my god! it's shankar jaikishan

As iam preparing to write an article about shankar jaikishan, one thought struck me most powerfully.

these days it has become a common thing for editors to ask writers to compress their entire article in to two pages. my editor also ordered the same. write about shankar jaikishan in two pages?

absurd!

how can any body write in two pages about these greatest music directors in two pages?

it is not only preposterous but also idiotic.

sj have created melodies that are still fresh in the minds of people. anyone who listens to them become instant fans of sj.

nowadays it has become a fashion to call rd burman a genius. but in my opinion if ever there was a genius in hindi film music it is one and only sj.

the way each song was sculpted with love and care is fascinating. you discover some thing new, and wonderful each time u hear the song. no other music director has created such a vast repertoire of melodious songs.

i have read many reviews where they deride sj and praise naushad, sdburman and rd burman. they put down the work of sj as populist sans quality.

it is alright if some one is a fan of a particular music director. but it is not necessaary to put down others to show the greatness of somebodys favourite.

iam planning to write a series of articles about hindi film songs soon. this is the beginning.

hope to meet u soon with melodies

my chocolate factory is open!

At last my chocolate factory is open. It is being thrown open to all from today. After long deliberation, i have decided to concentrate more on my english blog. Iam a prolific writer in my mother tongue telugu. Hence, all along my concentration was on writing my columns and filling my blog. Now, iam turning earnestly to writing in english. So, be prepared to receive my chocolates regularly. You must have guessed from the title of this blog that iam an avid reader of books. the title of the blog is inspired by Road Dahl's classic novel, charlie and the chocolate factory. So, my dear friends, like Dahl's wonderful chocolate factory, i shall try to churn out one wonderfully tasty chocolate post after the other.

so, seeing u regularly from tomorrow with variety of chocolattee fare........

chocolates are being readied

iam sorry that after initial promise of delicious chocolates i have completely ignored this blog. This was basically because i had to go to nanded on duty and also whenever i had time my concentration was entirely on my telugu blog. I have decided to change that and divide my time equally between both the blogs.

From now onwards i shall be posting regularly in this blog. I shall be posting on various topics ranging from silly to superb, asinine to astounding. So please be patient with me . chocolates are on the way..... it is only a matter of time, before u will have them.
