The Insanity called 'Rahul dulhaniya le jayega'





Wow. Okay for people who don't know. This is like a swayamvar of a guy called 'Rahul Mahajan'.
I'd like to give a little history at this point. Rahul Mahajan came into news when his politician father PramodMahajan was shot by his brother Pravin Mahajan. And then he came on a reality show called 'Big Boss' where he very very openly flirted with 'Payal Rohatgi' (Sorry, but I would call her a B Grade Actress) and 'Monica Bedi' (once actress and most famous because of the Abu Salem Case). Well I don't know what Rahul did after the Big Boss show because as they say, out of sight is out of mind. Then Rahul came back to the Indian Television Scene in his own show called 'Rahul dulhaniya le jayega'.

This show would help Rahul select his future wife and the show had a series of tasks and dates to help him decide who would be the lucky girl who would become is life partner. Well I didn't really follow this show but I know that the show has been quite a rage - my best friend and her mom bond over this show, my grandmother gets updates about this show by reading the Gujarati Newspaper(and I don't know about this till today!!!!!), my neighbor is crazily in live with the show. Come to think of it, I think I missed all the action and I write this blog entry watching the finale on TV as I type.

When Rahul was asked to describe what kind of wife he wanted, this is what he says.
"I want a bride who is mentally strong and intelligent. She should be soft hearted and be able to walk with me
through all my life.Elaborating further on the qualities he conversed, She should be able to handle the situation and respect my people too. Last but not the least she should be tall enough (grins)."

Yes I know this would be a typical description given by anyone if they are asked about how they would want their future partners would be. Reading this description actually made me think. Rahul has only said what he wants of the girl, how she should be able to walk with him for the rest of HIS life. Dude, what about hers?
Sometimes, well most of the times when we are asked to describe our dream boy/girl, we also tend to say things like he has to be like this and do blah for me and be with me thru all the blah I do all my life. Very rarely do we say I want someone who I can love and be with for the rest of my life. Okay, I'm getting off track.

And and and Rahul just choose Dimpy. And i typical Rahul style after he puy the garland on Dimpy, he laughed. His typical(eha eha eha and more eha eha eha). And they exchanged vows and rings. And now they are gonna get married on National Television. I kinda have some work, so I'm gonna slighta miss the wedding now and catch the repeat later. :P

What I want to know now is, this is reality or is this just plain old TV entertainment? I just hope its all scripted beacuse if it was not, I feel really bad for the two other Dulhans(brides) who got shortlisted and had to go back home in all their dulhan attire. I mean it must really pain to come so close and lose. And this brings me
to one more question as to how people agree to be part of shows like these. I mean that guy is like 35, was
involved in a drug case, divorcee, does nothing with his life and has publicly tried to woo two women in the
same reality show(big boss). I would never go on for a show like that. I am no one to judge those girls who are on the show today, I'm sure they're all great, so no offence intended.

So if the show is just plain old TV entertainment, hats off to the Rahul team, there are lots of people who got
entertained and engrossed and it became like an household name.
If it is reality then, what can I say. Love makes people do crazy things. :)

So here's wishing Rahul and Dimpy a lifetime of happiness. (Hope the end of your show does not end up like theRahki Ka Swayamwar end)

PS: Since I mentioned Rahki, do you know about the show called 'Pati Patni aur Woh'?? What was that all about??!!Reality TV I tell you.

The world has become a smaller place to live in....Or has it?

Okay, first of all i'm uploading this from my phone so it'll have a ton of mistakes so please excuse them. :)

I've read in a lot of places that the world has become a really small place to live in. I mean everyone is so connected, yea a lot because of the rapid advancement in technology. I mean social networking sites are being thronged by zillons of people. The call rates have dropped drastically from what they were. Its like so easy to talk to someone even in antartica today. You can still be the best of friends with someone who you don't meet for years together. Yea and thats because there is a way to connect, and more importantly everyone has access to this way of connection.

But what my question really is that with this kind of virtual connection, are we losing the real connection? I mean ya you stay in touch and all that but is it the same when you meet and interact with that person. I mean with this whole virtual world talking over, are people saying lol instead of laughing? * I personally know of someone who did that once and let me tell you, it was weird. * Ya well, coming back, I'm just wondering if this whole virtual world is bring us closer or talking is apart?

What Kind of Boots am I? :)



You Are Rain Boots



You are a very playful and fun loving person. Nothing can slow you down.

You are dreamy, and you can find the romance in anything. The littlest things make you smile.



You are outgoing and friendly. You always find yourself talking to strangers.

You are optimistic about the world. Even when it's raining out, the sun is shining in your heart.
