Tring-Tring...

Video 1:




Video 2:



Video 1: Samshad Begum sang this song …mere piya gaye Rangoon..for the movie Patanga(1949).

Video 2: Sonu Nigam sang this song…mujhe raat din ..for the movie Sangharsh(1999).

These two videos had a gap of almost fifty years…video 1 is black and white, minimum technology, singer had a nasal twang…video 2 is coloured, good technology, no nasal twang…pakka chiseled voice…but one thing was common between the two videos…ya u people are guessing right…its of course the phone..

No..no…am not using my blog to endorse a product called telephone or for that matter any kind of communication gadgets (this blog is still not my source of bread n butter).

Mapping out every aspect of your future life ‘Together’…have you spent countless hours whispering sweet nothings on the phone…if yes, then u r the right person to read this post.. :-) ..n give me the opportunity to thank u Dr. Bell (wherever u r) on behalf of the people… especially those in long distance relationships.

Slowly… u notice fluctuations in your communication patterns…scary isn’t it… ;-( (there would be a detailed post on the stages where one witness fluctuations…).

Now, the million dollar question…what should a couple do to preserve their love (oops! Relationship) over the miles…

What else…remember… the airtel ad with music by Rahman…There is no war or barrier that can keep us apart, if only we talk to each other…

(I hope someone’s getting the hint…;-))

waiting for you to demystify 'fluctuations in communication'. i'm sure that wud be a juicy read ;) the videos are not visible:( anyway the phone is, as you rightly pointed out, a very potent medium. but at times it creates barriers where there are none :) got your hint...did you get mine? :)...lol.
