Why the name 'Wagh Bakri' chai???


I remembered an old advertisement that used to come on doordarshan. Actress Sridevi is in court as a lawyer defending somebody and she wins. 'Wagh Bakri' chai was secret of her success!
I could not find the answer to question about name and had scribbled down some nonsense things (I have deleted it now...)

Wait wait wait....
I got a comment from Mr. Jayesh Pandya regarding this post. He has explained the purpose behind the product I am pasting it ...

Dear friend,
A pun with no bones indeed!
Permit me to update you on Wagh Bakri please.
The philosophy of this 100+ years company is "Co existence and Harmony" since its inception. The name and logo remain unchanged, and has been subject of many a management / business school projects.
The name is a logical conclusion of the fact that "Tea" is a drink for all, Rich and Not so Rich, Strong and the Meek, .... the Wagh - Tiger and the Bakri - Goat. And the brand caters indeed to all types of taste and markets.
The second and a more generic explanation is the fact that Tea is a drink which is always associated with relationships. People from varied backgrounds can come together (even a tiger and goat!) over a cup of Tea, forget their diferences and live in peace and harmony!

It was indeed the answer for my question... I apologized him and made promise to publish his answer on my blog. Sorry once again Mr. Pandya

A 'Power'full Day!

This is what I did through out the day!!! Power electronics... Just drawing circuit diagrams, waveforms, problems, fourier series, advantages, applications , etc... It was so boring but no way to get rid of it at least till the paper ends on 7th. But after that there are more dangerous subjects awaiting... EWRS, AMP, DSP, ITCT I really don't know what is going to be happened with me in next 10 days.

It is really a nice experience to write blog. But I personally feel that blog writing can not be more private. As one can write his private thing in diary it cann't be written in blog as blog is a public communication medium it doesn't belong to any particular person. So one can do in his blog is to express his views on different aspects of life, he can share his experiences with everyone or comment on everything but can not share his personal things as he can easily write them in his diary.

I have habit of writing diary. But I can not keep it up to date due to many reasons. I prefer to scribble in my diary in Marathi and not in English as I think mothertounge is the best medium to express our emotions, feelings. I know that the way I can think in Marathi is just impossible with English! But now as a blog writer I want to improve my english writing capability.
Really, it is not as much difficult as I used to think to write in English. Though my language and grammar is not as efficient, attractive as other professional writers or good english knowing persons I'm sure that I can express my feelings to myself and others.
In last two blogs I have written about monsoon and climate I want to conclude this post by the same... Today clouds gathered in sky but there was no raining! We checked Indian Meteorological Dept's website and made sure that monsoon was on its way, it was good going really!

The Second Day...

The day went same as yesterday's. No change at all! The day started at 9, the sun was on usual fire till afternoon and after that same story repeated. Clouds gathered and its started raining. But today's raining was heavier than yesterday accompanied by thunderstorms and hard wind. Lots of trees might have touched ground (I've seen couple of them at night!).

The evening brought great tension to our engineering students as the light went with the first raindrop! It didn't came till 9. When we were in the temple suddenly lights lit up. We thought that God had shown sympathy to us. But we were wrong! 2 hours from then light just came and went. We could do nothing without being frustrated and thinking of a deep sleep!
At last light came(permanently) at 11 and we could study.

I know that it will be a routine for us for next 2 weeks. A city like Pune which is free from loadshading has to face these types of problems in rainy season! Strange!!! The day went so simple and predictable today...

MONSOON.... The First Rain...


What a great evening it was! The clouds gathered in sky in afternoon and everything went so refreshing, cloudy whether... great to enjoy anytime... The rain started in the evening. A fresh breathe came out of soil giving a smell that no perfume can compete with. A natural scent of soil. So refreshing and rejuvenating... Lot of dust had set on leave, roofs, roads no one was able to clean them. Rain did its job so easily that everything around is looking brand new... as if someone has created them just now. I had made up my mind in afternoon to be wet in the first rain of the monsoon and how lucky I was to enjoy first rain on the same evening.

Monsoon has reached Pune on time perhaps 3-4 days earlier. Everyone was expecting it to arrive on Saturday or Sunday this week. But it surprised everyone (as always!!!). It was great atmosphere to have a cup of tea with kanda bhaji. I had cutting at Kalubai (out nashta place) but could not manage bhaji as our kaku is on leave!!! But we are planning to have omelet at night!
The first rain has brought a kind of freshness in environment and everyone is happy on its arrival. The fresh and cold breeze is flowing continuously. There will be no need of fan at night to get a better sleep! But surely no one would think of studies at such conditions!!! But I have to as my semester exam is starting from 7th june!

It was a nice coincidence for me that I have started to write in blog from today! On the day of arrival of monsoon in Pune... It was a nice experience to enjoy rain and writing in blog!
