Ek Anek aur Ekta

While searching for some, um, ‘stuff’ in Desitorrents, I came across the documentary section. I looked into it curiously and found some great stuff. Out of which one I downloaded instantly. It is a short movie by NFDC (National Film Development Council) titled, “Ek, Anek aur Eketa” (One, Many and Oneness). The film would be familiar those who have seen Doordarshan some 10-15 years back. It is an animation about the strength of togetherness and harmony.
It really brought in a wave of nostalgic emotions to me. I loved these kind of stuff and still do. The animation may be simplistic and drab but the emotion adds a lot of colour to it. I really feel that NFDC should dig up these forgotten treasures and put it up for download. At least they could put it as torrent download and there may be a lot of willing seeders if I am not mistaken. Embrace the medium of torrents and use it for some good purpose rather than simply downloading movies, songs, games, porn etc.
The university exams start tomorrow and I have to get some studies going. All the best for everyone writing the exams.
Signing off with the words from the documentary:
“Sooraj Ek, Chanda Ek
Thaare Anek.
Ek Dilhari,
Anek Dilhariyan
Ek Thithali
Anek Thithaliyan
Ek Chidiya
Anek Chidiya”

P.S:For those who don’t know Hindi (or forgotten it):
Sooraj-Sun, Chanda- Moon, Thaare- Stars, Dilhari- Squirrel, Thithali- Butterfly, Chidiya- Bird, Ek- One, Anek- Many
P.P.S: My next download is Nat Geo documentary on Kalari Payattu

Sigh!

Why is the beer bottle so slender? I think its a deconstruction of the fact that you get a pot belly after a few beers over a period of time. Ah well, I should be taking a few sit ups! Ciao. P.S: I should be remembering the following cartoon before I start a fight with someone. Ciao again. (toon courtesy: xkcd )
