How many of us have gone outside India and looked at the clean roads, pathways, trains, buses and complained that ”Well, This can never happen in India. No one would listen even if the government puts up rules”. Sadly maybe that statement is 80% true. It sounds cliché but on a strong note we should think twice before littering the road or creating any kind of public nuisance. Why am I writing about this? This incident in the bus on my way to work actually made me think!!
This person sitting next to me was eating fruits and casually kept throwing the waste out of the window. If educated people behave this way then can we complain on the illiterate people who do the same thing? All I could do was reiterate the importance of civic sense and duty to this person. Small step but I am sure it will go a long way. I strongly feel that we should at least question it when we see it happening so that people don’t take things for granted and I am sure that it would make a big difference someday.. So next time you see some one littering don’t hesitate to tell them the importance of civic duty!

Two Contrasting Movies!!
Watched two movies over this weekend.. Syriana and Darna Zaroori Hai..
One makes me wanan go back to the theater and the other makes me wanan run away from it!!
Syriana is a well directed movie about the lobbying that happens between the US and the oil barons of the middle east.. Something like Fahrenheit 9/11 which makes you think! Definetly worth a watch! Still wondering why GC won an award for this movie!! Gripping movie and strengthens your belief in the saying”rich get richer and the poor gets poorer”.
Darna zaroori hai should have been “Hasna zarrori hai”(I mean laughter…my hindi aint that good so excuse)..Its an excuse for an horror movie. How many movies can u watch which have these loud noises and silence alternating at regular intervals in a dark gloomy background(oops I forgot the rain) and some weird looking people added in for a good measure. After couple of stories I was itching to leave but couldn’t thanks to our car being stuck in the parking lot. I frankly did not think that Amitabh’s acting was exceptional or something that all reviews went ga-ga over it!Dont even waste your time with this even on a DVD!
