Silence of the Lambs........


Have you ever seen lambs in the slaughter houses???

No? ok then i must tell you that if you have to figure out the
tension, agony, pain, fear among them then look into eye of one
of them.................Everything is self explanatory there.

hmmmmm, why am i talking about Lambs, well i am just trying to
compare lambs with humans.

I am placement co-ordinator for the batch 09-11 and this is what
i find in the fag end of day when results are ought to come & all
aspirants sit, stand, totter like lambs.

i won't say that they have pain, agony, fear in their eyes but yes,
FF is there.........Fear of Failure...!!!

Look what they do.......

1. keep their fingers crossed...in anticipation of some luck which
can give them much sought after result.

2. Try to talk about anything which can keep them aloof of the proceedings
but somewhere in the back of their mind, RESULTs keep revolving.

3. Keep sitting, standing in a certain position which they feel, can bring in
some luck....it reminded me of sachin tendulkar who is famous for his chair where
he glues himself up in tense situation of the match, in order to find some luck for
the players on the ground.

4. Even few see towards the door of fortune which encloses the HR people......!!!!

seriously a tense situation, which is followed by cheer from 1 or 2 among them
and.........

and....a mild smile, a half-hearted hug to the selected people!!!

and....little wet eyes which are contradicted by smile over the face..(a tough smile
which is hard to keep)...

and an outburst in the wash room with tears in the eyes!!!!

So near Yet so Far.....!!!

And what is there for me??

certainly a happiness for those who get through & little pain for those who miss out
in the fray.

As it was said in the movie, Veer-Zara, that "kaidi ka koi naam nahi hota, hota hai to sirf number" means a prisoner doesnt have name, he only has number"...

In the same way, For a placement cordinator, a selected student is just a number,
no emotions is attached with him/her atleast at that point of time.

a number which keep getting down.........like 45 left, 44 left n so on....!!!

As the days are passing the pressure is mounting, this is end of November when i am
writing this with absolutely no ray of hope in the tunnel atleast for myself...

Student tend to forget that a placement co-ordinator is also an student n he is equally eager for his/her job. They are blamed for all sorts of things which are
not in their hands. they are accused of many things which they themselves aren't
aware of......

But the only thing which keeps us driving is the cause for which everybody joined hands & planned a happy ending to the MBA programme.

In immortals of Meluha, a book written by Ameesh Tripathi, Shiva keeps his life aside for a good cause which will keep out of denger"............true feeling.

you know when you are given responsibility, then you want it or not, you rise ahead of your personal desires and there is a holistic feel..........

Thanx to placecom for giving me little tough ground to work, which enabled me to think beyond myself and seriously thanx to people there who keep raising the bars & motivating a selfish guy to work for others....others include many people whom i can manhandle if given a chance........ :P joking yaar!!

chalo now, need to wind it up.............

"Silence kills"

therefore,
"silence of the lambs should not stay long,
i wish to see roar of victory around me"

Amen!!!

China's peace flag!!

China bullies India amidst tour of Minister of Defence (MoD) A K Antony to China. I'm still to understand the mindset of Govt Of India when it comes to talk of bilateral n strategic relations with China, Pakistan, Bangladesh.... This is my take on the issue when #China is making mockery of Indian peace initiatives!!

Part-II :This is not what i wanted

“No,no don’t do this!!! It was a full throttle scream which came from behind, I turned back, it was my boss there. No this is not your destiny,you cant leave the battleground without fighting, atleast not like this.Mark my words " Life is bowl of colours, its upto you to choose your colour...........CHOOSE IT"!!! “But I am fed up of all this, its been 3 months since am suffering each day, there hasn’t been a single mint when I have felt good, felt as if my life is worth living. I am dying everyday, every moment from inside, now I feel it’s the time! “ I told him with tears in my eyes. Boss came closer, put his hand over my shoulder said me to come to his cabin. Time 6:30 pm Place: South corner, Floor 1, Videocon Tower, Jhandewalan Extension, New Delhi I was surprised to see a pizza box with my favourte drink on the table. Unbelievable, this cant be him. He offered me the stuffs and asked,”were you serious? Or just oozing out your frustration?” certainly it was a...

Wrath of The Titans

History repeats itself.........a very old proverb but is still relevant in these times. I have become a movie freak in Chennai with a movie in my list every Saturday, but to my surprise the movies i went for so far were not only good but also restored my faith in Hindi movies. Thanks to solo brilliance from Irrfaan in PAAN SINGH TOMAR and Vidya Balan in KAHAANI.., awesome acting, editing, screenplay and most important, the soul of movie didn't shift into non-sense mathematics of commercial cinema. And this weekend, it was one of my old buddy "TITANS", about whom i had, had a very nasty time back in 2010. Over the same platform of Point Blank, i had to pour my frustration after watching the dead "Clash of the Titans". Lets start with the background : I planned to watch this movie coz of 2 reasons: 1. Big canvas movie in 3D 2. To quench my thirst for some jaw dropping effects. therefore, i went to Escape in Express Avenue Mall, the only place to hangou...
