Taare Zameen Par...

And the award for most sensible movie for year goes to...Taare Zameen Par...

A very thought provoking movie which took Hindi cinema to another level.Once again Ameer Khan came out as The King. He proved that good movies can be made without superstars...giving very little lights to himself, and the entire space to the new kid Darsheel, who came out as quite a star. And yes how can we forget Mr. Prasoon Joshi for his amazing lyrics again..after Rang De Basanti...he is really good at writing emotions in the same manner we feel but are never able to express. The song MAA left all girls crying in the theatre and I downloaded the same as soon as I came back.
Dear Bollywood, plz make some more movies like this!!!

Procrastination...

Well, the good old procrastination effect...I know I have to finish the "settle hona hai" thing but it really becomes difficult for me to complete the "to be contd.." aspects. It is not only about the posts but other good things of LIFE as well. I believe in either finishing the subject or not starting at all and whenever I leave things in between (thats rare..rarer than platinum ;), it takes real good time to complete them or sometimes they hang in "shunya".

!!!...PMI...!!!

We were asked to do the PMI some days back after a review meet in Bangalore. Found it interesting..so here comes my perspective of the PMI's being a Wealth Advisor. For the information of common man PMI is Plus, Minus and Interesting of the work profile (here Wealth Advisor in ICICI Bank).

P (Plus):

1. I get to talk a lot..sense or non sense...but i love talking...
2. I meet some really good, high profile, learned and rich people...its actually is a great learning experience...sometimes I do discuss things other than business...for the sake of understanding and learning things from their experience.
   
3. I enjoy tracking capital markets.
4. I like the idea of advising...

M (Minus) :

1. Can't advise on direct equity...a complaince issue...but it would have been great if this was allowed.
2. Can't take off whenever I want...reason..am morally responsible for the hard earned money I have invested.

I (Interesting) :

1. I get to talk a lot..sense or non sense...but i love talking...(this is not repetition..i thinks its a P as well as an I)
   
2. Was a complete marketing person, but now have developed interest in financial markets.
3. Have learned how to tackle goof ups...done by me or somebody else...he he he
4. I get a chance to analyze behavior of different sets of people and the stimulus-response dynamics.

Settle hona hai yaar!!!!

Have worked for one and a half years now and the BIG question has come to my mind...settle hona hai yaar!!! Everyone is some or other day haunted by this question!!!Now this settlement has various aspects which need to be seriously addressed and I am again putting my bullet point version of those for the betterment of human race...

1. Getting Married : Now this is the most crucial aspect as the stimulus never comes from your innerself. The stimulus is generated copiously somewhere around you and is thrown at your face. Its a recurring event n will calm down only after you tie the knot.
2. Job shift : Another thing that comes to picture when one talks about settlement. He/She is hell lot frustrated with the present job and wants a deperate shift.
3. Location change : It has two sub options:
1. From hometown to a so called better place for career growth. (coz people want independence and they get bored of coming early home coz somevody is waiting there for them...well don't give me those looks..its the truth!!!)
   
2. From some metro to hometown.(coz everybody at office is talking about home and one feels that is the best place to be and when you are there, refer to sub point 1 of main point 3)

Some more is to come...have to cook dinner...so...to be continued....
