The Summer of 2010

Its a rapid transition of the season. Winter has disappeared (it was not actually fully there) and with the onset of March, the sun has started to take some serious activity. And finally when it goes there to the full fledged summer season, the mercury level will refuse to come down. Boy, Lalit Modi too had this in mind & thus this year he scheduled the IPL a bit earlier this year to compensate the extended schedule in summer. There can be no more praises of this IPL thing in this blog here. Last year I had dedicated one full blog to this IPL stuff & it has ribbed once again my writing prowess. I won't divulge facts about already knowns facts of this IPL. Its fantabulous and everyone knows this. Its the greatest source of timepass assured for the next couple of months with even the ladies in town discussing hot topics & players of the IPL. Good news about this year is that the IPL is being played in India unlike last year where somehow there was a general feeling of discontenment among the crowd for the foreign venue. Bad news for the TV channels other the SetMax. Think what else they can telecast during this period of IPL fever? Nothing but stories and updates of IPL. Browsing through the famous channels will only assure you, the breaking news of IPL story, with headlines flashing every second about an injury to knee of Harbhajan Singh, or the sweet lady Shilpa shetty dancing in joy at the sixing strokes played by Yousuf Pathan. Or the internet world sharing the latest updates from the blogs the fakeIPLplayer. Boy boy too much stuff this is.
Sure the other soap TV channels will not mind much when they can plot fascinating stories of their own to attract TRP. To tell you the truth, I was taken by surprise when I saw the little girl from the serial "Balika Badhu" in headlines stories of her being hospitalized and how the news channel were begging the fellow Indians to pray for her life. Man, me and my roomate were taken aback. We couldn't comprehend what & how utterly tragedy had gripped the little child in real life and we were clueless. Now next moment it was a matter of shame & disgust. To our agony and distrust, the news channel were only telecasting the scripted story of the serial  itlsef in reel life. Never did I feel so disgusting about these news channels. I thought they hyped real stories, but they were way too ahead of my apprehensions. I couldn't have beleived what the hell is being telecasted. My roommate Raghu was equi-vocally all too ashamed & flattered. 'Worst' was the only simple word he used to describe it and I could utterly comprehend how much resentment he had about such scripted headlines and worthless news channels. Indian can digest anything and that could be the only reason the channels break any stuff to make it into breaking headlines. I wish I could break those heads.
No wonder they can even telecast stories like Anandi the girl from Balika Badhu, buying an IPL team, or may be even playing for one team. You never know these news channels. God help all those fellow Indians who enjoy such stuff from so-called healthy news reporters. No more discussing this stuff. Its getting into my head way too much & I dont have intentions to allow my disinterest take control over me. 
Right now, things at the personal front has not taken any improvement stages as yet. Still struggling to get to the terms of changed life. I feel it was like a dream when I got married and suddenly I woke up, finding my life same like when I was a bachelor. I have decided, things have to be set to proper frame & I have vowed I wont let it delay much. But for time being again, atleast for few days, I need to wait and watch. Its said that patience is the key to success and right now I am beleiving just that.
