A Journey to Hyderabad

Hi, I remembered while writing this blog that in school time teacher gave us a homework to write an essay on Place which you have visited during vacation/ holiday period; at that time we were very much annoying on teacher not giving us breathe to enjoy :) but today No Hard Feeling :)

What make me today to write this, it is most memorable b’cos first time in my life span of 27 yrs. I physically saw SUNIL GAVASKAR & RAVI SHASHTRI (at Mumbai Airport), Thanks to low cost airfare which gave me an opportunity to meet these old days big celebrities :) for us of-course big celebrity in Cricket is SACHIN TENDULKAR but for my father he was the one.

First I saw RAVI SHASTRI standing in queue for check-in INDIAN AIRLINE then my mind gave me signal that he will not be alone again I turn to see & I saw the great SUNIL GAVASKAR, at the same time I decided to take his Autograph & also I realized that once the time get over all the fame comes down like a boiled milk. But I love sportsperson more than actor, they are among one of us. During all this thinking mode I lost these two famous personality finally I told my friend that we lost the opportunity & it doesn’t knock back, but that day GOD was too kind on us & we catch SUNIL GAVASKAR I shook a hand & gave my intro (that’s the problem with Sales & Marketing guys) & request him to give his autograph on my ‘Mum-Hyd’ ticket & with personal ‘Waterman’ fountain pen. I was unlucky to get RAVI SASHTRI autograph as we lost him in the queue.

Then I mate one of working friend at AIRPORT which I can’t think off, looks to me that he came for Interview he was in denying mode but I was enjoying teasing him :)

I called my father & update him that I got a autograph of SUNIL GAVASKAR he was excited & asked me details how & when which was expected to me :)

I travelled almost after 6month in Aircraft due to global meltdown/ budget cut issue. I enjoyed travelling (b’cos I never expected any extra service/ care from flight stewards), I made new contact & my new friend has suggested some books must to read. I wish i will fulfill his desire soon.

Then the journey goes to Hyderabad airport & again a big shock was waiting for me outside airport, I came out with our shooting team & I saw India Region HR lead is standing just in front of me for a friction of second I realized I have still not reached Airport to fly Hyderabad :) had a good word he has tried to understand the reason of our travelling also checked that our plan is sound & safe or not; which is really appreciable. I realizes all these qualities makes a professional good leader. Any way long way to go for people like us…..

Then we started our journey to Mehbubnagar we stayed night there & morning after the breakfast we left for destination to shoot, it was good experience for me b’cos I haven’t seen the commercial seed production processes.

This gave me opportunity to understand & physically see all the processes which makes a seed commercial selling seed, I will not discuss this here once our job gets complete with due permission I will take you through the ‘journey of seed’ (this beautiful caption gave by our Agency talent ‘Anagha’)

Visit to RURAL India enforce you that how much poverty are still there, a lots needs to be done to make rural people life at par with urban lifestyle. It will come only with good education, infrastructure & obviously affordability in all sense....

I am writing this while sitting in my room (Hyderabad Hotel) I don’tknow what value addition it has done to you but some time it happened that you read something which is useless or nothing matter you.

Cheers,
Rav
