गोष्ट छोटी डोंगराएवढी ........

       

      

      शुक्रवार म्हणजे रात्रीची वेळ आपलीच कारण शनिवार सुट्टी.. मी ठरवल की आज मराठी चित्रपट बघायचा. "गोष्ट छोटी डोंगराएवढी" बरच ऐकले होते या चित्रपटाबद्दल, शेवटी बघायचा ठरवल. 

     चित्रपट तसा सुरू झला तेव्हा मला वाटले अजुन एक मकरंद चा कॉमेडीपट ..परंतु जशी जशी कहाणी पुढे जाउ लागली तसा चित्रपटाचा आशय कळू लागला. खरच समाजातील एका महत्वाच्या मुद्द्याला दिग्दर्शकाने हात घातला आहे. वर्तमानपत्रांसाठी आणि न्यूज़ चॅनेल्स साठी कदाचित "शेतकर्यांच्या आत्महत्या" ही एक पहिल्या पानावरची बातमी किवा ब्रेकिंग न्यूज़ असेल परंतु त्यांच्या कुटुंबांची झालेली अवहेलना आणि त्रास कदाचित कोणीच समजून घेतला नाही. भारतासारख्या शेती प्रधान देशात असे काही व्हावे हे नवलच. भारताला महासत्ता करू इच्छिनार्‍या राजकारण्याना कोन समजावणार की "अन्न पाणी आणि निवारा" यामधील अन्नाची गरज जोपर्यंत शेतकरी भगवताहेत तोपर्यंतच हे स्वप्ना शक्य आहे आणि त्यामुळे ही आपली व समाजाची नैतिक जबाबदारी आहे की आपण शेतकर्यांच्या प्रश्नाला मुळापासून सोडवण्यासाठी प्रयत्न केले पाहिजे. कदाचित मी हे बोलून छोट्या तोंडी मोठा घास घेण्याचा प्रयत्न करत असेन, परंतु मला विश्वास आहे की देशातील सर्व स्तरातील लोक जेव्हा ह्या समस्येला आपली समस्या समजून सोडवण्याचा प्रयत्न करतील, आपले शेतकरी बांधव नक्कीच ह्या विवंचनेतून मुक्त होतील.

    चित्रपटाचा शेवट मला थोडा काल्पनिक वाटला, आणि एखाद्या नेत्याला वेठीस धरून सोडवण्यासारखी ही समस्या तेवढी सोपी नाही. यासाठी शासकीय तसेच सामाजिक पातळीवरून आर्थिक तसेच सामाजिक शिक्षणाची मदत गेली पाहिजे. शेतकरी बांधवांना मूळ प्रवाहापासून वेगळे ना होऊ देता त्यांनाही आपण सोबत नेले पाहिजे. शेतकर्यांच्या प्रगतीतूनच आपण भारताच्या प्रगतीचे स्वप्न पाहु शकतो.

Visit to Zoological Park - Katraj

Today Morning Pavan called me and asked if we can visit to Katraj Zoological Park, and I agreed immediately. We reached there around 1.00 PM. We purchased entry tickets Rs. 10/- per head. To mention the tickets for foreigners were Rs. 25/- per head. The park is truly amazing, and I am wondering how we have not yet visited it as we are residing only 2Km from it. The Park is well maintained and documented. At each corner there are guide plates available which gives enough information about the different animals. There is nice lake there, and we done boating for a while. The park is equipped with all basic facilities and canteen. The park is too big to cover everything in some hours; ideally we can plan it for whole day. Additional Battery operated vehicles are available with additional payment, which drives us through ought the park.



The Park is worth visiting. I have some good snaps taken there; please follow below link for the same.

What is mean by being Independent?

15th August, Time around 8.00 PM., Place: Near Swargate.

There was a signal near Laxminarayan, and traffic got blocked for some minutes. The walking people are using the foot path, and suddenly a person with no patience moved his bike on foot path, to go ahead than others. He lost his control and hit a man around age 45. The man had injury on his right leg. Luckily the man had not hit much. The person with bike is not even having any sorry for the situation and shouted on the old man saying "साइड ला चालता येत नाही का? आता वय झालाय, संध्याकाळी घरी बसाव चुपचाप."..........

15th August, Time around 5.30 PM., Place: Parivartan Bus on Mumbai - Pune highway.

The bus was almost pack with very few sits vacant at different places. When CBD Belapur came 6-7 person are rushed for Bus and asking if the Seats are vacant. Conductor said, please come I will manage for all of you, just leave the number 3 & 4 sear as they are reserved from Panvel. The Conductor was a old man, seems reaching his 50. He slowly asked all those passengers about whether they are alone or in couple or group. and then requested different people who accommodated single seats. He adjusted almost everyone except a guy. Then he asked that guy if he wants to seat in cabin, else I will arrange your seat in other bus at Panvel station. But the guy agreed. I have never seen such responsible conductor in my life.

When I thought on both of these situations at night, my question is "What is mean by being independent?", Is that mean do whatever you think, do whatever you want, say whatever you likes? Or "Being responsible"?

Really its time for us to think on this............

Surprise

After lot effort he grabbed the PMT for Balewadi. This Bus is always packed and has as many people as a train compartment can accommodate.  He is having a sky blue jeans with a nice t-Shirt typed on front as "No Firewall". But as usual he seem to be aware of Swine flu and hence masked with handkerchief. His haircut is almost matching to a Hollywood actor. With all his extra tricks and skills he managed to get the ticket and a small place to stand. As the rush is increasing stop by stop, now the noise and jostle started. In all that jostle a elder man kept hand on his shoulder and asked which college he goes and lot of such enthusiastic questions. How he responded through his masked face and how the elder person heard those answer is question. Soon more rush is added to make life worst. With this situation, mistakenly he jostled a women. The women got angry and started to swear all "Male" kind. "All men’s always search for chance and purposefully jostles women. She even asked if he is not having any women’s at home so that he should have sense of manners and behavior. Now the situation become hot. Everybody in bus started to watch that poor boy. The women was not shown any sign of stopping the obscenity. And finally the boy lost his patience and removed the mask and cried loudly

                       "Hey stupid women, I am a girl not Boy"

And her sound made quiescent in bus.

Give me some sunshine.......

Our life is full of experiences of problems, tensions, tragedy, happiness and fun. In all stages of life we always look forward to move on as the further step always seems to have more power and privileges. Consider an example of a kid in 4th standard who always feel very partial of his elder brother as he has more luxury of roaming around and has mobile and bike. Whereas the same elder brother might feel that his father has all decision making power and everybody listens him. Even a school going student always thinks of going college as early as possible to enjoy the college life but when he joins college he thinks of getting good job and so on. The ultimate expectations and satisfactions will never be achieved, but still that makes us to move on in our life. While chasing all these goals and expectations, we really forget to enjoy our life. As time never stops nor gives us chance of going back (until you are watching Time Machine movie in dreams), we need to think more on our present than future.

Even in my case, I really forget to taste the life..enjoy it to fullest...and now I had spent almost 2/3 of my life in just chasing the goal and my desires. I am still far from my goals and my desires will never be accomplished...but what now I am loosing is my present.. .what I am going to miss is the all fun I can have if decided... what I am going to regret about is the sunshine in my cloudy life ..... But No....I should stop .... we have the life once.... I have to enjoy it and make it fun... I should not forget that I am born to Live....I  should not go the way life takes me...but I should take the life the way I go...being intelligent and smart we are not going to do this.. for this we must be in Idiot out of those 3 idiots... I am really starving for that sunshine..

Give me some sunshine
Give me some rain
Give me another chance
I wanna grow up once again

बिन तेरे..........

काल पावसात भिजताना तुझी आठवण आली, आणि माझ्या वर्तमान काळाने भविष्यात जाणे नाकारले. प्रेम काय असते हे तूच मला शिकवले .. किंबहुना प्रेम हे तुझ्यापेक्षा काही वेगळे आहे हे मी विसरलोच होतो. शून्य झालो होतो तू मिळण्या आधी मी, पण मला पुर्नत्व दिले तू.  शुन्याला काहीच किंमत नसते जोपर्यन्त त्याच्या आधी काही आकडा नसतो ... माझ्यासाठी तो आकडा म्हणजे तू होतीस.  जीवनाची आशा आणि दिशा तूच होती माझ्यासाठी ... तू सोबत असतांना एवरेस्ट ही पदक्रांत करेन असा विश्वास होता.. आणि तू साथ दिली तर काहीही करून दाखवीन ही हमी दिली होती मी तुला.. तुही दाखवले अनेक स्वप्न मला.. तूच दिला होता आधार मला.. वाटल सर्व बदलेल .... सुखाचे दरवाजे उघडतील ... जे नाही झाले आतापर्यंत ते सर्व होईल... आनंद आपल्या पायाशी असेन.........
परंतु नियतीला हे मंजूर नव्हते.. मी तुला दगा दिला की तू मला की मग कोणीतरी आपल्याला दगा दिला हा प्रश्न आता गौन आहे.... दुख आणि फक्त दुख हेच जीवनात उरले आहे.. तू जिथेही असशील सुखी राहा हीच या तुटलेल्या हृदयाची इच्छा आहे .. प्रेम म्हणजे फक्त मिळवणे नाही तर प्रेम म्हणजे देणे हीच जीवनाची सत्यता आहे...
आज मी एकटा बसून जेव्हा भूतकालाकडे बघतो तेव्हा सोबतीला माझ्या फक्त अश्रू आहेत. विसरन तुला अशक्य म्हणून तुला न आठवायच आज मी ठरवल आहे... प्रेमा पोटी या मी माझेच सर्वस्व हरवले आहे..
कुणाला दोष देऊ मी माझया एकटेपणाचा हा विचार आज मी करत आहे आणि भुपिंदर ची गझल ऐकत आहे

तेरे जहाँ में ऐसा नहीं कि प्यार न हो
जहाँ उम्मीद हो इसकी, वहाँ नहीं मिलता
कभी किसी को मुकम्मल जहाँ नहीं मिलता
कहीं ज़मीन तो कहीं आसमान नहीं मिलता

मी सर्व विसरून कितीही पुढे गेलो आणि हवे ते सर्व काही मिळवले तरीही.....

बिन तेरे बिन तेरे बिन तेरे......कोई खलिश हे हवानओ मे बिन तेरे... कोई खलिश हे हवानओ मे बिन तेरे........

Royal Pain

We cannot compare the pain of being alone with anything.. it’s the worst thing one need to face in lifetime. Sometimes you might have everything to you viz. money, luxury, freedom and piece .. I can say you are living a royal life but .. if you are alone, you are screwed up. The pain you face in this situation is a royal pain. I always had a overconfident that I don’t need anybody with me, I can survive alone, I don’t care about the damn world… but I am wrong. 2009 taught me all those lessons that my friends were trying to tell me from last couple of years. I do remember the situation, where I had everything to live a good life.. but I am crying that time and remembering my old days which are very painful but though they never lead me to cry. I remembered the song that time

दिल से तनहाई का दर्द जीता

क्या काहे हम पे क्या क्या न बीता

तुम न आये, मगर जो गये..

हाये हम क्या से क्या हो गये...

सारे सपने कही खो गये 

हाये हम क्या से क्या हो गये...

The lesson I learnt from this is all we need to live a better life is “Relations”… that’s it
