SRK becomes Silent
Shah Rukh Khan came, Shah Rukh Khan saw, but Shah Rukh Khan didn’t speak.
It’s usually hard to keep Shah Rukh Khan mum but the Kolkata Knight Riders’ disappointing performance at the ongoing IPL series and the controversy surrounding Sourav Ganguly’s captaincy kept King Khan away from interacting with the media at an event in Mumbai on Monday evening.
Also adding to SRK’s vows was the rather lukewarm response at the Box Office to his last release Billu Barber, but Shah Rukh still managed to wear a smile and meet his fans and the contest winners of an online Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi contest.

CSK Tops in Table
The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) posted an imposing total before the Deccan Chargers (DC), so imposing that even a spate of dropped catches couldn’t stop them from winning by 78 runs. A solid batting performance by Mathew Hayden in the initial stages and M S Dhoni in the final overs got them to 178.
The chase? You must be kidding…
After losing Gibbs, Gilchrist and Laxman for nought, DC were 3 for 3, when Dwayne Smith skied one, only to find that three fielders running after the ball, each expecting the other to catch it. The next ball Smith send another one high, and this time another fielder dropped a sitter. Smith promptly made 49, while Rohit Sharma anchored with 21, both were dismissed in a single over by the talented left arm spinner Shadab Jakarti. The DC wickets fell in a flourish, the last with the score exactly 100.
The loss sent DC crashing from the top to fourth place. CSK, with the win, holds the top slot, for now.

CM Fast to Stop Lankan Problem
Hi Friends. Hope you all would have seen the big drama that occurred yesterday in Chennai near Marina Beach. Our honorable Chief Minister went on fasting suddenly due to the Lankan problem. But he finisherround the fasting before the lunch and said that he got the message that the problem has been solved. I did not get the exact picture to represent how cleverly the fasting was done. He was surrounded by more than 5 Air coolers and he was under a neatly covered roof. If a person goes fasting under this kinds of circumstances i am damn sure that no one will feel hungry for nearly 4 to 5 hours. Fasting just for few hours is all an eye wash and without getting any official information from the Srilankan Government this fasting came to an end. But this fasting created a huge problem to the people by stopping the buses and asking the shop owners to close the shop. This type of activities should be prohibited by the Government. But when the Government itself performs this kinds of activities then there is no other go. Already the election date has been announced. After the election date has been announced there should not be any activities like this. Leave your opinions.

Worst Government- Bandh
Hi friends. You all would have faced the bandh which was called few days back by our Government by the ruling party. According to the constitutional rights if the election date is announced there should not be any public activities occurred or called by the ruling party. Once the election date is announced means it means that the Government is resolved. But this event of calling bandh is prely an illegal one and i don’t know why no one protested against this. The one thing which was useful in calling that bandh was “No traffic”. I went to adayar from my house and returned withing 30 mins which was impossible in the morning peak hours. If this continues our Government will be in the position to accept what ever decision the ruling party takes for their convenience. Leave your comments.

Vote 49-0
Hi friends. You all would have heard about 49-0 voting rights. If you people don’t know means let me explain. It is a rule in The Conduct of Elections Rules, 1961[1] of India, which governs elections in the country. It describes the procedure to be followed when a valid voter decides not to cast his vote, and decides to record this fact. The apparent purpose of this section is to prevent the election fraud or the misuse of votes. So if we decide to use this right there is not going to be much difference. Again another candidate more worse than the current one will appear. Waste of getting freedom. All the rates would have been proper without any corruption and there wont be much change in the budget also every year. Leave your opinions on the furutre India.

Blackberry Plants
Hi guys, I wanna share some information about a rare plant, which is generally difficult to grow. And yeah, am talking about Blackberry plants. This plant is not common all over the world, usually grown in United States of America. But the blackberry fruit possesses very high nutritive value. It can be used to treat different disorders, also can be used to make delicious recipes.
But when it comes to growing this plant, it becomes a tough job. Don worry, we have Aaron’s farm where you get the blackberry bushes and plants from his Berry Nursery. All berries are carefully packaged and shipped directly to you and are 100% guaranteed to be healthy and grow. So, think of blackberries, think of Aaron’s Farm.

Suspended Players of IPL seeks Compensation
The four Pakistan players whose contracts have been “suspended” by the IPL have appealed to the President of Pakistan, Asif Ali Zardari, to compensate them for the loss in earnings brought about by the government’s decision to not allow them to travel to India to take part.
Though the sports ministry of Pakistan had allowed the players to travel across the border for the tournament, the foreign ministry barred them from doing so, reportedly over concerns about the players’ security in India. The cooling of relations between the Indian and Pakistan governments after the Mumbai attacks last year has had sporting implications too: India cancelled their January tour to Pakistan, hockey teams from both sides have scrapped visits and the latest was Pakistan not letting ICL and IPL players cross the border.
