Love Breakups Zindagi:My Review



Ahhh....... How shall I start it.....Movie starts with a complete boring usual jokes of a story of two different guys. Stupid jokes, which will not at all make u laugh a single time. Then there is a marriage in which our both the heroes meet the heroines. Stupid jokes.......exceptionally hard try out by director to bring emotions in between which actually were not working much.......The two heroes fall in love with the heroines and then the director tries to create a unusual connect between them which is a bit unimaginary. Might be a catch for (stupidly) emotional people who still se love as a story and are not practical at all. Meanwhile the story tries to portray the problems of this young age relationships which are most of the times not working in todays' era. Director has tried to convey that there is someone loving and caring waiting for everyone in this world which seems like an utopian city story. Mix of feelings and emotions which director has failed to unveil properly. Over all it is a one time watch for emotional kind of people who still live in their own world of love where someone will come in their life to make them feel what Love actually is......! ! ! I think that even the director n producers were not sure of the thing that what they actually want to show.While I was watching the movie I was just thinking that how can someone be so stupid that he can make such an idiot movie but while the movie completes half of the time it picks up the pace a bit and has few touching emotional scenes which can make you sit atleast for the complete movie and it ends at a high node as all of our bollywood love stories with a happy ending.
If I have to rate it between 1 to 5....Then i will give it 2.....not more than that even if the director gives me a thousand bucks treat for that........He hee hee.......Can waste ur 2 n a half hrs if u r stilll an emotional fool......! ! ! ! !

There used to be a guy named Piyush living@hyderabad with his small Job and a loving and caring girl friend named Pooja. They had a long relationship with each other which had started during college life. Both of them Knew each other very well. They were very frank to each other and never hid anything about themselves from each other. Pooja was different from other girls. She was a very candid girl and had a lot of friends and this was the thing which always made Piyush a bit possessive. Pooja always knew it and even had tried to limit her friend's long list but it is a matter of time. She stopped making new friends from her college days only once she came to know about Piyush's Dilemma. She has always tried to proove Piyush that she only loves him and noone else. And Piyush also knew it but it was just that he got irritated when Pooja was spending her time with friends instead of being with him. Piyush also knew that it is not possible for any girl to stop talking to anyone else except him. But He was so immensely in love with Pooja that he always wanted her to be with him only and whenever she spent some of time with her friends and away from him, He got frustrated. But still both of them were happily spending their college lives.College came to an end. Both of them got different Jobs and started working in the same city. Pooja took an apartment which she was sharing with one of her friends. Piyush also took a flat. Both of them were quite happy and satisfied with their life except few small fights with each other occassionaly. Probably wherever there is even a bit of love between people, they quarell with each other. And then the whole lot of things start. Do not talk to each other for few hours. Do not give each other a single call till the time next person does not makes you a call. Even if they took their phones in their hands for hours waiting for each others call. And then after few irresistible hours,one of them makes a call and then says sorry even if the fault was of other person. That is how the relationship works. Both of them used to meet each other two three times and stayed at each others' place only so that they can spend more time with each other till the time they are not getting married. They used to make love to each other through out the night. Piyush used to love the hairs of Pooja a lot. He used to cuddle and carress her hairs through out the night taking her head in his arms. They used to kiss each other. They used to play with each other through out the night and made promises of always staying with each other through out the night. Pooja often asked Piyush that will he ever love him like this....??? For which Piyush used to reply by saying Nooo.............They were very much passionate about each other and were very open minded. They never stopped each other from doing anything except a few things. They were so convinced about each other that they were sure of getting married to each other some day. Not aware of the fact that....Future have got so many surprises to be unfolded for them.....They were sleeping in each others' arm after having a beautifull saturday night dinner outside and then late night bedroom fun on that sunday morning. When Pooja's phone rang at 7:00'o'clock........

Gaddafi: From Popular Hero to Isolated Dictator

Who Is Colonel Gaddafi?

Who Is Colonel Gaddafi?

Who Is Colonel Gaddafi?
Muammar Abu Minyar alGaddafi was born into a Bedouin family in the desert area of Sirte in Libya on 7 June 1942. He received a traditional religious primary education before attending a preparatory school in the town of Sebha where he became strongly influenced by the panArab nationalism being espoused by the Egyptian leader President Gemal AbdelNasser. During the Suez crisis of 1956 Gaddafi took part in antiIsraeli demonstrations staged in Sebha which led to his expulsion from the city. He moved to the coastal city of Misurata where he completed his secondary education whilst beginning to organise an underground revolutionary movement. His increasing radicalism led him to enrolling in the Military Academy at Benghazi in October 1963; in an indication of his future charisma as a leader he managed to persuade others from the underground movement to enroll in the Academy. In addition he also encouraged cadets already at the Academy to join him and the members of the underground in forming the central committee of the Free Unionist Officers in 1964. Around this time Gaddafi also enrolled in the University of Benghazi to complete his education by achieving a degree in history. On graduatig from the Military Academy he was appointed to the rank of lieutenant and assigned to the armys Signal Corps based at Gariunis on the outskirts of Benghazi. Whilst stationed there he continued to strengthen the power base of the movement the full network power and influence of which only he was completely aware of.
On 1 September 1969 he led a small group of officers in a bloody coup detat against the reigning King Idris I who was on medical retreat on a Greek resort at the time. Gaddafis rebels abolished the monarchy and established the new Libyan Arab Republic in which a Revolutionary Command Council ruled the country with Gaddafi as chairman. Rather curiously Gaddafi did not promote himself to general of the armed forces but rather accepted a ceremonial promotion from captain to colonel a rank which he has kept down to the present day. Gaddafi began to develop the mew regime along the lines of the Arab nationalism espoused by Nasser in Egypt. He labelled it as Islamic socialism in which the government controlled larger industry whilst permitting private control over smaller companies he also imposed a system of strict Islamic morals. Taking a leaf from Maos Little Red Book he outlined his vision his sagely view of the world and his universal wisdom in the originally titled Green Book which came in three mouthwatering volumes published between 1975 and 1979. In addition to his literary offering soon after coming to power he launched what he termed a cultural revolution in which he strove to eliminate all indications of western culture mainly focussing on the eradication of the two giant ideologies of capitalism and communism. He believed that once all vestiges of foreign culture were removed Libyans could build a harmonious and successful society based upon the pillars of Islam and home grown socialism.
Gaddafi stated to the Libyan population and to the wider world that he was creating a direct democracy governed by the people through local popular councils and communes but in reality the power lay solely with Gaddafi aided by a small band of trusted advisors. However Gaddafi insisted that he was implementing democracy in what he coined as Jamahiriya which could be loosely derived as power for the people by the people. But Libya is no exemplar of democracy civil liberties are basically nonexistent and opposition is simply not tolerated. Gaddafi took on the baton of panArabism from Nasser of Egypt espousing panArabism advocating a unity of all Arab states into one Arab nation. In addition Gaddafi was a supporter of panIslamism and advocated a loose union of all Islamic countries and people. In 1972 he proclaimed the Federation of Arab Republics which was to unite Libya Egypt and Syria but the three countries failed to settle on a specific agreement of how the union would work. A similar proposed merger between Libya and Tunisia failed and would gradually deteriorate into mutual animosity. With the concept of panArabism floundering Gaddafi compounded relations with his neighbouring states by invading Chad in 1973 resulting from a territorial dispute over the Aouzou Strip. Libya were to retain a presence n Chad until 1994. Gaddafis global relations were similarly not the most congenial his continued support of the Palestinian Liberation Organisation and calls for the destruction of Israel made him public enemy number one with many Western states most particularly the United States of America.
When Egypt signed peace agreements with Israel in 1979 Libya sought to ally itself closer with the Soviet Union but rather bizarrely even relations between these two remained fairly cool. Desperate for friends Gaddafi sought to spread Libyan influence in states with sizeable Islamic populations called for the creation of a Saharan Islamic state and supported antigovernment forces in subSaharan Africa. This latter policy rather bizarrely exploded to include almost anybody who requested Libyas support there appeared to be no rhyme or reason to Gaddafis foreign policy as groups with ideologies at polar opposites to Libya received help. It was almost like Libya were hellbent on complete anarchy willing to prop up anyone that was willing to cause disruption of course the result was that Libya became more and more isolated in world politics. In response to Libyas support of international terrorism the US State Department banned American citizens form travelling to Libya and placed an embargo on the importation of Libyan oil. Following suspicion of Libyan involvement in the bombing of a Berlin nightclub in 1986 which resulted in the deaths of US servicemen President Reagan ordered bombing raids on Libya. The raids included the bombing of Gaddafis residence which resulted in the death of his one year old daughter. Gaddafi however was far from bowed he was implicated in the bombing of a PanAm Flight over Scotland which resulted in the deaths of all onboard and eleven people on the ground. His refusal to allow the extradition of two Libyans who were accused of planting the bomb resulted in economic sanctions being placed on Libya for the entirety of the 1990s by the United Nations.
It took the intercession of South African President Nelson Mandela and UN Secretary Kofi Annan for Gaddafi to agree to a compromise he handed over the two suspects to the Netherlands to face trial under Scottish law. One of the men was acquitted but the other Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahis was convicted which subsequently led to Libya writing to the families of the victims and officially accepting responsibility and agreed to pay compensation of 2.7 billion to the families. As a result of this offer the United Nations lifted its economic sanctions on Libya. The apology marked the beginning of Gaddafis attempts to improve his standing in world politics following the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center he firmly denounced alQaeda. Many theories have being proffered as to the reasons behind Gaddafis sudden turnaround but probably the one that is most generally accepted is that it was born out of economic necessity. Sanctions had been crippling Libya and coupled with the drop in oil prices they forced Gaddafi to start building bridges with the West. However other realities most likely influenced his change in policy such as the complete failure of his earlier policies panArabism had failed panIslamism had failed the international armed groups Libya had supported had not benefited Libya in anyway and the Soviet Union had fallen apart. Simultaneously to his rapprochement with the West Gaddafi emerged as a prominent figure in African politics he is an influential figure in the African Union and is viewed by many on the continent as a humanitarian as he donates huge amounts of aid to subSaharan states. However his desire for control has reared its controversial head once again as rather than be magnanimous about his new role he has assigned the title of King of Kings of Africa upon himself which has rankled a few brows.
  

Muammar Gaddaffi Dead

           

Former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi died of wounds suffered on Thursday as fighters battling to complete an eight-month-old uprising against his rule overran his hometown Sirte, Libya's interim rulers said.
His killing, which came swiftly after his capture near Sirte, is the most dramatic single development in the Arab Spring revolts that have unseated rulers in Egypt and Tunisia and threatened the grip on power of the leaders of Syria and Yemen.
"He (Gaddafi) was also hit in his head," National Transitional Council official Abdel Majid Mlegta told Reuters. "There was a lot of firing against his group and he died."
Mlegta told Reuters earlier that Gaddafi, who was in his late 60s, was captured and wounded in both legs at dawn on Thursday as he tried to flee in a convoy which NATO warplanes attacked. He said he had been taken away by an ambulance.
      
There was no independent confirmation of his remarks.
An anti-Gaddafi fighter said Gaddafi had been found hiding in a hole in the ground and had said "Don't shoot, don't shoot" to the men who grabbed him.
His capture followed within minutes of the fall of Sirte, a development that extinguished the last significant resistance by forces loyal to the deposed leader.
The capture of Sirte and the death of Gaddafi means Libya's ruling NTC should now begin the task of forging a new democratic system which it had said it would get under way after the city, built as a showpiece for Gaddafi's rule, had fallen.
Gaddafi, wanted by the International Criminal Court on charges of ordering the killing of civilians, was toppled by rebel forces on August 23 after 42 years of one-man rule over the oil-producing North African state.
NTC fighters hoisted the red, black and green national flag above a large utilities building in the center of a newly-captured Sirte neighborhood and celebratory gunfire broke out among their ecstatic and relieved comrades.
Hundreds of NTC troops had surrounded the Mediterranean coastal town for weeks in a chaotic struggle that killed and wounded scores of the besieging forces and an unknown number of defenders.
NTC fighters said there were a large number of corpses inside the last redoubts of the Gaddafi troops. It was not immediately possible to verify that information.

   

Gaddaffi Dead....! !

Revolution 2020: Chetan BHagat's latest sizzler: My Review



And here comes the four continuous best seller writer's fifth book: Revolution 2020. Story is ornated with three main characters namely Aarti, Raghav and Gopal, who all live in the city of Death:Varansi or better known as Benaras. As always Chetan's protagonist in the novel is a guy who wants to achieve all the things in life including a girl named Aarti whom he knows from his childhood days. He has a friend too called Raghav who is extra-ordinarily gud in studies and has a paradox thinking about the society and wants to bring a revolution called R2020 to improve the society and remove corruption. The story revolves around the two guys, one of them clearing the most envied exam ie. JEE. The other one fails twice to clear it. Then he comes in touch with few powerfull politicians and decides to open one of his own Engineering colleges in Banaras. The story focuses on the level of corruption in which our system has already sunken to. How you have to grease everone's palm at every level of government offices to open a college is the main focus. The other guy however after completing his B.Tech from IT-BHU prefers to work as a journalist and tries to fight against the corrupts. How he rises, falls and then again rises with and without the help of others is shown beautifully by Chetan. Meanwhile there is this girl, Aarti who also is an important part of the story. How she loved one guy and then was attached to the other one and then again she goes to the earlier one. But the climax is really beautifull which is a bit unexpected and can spell bound you atleast in the last to know the end of the story. And that is why I would not be revealing it here or else you all will never read the novel. This time Chetan has not explored much about sex in his novel as he was earlier doing in all his earlier ventures. There is a scene or two but not for more than a half page or so. Probably he is done with it in his earlier novels and he is not left with anything new about sex.......Just kidding..! ! ! This time he has tried to connect emotionally with his readers. Overall It's a good time spend if you got six hours to kill in a row. How one becomes loser and then how he can bring an upside down to his loser side is what Chetan has shown in his Revolution 2020. Everyone has to do their bit and everyone has to sacrifice something to bring a change in society for Good is what he has tried to communicate to his readers. Let's Pray for his Revolution 2020. Amen
