Let us take a look back to the good old days where are freedom fighters fought to keep are generation alive and free of foreign rule. Or else, even we could have ended up like most of the other countries with mixed races!

Lord Mountbatten of Burma, the last English Governor-General in India, on the 3rd June, 1947, declared about the separation of India into two halves – The India, today and Pakistan. This was done according to the provisions laid down by the Indian Independence Act 1947. On the night of 14 August, 1947, India was freed from foreign rule and it became independent.

Our first Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, said so in diary :

"At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance….. We end today a period of ill fortune, and India discovers herself again."

Seemingly timid Dimpy Ganguly Mahajan not so naive after all

Posted: 12 Aug 2010 11:52 AM PDT

Dimpy

Dimpy

The hot and sexy bikini-clad shots of the alleged wife-beater Rahul Mahajan's wife Dimpy Ganguly were bound to make headlines. Though Dimpy was very successful in immaculately carving an impressively clean image of herself during the reality show "Rahul Dulhaniya le Jayega" which got her hitched with Rahul Mahajan, a series of skimpy Dimpy was on the porn sites frolicking in the pool with her numerous admiring boyfriends, has exposed her completely.

The falsely angelic model-turned-wife of equally controversial husband is now up for a ticket into the upcoming show Big Boss 4 and her abusive husband is backing her up. It was only for 2 days that their separation drama lasted with Dimpy showing marks and bruises of domestic violence and dumping him never to come back. The patch up came equally fast and now they are attending couple counseling to save their marriage which was a very popular televised event after she was chosen by Rahul to be his life-partner on March 6, 2010.

Now in another twist to the reality shows, Fazilla Allana, producer of the show RDLJ Special from SOL Productions, she will get to be in the centre of a bizarre set of events that would unfold when she will face ex-Dulhaniya's Harpreet Kaur, Sonia Kaur, Charmy Chauhan and Priyadarshini Singh whom she defeated to become Mrs. Mahajan. It's going to be at its best in the bitching department.

Dimpy Ganguly Mahajan's pics and the hot video in circulation on the internet has left little to the imagination and brings out the contrived face of the 21 year old ex-model, who went on to win Gladrags and the second place in Sananda Tilottama in 2007, out in the open. The video is said to be taken before she participated in the show "Rahul Dulhaniya le Jayega".

With a very much dubious image now in place Dimpy Ganguly Mahajan is bound to come out with flying colors in the much awaited Big Boss 4 which has roped in Salman Khan as the new anchor.

Ramadan: Muslims all over the world keep fast

Posted: 12 Aug 2010 11:29 AM PDT

ramadan

Muslims, all over the world are observing a fast in the holy month of Ramadan. The strange thing and most unique part is a non-muslim named Eilish Bromley from Bradford has undertaken it this time around. She's doing it to empathize with her muslim friends and truly bond with them by understanding their culture and feelings.

She explained that she has innumerable friends who are Asians and as a mark of respect towards their religion and their culture, she has decided to fast along with them this year. Muslims refrain from partaking any alcoholic drinks and food throughout the holy month of Ramadan from Dawn till Dusk. Those who keep the fast wake up in the wee hours of the morning when there is no light and have a small meal referred to as "suhur".   Click here Ramzan/Ramadan 2010 the month of fasting is on its beginning, Time Table

They have to stop any mundane activities like eating when they are called for prayer at dawn and continue their fast until dusk when the4th call to prayer has ended. This tradition is expected to be held by any muslim who has attained puberty until he/she is physically capable. Eilish claims that this fast which started as a fetish would ultimately lead her on to a better cognizance of self.

She's pretty excited and nervous at the same time at the prospect of rising at about 3 in the morning to have her breakfast. She has had experience in fasting before and she's all happy and proud to keep it again for her friends. She thinks it is quite normal and doesn't result in any weight loss whatsoever.

It would be particularly harsh for the British Muslims though. They would have to sustain 17 hours without any food intake. The seriously ill, senior citizens and mentally unstable people do not necessarily take part in the fast but the first two classes of people are supposed to do good by feeding the downtrodden.

The end of the fast is celebrated as Eid-Ul-Fitr, a day for Muslims to really let go. It also is the 1st day of the next month referred to as "Shawwal".
When they have finished their last fasts, all Muslims put on new apparel and offer their Eid Prayers before going on their celebration mode.

Sehri ki dua: begins the auspicious holy fasting month of Ramzan

Blackberry phones asked by the Indian governments to provide them with the communication details

Posted: 12 Aug 2010 09:54 AM PDT

BlackBerry

INDIA : The Blackberry phones are facing problems with the government. The facts that the data of the blackberry network communication is not available to the government is infuriating the Indian government.

By 31 of August, the blackberry phones have been given a deadline to provide access to the government of their calls. The 2008 attacks of Mumbai, in which around 166 people were left dead, may have happened owing to the exclusive blackberry messenger communication which is not not being tapped.

The government has given a deadline to Blackberry and if it does not comply with its restrictions, its services would be halted. The Research in Motion (RIM) and international government are in a dispute with each other.

On Being asked about the deadline, Blackberry refuses to comment. Their plan of action is still unknown.

The central issue is how governments monitor the encrypted traffic from BlackBerry devices.

What still lies as a problem, is that how would the government be able to monitor the communication from the Blackberry devices.

This first happened in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) that the Blackberry network was asked to be monitered by their governments. They too have decided to monitor the chats and messages which otherwise could have proved risky to the security of the country.

Leander Paes

The famous tennis player, Leander Paes is all set to step into the the colorful world of Bollywood from his all white world of Tennis.

Paes earlier used to be the flag-bearer and a sports icon in India.

His role which debuts him in the glamorous industry is a little off-side. He has never been characterized that way before. Well that is another thing that he has never been any character in movies before!

The movie has been named as ‘Rajdhani Express‘. The direction has been performed by Ashok Kohli. The role I was talking in the above paragraph is of a common man. Folks, you might be thinking that it is just a common man, but mind it, the common man is the most complex creature and one of the most powerful roles ever performed. Remember Naseeruddin Shah playing a common man in ‘A Wednesday’.

The tennis star has drawn inspiration from Bapu, Mahatma Gandhi. He knew it the moment he read the script that he would do it. Just like his inspiration used to put it :

“Be the Change that you would like to see in the world”. He would be performing the role because he wants to bring desired changes in the world and has started from Bollywood.

The debutant director, Anusha Rizvi, has mainly kept the light upon the farmer suicides, which increased pretty much by last year, and as to the different political parties gaining out of one farmer’s suicidal note.

The film further portrays the farmer, played by Raghvir Yadav, to not be able to repay loans and one who is unable to save his small land from being snatched away. Raghuvir would be seen going to the limits to save his livelihood, here it would be his small land.

Neil who recently visited Coorg for the shooting of his film 'Saat Khoon Maff' opposite Priyanka Chopra, wherein Neil plays one of the seven husbands the lady has, gave out lots about his chemistry with Deepika Padukone in Lafangey Parindey.

Apparently Neil had to act out a love making scene with Priyanka, but because of the lack of time and interaction, the actor faced great difficulty giving it his best shot. But with a professional like Priyanka Chopra and a mentor director like Vishal Bhardwaj, Neil did make it through.

When the actor was asked if his panic was a result of his camera shyness, the actor disagreed saying that he just landed up in Coorg and had to immediately put up the act without any prior interactions with the actress. He also claimed that with Deepika it was altogether a different experience, being just him and her into the act with oodles of comfort level.

But in Saat Khoon Maaf he is just one among the other seven men who play the role of the husbands opposite Priyanka Chopra. The actor also showered praises for Piggy chops and the director Vishal Bhardwaj for being subjected to a real learning experience working with them.
