Kailash Kher has come up with his new album Kailasa and here is my favorite track from the album.
Title: Teri Deewani
Album: Kailasa
Artist: Kailash Kher
Preet ki lat mohe aisi laagi,
Ho gayi main matwaari,
Bal bal jaon apne piya ko,
Hey main jaon wari wari …Mohe sudh budh nahi rahi tan man ki,
Ye toh jaane duniya saari,
Bebas aur lachaar phiru main,
Haari main dil haari,
Haari main dil haariTere naam se jeelon, tere naam se mar jaon,
Tere naam se jeelon, tere naam se mar jaon,
Tere jaan ke sadke main kuch aisa kar jaon,
Tune kya kar daala,
Mar gayi main,
Mit gayi main,
Ho ji, haan ji,
Ho gayi main,
Teri deewani, deewani (2)Tune kya kar daala,
Mar gayi main,
Mit gayi main,
Ho ji, haan ji,
Ho gayi main,
Teri deewani, deewani (2)Ishq junoon jab had se badh jaye,
Ishq junoon jab had se badh jaye,
Haste haste aashiq sooli chadh jaye,
Ishq ka jadoo sar chadhkar bole,
Ishq ka jadoo sar chadhkar bole,
Khoob lagalo pehre raste rab khole,
Yahi ishq di marzi hain,
Yahi rab di marzi hain,Yahi ishq di marzi hain,
Yahi rab di marzi hain,
Tere bin jina kaisa,
Haan khudgarzi hai,Tune kya kar daala,
Mar gayi main,
Mit gayi main,
Ho ji, haan ji,
Ho gayi main,
Teri deewani, deewani (2)Aye main rang rangeeli deewani,
Aye main rang rangeeli deewani,
Aye main albeli, main mastaani,
Gaon bajaaon, sabko rijhaon,
Aye main hoon dharam se begaani,
Aye main deewani main deewani,Tere naam se jeelon, tere naam se mar jaon,
Tere naam se jeelon, tere naam se mar jaon,
Tere jaan ke sadke main kuch aisa kar jaon,
Tune kya kar daala,
Mar gayi main,
Mit gayi main,
Ho ji, haan ji,
Ho gayi main,
Teri deewani, deewani (2)
There is only one comment for this song. Awesome. Period.
Pulikat Lake is about 80 KMs from Chennai. After you reach the shore, you have to take a boat ride for two hours to reach the mouth of the ocean.
The first almost virgin beach I have ever seen. The sand, water, sky were as clear as they can get. It dint even have a single shack, stall or shop where we could buy water or food.

Question: Come up with BTL strategies for Nail Polish Removers
Answers
1.
A lady is sitting in a busy mall with a bucket full of water and a collection of chemicals. She is trying to remove her nail polish and no matter what she does, the color wont go. She then calls other ladies in the mall to help her remove the nail polish.
This would be replicated in malls, at bus-stops, in book stores, ono busy crossings etc.
2.
A keyboard and mouse is kept with nail polish stains on the top. Text would say “need to remove nail color?”
3.
Neutral colored stickers in the shape of nails would be distributed to ladies. The stickers would be accompanied with a note saying “removing nail polish is as easy as putting these on.
Ideas, comments, criticism welcome !!!!
Got this from 24 and in my humble opinion … this is one of the best print ads I have come across …
Its been a long time since I have been thinking about a career in advertising … I know I wont be any good but I want one shot at it. Was reading things related to advertisements when I came across yet another new concept in advertising … Billboards on Virtual Earth. They place virtual billboards on Google Earth and Virtual Earth.
We have seen ads everywhere ..
In the movies … starting with Forrest Gump to Cast Away to The Truman Show
In homes … Hangars, Carry Bags
In shops … well loads of them
On roads … billboards, traffic lights etc
On products … logos, punch lines
On internet … banner ads, pop ups, minisites
On email … like this one
On software … DAP, Web Accelerators etc
On blogs … 🙂
Its everywhere. Add to the list Google Earth.
BrightGIS is offering spaces on Google Earth, ofcourse for a fee. Awesome concept .. !!!!
P.S.: Got this story from http://adverlab.blogspot.com/index.html. This is a very good resource for people interested in adverts.
I had to contact my friend for something urgent.
I tried talking to him … he dint give me an answer.
I tried calling him on his cell … he dint pick it up.
I tried emailing him … he REPLIED.
Now its about mailing. Real contacts happen on emails !!!!
Got this from GapingVoid.com
I once bought something from the office canteen and I was given the change in coins. One 1-rupee coin, 2 50-paisa coins and 4 25-paisa coins. Yes you read it right, a 25-paisa coin. I could not remember where I had seen it last. In Delhi, the rupee has lost its value. There aren’t many things that you can buy with a rupee there. Even beggars ask for 5 bucks now-a-days. I am sure Chennai is the only place in India where they still use a 25-paisa coin. I seriously want to know what happened to all those 10-paisa and 5-paisa coins that were minted in large numbers and is there a place where they still use them.
Since this is something that my grandchildren would never see (I am sure they won’t study), I think I ought stock a few to show it to them. I can understand that even a lot of us (people in my generation) wouldn’t have seen a 25-paisa coin. Actually it’s history repeating itself. Most of us would not have seen an anna and I am talking about the next generation missing the 25-paisa coin.
For the benefit of my generation, I shall try to describe it. The coin is … as expected … round in shape with exactly two faces. It has a silvery, steely finish and I bet is could stick to a magnet. One of the faces has got a Rhino on it and the other face has 25 written over most of it. It also has the Indian National Emblem on it. A pic of 25-paisa coin is here. It is smaller in size than a 5-rupee coin and is good to hold. It is slightly bigger than an average shirt button.
And while writing this, I was googling for things and I found the following links …
1. Track Gandhi – I have registered all my notes and wow is this fun and this is an awesome idea as well. I think I will talk to these guys and do something about it.
2. Indian Currency on Wikipedia – Details about Indian Currency.
