At Last

I discovered some details about Kunal Ganjawala today. It took some fairly mundane google searching but still. From my childhood, one ad that I really loved was the milk federation ad "Doodh Doodh". I loved the ad overall and the music. Then I grew older and really liked "O Humdum" from Saathiya. Also, Bheegay Honth. I guess you see where this is going. I never realised there was a connection till I found out that O Humdum was sung by Kunal Ganjawala. Since then I've been intrigued by Kunal Ganjawala and today discovered that he's sung some other songs that I really like. In short, I've liked his voice for a long time without knowing whose it is.

:) Finding out makes me feel really happy.

Relationships

No... this is not another post about my poor SO. Actually it's a post about a colleague/boss/friend of mine. I've known him for a few years and we're not incredibly close but have one good friend in common and enjoy each other's company. I guess it helps that I get along with his wife.

He has absolutely the most energy I know. He finds enough time to chat with all the people he works with closely so that they feel included in his world and happy. It's not like he's plotting to spend x amount of time with each person over a week but he manages it awesomely well. Beyond that, he manages to put enough effort into his relationship with his ex-girlfriend so that she never feels out of it. He practically calls her every day, he definitely calls when she's ill. It's quite awesome. I don't do that much for my friends, let alone ex-s. I personally am of the opinion that he married a girl who would suit him socially but not completely intellectually and he needs his ex in his life for that.

However, I am in awe of his ability to invest in relationships to such a huge degree.

Bright Bright Sunshiny Day!

The weather nowadays is awesome when it's sunny. Bright blue skies with cottony clouds and lovely sunshine. And it's officially winter so it's cool and pretty. I love my city :)

Life is looking up. Work isn't killing and SO and I are doing ok. Not as wonderfully well as I'd like but that's cause we're not in the same place. Still... I guess now it's his turn to sweat and take my tantrums ;)

I was wondering earlier how to make new male friends without seeming 'interested' in them. I already have several male friends and it's great fun hanging out with them. Recently I met another boy whom I'd like to get to know better but I was quite worried about sending him the wrong signals. Then yesterday SO needed some help so I sent out a mail to all my colleagues, including the new friend material boy asking for help for SO. I got a bit of grief for the funny part of it and got a bit of probing to see if I was telling people to back off but now it's all great :)

The only bad thing about yesterday and today is this slight nagging headache. It's hovering around and gets worse from time to time. I'm hoping it's lack of sleep and I can go home and pass out sometime today. Working life sucks in some ways. Somebody wants me to take a call late tonight. Not late like 11:00 p.m. but late in terms of the working day. I mean, my employer doesn't own me. I do have a life! I promise I do! ;)

Maahi Ve

Teri yaad aati hai re :)

Hindi Song Title: Maahive Teri Yaad Aati
Hindi Movie/Album Name: MANTRA
Singer(s): FAAKHIR

jaan hain kya dil cheez kya
main tera sab kutch tera
suna suna mera jeevan mere najdeek aa
maahive ho teri yaad aati hain re
o chandan si dhup mein o badli ki or se
maahive o teri yaad aati hain re
ek sundar pyar ka sapna laati hain re
maahive - 2


hosh ho na khabar ho
shab dhale na sehar ho
ek aaisa safar ho aur tum saath ho
raat jugnu siataarein , rang khusbu nazaarein
pyar ke ho ishaarein aur tum saath ho
suna suna mera jeevan mere najdeek aa
maahive ho teri yaad aati hain re
chandan si dhup mein o badli ki or se
maahive ho teri yaad aati hain re
o ek sundar pyar ka sapna laati hain re
maahive - 2

rooth jaane mein kya hain
maan jane mein kya hain
dil jalane mein kya hain, ab tum jaan lo
mukhtasar hain fasana main hu tera deewana
dil na mera dukhana ab tum jaan lo
suna suna mera jeevan mere najdeek aa
jaa hain kya dil cheej kya
main tera sab kutch tera
suno suno mera jeevan mere najdeek aa
maahive ho teri yaad aati hain re
o chandan si dhup mein o badli ki or se
maahive o teri yaad aati hain re
o ek sundar pyar ko sapna laati hain re
