Lost and recovered mobile phone
Have you ever left your mobile phone somewhere to realize after few hours that you have actually lost it?
Have you ever tried calling back your lost mobile phone and heard that "The number you are trying to reach is currently switched off. Please try later"?
If yes, how you feel when this happens, bad, pathetic?
Now think about this.
You go to a restaurant with your family for quick dinner. Later at night while trying to find your phone, you call it from other phone only to hear someone else’s voice on the other side. He politely tells that you left the phone at the restaurant and that you can collect it back tomorrow.
How will you feel then? You will feel at the top of the world for sure and feel gratitude towards that person. That is how I felt on Friday when this happened to me at Karnataka Bhavan, Delhi. There are still non-greedy, honest people in this world.

delhi blasts
We had serial blasts in delhi yesterday, and I hate it. I hate the sight of same and hence have not switched the TV since morning. No religion preaches terrorism. Some people out of their frustration do these ridiculus things.
I only want to pray for the victims and their family.

Tahaan - Movie Review
I watched Tahaan yesterday and was frightened by the first site of the theatre. There were only two people sitting in hall, and then we two entered. The first thought that came to mind at that time was, “why have I come to watch this movie which no one else is watching?” Then, two more people entered, and I smiled at them, understanding what they are going through.
Anyhow, the movie started with a dialogue “Birabala Oooooooooo” in a kid’s voice. And then next time I looked at anything but screen was when screen said “interval”. What a movie! It deals with all the difficult things to talk about, Kids, Terrorist, Kashmir, Financial Crunches and yet no where it will let you feel sad and depressed. Not really, well I was actually so much grossed in movie, that when Darr Saab refused to give back the birbal back to Tahaan even when he won the race, I really felt cheated myself. But first half is a must watch if you love water, if you love ice, if you love mountains, if you love nature. Frozen lake, sunrise, sunset, sun rays, snow fall, it never felt that I am watching them in theatre, rather I felt as if I am standing somewhere there in Kashmir and being an eye witness to this beautiful fable.
Second half dealt with Tahaan’s psychology, where he wants birbal desperately and other kid wants to use tahaan’s desperation for his tasks. How he struggles in deciding and questioning what Idrish wants him to do, how he convinces yasin that even though yasin also loves birbal as much as he himself, still it belongs to him because his father has given this to him, how he first takes away the dog saying “tujhe lag jayegi na”, and how he decides that he can do 1000 rounds of the hills to get the birbal back but cannot throw the grenade.
In all, it’s a beautiful movie and I was not bored even for a minute in the movie. So far, out of all the movies I have seen in 2008, undoubtedly this is the best movie so far.

Things to do in $5 in Delhi (New Delhi), India
$5 is Rs 200 (approximately) in India. There are so many things that can be done in Rs 200 in Delhi. I have tried many of them myself and will be trying remaining soon. So here’s my list:
1) Dilli Haat – Only thing it will cost you is Rs 15 as entry ticket. Nice clean market and with nice food available.
What all to do – Look around for nice handcrafted stuff available there. You can easily get something useful and good for Rs 150. Else, you a foodie, get the food from all the states there on special counters. Momos, pav bhaji are all worth trying once.
2) Nehru Planetarium - The Nehru Planetarium in New Delhi is situated in the green surroundings of the Teen Murti House, earlier the official residence of India's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru and now a museum in his memory.
What all to do – Visit the Memorial Museum, Memorial Library or watch the Sky Show. Currently you can watch “Chandrayaan” instead of Sky show, but its equal fun. At the end enjoying its greenery, have a walk
3) Visit Museums – There are many museums in Delhi, some of the best being:
a) Air Force Museum – A Collection of Aero planes & armory
b) Archaeological Museum - Paintings, Textiles, Costumes
c) Gandhi Museum - Personal Belongings Of Gandhiji
d) Indian War Memorial Museum - Arms, Weapons
e) National Gallery Of Modern Art – Nice paintings and library
f) National Science Centre Museum - Display the various Scientific Instruments
g) National Rail Museum - Collection Of Locomotives And Carriages
h) Doll Museum – Collection of Dolls
Price – The only thing one needs to spend on are entry tickets, and they will cost from Rs 10 to Rs 30.
4) Local Markets - like Sarojini Nagar, Connaught Place
What all to do – Roam around in the market, shop for clothes or other house hold stuff within Rs 200 or instead eat in local food joints for same. Rs 200 will be more then sufficient and you can save as well.
5) Watch plays, movies – So many multiplexes, India Habitat Center, Alliance Francais, Shri Ram Center of Art.
What all to do – Watch movie in Rs 150 or even in less in some of the theaters. If you prefer watching plays instead, so many places to watch. Ticket’s cost varies from Rs 0 to Rs 200.
6) Delhi Darshan in DTC Bus - DTC daily operates Sight Seeing Tours from Scindia House. The fare of Delhi Darshan Service is Rs.100/-. The Delhi Darshan ticket of Rs. 100/- will be valid in all city services on the pattern of DTC Green Card. Children between the age of 5 - 12 years will be charged half ticket i.e. Rs. 50/-.
Places you will be visiting – Red Fort, Raj Ghat, Indra Gandhi Samriti, Qutab Minar, Lotus Temple, National Rail Museum, Birla Mandir (Shri Laxmi Narian Temple).
7) Delhi Metro Tour – Buy the one day card for Rs 70 and browse the extensive, latest metro network in Delhi. One of the best public transportation medium is absolutely worth exploring.
8) India Gate – Go to India Gate and enjoy the green and clean surroundings and breathe taking view of India Gate.
What all to do – Go equipped with balls, Frisbees or just a pack of playing cards, or watch monkeys perform, blow soap bubbles all over the lawns, play with balloons and even get your insides turned inside out on a ferris wheel, loll on the cool lawns, lick a bar of ice candy and watch the floodlit arch and the fountains nearby that seem magically lit up with coloured lights.
9) Visit Forts: Old Fort, Red Fort, Humayun Tomb, Tughlaqabad Fort
What all to do – The colossal forts in Delhi, besides portraying a grand architecture also narrate the history of the erstwhile maharajas who reined this place. Standing amidst the greens of lush manicured gardens, they indeed create a magnificent sight.
10) Zoo - The New Delhi Zoo is a place for animal lovers. It is generally clean, very relaxing place to spend a full day. The entrance price is only 50 Rupees, including the map, which is an exceptionally good deal.
11) Akshardham – It’s a newly constructed awesome temple in New Delhi. It has found its place in Guinness book of world records as well. Place known for its beautiful carvings and architecture has to be visited once at least.
What all to do – Look at the beautiful carvings all over the temple. The awesome architectural work will force you to appreciate its beauty. Watch light and water show, have food in its cafeteria.
12) Have food in one of the local food places – dhabas in CP, local Chinese and South Indian Food Joints
What all to do – This is a must for all delhites and foodies. Awesome Indian food at awesome prices, we delhites survive on it.

Spend 5 days in Rs 100 per person
While browsing news channel, I came across one exciting game. They asked few of their employees to spend a day out in Rs.100. And then they had a show how they all used their money.
I got enthused by the idea and shared same with my hubby. He apparently appreciated the thought. And we decided that we will try to live 5 days on Rs. 100 each. So from Monday to Friday, we have to go out every day and only thing that we could spend was Rs 200 in whole. This of course didn’t include petrol cost and grocery for home. This only included outing expenses and we went out everyday after our office.
Monday: We went to Sarojini Nagar. It’s a street market in South of Delhi. I am in street market, so resisting shopping was tough. I bought one pair of socks and one bag to collect dirty clothes, and oops we already spent 60 bucks. Given we need Rs 10 for parking, we were left with 130 bucks. We had a round in the market and just browsed all the stuff available. I found one Capri that I really needed, but couldn’t shell 100 bucks for it. So I decided, can buy it later in this week. Went to a local food joint and had dinner there in 93 bucks. So after rounding off the payment, we still had Rs 30. Wow, I can take toll back, and remaining Rs 10 went for pani puri. So Day-One was success and fun. :)
Tuesday: We went to Dilli Haat. It’s a local handicraft market, again in South Delhi. Entry ticket was Rs 30 for us. :( So we decided to have food first and then see if we can shop something, as I only have Rs 160 now. Remember Rs 10 is for parking. We had one plate momos and one plate noodles, and that costed only Rs 70. Wow! Rs 90 left so I bought some bangles for Rs 50. Took toll back and still saved Rs 20. Great day.
Wednesday: It was CP this time that is in Central Delhi. We parked our vehicle in inner circle. We ate street food and finished our dinner in Rs 50 only. Then I bought a skirt for Rs 120, and that had huge bargaining effort involved. My calculation showed that after giving parking expenses, I can still use toll for going back. But they have hourly charges for parking after more than 4 hours, and I parked my vehicle for around 5 hours. I had to drop Rs 20 and no toll to go back. Day went ok as CP is tedious. :(
Thursday: By now, we have almost mastered this trick. And I wanted to watch a movie. Long live Shakuntalam. My old college time favorite theatre. Ok, we will bear without dolby and all, but watching ‘tashan’, yuck. But movie is needed, I am missing my bollywood quotient for the week and hence really feeling depressed. So we watched ‘tashan’ at Rs 70 per head and ate road side chinese food in Rs 50. Day again a success and visiting shakuntalam was definitely nostalgic and real fun.
Friday: Last day of the regime. We were happy that from tomorrow we don’t have to appear so stingy. And I was really tired as usual so we decided for Mac D’s and that was kind of lavish. We had burgers, French fries, soft drinks and burgers again all within Rs 180 and again saved Rs 10. Wow.
Last five days were full of some real fun, excitement and lots of adventure. We will like to spend this routine every once in a while and now I really want that Capri :)
