Adieu 2018

-
Hey Guys!! Welcome to the Blogpage Again.

So here it is, another fulfilled, roller-coaster year comes to a close.Time to bid Goodbye to 2018. The year has been full of fun, frolic, amusement, disasters, hope, thoughts, new beginnings, tearful endings and a bagful of mixed emotions……

As this year comes to an end, let’s bid 2018 an Adieu with a Flashback –

PNB Scam
2018 started with a 2 Billion Scam in PNB Bank’s Brady House Branch. LOUs given to Nirav Modi created a furore in the country, whilst the culprit, AS USUAL, was and still is offshore!!

North Korea
The Hermit Kingdom and its Premiere had everyone guessing for almost one half of 2018. Whether he will, Whether he will Not press the Button which will activate his favourite Toy – The Nuclear Bomb of North Korea had most of the World Sweating and Donald Trump, well, Swearing!!

CSK Returns
CSK returned from the 2 year Ban to play the IPL. MS and his men came, saw, played and conquered their 3rd IPL Title in the way only they can. #Whistle Podu !!

End of an Era – Atal Bihari Vajpayee
The Former Prime Minister and one of the Most beloved Leaders of India Departed in 2018. His Legacy, Prophecy and  Stewardship continues to remain in our hearts. RIP Sir.

The Saga of Patel

2018 saw the rise and fall of 2 Patels;
The RBI Governer – Urjit Patel and his stance against the Government on Financial Matters such as Liquidity and PCA had to resign midway from his position.

Wherein, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel rose to the highest prominence and stature (literally) in the form of Statue of Unity. The Longest statue in the world now belongs to India. The man largely responsible for welding the princely states into united India, now stands high on the banks of Narmada.
                              
Virat
Meanwhile, there wasn’t any difference between 2017 and 2018 for the Indian Cricket Team Captain. He Made Centuries at will this year as well, albeit with a less amount of expletives and more of the flying kisses!!

 Rude - Crude

Petrol prices skyrocketed above 90 per litre. Right from Dharnas to Modinomics to Scam to Corruption to Early Elections to Subsidies to what Not. By the Way Crude prices world over had also skyrocketed and moreover Traffic was never less on Mumbai Roads.

Raga
3 States in the Hindi Heartland; Madhya pradesh, Rajasthan and Chattisgarh were swept away by Congress in the State Elections. BJP Panicked, Congress Enthused, Media Shocked and At last; Pappu Pass Ho Gaya!!!!


#MeToo
MeToo Movement came to India and How!!!! Whilst lot of Skeletons were revealed, Tanushree Dutta made sure that the Krantiveer Welcomed Khamoshi sans any Rajneeti to turn into Ghulam – e – Mustafa!! #Sanskaari too!!!

The Khans
2018 was a Dud for the Khans as they yet again tried to outdo their own age as well as their Fans’ Intelligence;
Race 3 Could not Race away to any Success
Thugs of Hindostan Thugged the Distibutors
Zero, Well the name says it all!!!

Web Series
While the Stars could not entertain the Moviegoers, Ganesh Gaitonde (Sacred Games) and Kaleen Bhaiya(Mirzapur) revolutionised the content that has been blindly served to the Bollywood Crazy Population. Amazon, Netflix, Hotsar and others are here to stay and How!!!!

Trump Tweets
The Year started with Trump Tweeting about Korea to CNN to Russia to China to Democrats to Republics to What Not !!! Walt Disney surely knows which Donald was Smarter!!!


 And so on and so forth. 2018 was yet another year full of Excitement, Fun, Fulfillment and Achievements coupled with EMIs, Stress, Rejections and Fatigue.

 On a Personal front….The year was full of Shocks, if not Surprises, of Disappointments and Rejuvenation, of Heart Break and Rebounding, of Lost Friendships and New found Buddies, of Insomnia and Sleepless Nights, of Beautiful Drives and Wonderful Camaraderie, of Soul Searching and Overcoming Fears, of Facebook Updates and Thoughtful Blogs, of Tears on the cheeks and Twinkle in the eyes, of eventful past and endearing Future!!!

While the Time will continue to elapse, let us welcome 2019 with all the Hope and Optimism that 2019 will itself come with a resolution – Resolution of being Nice to all of Us!!!

Happy New Year!!!
Cheers

Waves

She stood at the edge of the shoreline, her toes sinking into the soft, grainy sand. The rhythmic crashing of the waves against the shore filled her with a sense of serenity and awe. It was as if each wave carried a message, a story waiting to be heard. She turned to her husband of 15 years, who stood beside her, munching on the peanuts they had bought from a seaside vendor. "I just love the sound of these waves. They have a particular rhythm, a pattern, and a melody. It is indeed music to the ears," she said, a smile illuminating her face. He chuckled, his eyes crinkling with amusement. "I never knew you were a philosopher," he joked, teasingly nudging her shoulder. She laughed and gently nudged him back. "Well, you learn something new every day," she replied, her voice tinged with affection. Lost in the tranquility of the moment, they both fell silent, allowing the gentle breeze to caress their faces. The smell of the sea mingled with the sal

Valentine's Day had forever been a melancholic occasion for her. While her friends revelled in the blissful entanglements of their relationships, she found herself submerged in a sea of desolation. The day served as a painful reminder of her solitude, amplifying her feelings of loneliness and longing. But this year, to the complete astonishment of her friends, who would typically mock the day's futility, she had a date! The news of her newfound romantic connection left her friends in disbelief. They were accustomed to her being the perpetual single one, the one who would roll her eyes at the commercialized nature of the holiday. Yet, here she was, breaking free from her usual melancholy and embracing the special day. However, she chose to keep the identity of her companion a secret. Deep down, she feared that revealing it might somehow cast a spell of misfortune upon her newfound excitement. Perhaps she worried that the universe would conspire against her happiness
