Inspired!!!

As you know everytime India gives the nation's well recognized awards like Bharat Ratna, Padma Vibhushan, Padma Bhushan and Padmasri etc. Well, keeping the controversies apart I really felt that this time the awards were given to most appropriate people.

And they are really inspiration to our generation. I am primarily happy that SP Balu(one of the eminent singers in India) got Padma Bhushan. He is my inspiration to get into singing. Well deserved person to concur the award.

Also Akkineni Nageswara Rao got Padma Vibhushan(first telugu film actor to get). More than his acting, I would say his life is more inspirational. The discipline he had(i would rather love to say say "he has") and the focus he had towards his career was extra-ordinary.


Also, I am reading news these days about people demanding to award Bharat Ratna for Sachin Tendulkar. I dont think its required for him. Dont get me wrong:). I am saying there is no need to demand, it should/will come by itself to him. No doubt that he is deserved being for that. But it will not be glorious to get it by request or demand.

Thanks to Government of India for this inspirational awards. May many of these awards come to well deserved people and elevate the India's pride.

New York Trip

Hello all,

As planned, I have completed my trip to New York along with my wife. It was different and interesting this time. As usual city is more beautiful that too in Chrismas/New Year's time. We have visited all standard places like New York city, Washington DC, Pittsburg etc.

However something different is that we went to Empire State Building observatory to have glimpse of the city skyscrapers. No words to explain, but just WOW.

Spent sometime meeting friends and relatives which was relaxing. Also had a family get together for new year night playing games etc.

A nice break from work with this trip. Finally had to come back to work and should sit tight for more period this time as there is no holiday season soon. Till then have a good working time guys. Some pics below as usual to get inspired.
