The Last on DD ...fr the timebeing...

As some of my friends who read this(per force i pestered them to do so!) cause i am the only one who is idle not others...pointed out the major misses the posts had let me try to put in some more...as much as i can remember...

Byomkesh Bakshi our very own answer to Sherlock..how the hell did i miss it...he was the most stylish detective i hav seen..the crisp white dhoti and the kurta,with his pleasing personality(kudos to Rajat Kapoor for it) playing and bringing to life the detective created by Saratendu Bhandopadhya.Some of the episods ingrained in the mind are that of The tarantula poison,picture imperfect,and the one starring nandulaal babu.Also Ajit and buti ram(or was it with a k)the plots were fantabulous...Recently Rupa has brought out a collection of stories in english(the 1 st of its kind i suppose) Enjoyed the book just as much i used to enjoy it in the tv.

Then there was Potli baba ki,Gul Gulshan Gulfaam(Virendra Razdaan of Vidur fame) aur fir there were those which i don't remember much cause i was too small to see and understand them..like Humlog,buniya,doosra keval.But i remember Fauji and Circus srk's tryst with destiny!What else ...let me see...indradhanush,Spirit of unity concert (UNITY IN DIVERSITY) , RANGOLI,dekh bhai dekh and zaban sambhal ke(koi shindi koi parsee koi rusi to koi arbi,koi british raaj ka writer ko madrasi abhinetri,koi ...koi contractor mil ke bole ka kha ja sabke maan mein hai abhilasha milkey sheekehy Hindi bhasha....par na don't make tamasha..Pankaj Kapoor is still amazing...)..also In Conversation with Rajeev Mehrothra,tThe World This Week,Gillete World Sport special....actually there r too many i don't think i can do any justice...all of them touched indians in some way or the other....i find many people writting about these..i hav not added any thing new but still felt like writting...

THOSE WERE TRUELY BEAUTIFUL TIMES........
