Ghantasala recordu

.....Are you telugu? ....Do you watch movies? ....Do you watch black and white movies? ...Do you like songs? Movie: Pelli chesi choodu (shaadi karakey dekho) An uncle whom the new groom is hiding from comes home and the new groom just has finished singing (with his bro-in-laws playing instruments) and the bride comes downstairs and the uncle asks...i just heard a song.She replies,nothing Uncle,thats a Ghantasala Record (Record short for Gramophone record). Emi leydu mamayya,Ghantasala recordu. Oh How i love the colour black white and grey. Add them to form Savitri and NTR and ANR and Reylangi and Gummadi and SP Ranaga Rao and Ramana Reddy and Suryakanth. Oh i'll never leave such a world! So you can imagine me Jumping Up and Down in Joy when i find this! Ghantasala! Waah rey waah!

Aila re cyclone naam Aila re..

...kya tu bola rey...phir se zara bolo re.... Ok really!What has gotten into people.Once a cyclone in the Bay of Bengal was called a Cyclone there. A depression,a depression. Just because the USA started name calling,did we have to? Someone kindly explain.

Bulls Charge and How

The T20 to our generation is what the ODIs were to my parents'. And Though i would probably have a lot to argue about certain things.But nope wouldnt say anything. Because. I LOVE Gilchrist (entirely now cause he's not in the australian team anymore,no grudge against them,just because they are such tough rivals) and of Course my ever favourite RP Singh! He sees,He smiles.He takes wickets. And he gets the well deserved purple cap! Yey! I was telling my mom,when we (DC)got through to the semis- that it will be so much fun if we get to play with royal challengers (though i favour CSK more) in the finals because these two teams were in a sorry state last season. And well,what superb match we got to watch in the process.Kumble we all love you at home.But the heart favours the DC for all obvious reasons. Now i wait eagerly for the t20 world cup. As usual i write only a fraction of my thoughts,because i am in a exicted state....and want to go see the presentation ceremony! Three Chee...

Jurassic Park

15 years ago,after tailing the donkey at Suchi and Shammi aunty's birthday party we watched this movie at my favourite (now no more) theatre Sangeet. We=Four of Us accompanied by an adult :)

La Cucaracha..La Cucaracha

And i suddenly remember I one cockroach. You have to keep saying this replacing "one" with two until you reach "eight". One of the hazaar silly school things,which still make me smile. (Song in my head La Cucaracha.. lyrics ) (Learnt from Icy, who was taught by Ms.Valerie)
I thought i was prepared for all of that,but seeing the photo of it starting in the newspaper it self triggered it off,i have no idea what will happen when it is actually and completely gone. I need ice cream and chocolate.Both that i shouldnt be eating. So instead i'll resort to watching Yj and Hj and other such stuff. Heartache.

Scenes of our childhood

...scenes of our youth and a 150 year old landmark.Biting the dust. Its a fact. I will never be able to get over this one,i know it for sure. I am sure this is the state of mind of lot of my fellow annites.But well i speak for myself mainly. I loved my school and i most definitely will till i breath my last.I cherish every moment i have had there,even the times i got kicked out of class (thrice,out of which twice was with the entire class :) ) Inspite of the comments about it being jail (the grey and cream colours of the walls always made us wonder..WHYYYYY!!) But now those walls dont remain,most of them. I studied in this school for twelve years. The kindergarten section was re-built while we were in school and we were very happy about it because the building we studied in was very old.And now 6 more of the classrooms i spent a year each in are no more.(Soon will be a tar road and nothing more). There will be no class rooms facing SP Road,not one.No Priya Monteiros will be able to com...

Headache

I'm not the kind who gets headaches (on a regular bases) Scenarios of when and why i may have a headache: 1.A bad cold 2.Hungry 3.Really upset or sad about something 4.Possible sight increase Present Scenario is number three.

Taare

When you wish upon a star Makes no difference who you are Anything your heart desires will come to you Didnt know this was Louis Armstrongs till recently,always knew it as the tune that played on that toy radio of ours.

what to do...what to do....

the worst thing that can happen to you intellectually is not knowing what you want. I know the things i will be able to get,easily in fact right now. But i am not sure if what i will be able to get and what i want to get are the same thing. Turmoil would be too dramatic a word to use,but i am in such a fix. The problem is,i havent had such problems in life before,thats why it is a fix. At almost all levels since when i was little i have known what i wanted and most of the time acheived it. Now the problem is just to know what i want, once that is done.I am set.

KiP

Knowledge is Power and Busy as Bees, two of the phrases we grew up being Annites. Though i am an utter disgrace to the latter, I believe entirely in the first one. There is nothing that makes you feel the way knowledge makes you feel. To everyone knowledge may mean a different thing. To me it is knowing the reciepe of my favourite poha, or making avakai, or watching Guru Dutt or Orsen wells or Jandhya or Anyone interesting works,Seeing Ansel Adam type photos,knowing to finish a pattern of muggu,learning about a new culture,land,language.knowing to solve a problem ...in math or life. Above all,knowing what i have to do tommorrow,because that covers so many things. Da Vinci was lucky man to have explored so many forms of knowledge.

songs and people part two

in kind of continuation to this the lastest list is: Santy-mamidi kommaku Rika- Suku-Hum hain seedhey saadey akshay akshay (actual any of the THAT era Akshay Songs) Veer-VaalukaLLa vayyari Chin-Kaisi paheli and Pyaar mahiya and Namak Isq Mmk-Woh lamhe and Mitwa

Naam

So Little Bro wants to change his surname only for one particular reason (My family,i'd like to think has been pretty cool about such stuff) Now,Little Bro's Sis and Mom disprove. So do i. But reasons for their disapproval and mine,are well i think different. I am dead superstitious. i) I wouldnt want a boy (in the family) to have either my mom's surname or my dad's surname (and yes they have different surname and as is the usual trend,we girls Big Sister and Me have my dad's surname). Now the reason being,i've seen how it goes with dad's surname and i hardly like any of the men in that family.For some reason or the other.I mean they are family and all,but that apart as people,no comments. ii)Mom had a terrible childhood and major pains in her life were caused by boys in the family with the surname.Even more,a death of a boy with the same surname is part of the family's dark history. With all the thoughts associated,i've always been happy i'm a ...

Pyaar Mango hee tumhi sey....

...na inkar karo (Song :Pyaar manga hai tumhi se...na inkar karo -Kishore Kumar) So while lunch today i suddenly realise I'm eating mavidikai pappu,avakai and mavidi pandu. (with rice of course,and yes curd too) Firstly people who arent familiar with combo eating, mavidikai pappu can be eaten even without the rice if made right. And avakai annam with mavidi pandu mukkalu,or mavidi rasam is Supeeer. Curd rice and mavidi pandu mukkalu/mavidi rasam.Yum yum. So that mango,mango and more mango. So folks,summer's here and so are mangoes! Yipee! Mamidi/Mavidi kaaya =Raw Mango Mamidi/Mavidi pandu =All the yellow mangoes,fruity ones. Avakai=Mango Pickle (andhra ishtyle) Mukkalu=Pieces Rasam=Juice
Roy's got a new bike. Red in colour. CBZ,second hand. Finally! Looks Good...will make him look ever better,and i get more lifts in B'lore now! heheheheh! Best part is the reason why he got it in the colour red. Considering he hates the colour. Thats why my dear Roy,we are friends.I am proud of you.Sehbaash/Saahbhaash (in telugu)

Sunday Thoughts

Sitting today(Sunday) at the table in Paradise It was so good to have them around, Anirvan (Now looking like a Roadie with a ponytail, beard and moustache ..along with more than twice the weight he had in college)with Piyali ,Vedanth with a weird haircut and (no comments about how they look as opposed to what they looked like in college) Punky Zee and this other chap called Kishore were there too.
