Piracy of movies has started hampering friendship----believe it or not

Recently I tried to convince my friends to watch a movie in a theatre so as to have a good time after a tough schedule, the movie was one week down. It was a fabulous movie.
A couple of friends immediately came with a reply that they have watched the movie on their lappy. So they had no interest in watching the movie. This led to splits among people who wanted to see and who didn't want to see the movie.
So we had two ways either half of go for the movie or we cancel the movie plan and go somewhere else.
But movie was too good to miss. But we missed watching in group.

MORAL of the story: Dont watch a pirated movie in the first week atleast so that u could have a good time with ur friends watching movie together and not being felt left out.
It will keep ur friendship intact.

'Kala Ghoda' ------- A must watch art festival

Wow, is much much less in front of the biggest art festival of mumbai.

I had just been for a day to visit a stall set up by my college frnd at price of wales, but i felt a day is not enough for the same.

Caricatures, bonsai, Wall paintings, social messages, cultural artwork from different parts of the country,Drama, fashion show ....the list goes on and on....

I had heard of it many times but realised the beauty once i saw....

The Tipping point MUMBAI

We constantly here people saying mumbai is getting populated, People from other states are coming to mumbai and causing various issues of space and supplies. There are various political parties which are banking on the same issue.
The fact remains that people who come from outside mumbai for earning some money, where do they come and stay in mumbai, cuffe parade? bandra? vile parle? gharkopar?
The ans is no. They come and stay at the outskirts of mumbai ie. kalyan, dombivali, ambarnath etc. Government is doing their bit by developing Navi mumbai.
These guys travel to mumbai for Jobs and then get back to their places.
So where does Tipping Point come into picture over here? As Malcolm Gladwell has given the example of shabby trains and policing at stations as one of the reason of increased crime in US. This problem was solved by just bringing about a small change of making the trains look good and solving the policing issue at stations. This small step solved the crime issue in US.
What I feel for Mumbai the issue is very basic.

• I feel the 'TRAINS in MUMBAI' resposible for giving a negative picture about mumbai, that mumbai can't handle any more people. Thus giving the honourable political parties an agenda.
• When do the migrated people travel to mumbai? It is either early morning while going to job or while returing to their homes after their job hours.
• The fact is that the morning 3hrs form 8-11am and evening 4hrs from 7-10pm.
• It is during this times the train which should run 12bogie runs for 9bogie many a times.
• Also the frequency of the trains required to pick up the passenger is quite high during this hours, but the frequency at present is still not what is required.
• The issue here is operations. The demand for trains on these hours is more and supply is less.
• The number of people travelling after these hrs is normal.
• The only change required is to manage these hours. These small changes would surely change the perception of people and it would help us in bringing about larger change in the society and Mumbai would belong to all.
