YAADEIN

Dedicated to all my friends and the special one who had been with me in all the visits to CEPT.


Woh parking main pyar bhari baatein,
Woh syllabus ka tension, woh exam ki raate...

Woh nescafe ki maggi, woh rabdi ki chai,
Woh canteen ka dosa, woh birthday ki pitai...

Woh CEPT ki bhel, woh ruturaj ka maska-bun,
Woh techfest, woh culfest, woh days ka fun...

Woh ruthna, woh manana, woh bunk, woh mulaqate,
Woh viva, woh project ki lambi lambi raate...

Woh lab, woh library, woh proxy lagana,
Woh movie, woh music, woh gana bajana...

Woh sms chat, woh low call rates wali baate,
Woh pyar, woh takrar, woh dil me chubhte kaante...

Na rahenge yeh din, na rahengi woh raate,
Bachegi kuch to bas yeh "YAADEIN"

2 States: The Story of My Marriage



The 4th one by Chetan Bhagat.
Had been waiting for this book for a long time, but it got released suddenly.
So went to Crossword and got a copy.
It took nearly 14 hours to complete this book.
Its a story about Krish and Ananya who are from to opposite poles!(Delhi and Chennai!!)
They fall in love with each other while studying together at IIM-A and after their PG they decided to convince their families for marriage. But life takes a different turn and the families repel...!!!
The story then continues with Ananya and Krish both trying win over each other's families.

The book draws attention to the cultural differences existing in India.
And I suggest everyone to read this once...
Rating 4/5

Five Point Someone – What not to do at IIT



Well, its a book about the students at IIT, but i really dont know if such things happen there. But the book is really good. Characters are really interesting. And CB has written the book in a funny, conversational style. The story is about 3 guys studying at IIT and the incidents which take place when they try to beat the system.

The book is a collection of human emotions. and CB has put them very well.
Must read for all collegians...

This book has also been the plot for the move 3 Idiots.
And the controversies regarding the movie has made both of them famous...

Ratings: 4/5

My name is Khan














A love story with a difference.



Its a movie about a muslim guy(Rizwan Khan) who suffers form Asperger syndrome(google it). And his life before and after the 9/11.
After the 9/11, a striking incident splits Rizwan from his wife Mandira. And to win back her love, Rizwan embarks on an inspiring journey across America to meet the President just to convey his message.

Sharukh Khan showing a brilliant piece of acting once again.
Songs of the movie are not that good.
The movie lacks action.
Good dialogues though.

Overall Rating: 4/5
