Happy birthday to Ef Syed Kabeeruddin from Bangalore .. for tomorrow March the 19th .. 🎂🎉
And .. for the greeting missed on the 17th .. it’s happy wedding anniversary to Ef Sonia .. 💍💕
Love and the wishes ever for peace and of a life full of smiles and fulfilment .. ✨💠
may there be the colours of peace and calm .. ever .. 🌹
.. a quiet and undisturbed festival at home .. kids of of town and country .. and a ‘barsi’ of family member ..
travel tomorrow .. and as ever the apprehension of new projects and the ones that have been on board to be justifiably within the range of subjective ‘deed done’ ..
what is it that makes one restless before the assignment .. many are so calm and collected .. others like moi so deranged with all the negatives possible .. dear o dear .. how ever can this change ..
but each day is a learning and the medical known today for a cold and blocked nose , and the sound and travel of the time of blowing it, going into the ears was unexplained till the doc educated it ..
there is a connection between the nose and the ear .. and if the nose is blocked, when it is blown, the blown block changes course and goes into the ears and causes pain .. remedy .. unblock the nose .. more particularly when you fly , for on take off and landing the pressure is great and causes discomfort and pain ..
ok enough of medicine and pains .. off to the resting and do know that it is these elements that connect us all ..
wonder ..
the still camera friend Ashutosh loved this .. said it reminded him of a certain Vijay Dinanath Chauhan .. 🤨
this is the greatest of all elements ..
Good night .. and love and the blessings of the Almighty on this festive day ..

holika burns amidst the moon in its brightness .. evil be destroyed .. peace and well being prevail .. the colours of Holi bring life and light .. and may the varied colours be the colours of our lives - bright shining and in the happiest of celebrations ..
celebration shall be restricted .. passings in the family on the day .. distant form home .. and the protocol of the virus ..
ritual love and ritual deeds .. so alluring to the minds of us through the ages and ages of belief and faith .. may they prolong our happiness in all forms .. may they bring harmony and peace .. may it bring succour to the suffering .. and healing to the distressed ..

.. the complicated exterior for the interior to be presentable ..
.. and Rana the actor of fame .. shooting next door and drops by to visit me .. so obliged and humbled ..
.. on a train again .. the train rides of the earlier years come floating by .. and with nostalgia - some exciting some not ..
.. smile and the World shall smile with you .. even though we are aware that in some parts of the Universe this is hard to come by .. but we hope and pray that peace prevails .. and suffering ceases ..
One of the most irritating conditions to be in is the common cold .. and even though it may be addressed as ‘common’ it is indeed quite uncommon , at least from the conditions that my damaged body goes through ..
So one bears ponders and continues ..
the ad., shoot for the RBI was somewhat train borne and stable .. it was in completion sooner than what the ‘chaukadi’ had imagined .. but it was over .. and then around 16 shorter videos were done and accomplished before the lunch break could be announced .. pretty cool na !
.. but the medication is drowsy filled and containing elements that bring lethargy to the fore front .. and one copes with that .. somewhat .. 😅 and the afternoon nap after ages allows the time to flow by for another 4 hours .. 4 hours of rest ! that is amazing, but due mainly to the drugs for the cold .. hmmm ..
So when there is opportunity to nap while being driven to home, the mind still maps the route being taken and visually keeps informing the mind as where we have reached, until the bell rings and home has arrived .. strange ain’t it !!
Interpretation of dreams is something that has been of interest and there have been many suggestions for its reveal, but without any success .. books and gurus of the medium have registered their valuable inputs but it has always fallen short of the reality , for the reality is of little verified truth than any other ..
What could be a dream for one could be a nightmare for the other and vice versa .. so we despair not and allow in its frequency to be held without reason and live in the realm of imagination and its fructification ..
spoken but never valued ..
as it nears the hour, the wish shall be pronounced to the first born - Shweta , named by Babuji as Shwetambara , the one clad in white , Saraswati the Goddess of Learning .. wisdom perception and good sense !
I leave .. and love ..

And it’s happy birthday to Ef Manish Mishra for the 15th ..
And happy wedding anniversary to Ef Krishna Kant Dangi for the 13th ..
Love and prayers .. 🙏🏻💠✨… and my wishes for safety and peace and calm .. love from the Ef 🌹
promoting what you have made for others to go and see .. the PR machine taking over .. the publicity managers, the designers who shall design what needs to be said to get people to come in their masses to see the film ..
.. and the joint day of work and an aspect of film making where the making of the promotion is never less than the making of an entire film ..
So its the versatile Ajay and his film Runway 34 .. Produced, Directed, Acted and did every conceivable work related to the film himself .. a task of immense difficulty .. especially when each shot designed by him has 12 cameras running at the same time, and he gets up from his acting shot after it is over to check each camera before moving on ..
and meetings and discussions for the future projects .. and then finally ending up a short while ago at ..
Mapping ..
mapping your face ..
the gadgetry that captures each and every pore of your face and body and technically recreates another YOU .. without you being there ..
so bye bye Ef .. another recreated AB shall be meeting you at the gates of Jalsa, even before the protocol of the dreaded CoViD has subsided ..
wait for the results .. what they showed me today at the laboratory where I had to spend 4 hrs making every conceivable facial expression, has been un believable .. but then so is modern science and invention ..
technology has eventually taken over the human .. and in time shall take over the mind as well .. think like us without us knowing that what we thought was our thought without thinking .. 🤪
I must to bed .. early call tomorrow to guide the listeners and viewers on the merits of the Reserve Bank of India .. as their Brand Ambassador ..

The process of thought in these days and times is a process which I now discover, has been notoriously given the pseudonym of a certain Shri Googlé !
It used to be ‘when in doubt, shout’ , but then since, the affections have altered and the informant of all possible required information rests peacefully with the Shri G ..
And the gentleman has such a vast sense of obligation that even in the worse case scenarios , unknown, unaltered, by any circumstance, he responds with reason and effect .. when he knows !
When he does not, he has the honesty to say so, in unabashed brazen and audacious verbology .. and even in this unfound word it tells me that it could be an expression in the ‘urban dictionary’ not typically in use ..
SO ..
( many may wonder where this is leading to )
every now and then a reference is desired and at times they belong to a category that may never have a direct meaningful mean .. so what does one do .. ?
we refer to it in any case , and when questioned point towards that emoj’d finger in the other direction .. 👈 / 👉 ..
I tried that, not so very long ago and discovered that the intel quotient in the system is actually prepared for all circumstances .. it can manufacture run it and lock you out if needed ..
Which brought memories of the film ‘2001 Space Odyssey’ and the human manufactured computer system Hal on board .. which actually has been preprogrammed by the human to defy human behaviour or command .. it being the most brilliant moment in the film .. and its death by physically unscrewing his parts is the most poignant moment - the dichotomy of a human, killing another human manufactured human ..
Oh mr Kubrik you are a genius Stan .. in every film you designed, the variety, the innovative condensation, the genre shift in each, has without doubt made you stand out as the ‘greatest cinematic human’ - pardon the pun .. of all time ..
AND ..
the choosing of the name for the on board computer as Hal .. was simply stupendous ..
HAL as in Shakespeare’s Henry .. Henry the V or the VI th in their notoriety .. or was it derived from the French Henri .. often pronounced .. Onree .. and then straightened out to the simpler Henry or nick named Hal ..
Dear O dear ! .. we started with what and have landed up somewhere in the odyssey of unrelated unconcerned mirrored intelligentsia ..
yes I do this at times .. 🤪

DAY 5138
Jalsa, Mumbai Mar 12, 2022 Sat 11:02 PM
its a day that went hopping about from one issue to another and then some more .. and still not having the gumption to give it the finale it needed .. personal professional and some more ..
the remarkable aspect of the issues were that they varied from shutting a window .. like the window of the room not the computer .. to shutting out the unwanted , and there are many such .. !! 🤨
life teaches each day , and the take away , which seems to be the end conversation in all meetings after they are over, is that the learning stays .. the yearning of its unwanted presence never does leave .. that brings uncomfortable cerebrum brums to the fore .. its brums not brims .. brims one understands .. I have been brought to that many a time and patiently suffered its presence .. its a brum that has no ear for a listen .. no ear because it is a word yet to be discovered by a certain ‘Oxford Dictionary’ or a ‘mr Webster’ .. if that be the be all and end all of vocabulary .. I mean .. why only them .. why not us and the Ef and the moi .. 🥸
we all have the capacity to invent .. do we not .. each DAY invention occurs here on this very page and missive .. and each day the process continues on the T and the FB and the InST , and what ever else have you .. is it not ..
alright do not bother to confess .. the cerebrum shall vitiate the air about ..
cerebrum have the tendency to involve themselves in the procedures .. procedures that tickle and taste the temperament of the ‘brum’ ..
getting complicated ..?
ah that was the general idea .. 🤪🤪
there is another curse of the ‘brum’ .. equipment change .. !!!
the ‘top’ the ‘mob’ the ‘pad’ the ‘iM’ .. 🥵 .. every conceivable move to complicate the processes that you may have spent a lifetime to master is wound up and smacked against your face so you never wish to encounter it again ..
marketting को लेकर , system की तो वाट लगा देते हैं … खटिया खड़ी .. कर लो जो करना है
but worry not .. will learn again and again and again .. until it gives up .. not me .. IT .. it gives up .. 😂
actually it has ..
hey this is pretty slick , ain’t it ..
good night and all my love to all the Ef and even the non Ef .. no no no .. ONLY Ef, else the Ef shall get upset .. sorry sorry .. only the Ef ..
Good night

Tomorrow .. March 12th .. is the birthday of the namesake , Ef AMIT Sangani .. 🎂
And .. on the 9th of March .. it’s happy birthday to Ef Misti Das , the wife of Ef Pradip Das from Tinsukia , Assam ..

Ef Suresh Jumani and his wife Tanya .. March 5 .. 23 years of marriage .. 💍💕
Ef Sanjay Patodiya and his wife Soniya Patodiya .. March 7 .. 22 years of marriage .. 💍💕
Ef Mukherji Ratna (Mili) .. March 8th .. 42 years of marriage .. 💕💍 .. that’s a lifetime .. ❤️❤️

Ef Prashant Kawadia and his wife Rekha .. March 9th .. 14 years of BRAVERY .. 💍💕💪🏼 ..
Loves .. 💐💠✨
The opposite in the composite must be of the similar level, else the ultimate fails or is not conducive to the required level thought of .. it is disturbing to even allow such thoughts to enter the already deeply occupied and saturated mind , but it does .. and it not just disturbs, but questions the professional ability of the task at hand .. and of course the impression it shall have in the space that professionalism is expected ..
If there is conformation of contract in mind will and letter, then execute as committed, else regret ad leave , for the rest get affected too .. caring for the other is a part of the final output .. the ultimate is not just a personal view point , it is the viewpoint of the collective .. one link in the cable broken or fused shall not allow the current to flow through with the efficiency it should or is expected .. a punctured tube in a cycle tire, is a puncture tube it is not the fresh new .. it is patched and shall ever remain so .. the wheel shall function, the tyre shall move , but the scar on the tube shall ever remain and what is worse, will have the capacity to perhaps bleed again ..
It is a game that shall be ever sketched in the time of posterity ..
Get the right stuff, get the confirmed tested product, get the best, and then expect it to perform the best .. yes get it to perform the best ..
No amount of assurance or understanding of the subject or circumstances can be or give any reassurance ..
Do it .. rectify .. or suffer
.. thats it …
and the delay is tempted with the luxury of an early bed .. a freak off day .. a catching up on various meetings and the liberty of being liberal .. in more ways than one .. details not needed to be justified ..

DAY 5136
Jalsa, Mumbai Mar 10, 2022 Thu 11:41 PM
Opinions may differ .. ideas of how it needs to be done differ .. adjustments and provisions for any alternate may differ .. but differ away , not at the time .. wastage and needless distractions .. you are not the only one , there are others too in the same boat .. sort it out before coming, argue debate and suggest, but not now .. earlier .. work is given miles before , read think decide design then .. but ..
if you shall listen and concentrate on the goings on you will know before hand, or on hand as you see .. diversifying on unconnected conversation shall distract the mind into other matters, which shall not have useful outcome in the run .. what could have taken an hour taken ten .. more could have been accommodated .. more could have been used for improvement .. for alternates, for another view point .. perhaps an improvement on the last .. but that opportunity never came and it all ends up in a frustrated ambient light that refuses its ambers to bring to light the needed ..
if and when attention is given it shall be acknowledged .. with improbable but lesson learning ideas and thoughts .. showing frustration within the confines of the mass, is weakness .. the craft does not give permission for it .. professionalism demands, and demands with reason .. that reason cannot be altered .. neither can the reason , for its passion 🔥 , once aroused it requires release .. and the frustration grows to the helplessness of body mind and soul .. passion needs honour and acceptance .. at times in such haste that it becomes destructive in nature .. and that is bad, very bad .. destruction is not the wanton demand or option .. it shall be rebuilt yes, but the origin shall never be the same .. it could be a better construct in the rebuild , but never the same .. that toothpaste is out of the tube .. nothing shall or can get it back .. down the drain of the washed , in early morning chore ..
aaah .. this goes no where , and the thoughts of the many wonder what it is that brings this discussion .. nothing really .. its the whattchmacallitin thethngimajig .. virulent and energising, to a limit and then fading away in the dark ..
alright enough .. tis’ not so sweet as it was before .. to work then and the day of the heights .. the heights of unrelenting impossibilities ..
.. the rehearse before the others arrive .. the paper is a prop not the dialogue
.. and the food is genuine .. 🤪
… and the wait is genuine too ..
work done in the jiffy of a jiff .. and way home via the gym .. work then, a move for mobility to lubricate the body systems and the wheels to keep moving before they that have aged, smell the coffee and languish ..
.. and in the solitude of the night by the desk crowded with the latest, the much needed connect to the bright fervent and dedicated Ef ..
crowded with the latest ? yes instruments change and progress at the drop of a cake ..
eh ..? cake .. ? where did that come from ..
the cake at birthdays .. never knew why .. and the candles to signify the age and then to be blown out with the singing of signature and applause ..
???? !!!!
we light a दिया for prosperity and riotousness .. its flames reflecting life longevity and divinity .. when it goes out life goes out ..
but that is us .. here ..
there in the other side of the colony its celebration ..
!!!???
अंग्रेज चले गए , अंग्रेज़ीयत छोड़ गए ..
birthdays .. वर्ष नव , हर्ष नव , जीवन उत्कर्ष नव .. a new year , a new happiness , and a fresh and new achieving extreme ..
है अंधेरी रात पर दिवा जलाना कब मना है .. the night be dark , but when ever was it stopped from lighting a diya .. the diya for life for its extreme .. the lamp of eternal prosperity and divine blessing .. putting it out would be an evil curse ..
we light .. they blow out ..
tradition .. TRADITION ..
the Fiddler .. the Fiddler on the Roof ..
and the magnificent Zero Mostel ..
goodness I talk too much .. it all comes back in droves these days .. what could it be .. the cerebrum under attack so it liberates itself by speaking out .. really ..
why ..?
why cannot I live in my cocoon .. quiet and simple and undisturbed .. !!
was going to name a civilisation and a country, but refrained .. nothing in this extreme world is safe either written or spoken .. gaining attention through its comments is the norm .. sensationalise the content and the numbers go up in the millions .. either that or the divine mention .. or .. err .. ahem .. the clothes !
numbers going up .. !! yup attention and the next post of product enhancement ! and also the enhancement of several other aspects, my dear .. well done ..
SOME is a prosperous business deal ain’t it ??
