www.airtel.com opens Vodafone site :-)

This morning when I was trying to view my Airtel bill, I managed to open www.airtel.com but to my surprise, I saw that it was redirected to vodafone site. For a second I thought has Airtel been brought over by Vodafone ?

but the truth was it was a DNS ( Domain Naming System) entry that points

www.airtel.com --- > http://www.vodafone.es/particulares/.
I did some googling to find if I was the only one but I saw few guys did notice this. The actual website of Airtel being www.airtel.in.

I brought this to the notice of Airtel Customer Care, I only hope they will take some action.

Super lyrics by Yograj bhat - Gaalipata



This is one of the few songs which I have listened to 100's of times..
Awesome lyrics... and the music is amazing.. this one is from Gaalipata..

you can listen to the songs here
http://majamaadi.com/gaalipata.html ( Lyrics in kannada are also available in the same website so i dont want to duplicate.)

This is how the lyrics goes.

minchagi neenu baralu nintalleee malegaala
becchage nee jotegiralu kutallieee chaligaala
virahada bege sudalu yedeyalli besige gala inelli nanage uligaala !

minchagi neenu baralu nintalleee malegaala
becchage nee jotegiralu kutallieee chaligaala

naa ninna kanasige chandadaranu chandabaaki needalu bandebaruvenu :-P
naa nera hrudayada varadigaranu ninna kanda kshenadali maate marivenu :-)

kshmesinu nee kinnari nudisale nudisale ninnanu heli keli modale churu paapi naanu :)

minchagi neenu baralu nintalleee malegala
becchage nee jotegiralu kutallieee chaligaala

ninna manada kavite saala padeda naanu saalagara
kanna toradu dochikondaa nenupugalige palugara
nanade eee vedane ninage na nedanu heli keli modale churu kalla naanu :-)

minchagi neenu baralu nintalleee malegala
becchage nee jotegiralu kutallieee chaligaala
virahada bege sudalu yedeyalli besige gala inelli nanage uligaala !


The next song goes like this.

onde samane nee usiru pisuguduva tirada mauna!
tumbi tuluko kangalali karagutide kanisa banna!

yadaya jopadiya olage kaalidade kulutide olavu!
manada karmugilina tudige malebillinante novu !
koneirada ekantave olavu.

onde samane nee usiru pisuguduva tirada mauna!
tumbi tuluko kangalali karagutide kanisa banna !

jeeva kaleva amrutake olavendu hesarida bahude ?
prana ulisuoo kailige preeti endu enna bahudu ?

hongasana chadaradalli mullina hasige ali maligi
yatanege mugulnage baralu kanna hani summane holagi
avalanne japisuvude olavu.

jeeva kaleva amrutake olavendu hesarida bahude ?
prana ulisuva kailige preeti endu enna bahude ?

nalku padadagideyali miditagala banisa bahude ?
murru swarada haadinali hrudayavanu haridida bahude.

ukki baruva kanta dalli naralutide nalume gaana.
bikkalisuvaedaolage nagutalide madidha kavana !

ontitanada guruve olave.

Itz better to be doing some crap than being idle



Here I come after almost month and half.. lost in the midst of a small journey which is never wanting to end. To wait is the most worst thing that I can think of in life but several times we can't really help and waiting is the only way out. Here I wait for my VISA to fly back to UK.

I have had a wonderful Tour of India starting from my Sister's marriage back in November, followed by Pondicherry bash with Engg classmate. The pondicherry blog can be found here journey-with-oceans.blogspot.com .
From there to Ranebennur for Vijay marriage and then visiting Hampi was a pleasure with my good old friend Raghu, my Guru for the journey of life so far. It was very relaxing and I also felt very proud of the Vijayanagara Samraja (Empire). Hampi trip especially came as a big relief as I was stressed out a bit trying to co-ordinate with my Manager and the travel department with no real results.



It didn't stop there, more events followed one of the most memorable event was meeting with school friends it was as long as 10 years that I got to see each one of them, also had a chance to meet up with Diploma mates the same week.



To follow it was a totally unplanned trip when we drove to Mysore but then landed in Ooty that very night and then enjoyed the train to Coonor and the Tea Estates and Madhumalai Safari.

It was a nice end to the new year 2007 when I went out with my parents to a movie followed by a dinner, for a change I spent this New year with my family.

As New year started it was a mixed expression, I was supposed to return to UK on 2nd of JAN 2008 but couldn't keep up my word to the customer as my VISA was still under processing but was happy to spend more time with family with the extended holidays and also lakshmi was to travel to India that very week which made it even more happier it would have been nice if pradeep also could have made it.

Time just passed by thick and fast and continues to do so for now..
