#14: Dardura Special. Hail Darduras...!

Darduras are here... Darduras are there...
These Darduras are everywhere...!


First I need to explain what is Dardura? But the right question is who is Dardura? He/she is a kind of species of human being. You can say either is an alien that looks like human being. "Yatra dardura vaktarah, tatra maun hi shobhe chhe..." like of an ukti is there in Sanskrit. Which means when frogs are lecturing around you, better you keep silence. Hope now you have identified the Dardura as it's always there every next step of our life.


The pity is you can't do anything with these Darduras. They are either your relatives or your elders or the ones you ought to respect. No wonder they have never been to Junagadh yet they'll advise you how to climb Mount Everest. They'll keep interfering your life untill you really feel there's no life in your life. You are angry. You wanna kill them. You wanna eat them. But these darduras are eternal creatures. Nainam chhindati shashtrani, nainam dahati pavakah, na chainam kale dantyapo, na soshayati marut...


Don't hope that I'm going to write the solution how to face them. I'm writing this post just to decrease my frustration level that these darduras raised. They are always there in your every important decision of life to give their expert advise. (That you've never asked.) Though it's difficult to save yourself from these darduras yet I'm trying to give some ideas that government can apply in the public interest.


1. Just like dog-van there should be dardura-van too to catch them nd throw them out of the city.

2. Citypolice should be encouraged to try target practise on darduras. (Army can have influence too...!)

3. On Dashera, dardura-dahan can be suggested instead of Ravan-dahan. (Even better if done on real persons than statues...!)

4. Like the anti-terrorist squad, government can think for an anti-dardura squad too. (THINK word is used intentionally as govt is used to think only...! Socialists can go for an NGO...!)


More suggestions are welcomed though we all know we are helpless and can never win against the sarv-shaktiman Darduras. Hail Darduras. - DJ.

    For sure. But on the condition that you'll show IMDI to Nidhi first.

#10: Are we rational enough…?

After searching for a topic since long, last night when a message popped up on my cell screen, I decided to write on this. The message was something like… “This is a very rare message coming directly from Tirupati. Send this to at least 25 people and you will be blessed and your wish will come true within 48 hours.” It didn’t end here. “Don’t ignore this. One person didn’t send it and he lost one of his family members.” The pity is the sender was a friend of mine, an engineer (in real terms a techno-maniac) and a sensible person. I called him back and asked whether he believes in such nonsense. He replied NO but why to take chances. He was afraid of losing his family members. I didn’t raise any issue. Still I want a satisfying answer. Why it is so? Every day, while opening our inbox, we get these types of mails and in spite of knowing this nonsense, most of us forwards it. STOP DOING THIS BULLSHIT. Being religious is not a matter of concern, but sending such mails in hope of some ma...

#48: Notes on Filmmaking _ Introduction.

Hi folks. As promised ago, I’m starting here some notes on Filmmaking related things. We’ll begin with introduction & as it is the first one, I’ll keep it very basic and fundamental. We will move forward in detailed things one by one. So let’s begin. In earlier days, Films were used to be silent i.e. only visuals, no sound. Then came talkies and it gave a meaning to the scene. So a film became an audio-visual presentation. But not every audio-visual is a film. A footage of a street with all background voices/noises or a video of a birthday party has both audio and video but it is not a film. So how films differ from these? Well, a film should convey a story. If that street or that birthday party is having a character that portrays some part of a story and then that footage has become a part of the film. Cool, so more or less a story is needed to be told. Now the way you convey the story is what we call a screenplay. I.e. how will the scenes be played on the screen? (N...
