Lounge: Forgive, Forget and Move on

To Err is Human, To Forgive Divine.

When someone does wrong, we should try to forgive them because all humans make mistake. When it comes to relationship, the forgiveness is a must for better life. But does only forgiving will lead us to good future?

Not really! If forgiving the first step to achieve success in a relationship, forgetting is the last step. If someone has taken only the first step but didn't complete the journey then chances are quite high that during any argument or during low moments in future, one can comment on the mistake committed by the other partner. That would be more hurting as other might have forgot that and might have been fully committed to the relationship.

Hence to move on towards the happiness and perfection of a relationship, forgiving and forgetting both is a must!

Pati, Patni aur Voh

NDTV imagine started another reality show titled "Pati, Patni aur Voh". In this reality show, 5 couples are given one child each and live as families. The challenge in this show is to take care of small kid for which most of the celebrities don't have any experience.

When I saw the show first time, I couldn't stop myself thinking about the parents who had given their kids for this money game. How can anyone let her/his kid give to another people and see the little one crying on the show? Is money so important to them? If they can rent (couldn't find better word) the little ones for some lakhs, how much would they need to sell?

It is good to see NCPCR in action but I would like to see some real action on such shows where children are getting exploited for money game. We should let them live their childhood with innocence and shouldn't force for doing something.

For god sake, let them flourish naturally!!!

Local "Aaj Tak" in Bangalore

If you are in Bangalore and like to watch "Aaj Tak" then you have a better channel to watch. Recently there is a city channel launched and it is very well on the track of "Aaj Tak" to show all masala events and gossips but the serious and mature issues or talks.

I had been following Aaj Tak since long time and specially if there is an incident in the country. All other national channels would try to cover the incident, reasons behind it, possible solution etc. but our dear Hindi news channel would bring some Astrologer or Tarot Card reader to predict all these. I am so confident about it that I immediately switch Aaj Tak to see the type of new crap idea it brought.

I was thinking that the local news channel would give us more information and news on the Bangalore issues like infrastructure, social life, political, sports happenings and all rather than just giving the basic information like all other national news channels are doing. It spends most of the time in covering the TV shows happenings (when we watch show itself), the movies and bollywood (when we have specialized bollywood channels to cover all these), the food and travels around (it is bit better but still we have couple of channels today to give us better information and guidance) etc.

I would expect it to take the problems of each area, do the research to find out the root cause of those problems, possible solutions or the ways to solve it, motivate people to join them (not just by sending some roses to someone but some tangible actions) etc. to really make an effect in the city. There are so many things to cover but I know the channel won't cover it.

Because they have the impression that it won't help them in increasing the TRP of their channel which is true up to an extent because any serious thing takes it own time to make an impact. They have to wait and work hard to get to that level where they will be really appreciated rather than becoming another "Aaj Tak".
