Action Replay Y-Not?

hparmekar — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 08:52:48 +0000

So here we are now. The New Bollywood Movie Akshay Kumar and Aishwarya Rai Starrer “Action Replay’y'” is releasing. But have you noticed the funny part over here. I am sure it’s visible to everyone and yes i am talking about the title of the movie Action Replayy with the two Y’s in Replayy. According to Director Vipul Shah he has purposely added the other ‘Y’ to the title and the reason behind it his logic of Numerology. Can you believe it? Numerology. I know we are all familiar with such words in the past for Bollywood titles and for a matter of fact the television serials too but do they not get it a story is what matters for the audience and not the adding of letters here and there on their film titles. Also sometimes the releasing dates of the movie is changed due to Numerical reasons but does it help? This kind of answers i cannot get into, numerology may help or may not but according to me what matters is ‘Story’,'Screenplay’,'Music’ and sometimes the ‘Artiste’ and various other reasons added. Don’t know about you guys?

Note: I have nothing against Numerology but i do not believe it. Just my personal Opinion.

Versova – Madh Island

hparmekar — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 15:46:33 +0000

Well I know i am blogging after a long time but i had to write, experienced something which i wanted to share. Well this is for all the people who travel from Versova to Madh Island if you want to reach Madh Island within to say 5 mins please take a ferry from Versova Village. It takes Rs 2 to reach Madh from Versova via ferry, yes i am not kidding. The above video is the evidence of this. I traveled from Madh to Versova and Versova to Madh Island in this ferry. Yes it’s a little conjusted when you reach and travel through Verova cillage, its a little bit lonely in the night as if you have landed in a no man’s land in Mumbai but it’s worth it. I mean in a place like Mumbai where traffic is a major issue to reach a place in 2 minutes is something to think of. I just took the above video because i couldn’t just resist, so took my iPhone and started recording. The Jetty stops outside the Bus Depot in Madh and the people are also helpful. So the Next time you want to reach Madh in 2 minutes try this.

Education Limited to Books

Was travelling towards Andheri Station from my place in a bus. Was waiting in the bus for the bus to start don’t know why but my mood was off. Was talking on my iPhone and side by side tweeting too, was sitting in the second last seat of the BEST bus, suddenly boys of age 10-12 entered the bus all Muslim guys i came to know that while they were referring to each other by common Muslim names. Well i got a call was obviously important one of the kid starting yelling his friends giving Abuses which i might have not even heard when i started abusing, but they were using such abuses wearing a St.Joseph school uniform. I turned behind looked behind and told him to talk softly. He kept quiet but that wasn’t the end when his classmates were standing out of the bus waiting for another bus one of the other Kid started abusing the group of girls and which was taken as a source of entertainment by him and his co-mates. It irked me very much felt like punching the kid on his face but i cannot because he is a kid and i am an adult. They were travelling in the bus for more than 15-20 minutes and not even one sentence did they not frame the sentence properly, because all the sentences were filled with abuses. There were less words and more abuses.

I mean kids in 8th Standard abusing like adults and also abusing girls at this age what will they do when they grow up Rape Girls. What kind of literacy is this no Moral ethics. If it would have been my kid i would have beaten him that much that the next time he sees a girl he would give double the respect. Even we do abuse come on you can’t control abusing but at this tender age and abusing like adults. What is it proving or displaying? Schools should understand that Book knowledge is not everything come on teach them ethics and other of those sorts. Parents also are to be held responsible, you live in a different environment fine but atleast take the effort of what your kid is framing in his mind. Adults abuse because we tend to loose our temper but kids no way. I am sorry to say this but i am ashamed on St. Joseph, Juhu do something about literacy in in the ethical world.

Note : Religion name is just taken to show disgrace towards minority this goes for all the kids around the world and to each and every single parent. Learn and Teach some ETHICS.

CorpoRATS….

hparmekar — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 13:04:36 +0000

I have always seen corporates running here and there boarding the local train on time… Reaching office on time… Catching the same bus on time…. And usually complaining if any of these things gets delayed or if they are an hour or to say minutes late saying “Arey bhai jaldi karo bahut kaam hain…. Arey bhai mereko office jaldi jaana hain bahut kaam hain”. Well we all know in Mumbai almost crores of rupees can be earned in a minute and lakhs of rupees can be deducted from the bank account… But what i do not understand is this even if one minute they are late they start cribbing about getting late and going into loss because of that delay of a minute… I being working in a media house personally don’t feel that if you waste or come late by a minute you it’s a big deal…. I mean in my office building the electricity had gone off for more than 12 hours because the generator had some problem but trust me we did not loose on anything and the work which we were suppose to do that day got postponed to other day… And nor did we loose anything… But in that span of time when electricity had gone in our building, i saw man corporates running here and there just like rats do and shouting at the watchman saying just the same thing ” Mera Dhanda bet jayega”… I have seen office going people log on to FB and doing all the possible time pass they could have ever imagined… So corporates what is it that you guys crib for? Your T.P. or serious work? I seriously sometimes fail to understand these Rats…

Work Environment or Money? Biggest Question

hparmekar — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 12:43:02 +0000

I asked my Branch Head today. Sir as you know i have been working here from past one month.. . You keep yourself in place of mine and think But what if you get a offer from a big company ready to hire you, telling you that you quit your current company and be ready to join us, giving you decent incentives BUT at the same point you know that the work environment currently where you are working is just superb with superb people around and your age is just 22 how will you make a decision? He said its easy himanshu if you are getting good paid over there and it’s a huge company i will quit the current job and be ready to shift as i want to experience more challenge and want to grow. I said ok sir but what if the current company is close to your heart what if the people around them are really sweet and close to your heart… how will it affect your decision then…. He said Himanshu first of all big company means big challenge means huge experience obviously the present company where we are working currently will always be close to my heart but you have to think about the future too… Will i be able to cope up? Will i be able to work? Do i have a chance in future? These questions need to be answered first and then the decision will take place automatically. I said sir you have still not understood and answered my question? My question was simple Will you choose Money or Work Environment at a young age. Well i am confused to the core? I have still 11 months to go but what after that or even if i don’t have 11 months and if i get an offer from a big company what do i do? What is the main criteria? All this questions are just spinning around in my mind. The difficult task is to answer all these questions Logically. Well i have left in on God he will do the best.

Politeness is the Virtue.

hparmekar — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 12:02:08 +0000

As you all know what marketing is in this Business World. And as a fresher i hope most of you know what exactly it is yes yes i know sitting at one place and making calls in order to pitch new clients. Yes i know sounds fun but a twist comes when you try to call ad agencies of mumbai just try and talking to their much irritated operators and much much irritated Advertising Professionals. Try to get some information about them and see how they respond. We strive for bringing humanity in this world well all these ad agencies are just the opposite of what i call ‘Inhuman Hub’. Yes the reason why i call them Inhuman is first they do not know how to talk to people because of their unnecessary stress. They think they are the world leaders or can say the CEO of the particular brand they are handling. What i ask for is their email id’s and they reply harshly. Well let me tell you you idiots from all those big Ad agencies like Ogilvy, you have been paid to handle the brand not to own it. Marketing Professionals who like me sometimes make calls and face this kind of situation, i am not saying all ad agencies are like that but yes most of them. My sir tells me it happens you can’t be polite when you work for 20 – 20 hours a day on one account, well obviously i can’t argue with my sir but yes i can tell him Sir i truly understand but Humanity and Work never blends and should always be parallel to each other so that a Human can be a better person and can go ahead in his/her carrier too. Well me being a Advertising graduate never thought that these ‘IDIOTS’ in advertising world would be so Inhuman. But yes it may be because i am not a part of them but mostly i think it depends on person to person. I am sure if i be a Ad Professional would never work with unkindness as its not in my nature and For all those advertising professional out there try to be little polite to others it might help you in future. Politeness won’t take out 100rs from your pocket, it just takes a few minutes to be polite to people. I want and hope that all these big big ad professionals read this and understand that they are not the kings of the world. Marketing is fun till the time these people don’t **** your moods. Remember this the person who is talking to you politely is doing it for a purpose and for a reason just like you. Even he is answerable to someone, I am talking about the Marketing part.

Guys i request all of you to be polite to whoever calls you be it wrong number, mobile service provider calls, or any company calls. Just be polite it won’t take much to be polite. Even they are calling you for a reason. Please remember. Talking through my own personal experience, as even i used to cut the phone down whenever i used to get a call from Vodafone or any other Contest or anything. You **** his/her mood then he/her gets all the negative vibes and then in turn he might be angry on someone else and so on and so forth. Try to break this chain.

Rickshaw Fare not Fair

hparmekar — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 16:20:58 +0000

Well yes we all know how is it when there are no rickshaw’s on the roads of mumbai on a weekday where everyone is rushing for work. Yesterday 22/06/2010 there was a rickshaw strike demanding increase in their meter which they achieved in doing so successfully. Yes the minimum reading in the meter which was 1.00 was costing us Rs.9 and from 22/06/2010 it is going to cost us Rs.11. I mean an increase by Rs 2. Well we can’t blame them everything has increased be it our Vegetables in the market from the Milk we drink. Well i am telling you my personal experience i took an rickshaw from Mithibai College in Vile Parle to Oshiwara in Andheri(W) these places are situated in the suburban part of mumbai. The actual reading which came on the meter was 39 i.e. Rs.38 according to the previous reading but today with change in price he took Rs 49 instead i.e. nearly 50 bucks. I couldn’t help it i had to pay him that much as he din’t have the new tariff rate card and demanded that much. I din’t know that the price change has been applied from yesterday itself. He just demanded Rs 49 and i had to give him. It seems that the rate card will be issued in next 2 days as what the rickshaw driver said. But just so that you guys do not get a situation like me so please pay the rickshaw driver Rs 2 or max to max Rs 3 extra than the normal fare. If they ask more ask for the Fare Card. Rs 2 or Rs 3 won’t make a difference but these days rickshaw drivers have become too smart and have become a superb con man. Remember ask for the Tariff or Fare Card and then pay. It’s someone’s hard own money.
