Aal is well !!

Last weekend, I saw 3 idiots.

Aamir as a carefree teenaged student is just so adorable !! And his 'Aal is well' worked so well in the movie, it almost revived a dead baby. Remember, the new born doesnt cry, everyone is so upset, and then Sharman says 'Aal is well', and the baby kicks for the first time. Then all his college mates scream 'Aal is well', Kareena Kapoor says it too, and the baby starts screaming its lungs out and kicking his arms and legs... Watta beautiful scene that was !!

Today Sensex shedded a good 450 pts. Heyyyyy, you guys thinking... Whats the connection dodo? Why the hell are you talking about sensex here, right? Well, read on...

This noon at 12.11 pm, when Sensex was 300 pts down, I recd a msg saying "Sensex -300 relax people, say 'aal is well'. Ahhhh, yes. I said it, Aamir said it works and he is the "hero". I uttered 'Aal is well' and my fear was gone. I was feeling much better. Calm, relaxed, breathing safe !!

At 1.18 pm, another msg came in "Sensex -400 keep saying 'all is well'".........

All day I kept saying 'Aal is well', the baby (Sensex) never revived... At EOD, my trading account is screaming.... 'Aal gone in the well' !!!

अरुणोदय

सुप्तावस्था को लेकर विभावरी तमिस्रा दूर हुई ।
नवीन जागरण का सन्देश लेकर व्योम में मिहिर का प्रवेश हुआ ॥

जागो जागो देखो सुप्रभात की स्वर्णिम किरणेँ छाई ।
सागर में नील लहरों ने भी ली अंगड़ाई ॥

अवनि में उदक वेग तेज हुआ ।
प्रभंजन वेग भी तेज हुआ ॥

इस माधुर्यमय दृश्य को देखकर, दिल मोद से प्रफुल्लित हुआ ॥
