Fall of the Indian Rupee

This week the Indian economy witnessed a new setback with the rupee dropping at an all time low of 53.21 .This had to have repurcussions.So,the newspapers are flooded with economists and business gurus' take on the matter.Interestingly, there's something for everyone here.

-NRI's - They are probably the happiest Indians on earth right now. Indians, that they are, they will make a mental note of the  Indian currency equivalent of EACH dollar they earn !

-Currency exchange - The growth of their business just touched new heights and they are having the time of their life !! It makes more sense to rob a currency exchange office than an Indian bank !!

-Pooja Misra - "SPARE ME!!"

-Private oil firms - With the substantial increase in the prices of oil imports they are busy calculating their margin of profit after convincing state governments to introduce new hikes in the price of petrol !!
Now now, save the environment and go buy that bicycle you had your eyes on !

-Aviation industry - American passenger: "Just 5 dollars for the headphones? i'll take 'em !" Australian passenger : "A little more than 5 dollars.Thats affordable,i'll have one" Indian passenger: "Huh ? 265 rupees for freaking headphones!!! u outta your mind?? "
Now, we know why Kingfisher is shutting down !! 

-IPL Players - "Dude, they just signed me for $250,000 ! How much did they sign you for ?" "umm..$220,000" "*in his mind*...*huh..yea loser dats like 1.6 lac more than yours*"

-Pooja Misra - "SPARE ME!!"

-Media - "Sir, 4 se 7 ka slot cover ho gaya hai, nayi breaking news hai.Navjot Singh Sidhu is our special guest.Ek jyotish ko bhi bulaya hai.Shilpa Shetty ki pregnancy ki story kal postpone kar di hai."

-Tourists - "Is baar Haridwar ke darshan kar lete hain, New York phir kabhi ho aayenge..."

-Anna Hazare - I dont even know what he's doing in this list !! But,well he seems to be everywhere..so...btw..is this reason enough for another Ann Shan ??

-Pooja Misra - "SPARE ME!!"

-The common man - Well nobody really pays attention to this party,the one that is most affected by the actions taken by superior authorities in the "system" to handle the "situation" !
Well, what can he say? He will quitely listen to the morning news and sip his tea with a pinch of salt !!

 -Pooja Misra- ...*due to connectivity problems, she could not reach me and so she was spared !!*

Betrayal

With the curtains being drawn upon our relation,

you've forced me to give it a thought

what was it that went wrong ?

In every high and low, you found me there

and even now your happiness is a part of my prayer.

Through all your sleepless nights i stayed awake,

my vows of friendship never were fake.

While you basked in the glory of limelight,

I let you take centerstage and set myself aside.

Because seing you smile 

gave me inexpressible pleasure,

and all our special moments

i shall always treasure.

All your sorrows made me cry

and now i hold back my tears

as we bid goodbye...

From this heartbreak don't know

if i shall ever be able to rise

But hope that time shall heal 

the pain now i feel

From the chains of friendship that once entangled us

we're both now set free

What hurts the most now is that i've realised 

you never felt the same for me !

Only if it were...

this one thing i didnt wish to happen

this one moment i hoped had passed

this one second that never should've stalled

froze when it came along

a silence submerged yet a cacophony surrounded

a smile appeared and the gloom drowned

this one road i never should've crossed

this one turn that i took wrong

this one journey that i was on

destined it seemed though it was not

solitary stardom blossomimg in autumn

spiraled down into a bottom

this one desire for which i craved

this one romance i longed for

this heartbreak that i never dealt with

this one baggage always i carried along

blurred memories sleepless nights

dreamy visions moody lullabies

this one ambition i never let go

this one dream that i put forth

this one battle i fought in my mind

knights and princes, empires brought down

victories compromised rules bent

this one chase never came to an end

this one fear that came back to haunt

this one lifetime that i wouldn't want

brought to ruins the castle that i build

now that i wish that vaccuum should never have been filled...
