Learning Car Driving......

As you must have guessed from title..yep, i am trying to learn how to drive a car without bumping it to others... ;) I have taken some 15 days course.. and yesterday for first time i drove my own car.. not alone..with my hubby sitting on my side.. When i used to drove that instructor's car, i used to think that i was doing good.. but yesterday's drive shook all my myths.. It is quite different to drive with a instructor who has full control in his hand..n giving u step by step instruction then when u r driving ur own car .. Till now whenever i used to make mistake my instructor himself used to correct it, even without my knowledge.. He used to guide me gear changes.. but when i was left to my own descretion, i found it little difficult to coordinate b/w gears and speed.. Yesterday after having filmy jump on speed breaker, i realized my mistake.. i thought gear is used to maintain the speed.. but just today morning i came to know its vice versa.. we dont change gears to change the speed but as we have changed the speed, for supporting it, we need to change the gear.. my instructor just told me that on speed breaker change it to second gear... but what was missing was.. if one is at 4th gear and good speed..first apply breaks.. n since it is a hard break, press clutch along( to prevent stoping of engine) .. then since ur speed came down to somewhere 20, u need to change the gear to 2nd..... I know these things come with practise only.. Anyways..till now it has been fun.. m trying to find funda behind each of my instructor's guidelines.. Trying to remember them..

Guys wish me luck.. i just wish that by next month i can drive at my own... both front side n reverse side :D

Khoya Khoya Chand.......

Nope! i am not here to praise the movie... nor to even critisize.... Just that, this movie made me to research sth.. They showed 60s era.. My first reaxn was.. was glamour world really so unhappy at that time.. answer i got..yep can be.. one can see the stories of Wahida rehman, meena kumari , praveen bobi.. just few of the names which were at top during that time but had very unhappy ending.. So then this story was about whom.. well to my surprise it was very simialr to that of 'Madhubala' .. i never knew that there was so much pain hidden in that beautiful face with most wonderful smile..

Madhubala ..started as a child actor in film industry.. she struggled a lot to reach at the top position.. She fall in love with actor Dilip kumar.. The love story went on for almost six years but not for long. Soon their relationship turned sour and even lead to a scandalous court case. It so happened that during film Naya Daur in which Madhubala and Dilip Kumar were to star in, Madhubala’s father objected for out door shooting and even claimed that the entire Bhopal schedule was an excuse to give Dilip Kumar the opportunity to romance his daughter. Finally, director sued Madhubala for the cash advance she received from him for a film she now had no intention of completing. He also replaced her with South Indian actress Vyjayanthimala . Madhubala obediently supported her father despite her commitment to Dilip Kumar . Kumar testified against Madhubala and Ataullah Khan in favor of the director B.R. Chopra in open court. The case was lost by Madhubala and her father amid much negative publicity. Up until that point Madhubala had worked hard to gain a reputation as a reliable and professional performer with much goodwill in the industry. Her image was badly damaged after this episode. Madhubala and Dilip Kumar were effectively separated from that point on.

She was diagnosed with a heart disease in 1950, before heart surgery was available, yet she concealed it from the film industry and continued working hard, at times coughing blood on set knowing she had a large poor family to support. Many of her friends later recount that she was never the same after her relationship with Dilip ended and many say she suffered from a lifelong depression.

Kishore Kumar took care of Madhubala during her last days. She wanted to be married before dying.. so Kishore kumar even changed his religion n married her.. but Kishore's family never accepted her..She died with a hole in her heart in 1969 after being bedridden for 9 years, and was buried by her family and husband Kishore Kumar. It is said that even during her last days..she just wished to see Dilip Kumar...

Even in this film..they have almost shown same ..but how ever the film lacked strong editing...

Some how narration was not very strong and went on coming and going.. making this film little untolerable..
