You need comfort, you need the love and me to be near to clasp you tightly. You will not talk, and will turn moody, you making faces.. for the unknown reasons known just to you. And then that touch of  yours make me feel, how meaningful am here to someone, who wants to cuddle me, care and love me without any reasons maybe it is... the dichotomy of love - Harish Benjwal

Jugalbandi : Phoolon ke Rang Se....    https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=460342600643408 I t was just a meet and the company of a guitar, i along with Manish Nailwal started singing casually and strumming. and later realized the 'Jugalbandi' went very good....maybe coke studio in wait! :) the song lyrics are : फूलों के रंग से, दिल की कलम से, तुझ को लिखी रोज पाती कैसे बताऊँ किस किस तरह से, पल पल मुझे तू सताती तेरे ही सपने लेकर के सोया, तेरे ही यादों में जागा तेरे ख्यालों में उलझा रहा यूं जैसे के माला में धागा बादल बिजली चन्दन पानी, जैसा अपना प्यार लेना होगा जनम हमे कई कई बार इतना मदिर, इतना मधुर तेरा मेरा प्यार लेना होगा जनम हमे कई कई बार साँसों की सरगम धड़कन की वीणा, सपनों की गीतांजली तू मन की गली में महके जो हरदम ऐसी जूही की कली तू छोटा सफ़र हो, लंबा सफ़र हो, सूनी डगर हो या मेला याद तू आये, मन हो जाए, भीड़ के बीच अकेला बादल बिजली चन्दन पानी, जैसा अपना प्यार.. .. लेना होगा जनम हमे कई कई बार (Hindi lyrics courtesy : http://geetmanjusha.com/ ...

It was just because of the ‘Necessity’ that I purchased the zero-emission bicycle. It was after 14 years I rode a cycle. People progress from bicycle to motorcycle and to car and so. And here I was feeling proud of this cycle. Why shouldn’t I? After all am contributing a bit towards the environment by riding a noise free, maintenance free, and fuel free bike. What you think? Well, that is a bit of boasting and some consoling of heart at the same time. Kya motorcycle milti to main wo na leta? Hai na? ajeeb baat karta hai. Yes, I would have purchased a bike. But then that didn’t make sense to me. Neither I had an urgent need (Necessity, remember?) for present. Emergency was a different aspect. I purchased the cycle for several good purposes: to go to-and-fro to the nearby market, post office, bank, to meet neighborhood frie...

And I was never interested in big heavy words like DOS, Commands, Word, Office, Paint blah blah. Common yaar! They are stagnant things. Just like dictionaries. Those concepts were never interesting, just a pain to even look at them. Look at the Internet always buzzing, happening. There was Lot of stuffs for everyone. But use of Internet was banned for us in the school. And many of us used to get caught by the teacher for accessing it. And then the stern look of the teacher, as there exist no such word called CURIOSITY. We used mellow down like a helpless lamb. So this was how the Internet world remained an area of curiosity for me. Then I got a simple Nokia mobile phone with facility of GPRS. Now what was this GPRS I didn’t know at first, then I opened the manual and there I found that it was something related to th...
