First Interview of my life….. #WillYouShave??

Credit-Banner is taken from Flipkart.com

“Amarchand Mangaldas”, one of the leading law firms in India came to my college placements to recruit young lawyers. Their pay scale was also one of the attracting aspects of our college placements. Almost 100 candidates applied to get into this firm and they barely shortlisted 10 students from our batch among which 6 were boys and 4 were girls. “Government Law College” one of the prestigious law institution which provides great opportunity to its students in different ways and placement was also one of the great opportunity which we had that year. I was one of the candidates who got shortlisted in that list with remaining 9 students.

 Samarth Surana, was one of the brilliant student from our college and everyone was scared as he was also with us for this interview. Though he was brilliant and his intellectuals were extremely higher than anyone else but Rahul Jetly from our batch was also one of the competitors. I was not counting my name at all because I already had lots of doubts on myself if I can get that opportunity and I was in satisfactory situation only by seeing my name in shortlist. Indeed it was a great challenge for all of us and intellectuals are not the only thing which generally law firms see in a good candidate; they do consider social and cultural aspects of candidates as well.

At last the day came when we all scheduled to reached at our interview premises by 11 in the morning half & hour in advance before the interview schedule. We all were nervous and were sharing some tips with each other by assuming if that can work out at last moment but destiny is also something which plays a vital role ne everyone’s life. Alphabetically my number was 9th one and I had to wait for long time. After 8th candidate H.R. called out my name and I stood and moved ahead to interview room. During my interview they commented a lot on our college as they find us indiscipline and less presentable in terms of looks; I was sitting just in front of them couldn’t deny or affirmed just nodded slightly and indirectly intimated my intention to move on with my interview.

I finished my interview and those brilliant boys also finished their interview and I was expecting one of them to become their choice but then the I recalled interview panel’s words as they were not happy with personality presentation because many boys from my batch were not properly shaved; infect they do not like to shave at all. However the 10th number guy was also from my batch and I was not known him so well but when I just had a glance at him I noticed he was properly well shaved. I just forgot my interview for a while because I wanted to know the results H.R. girl told us to wait for half & hour then interview panel will communicate their decision to us.

Almost after 45 minutes I saw that same H.R. girl is coming towards us and she announced that 10th number guy who went for an interview in the end and in addition to that;

interview panel also came outside to congratulate him personally and they appreciated his personality and they also mentioned that groomed face give good impact on any interview and they suggested remaining boys to have proper shave while going for any interview and panel wished all of us best wishes for our future life and we moved ahead to our respective destinations.

That was a day I understood groomed face plays an important role in addition to anything else. So guys you should not waste more time have clean shave and rock in your life. :) :) :) :)

#WiilYouShave??Because opportunity wants it…..


“It’s okay! Don’t feel bad I told you to shave today before your conference it create a good impact but you never listen to me….. Huh,” My husband who is one of the lazy men on this earth. I don’t know what god thought before to make him. Hmmmmm well that’s not my concern  I do suggest him always when he goes to office without proper shave but as usual he never listens to me. Man with proper shave always look perfect from bollywood star to normal corporate employees groomed face always create a great impact on one’s personality.

My husband who is one of the most senior associate in one of the leading corporate and Yes, his intellectuals are sufficient enough to provide him good opportunities anywhere but as I always suggest him to make his look proper but he always refuses my suggestion as he doesn't believe in outer beauty.

I honestly do not believe in looking good or something but when it comes to personality then I do believe that person atleast should be presentable enough and when a man is with proper clean shave then no doubt he compete others in all aspects. My husband who was not clean shaved during his corporate conference lost some sorts of attention from other senior most directors he found himself neglected due to his unshaven look. He was feeling so much pain that he 
couldn't resist himself to share the same with me. I saw his eyes that had some sorts of uncomfortable and negative vibes which were not allowing him to forget some unwanted events of that corporate conference.

“No, it not time to see him in pain it’s a proper time to help him to improve his personality” I told myself and started working on it. I know my husband very well he is very pious person by heart and character but this world require something more than pious character and clean heart. So at last I decided to do quick shopping for my husband and I started to think on which my husband should work first on priority. His beard was the first thing which I thought in first instance and I opened my laptop and clicked on FlipKart.com which is one of the most talk website famous for online shopping. I ordered one Gillette Shaving Kit at Rs. 990/- only and requested to wrap it in gift wrappers as I wanted to give it to my husband and I ordered one red roses & chocolate bouquet from ferns & petals to make my beloved hubby’s mood bit better. After that corporate conference’s incident he was not behaving properly and some kind of lack of confidence I saw in his activities.

At 10 pm he reached and without even having a single glance on me he entered inside the bedroom and roughly asked for dinner I preferred to ignored his rough behavior and held in my arms and gifted him that beautiful bouquet after seeing that he atleast smiled a bit and then I gave him Gillette Shaving Kit after seeing that he said “are you making fun of my looks?? Or you want to prove yourself right”…. I ignored all his rude wording and requested him to shave properly once by giving him an indirect assurance if in case it doesn't work I couldn't  force him to do anything related to his looks.
Credit-amazon.co.uk
Somehow I convinced him and he used Gillette Shaving Kit and cleaned his beard. It was I guess for the second time I was seeing his groomed face; last time I saw him when he came to talk to my parents for permitting us to get married. He was looking damn handsome; I 
couldn't even ignore him from my eyes for a second also. Continuously my eyes were looking at him and once again like olden days I became bit possessive.

He left for office at 8 in the morning he was looking damn handsome and his groomed face was shining so much that I whispered in his ear that “don’t let girls flirt with you, I am jealous today and bit possessive too; do come early today” And he just smiled at me and left for his office.

Afternoon at 4 he called me up he was in good mood I felt for a while then suddenly “you were write my baby, today I felt different and good behavior from my senior most managers and they were really appreciating me, I received good comments from female staff too ;) ;)” he said and hanged the phone. I was really happy and I saw an amazing positive vibes in my husband which he lost few days ago without shaven face.


Thanks to Gillette for giving me my baby’s confidence back…….. <3 <3<3<3

#WiilYouShave?? Because women love it…..

This post is a part of #WillYouShave activity at BlogAdda in association with Gillette

“I am giving you last warning if you didn't come without proper shave then I am not going to marry you”, and I left his place. It was my last bogus warning to my beloved but what to do he doesn't like to shave but my dad he won’t prefer a guy who doesn't even properly groomed. I told him so many times but he doesn't listen to me at all. Fine “I only have to work on it, still I have two days and I can make him to look perfect in front of my dad” I suggested myself and moved ahead to my home.


While travelling I saw hub mall which was nearby to my boy friend’s flat and then suddenly I got an idea that I should gift him Gillette Shaving Kit and if I am gifting anything to him then I know he has to use it in any way.

After such an amazing idea I entered inside the mall and looked around as my purpose was to buy only Gillette Shaving Kit. This brand is so much famous among men that it’s not tough to get it and consequently I saw one and bought it for my beloved and told that guy to give it in gift pack.

I was not so far from my beloved’s flat so I planned to go back to his flat and should surprise him. I knocked the door he saw me and he was surprise as I fought to him but still came back which I generally don’t. I surprised him and gave him Gillette Shaving Kit he was damn happy and said “okay baby, don’t worry I was already thinking to buy it but now when you have gifted it to me then I cannot deny from using it” and he gave me assurance that he is gonna impress my dad very soon.

The day finally came when he is going to meet my dad and he was looking damn handsome which I never thought that groomed look gonna impress my dad so soon. After seeing him my dad liked him a lot and told him to call his parents for further talk. Indeed it was a great time/day for me and “Gillette Shaving Kit” made it perfect even more. :) :) :) :)

Kitna Chain hota hai Na sachchai mein (A tale of my fear)

                           Kitna Chain hota hai sachchai mein (A tale of my fear)

“Fresher’s party, wow will rock man but which pub are we going to explore?” I asked some of my classmates. “Royalty-Bandra, seniors have decided this venue for juniors” Rahul informed us. I was happy enough to think anything else and subsequently I couldn't think that my family was typical one and they did not like such stuff from inception. I was/am from typical Brahmin family and for us discos/pubs were taboo but out of my eagerness I also registered my name for fresher’s party.  

It was first year of my law and I was a totally new to this colour world. I remember when I got admission in one of the prestigious law college of Mumbai; my dad was the only one who was even happier than anyone else could be towards my first step which I took in law world. He was the one who was buying books and my college bag so eagerly which I also couldn't. Unfortunately to say I didn't think all these before to register my name for fresher’s party. I didn't even bother to take permission from my dad and there was not even a single percent shame I could see on my face. Today when I am a final year law student I understand how bad my behavior was.

Credit-www.coca-colindia.com

But as we all say “it’s never too late”, and really it was not too late for my conscience as well to understand such a simple funda of life. On that same night I saw a dream that my dad is crying and I am unable to help him in any way. I woke up hurriedly washed my face had a glance on wall watch it was 7 o’ clock when I used to get up for my college. As usually routine I took bath got ready for my college and reached Nalasopara station by 8 o’ clock to catch 8.14’s Churchgate fast. I caught the train and reached college; attended my lectures but my soul was not giving me permission for something that I couldn't understand what exactly wrong is? Going to discs/pubs is/are wrong or going without informing parents is wrong. I left my college soon and caught the train to reach my home sweet home.
                               

After reaching home I told my mom that I want to attend fresher’s party but it is at “Royalty-Bandra” which is a disc and I will become late as well because it starts by 7.30.
Credit-www.sarahbesthealth.com
My mom simply answered “do ask your dad, if he permits why would I mind” and I felt that she is right I should ask whether I am wrong or right irrespective to any conclusion I strongly felt that I should ask him directly he is the only one who can guide me in a proper way. The moment my dad came I entered in his bedroom and told him the entire story and my desire to go to disc. He just smiled and said “fine go will come to pick you up but promise me that you will score good marks in your coming semester”. Tears rolled down in my eyes and I really abused myself how foolish I am how can I even think of doing anything without asking my dad.

And that incident made our bounding stronger and I took his advice lots of time in order to deal peculiar situations of this stubborn life. :) :) :) :)

We lie because we fear, lying is not a solution it’s just an alternative option to do or not to do…. :) :) :)

Teddy Travelogues (My Kid -My Niece)

                  Teddy Travelogues (My Kid -My Niece)

25th November, 2015 at 1.5 a.m. She came in my life and for the first time I felt such a beautiful touch in my life; which I never experienced before that day and that time when she entered in my life. She was as soft as cotton, as beautiful as a fairy and as pious as holy temple. Time passed so fast and I realized it when she started her schooling and when  piousness of her heart when she wiped my tears for the first time and simultaneously she made me to understand such a simple meaning of this beautiful life.

It was my first trip for Shirdi with my angel and she made it memorable forever and not only that she was so happy by seeing all such new places that is indescribable in a word. It was my first trip with her and all the way her silly questions were chasing me as if I am some criminal and I couldn't escape from her innocent questions and as she is extremely stubborn in nature so I had to answer for all of her questions. She was singing all the way and her musical voice was creating a different atmosphere during entire journey. I remember her curiosity and her different way of style by which she only could see this world which was totally different from other people. During our Shirdi visit she saw some clouds and said “Bua, see hanumanji, he is going to meet his family” and the same time when she asked me “why sky is also moving with us, I don’t want to go with it” and there are numerous incidents which really made me to think thousands time and she refreshed my childhood memories.

I remember that moment when she asked me during Shirdi visit “Buaji why do we pray to god??” “Because god is the only authority who can fulfill our wishes if our wishes are true and pious in nature” I replied to her and then we left.

During that trip my result was also supposed to declare and I was nervous enough to think anything and I was just waiting for my friend’s call who could inform me about my result. I felt a light touch on my shoulder and it was my niece who was consoling and saying that “don’t worry, do pray to god who will give you courage now". I fully focused on her wordings and literally understood that children’s hearts are always what we make it what we teach them.   

It’s not that she only has understanding part in her characteristics; she is extremely mischievous as well during the entire journey she was making fun of my dad when he was talking on something and when I failed to do some petty activities due to my age then she was the one who was teasing me continuously. And in addition to teasing she also said that she is gonna tell to her friends about my incapabilities of doing such small work.

Her teasing style, her laugh, and her happiness really made our trip as a best part of my life and those memories I really cherish whenever I see her innocent face. Now she is 11 year old her innocent activities taking technological pace and she is getting attracted towards laptops, mobile phones and tablets but I really miss her when she was not aware of these technologies. 

I really love my angel a lot, indeed she is the best part of my life. In short she is the apple of my eyes. :) :) :) :)

RISE ABOVE FEAR (Story of my fear)

                             RISE ABOVE FEAR (Story of my fear)

It was my first year of law when I was totally unaware of thousands thing which an average student has to aware of but unfortunately to say I was not that brilliant in studies or in anything else. 90% population of my first year law college was from law families or backgrounds and I was not lucky enough as my entire family was in railways or business. Yet, I was not weak enough to give up so easily; without even giving a fair trial to myself.

                          As I mentioned earlier I was in first year of law and being a fresher we all had to participate in fresher’s Moot Court Competition but being an average student I always had a fear of being a farce before my classmates. This was not a time to think so much it was just preparation which all could help me to win that moot court competition. My topic was “Validity of Euthanasia as per the Indian laws” and the same topic was given to other classmates as well.  The most interesting part of that topic was Aruna Shanbaug’s case which was a very well known case in the history of mercy killing i.e. euthanasia. We had given a hypothetical situation of her health status and we had to argue on related laws of mercy killing in other parts of the world.   
credit-wallpapergang.com

                   Five days in advance I started my moot court preparations and my college canteen was my favorite destination where I could read cases and existing mercy killing laws in different parts of the world. Some of my classmates also used to join me in order to prepare arguments and legal research. The most memorable part of that preparation was “mountain dew” and “coke” which we used to had with chicken schezwan fried rice while doing moot court preparations. Whenever I tell to my friends that “I am scared of this moot court competition” their teasing point was always “Monu, Darr ke Age Jeet hai” and that single dialogue used to help us a lot to have a big smile on our face.    

       At last moot court competition day came and my name called out by court officer and I had to present my memorial and arguments but my opponent was one of the smartest batch mate; the moment I saw her I was surprised and lost all my hopes but somewhere I gathered all my confidence and presented my case with full confidence and argued before the judge as if I do not fear at all and my this confidence actually impressed him a lot and I stood in the list of top 5 best performance list. Indeed it was an amazing time of my life when I got my confidence back and today I do not fear to talk to High Court Judges too.

               After passing of time I got an opportunity where I interacted with vice-chancellor and pro-vice-chancellor of MU as well. My life was/is full of challenges but in the end I learnt how I should deal with it during different situations and today after experiencing so many challenges I really can say –
                                                                  “Darr Ke Aage Jeet Hai”

Dabur Chyawanprash- A healthy child makes home happy

Dabur Chyawanprash- A healthy child makes home happy

It was her exam time when she was not well at all. Since, morning- “cough”, “cough”. We tried lots of cough syrup thought she will be fine but no effect. It was just two days left and she had to write her exam. Yes, my sister 21 year old who was preparing for her C.S. (Company Secretary) Finals and her health was uncontrollable. As we all know C.S. examinations are always tough and their result ratio just 3%. I had lots of expectations from her even my entire family had but she was not in condition to prepare so properly yet we consoled her and made her mood so that she can plan to give her C.S. Finals.

“No, I don’t want to appear for December; I will not succeed” my sister told to everyone & tears were rolling on her chicks as becoming C.S. was her one of the dream but due to exam tension & pressure she fell sick and was unable to recover promptly. My dad told her not to take tension and she should go for some Ayurvedic Treatment and then my mom suggested her to have Dabur Chyawanprash because my mom & dad have it every day with milk.  So my mom suggested her to have Dabur Chywanprash and accordingly she had it in morning with milk and set for studies.


After spending 3 hours of studies she planned to have healthy foods like fruits, Milk & Some boiled stuff again in lunch my mom gave her Dabur Chyawanprash and once again she set for studies. After spending 8 hours on studies she was 60% confident that she can clear her paper but yet it was not sufficient studies to clear exams like C.S. but she had no choice.

In a day she had Dabur Chyawanprash thrice and her recovery speed was better than other allopathic medicines. At last it was a day when she had to go to give her exam and she was looking pretty confident. After three hours of her exam mom told me to call her to ask how her paper she smiled and said yes exams were good but as a student even I know you cannot trust until and unless you get your results :P :P  I am not doubting her intelligence :P :P  but that’s true.

In the month of December C.S. results generally comes she was too nervous to check her own result because somewhere she had doubt whether she ca clear it or no but gathered some guts and entered her roll number on ICSI (Institute of company Secretaries of India) website and clicked to proceed and it was unbelievable she started crying but it was a day of her life when her dream came true and she cleared her C.S. Finals with first class marks. J J J J J J J J J

That time she actually thanked to Dabur Chywanprash and its team who actually helped her to make her dream come true.

HomeWali Diwali- a day with family

HomeWali Diwali- a day with family
“Diwali”- a very well known festival across the country like India which is a country with full of diversity and during this festival we see the actual concept of unity in  diversity; where Maharshtrian, North Indians, South Indians, Rajasthanies and other small tribes/caste/sub-caste celebrate this festival by forgetting their cultural differences.  Diwali is not just only for celebration but also has a wider meaning; which connects you to stories of Ramayana (A very well know Indian Epic).

Since, my childhood I am staying with my family. My schooling, college everything was in Mumbai only. There is not even a single festival which I have celebrated without my family and when there is a festival of Diwali then preparation starts 15 days in advance. 

Credit- festivals.iloveindia.com

During Diwali my Mom cleans entire home and she cooks different varieties of sweets like Gujiya, Gulab Jamun, Besan Laddoos and some desi dishes which are very famous among Bhriguwanshi Brahmins :P :P. During Diwali working age group get minimum 3 days continuous holiday and students get 20 to 25 days approximately and it is a time where you can spend maximum time with your loved ones. Regarding the concept of Diwali I would say Different different people have different meaning for this festival and according to that meaning they prefer to celebrate this festival; here following are some examples: 


Kids (5-14 age group): For them Diwali is 15 days vacation from school and during this period they can eat, shop, enjoy & Yes Crackers all time favorite thing which they do prior to Diwali.

Teenagers (15 to 21 age group; Kindly ignore some exceptions/cases :P :P): For this age group Diwali is only and only for shopping, food and friends; that’s it and I can say spontaneously because that’s what it is for me and my some other friends as well :P :P.
Credit-myself; Last Year (2013) Diwali Moment
I love shopping and for me Diwali is a reason when I can shop and buy new & trendy clothes without interruption. I would like to be more specific regarding the word “Interruption” as when I go for shopping with my mom and dad and when I select more than 3 or 4 dresses at a time and when my dad refuses to buy 3-4 expensive dresses altogether then my lovely mom handles situation easily by saying that “let her buy, Diwali comes once in a year” and fortunate me can take advantage of it
J J J.

Adults (22-40 age group; Once again ignore some exceptions/cases :P): For women it’s a festival when 95% women clean their homes no matter how lazy woman you are ;) J yet, you will clean your home. For men it’s a relaxing time out of office world; where they can eat, sleep and can spend maximum time with children and if any desire then wife too :P :P ;)  

Remaining Humans (41 & above):
Credit-Myself Last year (2013) Diwali moments
For them Diwali is about Pooja-Path, Impressing Kubera & Laxmi so that their blessing will keep family, rich, prosperous & joyful. My dad is 56 year old person; when I was just 10 from then I am seeing my dad worship to goddess Laxmi & god Kubera and he does the same Pooja-Path and Mantra dhyan till 3 a.m. just to pray for our prosperous & delightful life.
          

        When I was just 10 my mom told me a short part of Ramayana which was all related to Lord Rama (King of Ayodhya) & his wife Sita.

When on Dusshehra Lord Rama won the battle and he was coming back to his Rajsansar then the entire subject of his empire decided to keep entire Ayodhya with full of lights as they were very happy because their favourite king was coming back to kingdom after surviving 14 years in Van (Forest).  So from that day people started celebrating that day as a festival of Diwali and which is now the most popular festival.

As I stated above Diwali has different meaning to different person but its only aim is to spread happiness whether you alone being happy or giving happiness to others or praying to god to give happiness to your loved ones. So here for me the only purpose and meaning of Diwali is “Happiness”.

"Be Happy, Give Happiness & Spread Happiness; enjoy a beautiful reason for this life".
