It is the story of then and now. And the subject of the story, Punjabi singers. Earlier, a singer’s popularity was determined by the number of live shows he or she was doing, and also by the sale of his albums. And today, a mere caller tone can map the success chart of a singer.
In this age of technology ‘changing every nano second’ and marketing being the only saleable word something like this shouldn’t be startling for you! The more popular a singer is, the more would be the number of caller tones to his credit.
Rebel without a pause
Flute maestro GS Rajan labels himself a rasik and a ‘rebel’. A lover of music, Rajan considers himself still a student despite the international acclaim he has received as a flautist and composer. One of the first in experimental music, Rajan’s Reflections in 1989 was 25-piece orchestra woven around nature.
Control streak
The perception seems to be formed out of jealousy. Maybe men went green with envy when they saw women shifting the power gears on the driver’s seat. Maybe they felt this was only way to discourage women from taking to the steering wheel. Maybe the propaganda that women make for bad drivers satisfied their male ego. So, when a recently study states the opposite, ‘man’s stress levels rise an amazing seven times higher than a woman’s while stuck in heavy traffic’, we expect certain reactions condemning the study. Women on the other hand support the study and justify with various reasons.
The Art of Putting
Putting is a game within the game of golf. The putter is the club with which to make strokes per round. No other club is used as much as the putter. Yet most golfers do not know what mistakes they make while putting or what to build as their putting mechanics.
A song with a difference
The song comes as an instant proof of the fact why music director Ram Sampath was the most important judge of the reality show, Rock On MTV and why he was given his due when he took up the case of plagiarism against the Roshans’. His latest composed track, Bhaag DK Bose from the movie Delhi Belly is a rock track, something that Bollywood has missed for a long time. Heavy drumming and superfast beats have already made the song climb the charts.

A fare to remember
Frame your garden
People forget that the garden begins from outside the house. It is rightly said the face mirrors one’s heart; likewise the outside decoration tells us about what could be inside. It also reflects nature of the occupants.
