Temporary World Cup Finals for India

Today, is a very different day in India. All those people who are in office quite late in night would be running home early. Mom's in houses are heard saying " aaj me jevan ghari banavanar nahi, baherun magva kahitari" ( I am not going to cook at home today, order something from outside).
Everyone is already thinking which would be the most strategic seat in the house today. The discussions have been going on since Morning. Number Crunching, Chips munching, discussions, prayers.....
Well?? what the hell is wrong with that day today??

Today is India-Sri Lanka Cricket match. I know your next question, 'is it the finals?', no its not. Then why the hype? India has to win the match so as to qualify for super 8 (the next stage) or else India is back to pavilion.

I have been asking people, "Kya lagta hai, India Jeetega kya aaj?" and answers
"Sawaaal" ( now this is typical Mumbai lingo meaning 'definitely, no doubt')
"Obvisouly yaar"
"jeetega, bet?"
"chod na yaar who cares" and for this one I was like "what you mean WHO CARES", "who cares yaar i know we are gonna loose"..hmmmm thats more like an Indian...we have to have a opinion about cricket.

Everyone is praying that India wins today. The "they deserve to come back..." sentiment after the Bangladesh defeat has changed to "please please please...do something....WIN!!!"
Here is something which i came across...

Sehwag ki maa ko bulao,
Sachin ko Pepsi pilao,
Ganguly ko Chawanprash khilao,
Dhoni ke baalo mein Gel lagao,
Dravid ko castorl pilao




Everyone is charged up for the occassion, just to quite, we (@ our place) have already planned to buy about 400 grm of different types of chips, selected one of the cola brand (2x2ltrs) as the official drink of the day...

तर थोडक्यात काय, सगळे full to तयार अहेत, Set Max ने नांदी ५ वाजतच चालू केली अहे....आता फ़क्त WAIT AND WATCH...!!!

Sha Bang....

Its always been a an Hindu tradition to start anything new with "Shree Ganeshaya Namaha" meaning, my offerings to Lord Ganapati, the good of wisdom, God of Education.

Well...I thought let me start my blogs with a different note. Let me also start it with another auspicious note..."Sha-Bang"

Well I know most of the people wont know what this is and most of you will guess it to be some Chinese saying. But its not.

Sha-Bang means #!, this is how any script in unix is started.
So here i start with an SHA-BANG.....
