Life is fair,afterall :)
So Qazi Tauqeer and Rooprekha win Fame Gurukul (a singing compt on Sony TV). Two people who always went by their heart,didnt indulge in dirty politics when it came to voting out participants and always believed that they could make it. Esp. Qazi - the underdog. Right from the beginning,his peers thought he didnt deserve to be there.He always maintained that he had the passion and will to succeed and held nothing against his peers for thinking bad about him.
And the bandar becomes the sikander :). I like these kinda success stories,wherein a person comes at the top,beating all odds that were stacked against him.Kudos dude...keep rocking :).
This post on Hirdu's blog aptly sums up the confusion and anxiety of a middle aged life. True,absolutely true.
This world is full of people who cant get out of their "environmental determinism" i.e a state wherein the person blames the environment for his state.Boy,am fed up of coming across such folks. They cant let go of their past,everything that is happening to them today is coz of someone else and someone else is to be blamed for it.
In the midst of such chaps,one comes across someone like Allwin Agnel , the brain behind India's largest MBA Portal - www.pagalguy.com. He also runs a one of Asia's leading web hosting companies,is an M.Com looking forward to the erstwhile MBA degree,has had calls from Said Business School,University of Oxford. He has been covered by CNBC,leading business magazines and is also responsible for the bringing together people for community service across major cities in India.And all this while he's still at 24.
Whenever I feel low,I talk to him.He exuberates such maturity and his simple talk hits u in your face. He's someone who takes responsibility of his life,his decisions and their outcomes. He knows where he's going coz he's sure of himself.It's not that he had it all easy.There was a time when he came close to shutting down pg.com .
He slogs like a mad man.He has insane working hours. He has created a platform for thousands to come together and share their lives.And all this without charging a penny. PG.com might soon become a paid site,but it's worth it for all that it does for its members. My blogroll, for instance, has 90% of members from PG.com. He once told me,"I want to create something bigger than myself." He's living his dreams,not cribbing and blaming life/others for his state.
I aint writing this for Allwin.He doesnt need it,nor does he visit my blog.
But Allwin dude,incase someone decides to make a documentary on you few years down the line,I wanna direct it. :)
