The Festival Of Lights.....


Happy Diwali......The festival Of Lights is back again and i am off to my "mamar bari"...The grand celebration of the festival there with all family and friends is really an integral part of my life...The preparations have already started and the fun is yet to begin..With India Pakistan match providing the an auspicious introduction to festivity we can all expect some bedazzling display of crackers and diyas.....
The true sense of the festival lies not in the display of power and authority but also in the ability to light up the hearts of nears and dear ones....its farewell to the awaited "debi pokkho" and the beggining of "Pitri Pokkho " from Saturday.......
Next year I will be in 12...The career demons will be over looking my destiny but I still profess that may all be fine and "Asche bochor Abaar Hobe".......

Happy Diwali to u too!:-D
Diwali for me has always been the time of crackers. And, this time, the fun will be additional because I'll be attending the Bhai phonta family gathering, that too, for the first time!
Hope you have a blast!

Beche Thakar Gaan

A Different Feel by Osibek Pal on Thursday, March 31, 2011 at 2:50pm  To, Manimanjari Sengupta THIS IS NOT A TRANSLATION OR AN INTERPRETATION OF THE SONG, ITS THE ENGLISH VERSION , OF " BECHE THAKAR GAAN" ORIGINAL VERSION BY ANUPAM ROY, WRITTEN IN THE SAME THEME, HOWEVER THERE ARE SOME OBVIOUS DIFFERENCES IN THOUGHT, FOR THE SAKE OF RHYME SCHEME, LET ME KNOW HOW YOU LIKE THIS VERSION...   Force me to forget a paintbrush..  And learn just light and dark..   Remember ,I wont comply...  Wont Pragmatise life, if you ask...     Banish me from your life's tell tale...  I wouldn't complain.... But ask me to justify my love...   I wouldn't , not if I am slain..     Cause, I have seen it all, known it all...  Quick sand, is not just for the beaches...  It has drained life, breath, blood and love,  let alone petty riches..     Cause, I have seen it all, known it all, ti...

Its All Coming Back To Me

They say that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Now some purist might just pounce upon me and question why or how dare i refer " Sir Isaac Newton" as a relative pronoun. But the point is, its not physics that I am talking about . Rather the matter that intrigues me is the fact that how come life gives a chance to everyone to get even. Yes call it destiny, or misfortune for some, but the gains made by one is always at someone else's expense. Success is fleeting. Status is even more vague. For these never lasts just as long as you would like them to be. Its a easier up-shift rather than climbing down the stairs in society , but when you are sometimes pushed up, its inevitable that you would surely be grounded sooner or later. The facts that have inspired me, ranges far in the plains of Africa. I saw a Pride Of Lions on discovery. A Pride of Three lionesses , A Lion and their bunch of six month old cubs.
