Anything for you ma'am [Tushar Raheja]

There were many reasons..due to which i picked up this book Anything for you ma'am from the library..

*Firstly..The title itself..Anything for you ma'am
 An IITian love story*
*Secondly..the writer..
Tushar Raheja..*
you actually expect me..to keep this book back..on the shelf..after looking at this name..??
*And..thirdly..it was a recommendation by a friend standing nearby*

Genre : fiction,comedy,romance

the book :

Tushar, a fourth year student, has written in his book about a Delhi-based boy Tejas who happens to be an IIT student and how he goes across the length of the country to Chennai to meet his love Shreya. He says that you know you are in love when you follow your heart and do anything that your heart commands you to do. In his first book `Anything For You Ma'am' he talks about the kind of hardships one has to face to meet his/her love. He says he has penned down the story in such a way that it would attract the reader..and indeed..it did.The magic is everywhere i turn my eyes.

In short..Its a story of a boy and a girl, their love, their hopes and despair afcourse, a story of small joys and big blunders. Yes, "Anything For You Ma'am" is a story of what a person would do for his/her love..and is a must read.

Age factor:

you wont believe..what i was discussing with one of my friends who has read this book..i said..whenever ill have a kid..after my marriage afcourse..the first thing thats likely to happen is..ill make him read this book..hehehehhe..why im sharing this is bacause..this book has no age limit..any kiddie..any granny..or anyone..you re happen to fall in tushar's lovely style of writing..it just..says so much yet nothing...

Gifting ideas:

Honestly..the word i want to use is perfect..just 100 bucks it costs..but gives you a memory worth lifetime..I even know..friends like Alvia..who had bought this book,to gift someone..but felt in love with this book..and she still has a tiny space in his heart..which says again and again..*read me again and again..and again*

Thought for the day:

There is a great deal of difference between an eager man who wants to read a book and a tired man who wants a book to read.

I read that book, and it isn't very great.
Since it came after Chetan Bhagat's, the novelty was absent.
It was also a sort of amateur attempt. Not written well.

Epitome of Equality

First of all This is not to demean any religion.. I am a Hindu by birth, but yes I respect all religions .I offer my daily prayers , fast on holy days , but there was something that was disturbing me . God as per me was a Friend, someone who was by my side always , someone who was a dear friend , but this is not what everyone else thought , for others he was the Judge who gives his verdict always and punishes anyone and everyone . Walk into any temple and you would see , if you have money , you will be treated in a way as if you are the ONLY disciple of the God . I have had too many experiences where I was treated as a second class citizen in the temple . Why? Well I could not afford giving thousands as donation. This is not how it should be , God looks at each one of us with the same divinity .As I mentioned God for me is a friend, so tell me, do we chose friends based on their bank balances? Do we give our verdict on them ? then how can God do it? I know many of us would ...

"My cousin touched me there"

Note: When Tan suggested me to post this here...I gave it a thought. I felt he was right.  yeha I know in the election times ..people would be more inclined to politics. Well still..just give it a read :) For the first time when she came in I knew she is going to be one of my best pals. she was bubbly chirpy sociable and a caring human being.she was I felt my true copy. But what I felt wasn't true and I'd never known that trait of hers which never matched mine had such a reason behind it. She never liked to talk or be familiar to the opposite sex. I found this irritating but I just used to remember all her other traits which brought her close to me and made her one of the closest beings to me on this Earth. As she and I had got very close in friendship that we began sharing secrets which we never thought would come out of our mind. And I thought I understood her as I thought she was me. Then one day as we were alone in my room I asked her why she was so unfamiliar and irritat...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...
