... ab ke baras tujhe dharti ki rani kar denge, ab ke baras...
I was enjoying my breakfast when this line from Manoj Kumar's Kranti fell into my jolly ears. The hitherto upbeat heart started an introspection of sorts. And this line proves to be a dream even today.
But then, I swore back at myself. 15th August should be a day to celebrate. And celebrations in my heart still continue, till writing of this post. Sixty two years since we became soverign. WOW!
But yes, we MUST learn to value this independence. We must tackle the threats to our Motherland that come in different faces. Terrorism, failed monsoon, rising prices, Swine flu, public peeing, eve-teasing, caste-system, corruption.. the list goes on.
Ooppsss........... again I took the track that seems inappropriate when the mood should be merry. Okays, let me put rest to my mind, that is speaking through my fingers at the moment.
Hey hang on! I am NOT done yet.
Okay, I wind up by saying that let us celebrate our nation's independence.
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO ALL FELLOW INDIANS.
And yeah, we have to keep humming..... ab ke baras tujhe darti ki rani kar denge..... and mean it , too.
