400* BLOGS in 619 Days with 1650 Comments !!!

            400TH BLOG -->>

       When Sachin Tendulkar miss a century some people abuse and demur. While penning down this 4th Century of my Blog posts, I can wager that each century which is achieved is the rationale of dense effort and extreme pragmatic propensity.  The aggravation in number of Blogs has been an addiction to my Blogging career. Right now, I am writing my 400th BLOG which is a huge thing for me. Being a student of Graduation and dealing with all types of assignments and submissions, it is hard to maintain this Blog. I don't avoid writing blogs because it embellished my life and made my character adopt the attribute of confidence and self-belief. Today, I will surely Thank myself at the provenance of the post for this achievement of 400 Blogs because I know my sacrifices and the way I managed my time for continuing this part of my life. 

               Dreaming anything in life is not easy. Being a middle-class boy with limited amount of financial help, I just can't proclaim in front of my father that I want to become a Scientist, a model, a cricketer, an actor, a musician or a business tycoon. But still, I stuttered in front of my parent,"I want to become a Writer and write a book." My father was shocked to hear this but he kept his cool and told me to finish my studies first and then allude the dream of being a Writer in front of him. He told me to focus on the goal of being a good computer engineer and then think of Writing or Blogging. It was incredulous for me to digest this. When your parent doubt on your potential and they confine your skills, you go into the tumultuous emotions. I didn't took my father's words seriously and kept blogging. Now, I have accomplished 1 year and 9 months of blogging and wrote 400 Blogs with approximate 3,60,000 words which can be turned into 12 different novels. After writing so much, I have fledged an unique parlance. Now, I have little smugness towards myself. I have a troth on me. I can dare to show my audaciousness by contesting in any debatable issue. My Blog - ARB has blemished the trolls who incessantly pulled me for my insouciance tendency of selecting issues to write.

               Today, I have completed my 400 BLOGS in 619 DAYS with 1650 official comments. I cannot claim this as salubrious and healthy statistic because I have 219 Dot Days when I haven't penned down any post. At the provenance, I showed a dogmatism that I'll take the responsibility and onus of posting a post at every 24 hours but I have failed badly. I completed my 1st 100 blogs in 105 days, 2nd in 178 days, 3rd in 111 days and this 4th 100 blogs in 225 DAYS. This happened because I went into the state of melancholy in between. I was always agog for writing but I entered into the life like comatose. My dream of writing was still semantic but life was acting diabolic to me. There were many libels on me which was quite depressing and I was trapped into it as they were inextricable for me to qualify the riddle and moot over it. 

               After 300th BLOG, I tried to do versatile postings and check whether I am adroit as a Writer or no. I wrote on scams, CWG games, Daughter's Day, Ayodhya's case and verdict, Shivsena's attempt to ban Burqas, life of Chetan Bhagat, Bigg Boss's nonsensical dramas, Chacha Nehru's independence speech, RSS comment on Sonia Gandhi, Nitish's work in Bihar, 26/11, Aishwarya's act of smoking in Guzaarish, Tiger's issues and how can we donate for them, Egypt's eruption, Women Day, Euthanasia, Japan's calamity, Shahid Afridi's anti-Indian statement, Anna Hazare's anti-corruption movement, Watson's 185*, Badminton's new order to women players, Raghu and Rajiv's issue of Pune, IPL-4 craziness and on many more serious issues. While World Cup, I epitomized several India's matches. I have written numbers of blog on Sachin Tendulkar- The best topic for Indian writers and editors. I also attempted Fiction stories keeping myself as the main character. The one which I wrote as the father of a commando whose son lost his life in 26/11 attacks and another one where I wrote how a boy did well when he failed to earn a job in placement after completing his engineering was appreciated and earned bizarre plaudits. I also wrote on my life's achievements and failures like the best presentation given by me and my group in college, my 21st birthday, my fasting for Sai baba, my crush on a girl, my meeting with the writer - Rashmi Bansal, benefits of being sibling-less, 22nd anniversary of my parent's wedding, end of 3rd semester, my resolution of 2011, my problem being a middle-class boy, the experience of 6th Feb - the worst day of my life, my performance in this year's College Fest, the loneliness on the day of Holi, my experience of 2 years in Mumbai, performance at 4th semester's practical exam and many many more. I also wrote on all the Festivals which came between the period of my 300th Blog and 399th Blog.

               I have tried my level best to entertain my readers and the surprising element for me has been the involvement and amenability of my reader friends. The semblance of my blog has changed because of the clamor of views of my readers on my blog page. Some of them combat with each other to prove their statement germane. Its incredulous to see their attitude of envisaging any circumstances. My readers have never done any invidiousness to me ever. The one reader I would like to allude is Harman mam. This lady has been very conducive to me. She is the best example of austerity as she has commented on every blog of mine after 300th. I just bow to you mam. Its hard to find a reader and appreciator like you.  I would also name a girl named Priya who keep commenting whenever possible for her. Thanks Priya.

               I never created the blog on Internet to keep it for display as epideictic materials. Many people complained for my blog being parade but I never found it such. Many inculpated it to be untimely and mostly nocturnal but still I continued it in night because it is hard to find time in evening after returning from tiresome college. Many of you have been nimble to assess my minute errors and help me out to make my blog more sobriety. Because of all of you, my blog attained such ubiquity that the legends like Amitabh Bachchan and Chetan Bhagat also read my blog including more than 10 published authors. This is the best I could have achieved with my blog. The support of yours has made my blog an example of sustenance effort and success. 

             From last three days, I'm writing 3 posts daily to achieve the target of penning 400th blog on 24th April. This day has turned out to be quite lucky for me. Its the 38th Birthday of my Idol - Sachin Tendulkar who is no less than GOD for many of us. Its also the Easter Day when Jesus resurrected after his crucifixion. This day is celebrated by arranging feasts and donating to poor. What can be a better day than this to write the 400th BLOG? In the morning, Sathya Sai Baba - a man who has 2.5 crore devotees worldwide got immortal (can't use EXPIRED word for him as he is GOD for many) at the age of 85. I didn't found any other day as lucky as this one to post my 400th BLOG on. 

              I still feel that I can do things better as I still get stuck with proclivity of skipping a day without posting because of dizziness. I am also happy with some readers who come just once on my blog and prove my thoughts as annulment because I get to see the support of my dear readers after that. They prove that one person as the victim of penury of humanness. ;-) I can just speak with a stuttering voice and Thank you all for whatever you all have given to me in these 1 year and 9 months that I have been successful in owning 1,00,000 Readers and uncountable love.I can just never give the love you all have showered on me because its insuperable and insurmountable. 

             Leaving you all with lots of love. I am taking a break from writing for sometime as I feel that last days have been a plethora of posts on my blog. I give you sometime to read all of them and state your view on them.

           Thanks a lot. Lets celebrate the 400th BLOG of ARB. YOUR SUPPORT IS MY SUCCESS.

ABHILASH RUHELA - VEERU - 400* like Brian Lara. ;-) And do tell me whether you liked this one or not.                 

"Only God between 100 of Dogs"

            399TH BLOG -->>

        Whenever you have to talk or write about Sachin Tendulkar, you start searching for some new words so that you can define this man justifiably. Today, Sachin Tendulkar is celebrating his 38th Birthday. A man who has lived 38 years on this Earth out of which he contributed 21 years to his passion - Cricket. Just think if Sachin Tendulkar would not have selected Cricket as his career, what a huge experience all the Indians would have missed. Sachin Tendulkar is the only sportsperson in India who have got such a respect from everyone in the World. He is not the only batsman available in the world but still his batting style is apologized everytime he is on the crease to bat. Every run he scores is like a Century for Indians. Every smile he gives on the field is like blessing for all the Indians. Every time he gets out on the duck, people take it positively and refer it as the coolness before a disaster by Sachin in the next match. 

              I have started writing this post after touching Sachin's feet on the television screen when he was giving interview before the toss between him and Sangakkara for today's IPL match. This is just the second time in his 20 years career of Cricket that he is going to play on his birthday. When he played for the last time, he scored 130+ runs. I hope today Mumbai Indians will score 130+ runs for him. ;-). Even if Sachin will not score better today, I am Okay with it and my heart will not be broken because he has already done so much in his Cricketing career that I hope nothing more from him. What I hope from him is to stay the same forever and never change himself because we are just growing by watching him and we are not ready to accept a new side of Sachin Tendulkar which can be dangerous. You may feel the last sentence annoying but I am saying this so because few months ago there was a news that Sachin is going to act in a Bollywood movie. Sachin reported that it is false and he is not acting anywhere. But if he would have acted, it would have been no less than Himesh's step of acting. I just don't want Sachin to accept any such glamorous option even for friendship. It is even hard to accept him in advertisements but now as its the culture, we are Okay. 

               Sachin has already refused to endorse a tobacco-based company which raised his character in the mind of people. Sachin is also engaged with AVIVA where he helps the uneducated people with literacy and helps to provide them old books so that they can study. The biggest issue in India is illiteracy and Sachin engaged in promoting education for poor children is awesome. Sachin is also engaged in lots of charity and its the sign of his good intention in life. He could have just played Cricket and gain respect from the world but he is involved in charity. This is what differs him from other cricketers and other well-renowned celebrities of India. Bollywood has been the best source of entertainment in India from many decades and people considered actors as God. Amitabh Bachchan was God for everyone till early 90s because he was an ultimate actor who never disappointed his followers. Whenever a film used to release where Amitabh Bachchan used to be the Lead actor, people used to rush towards theatre and the result would be the presence of police doing lathi-charge on the over-crowded audiences. When Sachin Tendulkar came to play Cricket in 90s when India had no hero (because the era of Amitabh Bachchan also landed then, Rajiv Gandhi - the awesome politician was no more and there was no one who was leading India), people made him the GOD and started following his play.

               Everyone knew that Sachin Tendulkar is disastrous but no one knew that he will play for Four decades. Yes, Four Decades. He played in 1980's(as he started playing from 89), 1990s, 2000s and he has entered into the 4th Decade- 2010s. This is why Indian team players call him Grandfather while teasing. Sachin Tendulkar is the most humble player I have seen in this era. He never talks about his performance and keeps praising the other boys from his team for their out-standings. Sachin Tendulkar lost his father when he was playing for the World Cup, he came back to India and because his mother said that his father would have wanted him to play, he returned back to London, played against Kenya and scored 130+ runs. Just imagine how difficult is this that you lose your father in the same week whom you loved and admired the most in the life and then coming to play leaving his broken mother alone in India. The only thought rotating and revolving in his mind would be of his Father's. Only his Father's face and the time spent with his father would be going in his mind, the tears of his mother would be the face in his mind which would have saddened his soul. But the greatness comes here that he scored Century in "SACH" a condition. He thrashed 6s and 4s even in "SACH" condition. This is the Greatness of this man for which he is called GOD. 

                People can crack joke on Rajnikanth whose banner and statues are washed with milk, Prime Minister can be questioned in our nation (as said by Siddhu) but no jokes can be cracked on Sachin and no one can even point a finger on Sachin. Once Sachin was blamed for ball tempering and the case was then and there closed because it was announced, "What Nelson Mandela is for politics, Sachin is for Cricket". Everyone wants to be like Sachin but one can be because such people come once in Century and this man is someone who will not be repeated by any mankind in the whole Millennium I think. 

                Every writer writes about Sachin in his style and with his observation and the miracle is that everyone of them is right. Now, I don't think that I should think about continuing this post even more because if I'll write little more now, a book will develop about Sachin Tendulkar named "Only God between 100 of Dogs". So let me leave you with an information that Sachin Tendulkar is playing the 7th over of the match with 27 runs in his account. He has got the hold on ORANGE CAP again on his birthday. Nothing can be better than this in the IPL tournament. I am still not expecting anything from Tendulkar because he will remain GOD in any condition for me, you and everyone. 

               Wishing The GOD a Very HAPPY 38th BIRTHDAY !!!

                Thanks. I hope my words has done justice to this GOD figure - SACHIN TENDULKAR.

Sorry If I haven't.

400TH BLOG is coming up in few hours.

ABHILASH RUHELA - VEERU   

MaLiNGa's Gr8NeSS & IPL-4 cRaZiNeSS !!!

           398TH BLOG -->>

       Lasith Malinga is playing a wonderful game in the fourth season of IPL. He started with a Five-Wicket haul against Delhi in the very first match of Mumbai Indians and since then he has managed to take 13 wickets which is the highest wicket taken by any bowler this season. He is the owner of Purple Cap. There are three bowlers who are at the second spot competing with him for the Purple Cap with 7 wickets each. Just see the difference between Malinga and other bowlers bowling in this season. It seems like a champion is playing with newcomers. You see the fight for Orange Cap to be the highest Run-Scorer in this season and you will find Ups and Downs in the spot. Sometimes its Kallis, then its Tendulkar and now its Valthaty. Even the batsmen who are at 4th, 5th and 6th spot aren't much behind. So you can't state that Valthaty is the leading batsman or Tendulkar or Kallis but seeing at the chart of bowling, MALINGA can be undoubtedly announced as the best bowler of this era in T20 cricket. 

              While Malinga is giving a chilly treat to all the batsmen facing him, SriLankan Cricket Board was continuously troubling him to return to the nation to play the forthcoming test series against England. He reasoned them that he can't play the series because of the long standing degenerative knee injury but they still called him and asked him to go under rehabilitation and then play against England. He got frustrated and resigned from Test cricket at the energetic age of 27. Malinga is known as the fastest bowler ever produced by Sri Lanka. He is also called as yorker-on-demand after his performances in World Cup and the current performance in IPL-4. Many interrogate the style of Malinga's bowling but it is as unique as his hairstyle. This IPL is showing numerous incredulous performances.

              The new team of Kolkata is rocking at the No.2 Spot as compared to the old team which never qualified for the Semi-Finals in last 3 years. The cool team of Delhi is at the bottom of the table which is quite unbelievable. Sehwag is known as the hitter and perfect for the T20 format but he is not doing anything worthy. Paul Valthaty, a name which no one heard before his marvelous 100 in 52 balls is holding the ORANGE CAP and surprising everyone with his consistency. The leading wicket-taker of this World Cup - Zaheer Khan isn't proving worthy for his team. The Pathan brothers are competing among each other to prove who is more useless for their respective franchisee. Chris Gayle wasn't in anyone's eye at the time of auction as all the franchisee thought that he is not ready to play the T20 format, but as he returned back as a replacement, he scored Century and made his team win proving everyone wrong. Dhoni, recently placed in the list of 100 influential people in the world for his Captain-Cool image and known to be India's best captain ever cannot show the jalwa of his captaincy in this IPL and is in the bottom 4 teams of this IPL. 

              Sachin scoring his first IPL century in this season and Harbhajan returning to form with 4 wicket haul over Chennai is something which people didn't expected in this season. Today's match where Delhi scored a wonderful 231 runs - the highest total of this season and then Punjab chasing it and scoring 203 (forgot the accurate runs) - the second highest total of this season summing upto 400+ Runs in 40 0vers in a single match is much better than the opening ceremony of this IPL season. Punjab is at 2nd, 3rd and 4th position in this IPL to hit the highest totals in this IPL season.Marsh's 95 runs of 46 balls was a treat to watch. Even after losing, Marsh gained lot of respect. One of my friend told me an interesting fact that Marsh is the only batsman who play IPL with a pure form of batting with straight shots rather than sweeps and other types of fancy shots. This IPL is still buffering and there is lot more to come. I am expecting something very big from this season of IPL. Lets see what more is in the way to come.

              IPL ROCKS.

Thanks.
