Tata Group set to steer Jaguar, Land Rover
If the Tata Group does drive off with US auto giant Ford’s iconic British brands Jaguar and Land Rover, it would be another feather in its cap after buying European steelmaker Corus earlier this year.
British media reports say loss-making Ford could announce as early as Friday that the Tatas, reported to have bid around $2 billion, had been named the top choice for buying the storied luxury carmakers.
It would be the year-end icing on the cake for the Tata Group, which bought Corus for $13.7 billion in January, and also another sign that cash-flush corporate India’s foreign acquisition drive has shifted into high gear.
Tata’s chief executive, 69-year-old Ratan Tata, credited with transforming a sprawling, unfocused tea-to-trucks conglomerate into a global player, had long promised the group would “spread its wings far beyond India.”
If the family-run conglomerate gets Jaguar and Land Rover, it will be in the unusual position of manufacturing two of the world’s most prestigious cars as well as one of the world’s cheapest.
Tata officials in New Delhi had no comment on Thursday on an article in Britain’s Birmingham Post quoting an unnamed source at Land Rover as saying: “It is definitely Tata.”
They come from a manufacturing background, and the experience of other people they have taken over has been good. They are cash-rich and they can afford the price, as well as invest in the future,” Quinn was quoted as saying.
On Thursday the Tata Group was named the world’s third most accountable and transparent company by Britain’s One World Trust, an independent research group. General Electric and GlaxoSmithKline were rated numbers one and two.

"Khuda Ke Liye ; (In the Name of God)"
Seen a movie which has covered a lot that always keep on going in the mind but nobody is ready to understand and break this vicious cycle...Hatred, Racism, Relationship, Islam, Terrorism, Muslims, Music and a Family.
Since City of God this is one recommended watching or rather a must watch. where in here there are no slums of Rio ; This time it is a story of a Muslim Family and the misunderstanding of Islam by few and making it complex and that too for their own benefits.
movie wherein Music is the common string and a common language of all.
Movie by Shoaib Mansoor and Naseeruddin shah played a special role but it was too significant and he once again made me remember his older drams like PAAR; WAITING FOR GODOT(Samuel Brecket); BAAZAAR
This movie covers teh real insight of Muslims after 9/11 and the conditions and problems faced by them.
Cheers!!!!

"YOU SHOUT AND NO ONE SEEMS TO HEAR...."
What if today,
we all went blind.
Would we still know,
youth and shabab?
What if today,
we all went blind.
Would youth and shabab
continue to fight?
What if today,
we all went blind.
would we know
one race from other?
What if today,
we all went blind,
would you mistake me
for your Brothers?
What if today,
we all went blind,
And if today,
We all went blind,
The world becoming.
An unknown place.
Would you be able,
to trust me?
Without seeing the color,
of my face?
If today,
we went blind.
Today would be the day,
when we would all,
Hate ourselves,
for what we thought,
BUT DID NOT SAY..
I am in a riot situation wherein only my area is under curfew and I am still not able to understand why the hell are we fighting and for what???
Cheers!!!

I am in LOVE
I recall a few rhymes of a T.V. serial “everybody hears the word of mouth but nobody feels the hearts agony in the noisy markets all around who identifies the silence.”
Once we realize how silence is eloquent through its emotional strength, we shall justify that EQ (emotional quotient) is more important than IQ (intelligence quotient) for our survival.
In depth analysis of the proposition shall disclose ; emotion is linked up with heart, and heart itself is the seat of emotion. Intelligence is linked up with mind and it is the mind that governs the intelligence. So, we could say heart is more important than mind. I shall reveal what I feel in my heart I hope you don’t mind it…Do you mind it? If you mind it, ur intellectual plane shall deceive u hence accept my advice in your heart you don’t have to mind it at all.
If somebody glorifies intelligence, frequently as they do so they are suppressing their emotion…. What u suppress remains unexpressed, emotions are to be charged and they must be given an outlet.
If your intelligence dominates the emotion starves. Hunger of emotions will make a person restless and uncomfortable, thus emotion must be given their due weightage, there is no survival in this world without Love…Love is the basis the very foundation of our existence. The emotion of love is more important than any amount, any measure of intelligence, from a great poet “Hunger allows no choices to citizen or the police we must love one another or die.” Anyone who prefers to die in inclined towards suicide. If one wants to live its only implication is love the emotion of love…love helps us to live…..an atom of love is much more important much more significant than tons of intelligence…

Ignorance
Stupidity has taken over,
I think we've lost the war.
Ignorance has taken over,
I can't take it anymore.
Genocides and living lies,
An enemies defeat.
Telling others how it's wrong,
A hypocrites elite.
Like a communist democracy,
Not making any sense.
Retaliation and refugees,
A revolution of repents.
We have to teach the youth,
Action must be taken.
Like a tree ful of poisonous fruit,
This world must be shaken.
Stupidity has taken over,
I think we've lost the war.
Ignorace has taken over,
I can't stand it anymore.
Unsure memories,
of years past movements.
Never well planned,
But looking towards improvements.
Thinking is a gift,
Like a parcel waiting for you.
Once it is discovered,
You will find your mind is true.
-ALIen.

The other side.....
If you hate me, can you love any other?
When you are hating your lover, your sister, your mother
I am a mongrel, and in this I find no shame
In 100 years time, we'll both be the same
Decayed and forgotten, under earth so deep
wrapped in a blanket of deaths eternal sleep
How can you think that it's just to defile
The peace I have had all my life since a child?
I used to think I'd hate you for all that you do
But I've no quarrel with myself, so I've no hatred for you

I'll do it for you, honey baby,

sitting and thinking about the day spent seems as if i have won a war of my life. as usual planned to get up a littel early, but failed and as a result the regular day starter food from mom...went for a hair cut and as soon as i was done my mind started floating in the illusions of Ms. Squirelly, as wat will she feel about the earthworm...than and there decided to have some "Kunti & Motic" and spending some time spending sipping on the usaual CHAI...went for the regular fucked up schedule Scored some tested and went with teh southern winds for a little joyful trip of the city watching some cultural program next to the lake and a little cloud of smoke at the RTDC Bunglow and stared at the city and thought it is far more beautiful than wat i think.....had little dinner waited for call from the aquirelly, but this fuckin needs and desire of having this monomanic in self made erthworm saying No to squirely , knowing that it wil hurt her and than repenting for the same is the old tendancy of earthworm, as when it is dark they hibernate and come out to seee the sun and feels that he has achieved some great victory...but while floating and discussing a lot with people like the barber, strangers, family people and lot more on the simple Topic" Why one has to be married" left with no justified reply and hence illusions seemed very beautiful and glorious in front of the reality which a earthworm sees that it is dark and no sun so lets sleep.....

Apocalypse!!!!
remembering something and sying "So why did I do it? I could offer a million answers, all false. The truth is that I'm a bad person, but that's going to change, I'm going to change. This is the last of this sort of thing. I'm cleaning up and I'm moving on, going straight and choosing life. I'm looking forward to it already. I'm going to be just like you: the job, the family, the fucking big television, the washing machine, the car, the compact disc and electrical tin opener, good health, low cholesterol, dental insurance, mortgage, starter home, leisurewear, luggage, three-piece suite, DIY, game shows, junk food, children, walks in the park, nine to five, good at bohrawadi, washing the car, choice of sweaters & borrowed stuff, family festivals, indexed pension, tax exemption, clearing the gutters, getting by, looking ahead, the day you die. "
