When I switch on the TV..I see a guy singing with tears in his eyes, heavy beard and wearing cap….when I change the channel..I see the same guy singing around the girls…when I switch to another channel, I see the same guy dancing with Emraan Hashmi, Dino Morea and Udita Goswami…

Car tapes are silent without his songs, parties are not complete without his dance tracks…

Talking about the Singer, Music Director Himesh Reshammiya….in his early days he used to look like some sad person with no tears on his face but now he looks more of serious but always with tears in his eyes..(I have no idea why he is shown in tears in most of his songs) but whatever it is, his songs are on lips of every youngster…

I am not saying this because his songs are being played all the time on TV..but I have noticed it all the time…couple of youngsters stay in my society..I always see them playing his songs (The new album)….I had gone to a party few days back…and the songs from the movie Aksar made everyone dance like anything…(Music was by him)….ofcourse there were other songs too but compared to other music directors more of his songs are being played everywhere…

I have never noticed any music director giving hits one after another…hats off to him….he will definitely become one of the India’s most wanted music directors. I take my words back after watching his recent new songs, the songs are very similar to his old songs, just minor changes in the tunes…if he is going to continue like this..then…I don’t see any chance of being on top….

As expected Sena goons have attacked the shops in Mumbai. According the report on Mid-Day, Shiv sainiks vandalized a shop in Lower Parel (Mumbai) that had built six foot heart made of flowers for auctioning, the money from the auction was to be given to Cancer Patient’s Aids Association. But the sainiks could not understand it and destroyed it.

The reason? Because it was meant for Valentine’s Day..according to them celebrating valentine’s day is commiting a crime..

Following is part of the report..

The incident sparked panic forcing shopkeepers to remove all Valentine’s Day-related decorations from their shops. Even big malls like Big Baazar and Crossroads in Tardeo have removed their decorations.

Sena sources said that more shops would be targeted today. “Our men have toured many areas of the city and we have identified a few shops, which we will target. However, the response from most shopkeepers has been encouraging as they have removed all traces of Valentine’s Day paraphernalia,” said a Sena worker.

Now this is what was planned and going to happen, every kid on the street knew that these guys are going to do these kind of things…so now the question is…What the hell our police was doing it? Sleeping? or waiting for them to attack? How will people run the shops? How do people earn money?

If police cannot do anything to stop the goons without guns; what will they do when terrorists will attack us? Will they watch the show like they have been doing?

This is democracy and why these guy want to do whatever they want, what is out government doing? What if tomorrow these guys don’t like anything and they force everyone to stop doing it?

I have been thinking of writing about this topic for so long but I was not getting proper base to write it. For quite sometime, everyone might have noticed non-news stuff being shown on the news channels…or say the news channels starving for higher TRP ratings. Whether it is a bad attempt to show “Indian Idol” contestants or a successful attempt to show “Bunty aur Babli” on news channel…Whether it is hidden footage on Tihar Jail or it is about special coverage on Mumbai rains…

Special coverage / shows help us with the information and specially the facts but news channels are using this tool to earn money rather than providing more information. Now, earning money is not at all wrong but the way these guys are approaching to earn money is not quite good.

Take today’s example, at 8 PM Aaj Tak was showing special show called Godfather showing Indian film stars and singers at Dawood’s party..(His brother’s party), the show was very good but they managed to stretch it for 2 hours…from beginning they were kept on repeating Bollywood’s biggest star of that time will be shown in the clip after this short break…but they showed it in the end i.e. approx 15 minutes before the show ended.

They were showing same things many times and just stretching the show with the help of ads and showing things which were not related…

Other example would be, some news channel promoting movie Bunty aur Babli, showing both the stars reading news and all…

These kind of things always make me think that, is there any good news channel around with more of news content then more of TRP increase attempts?

Watching the video clip on Aaj Tak, they are showing Anu Malik singing for Dawood (Along with Kumar Sanu and other singers)

Infact Anu Malik wrote special song for Dawood and song had lyrics like “Sabka Bhai Dawood Bhai….”

The clip was around 15-16 year old but the way these guys were singing for him (Specially Anu Malik), it was looking as if they loved Dawood more than anyone else…

Just too disgusting….

Aaj Tak is going to show some more stuff on this in the series called Godfather at 8 PM IST (on Sat and Sun)
