Taare Zameen par

I am very emotional at this particular moment, after having seen the movie Taare Zameen Par - which literally means "the Stars in the Land". This movie is all about children with dyslexia and how even the parents aren't in a position to understand them. My niece works in a school for such children and she used to share how these children are very normal and are always able to outperform the normal children, with some initial help in overcoming their learning shortcoming.
This movie is a brilliant portrayal of such a thing. Every aspect about this film is so superb and fine - whether it is casting, or acting or direction, or the speed of the story play. No wonder it has won the top national awards. Both Aamir Khan who takes the hand as a teacher to understand the student's problem and tries to help him cope up and bring out the best in him, & Darsheel Safary who plays the 8 year old boy are fantastic. Also Walt Disney Company has bought the video rights for the home distribution in USA, UK & Australia. This is the first time an international studio has bought the video rights of an Indian film. This is also India's official entry for the Oscar Awards for this year. I sincerely hope and pray that it wins an Oscar as this will mean more number of people will see the film and understand more about the special children and how to tend to them.
Coming to the special children, I want to Salute those countless parents who really really spend their lives taking care of their special children. As parents of normal children, we don't understand the tough situation these people are in. We as Entrepreneurs, or corporate citizens are celebrated at our work place for our commitment, passion, achieving results, etc. But these unsung parents sacrifice their whole life for their children, never giving up on their hope, their eternal love and pass through so many tough situations in life. We are all nothing in front of such people. May God be with them and shower them with His Love and blessings. I am sure that these people are the ones who are closest to Him rather than any religious leader who is constantly praying to Him.

Dr Natarajan - The Indusrial Queens Maker

This was pending for a long time from me - to write about one of the Best persons in the world - who encourages Woman to Take up the mantle of Owner of their own Enterprise. That why I have named him the Industrial Queens Maker. How many woman entrepreneurs he would have helped in making - must be running in 5 figures already. do you know of anybody other than Dr Natarajan , who has gained a doctorate on his research paper on "Women Entrepreneurship". His work was his life. The post of Jt director, Tamil Nadu Industries Department in`charge of Women Entrepreneurship was the most apt post for him. You go to him with just one dream - Wanting to go out on your Own - He will make it happen - that is the truth about him. He not only used to counsel people about what kind of industry will suit them, but will also advice about the various methods in running it efficiently and also actively help them to get started. He even used to guide them about how to approach the fi

Nathdwara, Rajasthan

 Rajastahn Tour Dairies Day 5 contd.. So doing a repeat post on this Little Krishna's abode which was the main reason why I signed up for the tour. The most powerful Little Child who makes people fall in love with this eternal bliss of God - Shrinath ji.   How fortunate are the people living in here who can have the different darshans of the Lord at different time of day.  Yes all the Arathis are different with beautiful attire and charming smile and different nivedhayam. Even to stand in front of him is more than enough for anyone.   History of Nathdwara Shrinathji says that during the reign of Aurangzeb, statue of Lord Krishna was moved from Vrindavan to enshrine it at a safe place. However, when the vehicle carrying the statue passed through the particular spot where the temple now is, its wheels were stuck in the mud. The priest accompanying the image interpreted it to be an indication from the Lord himself. People understood that the Lord did not want to move any further. Ther

IT SME FORUM

About 7 months back a group of Entrepreneurs from Chennai who had a common thread of running their software companies got togehter to form a cohesive group - The IT SME FORUM - as a Strategy to accelerate their individual growth through synergy. Each one of these entrepreneurs are successfully running their software companies fighting individual battles to keep the company up and running, maintain a steady growth rate, increase their customer base, etc. Running a company in India is not a easy task - it is literally getting pulled in thousands of direction and believe me - A business leader is supposed to concentrate only on Growth - Marketing - Sales. But I have found that typically in the Indian environ, we get pulled into operations and managing to spend some time for the most crucial aspect of the business. This gave rise to the idea - why not have a platform to share the best practices, to learn how to tackle problems, get a better voice and get a big bandwidth in terms of out rea
