One of my friends wanted to buy a cellphone for his father, he had shortlisted his options and went to the market to see the real product before buying one. He was looking to buy either one of the following - Nokia 2600 or LG 1600 or Sony Ericsson (don’t remember model) which all are in same price range.

To whichever shop we went and asked for their suggestion which is better among all of the them and each one of them said Nokia is Nokia which meant that blindly go for Nokia whereas when we compared the features Nokia is worst among them there is no comparison. LG 1600 mobile has lot more features than Nokia 2600 but none of the shopkeepers pointed out anything in favour of LG.

I believe that Nokia as a brand has created a dent in the minds of people and they are unable to look beyond the name and in the process they forgo the better alternatives that are available in the market.

A child, delivered by a woman in the washroom of a running train, slipped down the toilet hole and was later found alive on the tracks between Khatoli and Mansuri railway stations, 15 km from Muzaffarnagar in Uttar Pradesh.

Shabnam was travelling from Meerut to Saharanpur with her brother on Sunday. She developed labour pain and went to the toilet where she delivered.

The child, however, fell down onto the tracks. A search was launched when the train stopped at Mansurpur station.

The child was found on the tracks and was handed over to its mother, who continued her journey to Saharanpur with her ‘miracle’ child.

Sehwag has again taken a cue from Sachin’s book by opening a restaurant in Delhi. Sehwag who idolises Sachin on field looks very similar while batting and two have been compared often in the past. Sachin who opened a restaurant in Mumbai quite sometime back. Saurav Ganguly who recently made a comeback as captain of India’s team had also opened a restaurant in his home town Kolkata last year. It seems that Indian players consider themselves good restaurateur.

The Indian team’s lack lustre performance since last year has made them look for alternate options in case some major changes takes place in the team if India could not lift its performance and some top guns might face axe.

Sehwag has mentioned, “Everyone makes plans for their retirement. Some people make them early and some late. If I have made them early, what is wrong with that.”

Just wondering if he is considering retirement???

Best wishes to all of you for your happiness and prosperity on 59th Independence day of India.

Yesterday watched Swadesh on STAR Gold starring Shah Rukh Khan directed by Ashutosh Gowarikar. In the film Swades, an NRI idealist - Mohan Bhargava (played by Shah Rukh Khan) is on holiday in India and decides to visit his nanny’s village. A scientist by profession, Mohan he is so moved by the poor living conditions and the plight of people in the village that he decides to stay back to help make a difference. He leads people in the village to come together and generate electricity. While the focus is on generating electricity, the process also involves integrated community development.

CONTRIBUTE ON THE OCCASION OF INDEPENDENCE DAY
On the occasion of the television premiere of the film, Star Gold and Ashutosh Gowarikar have joined hands to embark on a mission - Project Swades.

Project Swades will take the cue from the reel film and work on generating electricity for a village(s), in real life. People can contribute to the cause by SMSing Swades to 7827. For each SMS sent, STAR Gold will donate Rs. 10 to the Project Swades Fund. Reliance and Spice Telecom will also donate Rs. 10 for each SMS their subscribers send, which will be debited to the cell phone bill of the subscriber. The funds will go towards the electrification of one or more villages depending on the amount raised.
