Euro Trip - Part 2 Pariiiii

We took the Etihad Airways Flight and reached Paris Airport at around 2:30 p.m. And the pre booked cab was not there. I think you don’t need the pre-booked cab to reach where ever you want to reach. There is a good Metro Connectivity and even if you have enough luggage then also it is very comfortable to travel inside the city. Here is a quick tip for you guys don’t ever travel more than one check in bag and one hand bag for what so ever travel duration you have. You should only be carrying some snacks and some clothes. Don’t overburden yourself too much. You will be able to find good clothes everywhere at not so costly price and anyway there no one cares what you are wearing unless you are going to places which has a dress code. If you want to take a cab then it will cost you around 45 Euros and the pre booked cab took us more money than this. We were staying a bit far north side in the quaint town of MontMarte so it took us around 40 mins to reach there else if you are staying in the central part of the Paris then it will be much faster and easier. If you want to take the public transport then there is a metro called as RER which is having different colored lines. And the metro stations are marked in a very well defined fashion. The Tickets are also very cheap. If you know that in one day you are going to travel greater than 4 times in the metro then buy the day pass costing around 11.2 Euros which will be cheaper than buying one side metro ticket for every travel. The website http://parisbytrain.com/paris-metro/ has all the information. All you need is a sim card having good internet package. Coming to the Telecom vendors in Europe there are few Matrix, Orange, Lyca etc. out of all these, people think that Lyca is cheap which it is, but do not buy it from store Owned by immigrant people. They will take good amount of money and for no good. There is no SIM which runs in all over Schengen Countries. Anyone who is telling you that one sim card will work in all the countries then he is telling the truth but what he is hiding from you is the fact that there are huge roaming charges and you won’t be able to utilize any sim card from one country to another. Therefore it is much better to buy SIM card in every country you visit. Trust me it is not at all difficult to buy SIM card. Lyca stores are there at many places. At paris airport there is none, there is an option of buying SIM card with calling facility and without it. We bought it with calling facility and it was of no use. It costed us 30 euros and another SIM which was having only internet costed us 20 Euros, we were definitely conned by the Bangladeshi guy in MontMarte. He will definitely ask you your passport number and will officially register you on Lyca website, if he is not doing that then he is not doing it right. On Paris Airport there is no Wi-Fi, the only place is McDonalds. You don’t need to buy anything from there to use it. Just sit outside and it will connect automatically and you can easily browse and find your way. At Bangalore airport also you will find the Matrix store in which they are selling pre activated SIM cards but then no use, they are much more expensive.

Finally after an hour we found our driver and we reached our Hotel Gaston. This hotel is very beautiful and creative. The downside is the size of the rooms. The rooms are very small. The breakfast is just fine. If you are going on honeymoon and you want to experience the serenity of the city then do come here and stay. The staff is very courteous and helpful. The check in was smooth and the free WiFi is really nice.

We just searched Moulin Rouge and went on foot to explore the town and really loved the place. We enjoyed the street music and clicked pictures near Moulin Rouge and other stores nearby and came back.

The daylight will be there till 10:30 p.m. so not to worry. Paris is not safe post-midnight so make sure you reach back before that.

Next Day we had Louvre museum tour. Our tour company got the tickets delivered to our Hotel on the day before. The ticket didn’t have time on it. We decided to take a Free Tour through Sandmans (http://www.neweuropetours.eu/paris/en/home ) and once they reach Louvre museum cordially end the tour for you with some tip. They start just at the Fountain, St. Michael and lot of people take this tour and all the guides are good.

They work on tips so you might end up paying them 5-10 euros. We took the tour and he showed us lot of things like Notre Dame Museum, the outside wall of Louvre Museum, Latin Quarters, Petit Palai (from outside) and many more stories about how Paris has developed over the years.

We finally entered Louvre museum at 1:30 p.m. Which is actually very late for such a big place. We missed the 10 a.m. tour that is why wasted an hour of our time there at fountain but if you want to do the free tour and Louvre on the same day then reach at the fountain at 9:50 sharp.

The Louvre museum is magnificent and a experience in itself to explore. There are restaurants and café inside it, a bit on the expensive side but then it is good to eat regularly and eat and drink to roam around such a place.

There is a Louvre museum app also but then do not buy, it is useless and not handy also during the tour.

You can buy an Audio Guide or roam around yourself. Even if you do not take you will be walking around that place for hours and still you will find yourself so busy.

The museum closes at around 6:30 p.m. and then you can find yourself eating a nice meal at either McDonalds or there are many restaurants to eat.

Next Day we had our morning free so we went to the church in MontMarte where you will find a very nice view of the whole city and the church is so amazing. The street leading to the church are so lively and beautiful that you will want to spend the whole day there. We came back by evening and got ready for the gala event of the evening – The LIDO Show.

It is my strong suggestion that you do watch LIDO show, it is a visual treat for everyone. The welcome, the stage, the performers, the story everything is so fairy tale that you will fall in love with each and every moment. You can book your tickets online through their website through your pre-paid card of HDFC. We had a poor experience with the card but then it is as equally bad as any other bank but cheaper. Quick Tip would be to have cash of around 70 euros for each and every day if you are not a luxurious traveler and some 500 euros in your card. The card conversion was 4rs. Per euro than the card. The card was also not pin protected therefore my suggestion to have cash in hand less in card. We took the option of Champagne and Show but then you should take dinner plus the show as it will not cost much extra and you will get better seats and you can enjoy the whole show eating and drinking. Though when you are watching the show you will not want to take away your eyes off for even a min.

Next Day we had Versailles tour. We were actually a bit late so booked an UBER till the meeting point. To our surprise UBER was less costly than the Taxis and just a bit more expensive than the metro. So you can actually delete the app from here and have a backup Gmail ID created. Once you reach there you can actually register again and enjoy your first free ride and refer to your friend and enjoy one more. The Versailles tour guide Jack was simply amazing. He told us the facts in a very interesting way rather than just telling us the year in which the Loui XV was born and died. The gardens are actually very so he took us to the gardens first and then dropped us of at the entrance of the palace with audio guides and a train ticket back to Paris. Versailles is like 15 km away from Central Paris but then the metro is easier to travel and much faster.

On the same evening we had the Eiffel Tower and Siene Cruise Tour through Julia Travels. To our surprise we also had the bus tour which is useless. You should only take the boat ride and Eiffel tower tickets if you are booking through any Travel Agent.

In case if have not booked through a travel agent then also you can just go their office and buy the ticket. The cruise is just fine, if you have seen all the places before taking this tour then good you will be able to connect if not then it will be a pleasant surprise.

Once the boat ride is finished you can enter Eiffel Tower and go to the 2^nd floor or the Top Floor depending on your ticket.

We had 2^nd Floor ticket and the view was amazing but then personally not that impressed with Eiffel Tower Itself.

We came down through stairs and then realized that it was way too high. Every hour they have lighting on the Tower, we saw the 11^th Hours from 2^nd floor and midnight one from the ground. It is nice. Came back through UBER and it was just fine.

Euro Trip - Part 2 Planning

Euro Trip!!! These words in itself are very refreshing and exciting.

We posted our query on TrvaleTriangle.com as this is a platform where they connect the travelers with different companies. The agents can post different itineraries and costing and you can accept or reject based on your liking. If you like someone then you can go ahead with discussion and customize it as per your own convenience. I have already visited Italy and Austria so I didn't want to go to Central Europe and rather explore the western part of it. We can’t lie that we were not influenced by ‘Zindagi na Milegi Dubara’ and lately with ‘Befikre’ (more or less because we did want to Paris the most romantic city in the world) so we chose France and Spain for our honeymoon. We were also thinking of Switzerland for its natural beauty but mostly the packages are with Italy which was excluded from our plan already. PickYourTrail was the one who seemed very promising out of all the posts we got, to be very frank, rest all of them were not good at all. We along with our travel agent put out the itinerary and our preferences were not to have too many evenings at leisure.

So following is my itinerary without the praise of the places which is actually not required:

25th May: [Flight to Paris] Board your flight up to the French Capital Land into Paris's CDG International Airport and get transferred to your accommodation.

26th May: [Louvre museum - Priority Admissions]

27th May: Lido Show

28th May: [Skip-the-Line Tour of Versailles with Roundtrip Transport] and [Eiffel Tower visit with Seine cruise and Paris night Trail] 

29th May: [Fly to Barcelona] Post breakfast check out of your hotel and take your Afternoon flight to Barcelona. [Flamenco Show at Palacio del Flamenco]

30th May: [Montserrat Monastery Tour from Barcelona Including Cogwheel Train Ride]

31st May: [Park Güell & La Sagrada Família Trail]

1st June: [Bus to Costa Brava]

2nd June: [Day at leisure for Scuba diving]

3rd June: [Train to Madrid] in the morning, checkout of your hotel and board your train to Madrid. On arrival, transfer to your hotel and check in.

4th June: [Toledo tour with lunch]

5th June: [Departure]

We didn’t go to Disneyland as we heard that until you are a big fan and follow the latest cartoons then only you will be able to connect with the whole place else it will turn out to be a boring thing after couple of hours. Therefore we cancelled it and booked Lido Show instead and let me tell you it was a nice suggestion by my friend and glad we decided to do that.

They have charged me 2.96L for the whole package and following is the breakup (without the Lido Show Costing):

Transfer	Roundtrip Bus from Barcelona to Costa brava	6000

Total cost including of all Taxes and GST		295408

This is where PickYourTrail did their first mistake. Previously when there was an inclusion of Disneyland and Madrid City Tour the costing was given around 3.2L but when I did the summation it was not coming out to be. This brought a doubt in my mind and came to know about the Taxes and GST. I am not sure I was informed that 9.5% is GST and only other are there charges. As a client if I am getting charged something and PickYourTrail’s USP is that they will the exact breakup of each and everything then they should not keep the client in dark.

Visa: First of all you need to take Schengen Visa from that country for which you are spending most of your days of you the trip. We were investing most number of days in Spain so we had to go for Spain Visa BLS Center for the Visa.

PickYourTrail has the visa assistance for me in the package but then their Visa Assistance is really really bad. Do not trust them. Sadly the page for Schengen Visa is also not that helpful (https://www.schengenvisainfo.com/spain-visa/  ). The documents that you will need are as follows:

1.      Spain Declaration Form/Covering Letter

2.      Spain Authorization Letter

3.      Spain Visa Application

4.      Spain Legal Declaration Form

5.      Passport Size photograph

6.      Hotel Stay Bookings

7.      Travel Tickets (Although the website will say that you don’t need to book the tickets but then when we visited BLS they asked to furnish that)

8.      Bank Statement for last 6 months (have the closing balance of 1Lakh for each  person)

9.      Salary Slip for last 6 months

10.   No Objection Certificate from your Employer (This is actually not required, we went without it and we got the visa but their website says so, so my suggestion take it)

11.   Travel Insurance (should not cost you more than 1000/- for each person)

12.   ITR for last 3 years

13.   Passport Copies of ALL pages (current and old)

The problem is that until you have the whole thing planned out you will have very less number of days. The visa appointment should be taken having at least 1 month of gap between your date of travel and the appointment date. If you have all the documents mentioned above, don’t hesitate you will definitely get the visa.

Tips: Take a morning slot in BLS (for Bangalore you can go to Indiranagar, it is located near the Levis showroom) and take ~5,700/- in cash per person (they take only in cash).

You can get it delivered to your house with some minimal charges or you can produce the receipt to them and personally go and take the passports (any one of the members can go and collect the passports). You don’t need to take any proof of residence, your passport address if it is of Bangalore then it is sufficient to make you eligible for applying in Bangalore BLS or else you might have to go to Chennai or Mumbai.

pal pal raste kehte mujhse

kahe na koi jaise mujhse

bhatak na jaun in rahon mein mujhse

ankhon mein sapne mere mujhse

poore hon kabhi kahe mujhse

mushkil hai vahi safar mera mujhse

nahi ho sakta kisi ko ber mujhse

pal pal ye raste kahe mujhse

Zindagi...

Zindagi...

zindagi ek khushi si...

zindagi ek hansi si...

pal pal satati si...

aur do pal rulati si...

lamhe lamhe mein kehti si...

khuli ankhon se bas sapne dikhati si...

nadan hai sabse vo bas ye ehsas dilati si...

kehti hawaon se kuch majboori si...

gale lagale kisi ko kuch aisi si...

hansti rulati aur gudgudati si...

zindagi ek khushi si...

zindagi ek hansi si...

Maaro Rajasthan

Culture and tradition have intimated us from very long time in the way that how much should the past influence us and how much roots of them are there in our new generation. A lot has been said about the new generation forgetting the values that our parent generation has bestowed upon us. During my recent visit to Rajasthan and especially to Jodhpur, my home town, I realized something that, people still here follow what popularly called as traditional life and what most of the people tag it as backward, a slow life. I was one of the non-fits here. But I noticed in few days is that --



People here still live in homes which are made of lime. People still want to spend their lives living at one place and with one job. For them getting a sweet on the way home is a big achievement and the happiness on the face of their child to see that their father has brought something, it doesn’t matter whether it is of only 10rs, still matters to them. Infact if it is a 100rs thing then they will preserve it for few days and will savor it for few more days. Girls still wear salwar kameej and the ones wearing jeans and tshirts are considered to the modern generation. Girls still don’t go to movies without the permission of their parents and they still brag about one movie be it Baghban or Harry Potter to all there friends and will discuss over lunch tables for many days. Spending 500rs on a dress is still a monthly event. Girls still feel very shy talking about their marriage and hardly can face their father talking about it.

Boys still think that having long hair and a goggle will definitely impress girls, a little do they do even if the girls actually are and if at all they got to talk to them will make guys happier then ever. For mothers cleaning the house will still fill most of their day time. They will cook 5 times a day and if they do eat biscuits and home made “mathri” then it would be a brunch. They would watch the daily soups and imagine their lives to be as dramatic as the characters in the serial are. They eagerly wait for festivals to buy saris to collect it more than 20 years. They still have more then few decades old crockery shining in their closets. They would be so happy to talk to neighbors about how much somebody have spent in their marriages if at all they talk, as mostly they fight with their neighbors in the morning and share a laugh in the evening. Using a computer is still a big deal and a touch phone is still kept in polybags. You can see scooters and no red lights in the city. When it rains people still see water getting collected on the streets. The major event in the city which makes the headline is still the temperature change and donations that have happened for the religious cause. People still enjoy jalebi and kachori more than a burger. Peoples still will give you advice over your medical condition no matter how much do they know about it.



But the way I saw it while leaving the place after few days is that –



People are too much dedicated to their jobs and the company they work in so you can find a loyal employee in every employee you hire. People still enjoy the evening talk and morning tea with lots of friends and talk about life. They don’t need a book to teach them how to make friends and be interesting. They don’t need a newspaper to circulate the local news. They value each and every word that anyone has to say. They listen to them and follow them if they think it is a good advice. Fathers would be proud to have their child getting admitted to an engineering college and the child will equally feel responsible to get good marks and make their parent proud, they hardly care about the pay packages of the job. They don’t have credit limits as they cant imagine spending more than what is already left with them after planning for next 20 years or two generations. Hence recession or no recession they will not be panicked. Girls don’t get hurt because of broken relationships nor do they kill their dream of ideal husband. They would prepare themselves for the man chosen by their father and would love the freedom given by their “to be”. They will do anything to make the man happy and will respect him for whatever principles they have, because deep down their heart they know that he knows the aspirations of a young girl and make a beautiful home out of the bricks and limestone with lots of emotions and care. They would align themselves with the new family and the husband will altogether will take a responsibility not just for her but for every problem that the girls family faces. The respect that a father gets from their girl child will make him protect her and even accept any guy that her daughter chooses to marry. The mothers want to make their child with all the values that her parents have given her during their upbringing to the girl child. People are happy to have girl in their homes and will make sure that they receive a good education. People enjoy every rain with lots of food items and children still dance with a splash of water and a cricket game on every Sunday. People feel touched by receiving an invitation and a vote of thanks from their relatives. Here you can’t die alone to the least die unnoticed.

I love the culture and tradition but most of all the values which fill this place with lots of colors. You can go to any place but you can’t escape your roots and one should not. Everybody has a purpose of their live and it can only be fulfilled if it is attached to your ideals and feeling of togetherness.

Challenge

               Challenge! "jab koi mujhe challenge karta hia to mera khoon khol uthta hai" to say in Ajay Devgans movie from old age 'Hindi cinema'. Well I made it true today by completing one. Travelling through thousands of kilometers I landed in Hyderabad, my brothers home and just as everybody know he is a bachelor so first thing that comes up is the problems associated to it rather than advantages, the biggest one is of good food. Well I took the responsibility of cutting vegetables, of which we Indians are famous for, not so happily to be frank. Today a month has been passed and we were having rice from a very very long time so as to the limit that it seemed like a perennial task of eating it and eternal destiny to make it. But today we decided to break the chain of unending paranoia of good food by making a delicious Paav Bhaaji. I was sure that i am going to play a big role in this, whosoever has made this "dish" will know for certain that it takes more time to cut the vegetable then to cook and to eat combined. My brother challenged that "you can't cut all these vegetables in even an hour" Forget it you are going to waste your whole lot of time". I in my extreme pride went for it, the bet. I accepted with all the dignity and pride that "I will do it in half an hour". But wait what was at stake? Pride? Diginity? Image? No no no no no no no no.
              The thing that is being loved by thousands and adored by millions, Bournville. It was right there in front of us and we shook our hands on it. I sat down there waiting for the time to come to start my peregrination with utmost strength and zest.
At exactly noon my brother flagged me green. I ran and without any help started like Shahrukh Khan of Duplicate to chop peal cut whatever was in front of me. I was constantly being motivated by the distant voices Cut! Cut! Cut! Cut! Cut! Cut!
             Time was running out and I was lagging behind. Time has passed no faster than this. People say if you want to ask the importance of 5 minutes then ask an engineer writing a paper, if you want to ask the importance of a millisecond ask an athlete, if you want to know the importance of millisecond then ask Michael Schumacher but, but if you want to ask the importance of 30minutes than ask me. I was concentrating more than I did in my engineering examinations and it was a time to prove myself to the world that Ankur Singhal is no less than others. May I will get a call from Master Chief Australia, but anyway with 2 minutes still left in the clock I did it and I did it with the sleight of my hand everything was perfectly done and that too in as clean as possible. It is being truly said that you don’t just eat it you have to earn a Bourneville.

"Placement"

              Long await, awfully wanted, terribly desired and eagerly desirous came today. News that make my heart going O LA LA LE LO. Nothing matches with a day full of events and an evening with lots of congratulations and asking for party destinations. I was ready to do anything which makes me do weeeeeeeee. It came finally with a bang and that too struck right in the middle of the bulls’ eye. I was so comfortably numb after a long time of desperate desperation that bliss is not the proper word to quote it. After the grueling experience of going through what can be said as the most haphazard day of my life it was expected to bring joy and happiness. I was not only waiting to write it down on every social networking site proudly but also to tell everybody that I am placed as of now.
             It all started with simple information that TATA CONSULTANCY SERVICES is calling our college to Kota Engineering College for placements this year after a long time. We all pumped ourselves in the middle of our busy schedules of projects and seminars to collect our folders with a smile on our face and formal clothes like an armor to set for the mission of being called as an earning hand of the family and not the dependent one for a change. Tickets were confirmed for the sleeper in V.K.Jain, very interesting story but now is the time to focus. But Mr. Fate as they say it couldn’t control its emotions for me and set me like a free bird. I hired a cab without knowing that the driver is drunk as if he doesn’t want to live again. But I came to know that in a very short period of time when he “accidently” put out the cab on the middle divider and it tilted by a large angle. But I want to live and that too for a long time. I want to grow old with someone and earn a lot of money. Ah well I think I have again diverted from the main topic. So Mr. Fate heard my pledge of being in the existence for a while and the cab came to the grounds safely. On my repeated request the cab driver set me free now safely. We set out for the most happening city in India, Kota, my long term desire of seeing it again after 4 years, Mr. Fate have definitely decided to fulfill my desires I guess. But not so easily bus got late and we had to rush through the winds and make our own path to my friends house and then again to the college where we were informed that the process is not going to start till 11o’ clock. Well there is nothing much that we can do except for waiting. So we waited for our future to be told by someone else which in the corporate world it is called as PPT (pre placement talk). Impressive and convincing at the same time. We were given number for the station for our online examination and luckily I got 007. Yes the license to kill and I did the justice to it. How on earth can I let down Double O Seven. We again waited and that too for a very very long time or may be as it seems at that time as we didn’t see what was stored for us after that.
                       Positive result, and we were happy to say that we at least appeared for interviews. But for our shock we were informed that the interviews are going to be held at the same day and we were not given enough time.
I was tensed and my anxiety was answered shortly with the call for the first round of interview which was technical which I can still not sure went good. Anyway we waited and asked all the questions to everyone coming out the room and concluded that it is either this way or that way. Well it ended and I don’t have any idea how. So again we waited for our calls and surprisingly my call came early but how would I know the future. I was made to sit for 4.5 hours outside the room or HR Head making me believes that I will be shortly called for interviews. Girls were given preferences and people from other colleges were given preferences before me. I was not optimistic at that time otherwise I would have thought that they are saving the best for the rest. I was exhausted to my soul in the vain hope of getting interviewed. After those hungry four hours I was called and was asked to sit, I managed to make my first impression good by showing some courtesy to let her sit first. Yes HR Head was ma’am in her mid thirties. Now the moment arrived for which I was waiting for a long time to get some consideration for my internship outside India, big thing in my college actually. The interview went for at least an hour and I was asked all the questions that people preach for PIs. What are my strengths and weaknesses? Tell me something about yourself, which is not written in the CV? Describe any situation where you came out as a winner after a long stressful situation? Tell me something about your family background. Why do you want to switch to IT sector? Why TCS? I see that you have taken internship from Austria, tell me something how did that happen? What was the project there (Austria) and what was your task? And the list goes on….
                         Finally it was over and somehow I knew that I will be selected. I was then asked if I would like to wait for the result today in half an hour or I would wait for a day. I couldn’t hesitate to say that I am willing to wait again for an hour rather than a day after such a long time. I was called for the II round which was just a formality and I was asked if I have problems if I will be recruited anywhere in India and this time I was honest to say that I have with some of the southern states because of the language problem. Anyway we got eh information that we will get the result after 2 3 days in our campus so we came home with the one thing that lasts forever…hope! And after 6 days I got the result that I have got it what it takes to be a TCSer.

My Own Obituary

-->

Well it was a sweet Sunday morning of 2087 when this not so great personality died of too much percussion in his life sleeping in total slumber, as it was till death not in his habit to wake up early. He died as a man of honor after receiving Nobel prize for discovering 100000 ways of remembering English words which helped many test takers for all round examinations like GRE, CAT, GMAT, TOEFL, SAT and only because of their blessings he lived so long. He although was unmarried but was secretly in love with somebody whose identity was not revealed even after his death.

He was amiable and was very supportive but it occurred that he later in his life suffered from visual hallucinations. He started to see people which in a way completed his personality. Some are to be known by the mortal world. Firstly he saw Angelina jolie who died because of heart attacks 30years ago when Brad Pitt again got back to Jennifer Aniston, popularly known as Rachel Green. He was fascinated by Harry Potter as it clearly was revealed when certain paranormal activities started happening wherever he went.

He also interacted with Iblu and Tublu, the two famous creatures who once landed on the surface of earth and were only able to talk to Mr. Singhal (the name he preferred more) to discuss the possible solutions for the recession which led his company ‘Singhal Enterprises, the pioneers of spaceships’ to tumble in thousands of pieces. He always followed the principle of Stay Hungry, Stay Sleepy! (It was proved that Steve Jobs copied his slogan, modified slightly and became famous). He came to the conclusion that there is only one way out of recession and that is to live with the people of Mars following barter system.

Well outlining the life he led, starts with his childhood, extremely cute, fair, talented (there is a saying in Marwadi ‘putne k paun palne mein hi najar ajate hein’), he was once caught in front of a painting by Leonardo Da Vinci, and made the conclusions about the origin of Christianity which people believed and revered him for his foresightedness. Apart from his dancing skills and management skills he was once famous for his modeling skill set. He earned the Mtv Youth icon 2050, Ultimate Roadie47 along with Model of the Year. He was awarded with the then SMW, car named after him. He was noted for his humbleness, he attended funerals of all the people like Amitabh Bacchan(a great loss had to bared by Sanjay Lila Bhansali in his film on gay sensuality named GREY), Shahrukh Khan(who died saying k..k..k..paro), Salman Khan(still unmarried), Saif Ali Khan(having his 13^th child with his 25^th wife/gf not Karina…long story though), Akshay Kumar(surprisingly married to twinkle khanna only), Sachin Tendulkar(scored 350000runs in International Cricket). He missed out only one person, Amir Khan, as he was 45seconds late for his funeral and after death too he maintained his image as Mr. Perfectionist.

Now coming to his public speaking events, while addressing 102^nd convocation at MIT, where he used to teach Electrical Engineering, specializing in Natural Intelligence, used in surrogates of all the people, he spoke of possibilities of living after death and people are still trying to understand his concepts. He then resigned and joined ‘Rajasthan has got Talent’ as a judge along with Katrina Kaif and Penelope Cruz, with whom there were news of his alleged affairs with. He wrote many books like: Family Guy, ways not to be called as ‘Bhiyya’, FRIENDS and his autobiography ‘Just Like That’. These all became the bestsellers earned approximately $75billion each.

He was against any violence and hence worked for peace all over the world. He made peace treaties with Barak Obama XVI for abandoning ‘weapons of mass destruction’ holding a position of Prime Minister of Rajasthan (today’s Asia+Europe+Soudi Arabia+Australia+South Africa+Antartica).

We all hear wish that may his sole rest in peace and never comes back through nay of the gateways like a well or something. He led a successful life. May his all desires fulfill when he goes to inferno. We all wish him happy journey and hope to make full use of his book on 100000 ways of English vocabulary.
