Slumdog millionaire



Download the Golden Globe award winning Slumdog Millionaire songs composed by A R Rahman


Director Danny Boyle wanted to include MIA's Paper Planes from early on in production on the score, which appears along with an original track Rahman composed, "O...Saya," featuring the artist. M.I.A., who Rahman described as a "powerhouse" gave brief film notes on some scenes to Boyle upon request during editing. Rahman's score won a 2008 Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score. Song Aaja Aaja was composed for film Yuvraj by A R Rahman and lyricist Gulzar but was not used for that and given to Danny Boyle by the movie producer Subhash Ghai who also gave rights to Choli Ke Peeche from his film Khalnayak to be remade as Ringa Ringa.

Seven Point Someone

Well you have heard five point someone...now you are wondering what this seven point someone is..I am the seven point someone!!!Actually 7.6 point someone..(my aggregate is 76%)

When I was reading Chetan Bhagat's Five Point Someone....all through the book...I can relate almost every page of the book to my life(though I am not an IITian). I dont know which character represents me...Hari or Ryan or Alok.May be, I am a blend of all these characters...I am dumb during the VIVAs just like Hari,some times I am cool like Ryan and some times I am worried about my studies & career like Alok.So,I guess I am all the three!But, I love Ryan among the three and his weird & stupid ideas...my favourite being C2D(Cooperate To Dominate)!


Just like the IITians in 5 point someone,we have got assignments,surprise tests, stupid labs and a very tough & tight schedule.

And of course, we share our assignments just like them...one student breaks his/her back writing the assignment on his/her own and then all the others just copy+paste it into their assignment books!

Surprise tests(actually, they are shock tests)...its a team work! C2D...we share our ideas and these ideas change our life...we are given assignments again as our professor finds our ideas dumb.But our weird ideas are some times good, at least according to me!!


As I am an ECE student, I have got the toughest labs(at least tougher than the CSE & IT labs).Damn the VIVA where our professors become the crouching tigers and we,the students become the hidden dragons.{"A fool can ask more questions that a wise man cant answer". So there is no wonder that we are speechless during the VIVA:)}


Coming to our schedule, minimum 75% attendance is necessary for you to get promoted to next semister.Thanks to the proxy! And of course , we have got our age old excuses..."request to grant attendance as I am severely ill"!!


Though I have got no guts to steal the question papers right from my HOD's office(like the 5 pointers), I am facing a situation more or less similar to the DIS-CO(Discipline Committee)! Till now I have neglected my studies(Ryan's character was dominant in me all these days!).Now due to the economic recession, campus placements are a distant dream in my 3-2.Added to this is the fall of the Satyam reign,which has been one of the major recruiter of our college students.Gone are the days,where an average student(like me) could easily find an entry to major IT companies.As the IT sector is now not ready to waste their money and time on training the freshers, it is searching for students who can start working on the projects right on their first day in the office!

Now all these realizations hit my lazy brain out of the blue! Well, I cant change the past..but definitely, I dont want my future to repeat my past.

So, I am trying to focus(at least now in the third year) on my studies just like the 5 pointers who work sincerely towards their career in their final year!

The climax of the 5 point someone was an happy ending...lets wait and see whats going to be the climax of my college life--- "7 point someone"!!

Life screws you just when you think, you have figured it out!!!

Amazing business case..

The business executive was deep in debt and could see no way out.

Creditors were closing in on him. Suppliers were demanding payment. He sat on the park bench, head in hands, wondering if anything could save his company from bankruptcy.

Suddenly an old man appeared before him. "I can see that something is troubling you," he said.

After listening to the executive's woes, the old man said, "I believe I can help you."

He asked the man his name, wrote out a check, and pushed it into his hand saying, "Take this money. Meet me here exactly one year from today, and you can pay me back at that time."

Then he turned and disappeared as quickly as he had come.

The business executive saw in his hand a check for $500,000, signed by John D. Rockefeller, then one of the richest men in the world!

"I can erase my money worries in an instant!" he realized. But instead, the executive decided to put the uncashed check in his safe. Just knowing it was there might give him the strength to work out a way to save his business, he thought.

With renewed optimism, he negotiated better deals and extended terms of payment. He closed several big sales. Within a few months, he was out of debt and making money once again.

Exactly one year later, he returned to the park with the uncashed check. At the agreed-upon time, the old man appeared. But just as the executive was about to hand back the check and share his success story, a nurse came running up and grabbed the old man.

"I'm so glad I caught him!" she cried. "I hope he hasn't been bothering you. He's always escaping from the rest home and telling people he's John D. Rockefeller. "

And she led the old man away by the arm.

The astonished executive just stood there, stunned. All year long he'd been wheeling and dealing, buying and selling, convinced he had half a million dollars behind him.

Suddenly,
he realized that it wasn't the money, real or imagined, that had turned his life around. It was his newfound self-confidence that gave him the power to achieve anything he went after.
