!!... i just shot a lizard violating the law and coming onto teh floor to eat a mosquito...wait till i submit this in teh court........ gud tht i captured teh whole thing in my cam now...movie contest ki na entry kinda ee short film pamputha.... this is my day i must say...thank god i dint go for tht mosquito for i wud have missed a great film to shoot and got stuck with teh other lizard violating the laws!!..... wait till i tel it to the other lizard and demand money to keep it hidden from law.....after all i did a degree in film making and law for money.... its my life...its money or nothing... im gonna shoot forever.......
Me again:
ento ee balli mohalu ila illantha tirugutunte kastham ga undi...bhayam vestundi.... anavasaram ga ee mosquito ni champa..... elli syemya pulav cheskunta inka..... im hungry.....
God:
Yehe tokkalodi ee prapancham lo okkalu silent n simple ga aloochincharu kabolu...everybody wants to make money and violate teh laws rules and regulations.... its tough to handle such living things.... i wish i was transferred to teh non living management dept.... its much easier...so wat if teh increments are much lower there.....at least i dont have to handle dynamic analysis and conclusions!!..... Have to put up a strong fite to escape these boring circular analysis case studies from Milky Way!!! :D

Happy Days!!!! :D
After a long long time, i am finally blogging over a simple thing as waiting for an upcoming movie called happy days..... I have been waiting crazily over the past few weeks for the audio release and it finally happened. The songs are really cool and Mickey has put up a gud work... I would encourage ppl into buying the audio than downloading it..... The trailer on tv is driving everyone crazy!!
I think the freshness in teh movie comes across much more strongly since the cast is all new n bubbly.... tamanna stands out abv the rest toh.... Its all about loving your College Life would be my tag line for this movie.... I found out from few of my frends that this desparation is not restricted to me alone but to them as well...... 21st is too far a date to approach so fast.... but its gonna be worth it.... heard tht the overseas thing is doin well.... and sekhar as made a smart move in producing it himself along with his brother..... I am a great fan of shekar kammula and have seen both his movie atleast some 5 to 6 times till now..... Well the trailer makes me nostalgic and drives me to watch it as soon as possible...the ideal trait of a trailer has been fulfilled by the editing team!!.... The songs are too gud but my fav remains on jil jil jigar and are rey.... naresh has done an excellent job in are rey..... its never weighing each of them against one another.... they are all gud in their own way.... have been following up every bit of the movie since its audio release..... My desktop background is teh happy days wallpaper at the beach.... the guys n girls standing along the boat and in their won worlds.... he he... teh guys hands are all tanned toh :D.... the only clever guy is teh guy who has worn a full hands t shirts and hence remains safe..... he he...have seen teh posters and there is some spark in each of them...guess its the liveliness and the frame that made it so very diff.... I liked the boy cut girl and her pair very much...somehow the lead pair is anyway gud to look at... but this pair looks spl to me..... The curly hair girls looks sweet in certain snaps.... her guy looks very tall and handsome.... the last pair is teh studious pair according to me... he he.... Looks like i can submit a thesis on this movie very soon....The audio has been a huge hit and here are teh singers and writers for those songs.... lifted from idle brain toh....
Signing off.....

Looks like i can submit a thesis on this movie very soon....The audio has been a huge hit and here are teh singers and writers for those songs.... lifted from idle brain toh....
1. Arey Re Arey Re
This instantly likeable melody about the guy realizing that he is in love is not only worded nicely by Vanamali but is also sung wonderfully by Karthik.
2. Jil Jil Jinga 
This animated number about the day to day life of a student could become an anthem among the youth thanks to new lyricist Venkatesh Patwari’s catchy lyrics that comprise of all quintessential keywords that the youth understand and relate to. Though it has a faint semblance to We will, we will, rock you, this one is impressive. Four local (Hyderabad based) singers – Krishna Chaitanya, Kranthi, Aditya Siddarth, Shashi Kiran – sing this one appreciably bringing out the joie de vivre of youth quite well. Mickey adds a slight rock flavor to this song.
3. Happy Days – Rock Version/Theme song
National Award winner Naresh Iyer (for Rubaroo in Rang De Basanthi) and Mickey J Meyer come together again (after a soulful O Chilakamma in Notebook) to give us a gem of a title song. This is a new sound to a Telugu Cinema song and it rocks. Well, it has a nice rock feel to it too. While Naresh is asked to sing the main lines, Mickey does all the humming and croons the words happy days.
If the above is the rock version, there’s a soft, melodious version of the title song named ‘Theme song’ sung by Harshika, Mickey and chorus. This makes for a very pleasant listening and is equally good as its rock counterpart.
4. Oh My FriendAn excellent number extolling the importance of a friend and friendship. Vanamali’s lyrics shine brighter than a star and Karthik, with his enthralling vocals, bowls you over proving that he has evolved into a seasoned artiste in a very short time. Mickey maintains a nice tempo throughout the song adding a slight upbeat orchestration in the second interlude. Overall, what a song! If slow songs are your cup of tea (or should I say coffee keeping in mind the caption of Shekar Kammula’s Anand?), then you just can’t afford to miss this one.
5. Ye Cheekati
This is the only ‘heard before’ kinda song in this album and that’s mainly due to the use of a common music loop that runs in the background. Though fast paced with nice beats thrown in, it doesn’t match up to the standards of other songs in this album. Vanamali’s lyrics are praiseworthy though. Ranjith and Sunitha Sarathy sing this one.
6. Yaakundedu
This is a shloka recited by Pranavi in a heavenly manner. This Keeravani find, has recently sung the popular Rubberu Gaajulu number in Yama Donga. Compare her rendition here with the aforementioned song and you wonder if we have another versatile singer in the making ala Chitra, Sunitha and Usha.
Mickey J Meyer and Vanamali, after a successful (musically speaking) Notebook, add yet another feather to their caps with Happy Days. Yes Veturi’s title song rocks too. If you’ve waited for a soundtrack that is devoid of nonsensical, out of place, unnecessary rap in the songs. If you’ve longed for an album that shuns crass mass songs/item songs and serves us fresh, lively and melodious numbers then look no further than Happy Days. Clearly, this one ranks very high among the very few good albums that have come out this year in Telugu. Looks like Shekar Kammula already has a winner in his hands.
That says it all...now just wait and watch for the release of teh movie....... 21ts it comes or may be 14th.... See or Die is my word for this movie.....Signing off.....

A Visit to Remember :-)
I run across the road and slam the door of smitha’s car and apologise “I am sorry, I am late by two mins: P”. Both of us laugh away and talk about some crappy jokes like “What is ashoka with six fingers called?”(Pss…dont think much…he is still called ashoka: P)….. Why cant two last strands of hair on a bald head of an indian marry? (Coz bal-vivah is banned in
We were around the corner trying to spot the exact lane while two kids pop up and I instantly recognize them….” Hi ra get into the car…guide us form here…ae lane loki vellali”…. teh kids ever enthusiastically explain the directions and at the next corner we see two more kids waiting for us…woah!! These kids love it when people come to visit them… or may be visiting me emo :)….he he he….All the while in the car...the two kids were sliding the window up and down and enjoying the sight... they do it...they turn to us..they laugh..we laugh...after a while we came to the place...
I taught them “Hum ko mann ki shakthi dena” song….. I cudnt believe my eyes when arnd the 8th time….. One guy started singing it all by himself without seeing the paper…. Now cmon…how many of you actually got ur songs by heart in school arnd the 8th time itself…at least not me…even if I was totally paying attention to the song….. They recited the version with slightly diff tune that they had made up while learning since my tune was may be not appealing to them….
Then we have this regular round of activities by the kids where they dance…sing… do both simultaneously (multi talented u see- astonishingly they don’t even gasp when they are doin them together)… they act…they laugh at themselves while acting and keep reminding each other when they go wrong at anything (they hate doing things the wrong way u see J)… they cheer and clap for their friends when they are performing … I exactly saw UNITY in its true spirit…..
The love and affection they share for each other is amazing…. The love they show towards u wud suffocate u…. U are nothing more than a stranger to them….But they treat u like they have known u for years…. They tease you like
Honestly, when I went there for the first time…I was just hoping to spend some time with the kids…teach them something I know…make them feel happy and come back…. But now I go coz I love goin there and I love being amongst them…rather one among them…. U feel like goin back coz u learn so much there… I went there to teach but I ended up learning more than what I taught to them… I learnt that, love in its purest form, appeals to everyone and touches
My single visit turned into a sequence of visits…thanks to the wonderful kids who brought back all my childhood memories…. I love them all and this is just a speck of how I felt when I went to spoorthi… U have to be there to know what I meant….

Manasa song lyrics- Munna Movie
One hell of a song i liked recently...after lot of googling and not finding teh lyrics...i decided to pen them myself after listening to teh song[:)]
manasa nuvvunde choote cheppamma
manase neekedo cheppalandamma
ninna monna ee vainam nalo ledamma
ee roojedo aanandam champestondamma (2)
oh sona vennela sona
nenanta nuvvaiyana
nee rupu rekhallona
nenundi velugaipona
oh sona vennela sona
nee vaale kannullona
na chitram chitrinchena
kanupapai poona
manasa nuvvunde choote cheppamma
manase neekedo cheppalandamma
ninna monna ee vainam nalo ledamma
ee roojedo aanandam champestondamma
ooo ooo ooo in same tune for all four lines
neeve todani nijanga
neelo cheriti kramanga
neevunte oka yugame
aiepoye ika kshaname
telusa telusa idi telusa
marchesave na ee varasa
nuvvu marchesave na ee varasa
oh sona vennela sona
repave allari jana..aaahaaa
chekkillo chukkaipona
choopultoh chuttey sena
oh sona vennela sona
mungitlo muggai rana
muddultoh munchesena
kaugili ke rana
manasa nuvvunde choote cheppamma
manase neekedo cheppalandamma
ninna monna ee vainam nalo ledamma
ee roojedo aanandam champestundamma
music and some lyrics in english
koose koyila swayanga
vale vakita varangan
ee oose adi telipe
maunam ga madi murise
kalisa kalisa neetoh kalisa
neelo ninde anni maricha
hooo neelo ninde anni maricha
oh sona vennela sona
nee vaipe ochhanamma
nee oohe kannanamma
naa oose pampanamma
oh sona vennela sona
nee gunde chappullona
na pranam nimpanamma
ninu cheranamma
manasa nuvvunde choote cheppamma
manase neekedo cheppalandamma
ninna monna ee vainam nalo ledamma
ee roojedo aanandam champestundamma
oh sona vennela sona
nenanta nuvvaiyana
music
oh sona vennela sona
nee vaale kannullona (2)
manasa nuvvunde choote cheppamma
manase neekedo cheppalandamma
ninna monna ee vainam nalo ledamma

oh sona vennela sona

nee rupu rekhallona
nenundi velugaipona
