    hello


    happy independence day...!


    sixty years and great...!

    Times of India headlined
    sixty years and sexy(?)
    wonder what they meant by it...!
    previously it was
    commentaries on radio
    to school or parade ground
    hoisting the flag..
    today it is just a day or holiday

    this sixtieth year is slightly different
    with most of us
    glued to tv with different programmes
    some with newspapers
    reading about sixty persons
    who have helped shape india...!
    great artists sang the indian tune...

    and yet
    we are familiar with rajni kanth, shah rukh khan and
    and for a whole lot of people sivaji is sivaji ganesan
    ............................
    for his shaven head and loin cloth
    gandhi
    a cap of all times and a rose
    nehru
    the bold look and a congress cap
    subash chandra bose
    the patriotic cap and piercing eyes
    bhagat singh
    azad
    and a few other known faces
    of tilak and gokale
    in some papers......
    the bharathiars forgotten
    and among the familiar faces
    (oops whatever is his name?)
    and the not so familiar ones
    and the lot who didnt get noticed
    then and now...
    it was a hard struggle for independence
    at least this coming year
    we shall try and learn something about
    those lost faces
    their struggle against freedom
    and just as we know ...
    oct 2nd is gandhi jayanthi
    will we try and get the
    birthdays of people who struggled
    and say a short prayer
    for having given this day
    of independence?

    sathya
