The 'Kagaz Ki Kashti' Moment


"Ye daulat bhi le lo, ye shohrat bhi le lo
Bhale cheen lo mujhse meri jawaani
Magar mujhko lauta do bachchpan ka saawan
Wo kagaz ki kashti wo barish ka pani…"

Who isn't captivated by this evergreen eternal soulful rendition by the maestro Jagjit Singh !
Like most I too very frequently enjoy this beautiful gazal, appreciate and move on with other chores of life.

A SLICE OF JANYA@JEDIMARA JUNCTION


Hi folks,

JANYA...???.... Before your thoughts gather momentum, I would like to clarify that 'Janya' here is not the magical music composer Arjun Janya of the Sandalwood fame, but its literal meaning 'life'. And, Jedimara Tri-Junction, perhaps one of the top ten heavy traffic junctions in Bangalore is located on the Outer Ring Road, ahead of Jayadeva Hospital hissing one way to Bannerghatta and the other towards JP Nagar.
