“Taqdeer” (1967) was a Rajshree Productions movie about a family that gets separated from its sole breadwinner (Bharat Bhushan) and lives without him. Bharat Bhushan, presumed dead comes back many years later and finds himself a stranger in his own home. It was a moving tale which was nicelty picturised.

Technically Ramnavmi is over in India, since it is already midnight in India and as such it is a new day. But here is a Ramnavmi song that was quite popular in 1970s and I in fact wonder how I missed out on remembering this song.

The union budget is being presented in the parliament today. Our able finance minister will be making this annual effort to analyze, manage and provide for the various expenses required to run this huge nation of almost 125 crore Indians. The success of the successive governments in honestly deciphering, managing and presenting a budget – well, it has been a questionable exercise over the years to say the least. The bane of the budget, and the misfortune of the entire nation, is the disastrous concept of deficit financing – a device used by the government (not just in India, but everywhere else in the world), wherein the budget outlay proposes expenses much more than the money that is there in government’s kitty.
