Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017
let me make a bold claim. the days of installing/grooming etc of a leader are over. to have credibility in asking for a mandate from voting public, you first need to build that credibility within own party. that sort of credibility does not come from grooming. it is earned by putting in the hard wo...
Re: Cricket
The GREAT Sanjay Manjrekar was vomiting in the commentary box of how embarrassing the whole situation (air quality non-issue) is to the whole city, to BCCI and to the whole country as whole. How it is such a let down to India's image internationally..blah blah blah...These guys in their desperation ...

Re: Love & Marriage Nukkad
^^ KJo, life is like that. The most important thing is that you do what seems like the right thing to do. I stopped worrying about anybody else's opinion a long time ago. If they control my life, i.e. have the power to affect my ability to put bread on my table then yes, their opinion about me and ...

Re: Books Discussion Thread
I finished Vanamali's 'Complete life of Krishna' and Ray's 'Yajnaseni'. Both award winning novels and look at the Mahabharat era from different character viewpoints. Yajnaseni is a must read for every man to understand the true power and sacrifice a woman is capable of. My respect for Draupadi grew ...

Re: Love & Marriage Nukkad
OT: When the spiritual quotient is high and the lust for the nari pacifies the individual is the king of the world...until he falls again. Thats the whole circle of Maya. Even Kabira has said lust is the last frontier for a man to conquer, once he conquers it...he becomes bhishma (greatness personif...

Re: Indian Movies Thread
There was controversy in Mah even around Bajirao Mastani. The Maharashtrians had protested that he has shown the movie more from a romantic angle, well nothing wrong in that knowing what bollywood has offered over the years, but the main point of protest was the way the royal ladies were shown gyrat...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017
Kabir, I am not a historian, much less an expert on Rajput history, but those who have seen the film including dorknob actually say the movie praises Rajput valor. I thought initially SLB was showing some romance between an invading Islamic barbarian and Padhmavathi, and thats what p!ssed a lot of ...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017
The main question here is not about fiction or non fiction but about using the story of a muslim invader wanting to conquer a Hindu Kshatriya queen. If Padmini was a muslim, SLB would have never even imagined making a film on her. Portraying Padmini's sacrifice and defiance against islamic tyranny a...

What is a Rumala Sahib? This is stupidity as a piece of cloth is not SACRED as per Guru Granth Sahib ji!! Read SGGS an...
Re: Cricket
Of course, what Agarkar and VVSL didn't say is who should replace Dhoni. This question will arise when every great player is close to retirement age, there can never be perfect replacements. The new guns have to thrown at the deep end to prove their worth, they may miss some, India may loose a few ...
Re: Cricket
This kind of argument would have suited the 80's and 90s but not for the Indian team of today where every game played is a game won. I have not seen international players change their core style of playing just because they got older apart from Indian cricketers, except may be fast bowlers who want ...

Re: Hindu Sikh Relations in India and Abroad
I think like the Ramayana and Mahabharatha TV serials there should be one on Sikhism. This should have the biggest impact in reaching masses in understanding and removing any misconceptions. +10 That is a great suggestion indeed. Very little is known in the mainstream about origins and core philoso...
Re: Cricket
Those whining about Dhoni's performance including me have to answer one key question. Who will replace Dhoni? No easy answers to that. But on balance I'd say Dhoni does look very fit and agile, and that in and of itself is an asset. But that said, I re-iterate his batting has been woeful. He is sim...

Re: Hindu Sikh Relations in India and Abroad
1. Sikhism doesnt have caste system like hinduism and treats all humans equal and hence superior to hinduism or sanatan dharma Then why do the Sikhs have Jats, Khatris, Ramgarhia and Ramdasia castes and they don't marry among each other? Did you tell them that Hinduism also does not have a caste sy...

Re: Hindu Sikh Relations in India and Abroad
The problem is encore and I will try to explain why in my limited capacity. Problem is the difference between the modern Sikh ideology and that of its founding fathers. Many Sikhs today have started believing that Sikhism is an organised religion like chrislam just because it has the 'book'. This ha...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017
Let’s face it. Indians and India loves documentation and bureaucracy. actually what 'Indians' love are broadbrushing categorizations, least amount of criticial analysis and that which allow them to nurse their pet theories and their lop sided view on the world and people at large. My own pet theory...

In fact you can pick up a free sim at your grocery store and start making calls. I never understood the “national security “ issue ...
