There was a superstar... Rajesh Khanna.

 



There was a superstar... Rajesh Khanna. After shooting, he would drink scotch until three in the morning. He would eat dinner at four. The shooting would start at ten in the morning and he would arrive at four in the evening. One day, a very self-respecting producer said, "Uncle, are you looking at your watch?" Full of pride, Uncle replied, "It's not me, it's the watch that looks at my time... My watch costs five lakh rupees and my glasses cost three lakh rupees... I had a lot of money and I used to throw a lot."

The director wrapped up without shooting and said that time teaches a lesson to those who disrespect time. There came a time when Kaka had no time. He had no films, no shooting, no wife, no children, and no one to tell him to pack up. He would sometimes be happy and sometimes tearful watching his old films with his sycophants. Everyone left him. His destiny was to drink alone and then roll over, and everyone knows the rest of the story.

This is a time that comes to everyone, but not forever. If time and luck are not on your side, you are worth nothing. Perhaps action and effort have some importance, but whether you will live to do your work is determined by your fate, not your efforts.

Enjoy the good times to the fullest, but be prepared for the bad. Whether someone stands by you in your bad times or not, don't resent them in your good times. Humility is the key to good times, while arrogance is the weapon that can prematurely destroy them... This is an eternal truth that applies equally to everyone.

DACOITS OF CHAMBAL

  DACOITS OF CHAMBAL  The Ravines of Chambal once upon a time was famous for Notorious Dacoits. Expanding over an area of 8ooo square miles, the Chambal valley stretches across the three Indian States of Uttar Pradesh (U.P.), Madhya Pradesh (M.P.) and Rajasthan. At an 80km drive from Agra, the land is full of deep ravines and forests, which have been the home to generations of outlaws for decades. The two districts of Bhind and Morena were known for their rugged terrain and the highly inflammable nature of the people. In Chambal valley dacoity was directly linked to ravine formation as there were no employment opportunities, and not much land to cultivate. The 20 to 50 feet deep ravines provide good hideout to the dacoits. When there was oppression people could not control the anger and became rebellious. Mansingh Rathore  had a Robin Hood type Baghi image. He had turned  baghi  — after eliminating five Brahmins in order to avenge his brother’s insult. Most daco...

List of Muhammad's Wives and Concubines

List of Muhammad's Wives and Concubines From WikiIslam, the online resource on Islam According to Anas ibn Malik, the Prophet Muhammad used to visit all eleven of his wives in one night; but he could manage this, as he had the sexual prowess of thirty men.[1] The historian Al-Tabari calculated that Muhammad married a total of fifteen women, though only ever eleven at one time; and two of these marriages were never consummated.[2] This tally of fifteen does not include at least four concubines. According to Merriam-Webster, a concubine is “a woman with whom a man cohabits without being married”, and has a “social status in a household below that of a wife.”[3] All of Muhammad’s concubines were his slaves. Al-Tabari also excludes from the fifteen several other women with whom Muhammad had some kind of marriage contract but who, due to legal technicalities, never became full wives. It is fairly certain, however, that none of these unions was ever consummated. They were th...
