Aaj Ki Aawaz

Nitish has given sops to Bollywood… and to Multiplexes to be set up in Bihar,
But lawlessness kar rahi hai mar!!

Nitish may reduce the tax on tickets…. but ticket less rule the roost,
First needs to do something to give ticket sales a boost???

And don't need to tell you what the lawless will do to the Multiplex's,
And mind you the lawless belong to both sexes!!!

So Nitish Ji first strengthen the law and order position,
At present Bihar does not have the right investment safety and return composition!!!

Computer Centre where Raddi had her Dairy….Nitish's making the right moves,
Bytes taking over from hooves!!!!

Amar Singh's bro says that Amar was the MD in UP but abh ho gayaa hai demote,
Is now Director Finance…. and now in Mulayam's son and bro's hand is the remote!!!

Actually now Mulayam is not even DF…. he's Director Business Promotion,
So in fact he's been handed out double demotion!!!

In fact Amar Singh is now Big B's unofficial Secretary….. salary is in kind,
Stays in the limelight so that he can be public ka mind!!!

Otherwise but for Big B Amar is out of publicity ka glare,
And for Amar this is very difficult to bare!!

Amrinder says that Baba ( old man - Badal) speaks as instructed by his beta,
But Mota (Amrinder) does joh Chahal hai bolta aur detaa!!!

Now the ORG Survey has turned out to be a publicity stunt…Amrinder has egg on his face,
Fact is Congress is way back in the race!!!!

He's trying to do what he did during the last election… hype about a landslide,
Trying to take the electorate for a ride!!!!

Fact is that if he's resorting to the same trick means he feels Congress is loosing,
And towards victory Akalis are cruising!!!

CD or is it actually Seedy……. seems Indian Political scene is being broomed,
And Politicians in ethics are being groomed!!!

And CD's aka Seedy's could also be used to settle scores…. tit for tat,
On each other Politicians may use Seedy CD's to rat!!!

Now they say behind Joshi's CD is Uma's hand…. Uma strikes back,
Say she was gleeful jabh she got news ke Joshi ho gayaa from RSS sack!!!

What will Uma do after she completes her 'ram and roti' yatra… she going to Delhi??
And first aim of hers is that everyday she's going to be on the telly!!!

And if she doesn't get a response she's going to go on a Desh ki Chetna yaatra,
Her way to ensure that on her political career there will not be full stop ki maatra!!!

Now they say reshuffle will take place after January 14, 2006… they say it's for sure,
Up to a limit politicians they can scare or lure!!!

But this is for sure when it happens its going to be a total overhaul,
And some of the Mantris are going to get Congress Party mein recall!!

Hulka Fulka

Big B went to pay his thanks to Lord Tirupathi…. when will he thank his fans???
Or will take advise of his brat and enforce on his fans and Media bans!!!

They did prateeksha outside Leelavati and prayed for him… bhool gaya kyaa???
Now at present is preparing for a jalsaa at Jalsaa…to ring in saal nayaa!!

Anil is jetting him around….. are the shareholders footing the tab indirectly???
Or is Big B or Anil footing the Bill directly!!!

Sonia is off to Mauritius with her bambinos for nayaa saal,
Nayaa Saal has meaning only for those who have maal!!!

For the ordinary what's there to celebrate…. same old woes???
Very few highs but mostly despairing lows!!!

Tipplers song:

In the evenings I want to feel frisky,
So I drink Whisky.

During the day whisky does me in,
So I turn to Vodka or gin.

When from hard drinks I want to change gear ,
I turn to beer.

When I have to drink and dine,
I turn to wine!!

Booze is good for us …. read Madhushaala,
And that is why it's prescribed and taught in many a Paathshaala!!!

Well if booze was that good would have been taken to do bhakthi,
But this is not done because you cannot do bhakthi under booze ki shakthi!!!

'Shaitaani ka paani' is another name for booze,
Your senses and conscience you loose!!!

So please do not listen to what Bachchan Senior says in Madhushaala,
Madhushaala should be renamed Zeharila-naala!!

(Off to a pilgrimage so will see you after the New Year)

Happy Nayaa Saal,
With Good Health, spirituality, prosperity and happiness may he make you malaa maal !
