Random Thoughts

I often wonder why I am always surrounded by nice people. No matter how much I try to be bad their love and faith won’t let me be my real self. I am panicking now a days. Is it because of the reason that I am in a crisis or is it because I can no longer hold my anger within myself? Things are going crazy in my life. I am so tired of being good. I wanna be bad I wanna be dangerous.

What's the role of a Celebrity Guest Judge?

Everybody needs attention and publicity now a days, without publicity you won't be able to survive in the world of glamor. So, there is no doubt why Bollywood celebrities appear at these reality shows. They want to gain popularity in every possible way they can. Have you guys ever wonder what's their use or role at a talent show where their appearance hardly matters to the contestants. Every year I see the Bipashas and the Johns are coming to the "Indian Idol Show" but they are just doing the same thing what they do in their non sense movies. Yeah!! you are right I am talking about either they just come to dance like a "Item girl or a boy" with the contestants or they are making silly non sense comments about something on which they don't even have any kind of knowledge. Some of them are even worse, they only come to promote their upcoming movies. My request to all these celebrities would be, "Please spare these reality shows" you have other mediums such as news papers, magazines - why you have to come to a reality show to promote your crap!! movies. The show organizers only bring them to increase the TRP of the show, but why would you need celebrities to do that if there are quality participants featuring in your show your show's TRP will automatically increase. Moreover the main objective of the "Indian Idol Show" is to promote new talents rather than providing a platform to non sense celebrities for further fame.

I guess I have provided enough reasons for you guys that why this show should be banned. All these seems like a perfect script of a movie and everybody is playing ther part very well. This show is a curse to our society. It killing our youth generation. They are being deviated from the real thing of their lives. Stop it please!!

Promises are made to be broken

Banning reality shows like "Indian Idol" is obvious for the people of our country and after reading this post I hope most individuals will agree with me.

We have heard many promises had been made to some of the contestants by our judges and celebrity guest judges during their performances at the "Indian Idol show" but none of those are actually kept in reality. There's one incident I would like to mention as it was also published on some of the well-known newspapers. I hope you all will remember the promises made by Farah Khan to Rahul Saxena after the latter's exclusion from the contest, it was promised to Rahul that he will be doing playback singing in the Farah's forthcoming movie. I wonder whether that has ever happened. We have seen Anu Malik (Who's trying to be the next Simon Cowel) should join acting as his melodramatic act onscreen is getting crappier day by day. Since first "Indian Idol" contest he has made so many contestant a superstar I have almost lost count, but in reality I wonder how many of them have actually worked with Anu Malik.


Ever wondered why Sonu Nigam never wanted to be the judge of "Indian Idol Show" after his appearance in the first season of the show. I don't think any of us know it. But there's rumors Sonu left only because of the reason that he was totally pissed off on the show organizer's who were unable to keep their promises made by them to the contestants.

I think if you are unable to keep your promises then what's the point of running a show like "Indian Idol" where people actually come to make their dreams come true with so much believe but actually left disappointed in the end.

What matters most Popularity or Talent: Looks, Talent or Hype (Part 3)

Last week's tragic incident at Mumbai had disturbed a lot as you can see I didn't make any on post on my blog topic. However from this week onward I'll be posting everything about the "Indian Idol Show" until the next terrorist attack happens in India. Mumbai people seems to have got pretty much used to these kind of things as we can see the same crowd and busyness around the terror hit areas.

I am just kind of confused today about what should I write about Prashant Tamang. Are you people Wondering who is he? Well let me just give a brief introduction about him.

Prashant Tamang:

Claim to fame: Winner of Indian Idol (Season 3)

Profession: A constable with Kolkata Police before winning Indian Idol.

Voice quality: Not sure. Good with a particular form of songs but not so confident with every song.

Musical Training: Don't know

Musical career: Used to sing for a band of Kolkata police in order to entertain higher ranked officers.

How did he became Indian Idol? No one knows.


There were lots of speculation going on at the time when Prashant Tamang became the winner of "Indian Idol 3". One thing is for sure that it was definitely not talent that won him the contest. There were a lot more talented people participated along with him some of them really deserved to be the winner. It was really amazing to see that he didn't even appeared at the danger zone for a single time instead of performing horribly in some episode. This is where I would like to protest the system of public voting cause most of the people in India don't have enough knowledge about music so how can leave the the decision to them when it comes to choosing your Indian Idol. I have even heard rumors that at north eastern regions in India it became a political issue and people are being forced to vote for Prashant. Whatever it is but Prashant Tamang surely was not the deserving contestant to win the "Indian Idol" and I strongly protest the idea of public voting in this case.

And the Saga Continues: Mumbai Terrorist Attacks

Today while coming to office I found that enormous amount of security checking going on all over the city of Kolkata, may be it's because of the Mumbai terrorist attack which has made our city cops so proactive. But I wonder how long this will remain let's say one month or two months and we are again going to see the same situation where people would lead a normal pretending as if nothing has happened. But one thing is for sure this particular attack has left all of shattered and terrified about our future.

Watching the news and seeing dead bodies of innocent people is making me feel disgusted of my helplessness to take some action in this situation. How long are we going to tolerate this thing why aren't our politicians calling for a full fledged war. There are so many questions creeping up in my mind or may be in our mind. Many of us know that whatever is happening is wrong for humanity but we would remain silent saying that this is not in our hand. Sometimes I feel like going straight up to those filthy politicians these questions that why the hell innocent people should loose their lives for the reckless decisions our ministers have taken in the past.

We all know why these is happening, yes it was our past that is haunting all of us for the last 37 years. And still the fury and anger is same. Pakistanis can not ever forget their humiliation in the 71' war and now they are doing it the same way. Operation trident was the name given to the Indian navy's mission to destroy Karachi port in 71' and this attack was also made on Oberoi Trident. I think our government should take some bold action after this incident.


However again I could not write anything about my blog topic cause I found we all should react to the current situation instead of the crappy "Indian Idol Show".

I would like to dedicate this beautiful song from the movie "My Brther Nikhil" to all the people who lost their lives at the "Mumbai Attack".

It's time to take some action - Mumbai Terrorist attack

Just another terrorist attack in India and the target is again Mumbai. I am getting kind of pissed off watching innocent people dying from bomb blast and terrorist attacks. Our country's police are just like puppets in the hands of cruel politicians who'll follow any unethical steps in order to fullfill their own means. But I feel we people are even worse than the politicians cause every year we'll see terrorist killing innocent people in front of our eyes and we'll just mourn for a while and give consolation to ourselves thinking that "Thanks God it was not me".

I think it's time for us to take some action. Instead of criticizing our politicians and administration we should come forward and take some responsibility. I know most us will give the excuse we don't have that much of time but always remember that if our freedom fighters had refused to take the responsibility of removing all the British from our country in the past then we wouldn't have been living in a independent country.

Our young generation, who are actually the future of our country, I would like to request all of you to take some initiative and do some good work for our country for your own sake.

However it's always easier said than done cause I also belong from the same species called human beings who'd only react if anything unfair happens to me. But you know when I think about those people who have actually lost their lives or their relatives in these terrorist attacks I really get terrified of the feeling that the next could be me or any of my family members. We all know that this is difficult for us but we should take some action, even if it's not for you do it for your loved ones.

I would like to apologies to my readers that I could not make any post on the blog topic as I thought it's more important for me to write something sensible in this situation in stead of some crappy television show named "Indian Idol".

Who remembers Sandeep Acharya - Looks, Talent or Hype (Part 2)

Generally writing about something is very boring, tiring and difficult process for me, but I seem to be quite enjoying writing on this topic. May be the reason is that I am not just writing post but some thoughts, against a concept which is not only harmful for our society but also for our future generation.

People now a days want instant money and fame and thanks to our so called reality shows where people are exposed to super stardom quite easily. However this kind of popularity or fame never lasts for long as we all know that without talent you will fail to make it happen in the long run.

The same thing happened with the "Indian Idol 2" winner Sandeep Acharya who somehow manages to clinch the title by beating other contestant (Some of them actually are a lot more talented than Sandeep). I wonder where he is actually, is he alive? Has he quit singing? many of us don't even have single clue about his existent. He seems to have just vanished totally from the scene. May be he is just a bit ashamed of himself cause of the fact that such a non-deserving candidate like him actually end up as the winner of the show. I don't know but that year many people were disappointed to see the "Indian Idol 2" winner, some of them even went on to say that the public votes are being manipulated. One of my readers also mentioned that there's always some kind partiality going on at any contest. I don't know whether it was partiality which actually won Sandeep the "Indian Idol" title or something else.
