Indianomics!

I was just traveling in a train when this came up in my mind. So here is a Recession poem for you people.

It stuck its seal with the Lehman Brothers,
Another deal in a week for others.

Money came hard for people who need it,
Who had it found it hard to keep it.

The Spending Mood changed its season,
For layoffs, companies needed a reason.

Then you start to feel the thing,
Life is always a pendulum swing!
This is the recession thing!

Obamania struck just nick in time,
A hope for change was just thought in my mind.

It was business as usual for people in the frame,
The Executives do not feel the shame.

The markets make many poorer by the day,
Its the same the very next day.

Many wish to take the paycut,
The bosses were waiting to cut their pay.

You see, its all muck and greed,
I don’t know when we all be freed?

It is growing so fast and fat,
You would not realize when it gives you a pat.

Life is always a pendulum swing!
This is the recession thing!

I have put this poem up here at Poem Hunter

You might have heard the same news in 2002 about Mr. Ambani is merging RPL and RIL.

Well, the same is happening again. Why is something nobody is interested in asking, for the reason is pretty much clear. The tax soaps and a lower price in the market are two major reasons to get things  moving quickly.

The board is meeting on March 2nd to decide on how to do that. Chevron’s 5pc stake in the refiner would be bought out at the same price Chevron bought them in April last year.

This could help Reliance to gain a place among the world’s top refiners.

Maaza is rival to the Slice who has used Katrina Kaif so brilliantly, was expected to come with a beater.

In comes Maaza Mango Mania. Its about a story of a dad who is very obsessed with Mangos and his son calls it his Mango Mania. He hurls abuses at the old mango tree the dad helped grow, then calls the Mango dealer at night, secretly. When a politian during his election campagin calls for more benefits for “Aam” aadmi, this dad again is hit by the Mango mania.

Then the son suggests giving his father a mango to drink rather that eat. He gets Maaza and his dad finds solace for its mania.

Score: 3/5

Slice: Rasiya Aa Jaa

However, with the Slice’s new Kat advert goes a step further on where they had left it last and set the Idiot box on Fire. Unique idea of using the word Kamasutra to rebrand it with a mango as Aamsutra is something which caught my eye. Futher, there is a added erocticity in the actions of Katrina enjoying Slice envokes senses in every one watching it. She is Pepsi’s brand ambassador since March ’08.

Katrina’s sizzling looks and a good camera close up techniques makes this advert love able. The background score is also perfectly suited to Kat’s actions.

Score: 4.5/5

There are two advertisement released for the monthly subscription of Amar Chitra Katha.

The first one is a scene in office where a colleague tells a story to a man and women who get so involved in that they react to every move the story teller is making.

The second advert: A kid sitting on a small round table telling a story in dramatic fashion, keeping the whole camera frame simple and sweet.

Score: 4.5/5

Suzuki GS150R

The new Suzuki GS150R advertisment does not carry the charm it actually needs. The very concept of a girl going for the bike instead of the guy is now common. What makes this ad different is open show of a foreplay the girl gets involved on the bike. This open show may not be likeable for many, but that what is catching up in this advertisment.

The Ad clearly lacks the finnesse, sound is actually better, but the hissing sound of foreplay actually kills it. The ad leaves a room for improvement. Conceptually, the Bajaj DTSi advertisments score much better than any other bike adverts currently doing the rounds. And this advertisment is anyday better than the pathetic HH Gladiator advertisment. HH Gladiator has an advert which shows that when you are on the bike, you can guess any girl’s mind seriously fails against this one and the Bajaj DTSi adverts.

Score: 2/5
