HAUNT tak to theek hai mujhe dar hai woh yeh haath kaatkar le jaayegi
But as they say "pen is mightier than the sword"

Meri himmat to dekho yeh line main ek journo ko maar rahi hoon
I was picking a song a few chapters ago on Youtube and some how it slipped to a interview of Doordarshan newsreaders from 1970s and 1980s. (Anyone between 15-30 can stop reading now. Sorry!!😆 )
Anyway... the gal interviewed Gitanjali Aiyar, Tejeshwar Singh, Salma Sultan and Shammi Narang
SALMA WORE THAT SIGNATURE ROSE under her ear

Salma said she was told NOT to wear it by some, as it "DILUTES the seriousness of a news caster's role". 😲Tch tch tch Doordarshan and its rules🤣 If only they bothered to send the DG of Doordarshan to the US back then they would have seen way more than roses,... cleavage, thighs and what not on news persons here...
I bet DD has loosened up quite a bit now...

I recall, we were too young to be doing that back then but would watch with bated breath when Salma would say "Ab agla samachar RAMAN SE" WITH A COY SMILE. JV Raman wore a wig I think and thick glasses and was stoic... Salma was soft ethereal and elegant...😆 When the news is dull you force the news readers to entertain you...

Ab tum bhi likh daalo kya tha tumhari thaali mein, yahan jinhoney sookhe band gobi and matar khaaye woh bahut utsuk hain

ARGHHH!!!

Good to see u, when I am online


I love band gobi & matar.
I had gone to Edison today and had oily and tasty buffet at Rasoi. The food is good but very heavy. I could see oil floating in the subzi, and they had achari paneer, 2 other kinds of paneer. ( burzi and makhani) they also had some indo Chinese Manchuria. I also tikki with channa and pao- bhaji.
Desert were too sweet, rasmali was hard ( but I still ate one 😆 )and also had fruit custard and water melon.
can't move right now 😆😳

Paneer mujhe bohut pasand hai so I constantly search for new paneer recipes to try and this one simple enough that any dunce can make it. 😆
I know how to make 1 simple subzi well (aloo with whatever else is in the fridge) 😛
Roti meri humesha tedhi medhi hoti hain, chawal main anginat baar jalaa chuki hoon, aur dal toh aaj tak maine kabhi khaane layak banayi hi nahi hai.

Before grad school, the only think I did at home was cut the salad and arrange it into a masterpiece every night. I would literally spend hours doing it like my life depended on it! Mom would say "iss artwork ko ab jaake MoMA mein latkaade." 🤣


😆😆 Only mom can say such a thing.

OMG Nisha, doordarashan days were something. I can still hear the music in my ears when the evening broadcast used to start. We didn't have. ATV in Rourkela but when we came to my naanis in Delhi, we used to be glued. The Sunday movie with the entire mohal a in my grandmothers living room, the much hated krishi darpan and much awaited tabassums phool Khile hain gulshan gulshan.

Does anyone remember a program on DD called Telematches. It used to air on Sunday's and it some sort of crazy competition between teams? No one seems to remember those.

And yes about the newsreader, their sarres were the talk of the town. All said and done the DD newscasters had super diction and sounded great. Salma sultan for hindi and menu talwar for English were hot favorites.

I remember Salma and Shammi Narang will check YouTube for her interview. Newsreader today are looking more and more model with simple bodies and wardrobe is out of a expensive catalogue. And not to miss the hair and make up. The only woman journalists I think of is is Candy Curley from CNN who does not look like model. Rest all look the same from the morning shows to evening news.

Hey guys have you checked out barkha dutts interview when she was recently visiting New York. Dutt and that lady who made the documentary India'slections daughter are being interviewd by CBS journo. Some of the comments made by Dutt are pretty interesting. And I believe the issue of marital rape is now gaining momentum in india.

I remember a newsreader called Sadhana Shrivatsava. I loved the saris she wore and asked my husband to go to Utkalika when he was in Delhi to pick up 2 Sadhana lookalike saris 😃😃
They are still in my cupboard !!
