Ganguly, Tendulkar... time for retirement?

I really think it's the time for Ganguly and Tendulkar say bye the international cricket. My personal view is they are great players and they achieved a lot in there long career. But it's really not done that they are blamed by people and media for there poor form and attitude towards the team member.

I think they should understand they have achieved a lot and they don't have anything to prove now. I don't think they have any chance to play in the next world cup after four years. So what is that for they are playing now?

In my opinion they should retire and if they really want to be in touch with cricket, they can easily do so. In fact they can help Indian team and others with their experience.

Mirakkel 3......back with a bang!

Mirakkel, a comedey show aired in 'Zee Bangla' is the best relatily show in the recent time. Infact, it makes me egarly wait for 10 PM for the last three days of the week. I have been a regular viewer of this show from its second term. Thank God! Pune's cable operator airing Zee Bangla for last few months and it gives me the oppertunity to view this show.

Yesterday Mirakkel starts the third term with some changes in it's format. It actually copies same format of a popular tv reality show 'Sa Re Ga Ma Pa'. Now we have three mentors to brush up contestants and three judges. Paramborto, Rudronil and Kanchan are the the best choices without any doubt. I am pretty sure they will add another level to this show.

Althoug I have some doubts regarding one permanent Judge. Poran has to be more consistent with his judging. But, no doubt about 'Ronny Da'. I am sure, he would as colorful as ever. And the third guest judge slot which is for the 'pretty womans' of bengal film fraternity, would be a spice to this show.

All the very best to all of them!!!

Mr. Kalam next President ?

I think Mr. Kalam should not be made the president for the second time. Although, he would be a very good choice for the second term but this will be a shame for us. As this will mean we don't have an alternative presidential role candidate who is as good as Mr. Kalam from the whole political or apolitical fraternity.

Mr. Kalam has completed his tenure quite successfully. But has he really made any significant difference for India's bright future? I think he has played very safe during his tenure by keeping himself out of any kind of controversy. But, as a whole if I have to give him marks for his performance as Persident I would give 6 out of 10.

My perference for Presidential candidate would somebody from the Political fraternity itself. I believe Persident's role is not a mere portfolio. President has to participate in national and international politics concerning to India's interest. He who would be the next president should have a great vision to see India a developed nation in near future.

Anyways let's see who makes it to the top post. My choice would be Somnath Chatterjee.

It's hot out there

Temperature is really a shocking true this time of year in India. I am living in Pune right now and this place is known for it's cool and comfortable weather but I don't think it's true any more. Pune is boiling now-a-days. I can't think of to go for some work on the day time. So the holydays and weekends are really a boring. I need to come to office daily by riding 12 kms every day in the day time and that is the worst part of my life these days. It's really horrible. Sometime I think, I should have those shoes of 'Bhuter Raja' that 'Gupi-Bagha' has.

Anyways, keeping those dreamy thoughts of escaping this hot weather in a side, I think the time has really came to seriously think about it. Global Warming is no more a topic of essay or a sci-fi theme of hollywood movies, it's a reality. I think we need to work on making awareness of Global Warming among people. In fact, one good idea would be Politicians should take this up as there election agenda. It would be really a nice thing.
