My experience about the Reliance Meet activity made me think on #LambiInningsKiTaiyari.

My experience about the Reliance Meet activity that made me think on #LambiInningsKiTaiyari.

In the last week of May 2015, I saw that Blogadda.com was going to conduct a promotional activity which was - "Take a peek into the future at the Reliance Retirement Fund meet!" When this activity was being announced by Blogadda, I was just surfing my twitter account and I received the notification of this activity. At that moment, I registered without any second thought and I may be the first person to register for this Reliance Retirement Fund meet organized at the Reliance Corporate Office which is located in Lower Parel area of Mumbai. For this meet, I was able to reach on time but unfortunately, I again ventured to another building as shown in the image below.

 

So I lost near about 5 to 10 minutes, but I was not the only guy who ventured to this wrong address. I was accompanied by another blogger and he recognized me and we both said dude this isn't the correct address. We both then entered this wrong building and asked the exact location where we were supposed to go. I also had received a call from @TeamBlogadda and I said to them that I will be reaching the venue within few minutes. Well, we both entered the premises of IndiaBulls Tower 1, and we were followed by another blogger +Pranay Nigotiya. (At first, I did not know his name but later I knew it just because of the Introduction section that was held prior to start of the meet.)

In this way, I entered the Reliance Corporate Office and then we were directed towards the Conference Room of Reliance. As usual, @TeamBlogadda was very busy with planning and following every blogger and they were eager to start the event on time. Unfortunately, some bloggers were unable to reach the venue on time. Few bloggers were already present in that conference room and it was pleasure to interact at first with blogger +Sanjay Thampi Sir. Now still we were waiting for few more bloggers to come and during this time we were asked to introduce our blog work and answer two things which were "How you see yourself 20 years from now" and "The two things that are on our bucket list".  

The introduction session was great and it was pleasure to hear outstanding and precious bucket list of every blogger. Almost every blogger had a dream to visit foreign country and this would be only possible if every one of us invest a lot of money today. After all, 20 or 30 years from now there will be around 7 to 8 times hike in our monthly expenditure. i.e. If we my monthly expenditure today is Rs.21,000/- today, then 20 or 30 years later it would be Rs. 1,68,000/-. Well shocking information was being revealed for all of us by the officials of Reliance Corporate Office. The Reliance Officials also asked us the question that how many of us have planned for such higher living expenses which would be required from 20 to 30 years in future. Unfortunately, almost none of the blogger raised their hand said that they are saving a lot of money. And even if anyone is saving it, then how it would be sufficient for about 20 to 30 years in future.

The thing is that when we save money, it just gives us an interest and nothing else. Due to abrupt increase in the inflation day by day, it is very difficult to plan our #LambiInningsKiTaiyari. Therefore, keeping this in mind, Reliance has launched Reliance Retirement Fund Scheme's which consists of two programs in it. One is about the Wealth Creation Scheme and the second one is about the Income Generation Scheme. All we have to do is invest in these programs for about 20 to 30 years or even less than that and prepare ourselves for the future expensive cost of living. Well in future, we should never be helpless and we should try our best to invest as much as possible so that we don't have to rely anyone in our age old life.   

Reliance corporate office has done a great job in explaining us that even if we save merely a thousand bucks per month and invest it in the above mentioned two schemes then we would be able to happily bear the expenses even if the inflation rate keep ticking on and on. So friends, all we have to do is to invest as much money as possible for the next 20 or 30 years using the Reliance Mutual funds and we can even plan for our retirement as early as possible. In this way the meet at the Reliance Corporate Office, Parel ended on a note where every blogger was determined to plan their #LambiInningsKiTaiyari. At last, Reliance and @Team Blogadda took us to a restaurant where we were offered a hefty lunch and it was a good time for us to chit chat and interact along with all the bloggers present for this meet.

 

 Thank you @Blogadda and @Reliance_MF. 

My Odour Story - At times the nose has no option left rather than the odour.

“I am sharing my odour story for the ‘My Nose Knows’ contest as a part of the #SniffSniff activity at BlogAdda.”

The very first thing that I would like to mention is that I love to ride a bicycle and that's the only reason why I preferred it during my school and college education. As I had a bicycle to go from one place to another, I always tried to be in college at the perfect timing. At times, I had entered the classroom along with professor. As I used to rush through traffic, I always entered the college premises with loads of water cooling droplet on my face (I mean to say sweat) that I used to wipe with a perfect, clean white handkerchief. I always wondered why professor's used to give me a wired look and during the lecture they used to ignore me as if I am not present in the classroom. Even when I used to ask some doubts they used to clear the doubts as early as possible.  

So during my college time, I thought that as I am on time for almost every lecture, all my professors are always happy. I asked few of my friends about this issue and they said in a jiffy that you come sweating all the way from your home and may be our professor's would be fed up with the odour that follows along with you. At that time, I did take this issue seriously and I started to come early in the classroom. Now it was the time (bad) for my friends to experience the odour that used to follow me ;-). At times, I used to seat alone in the classroom since I used to sweat a lot because of bicycling all the way to college. My friends used to say, that you please don't come in jiffy along with your bicycle just ride it slowly and enter the college premises without sweating like we do.    

   

For the next few days, I followed my friend's advice but there was no help because the odour has already played its part and it has highlighted me as the only person in the college with lots of sweat and odour. Later, I used to try my best to remain sweat free and odourless by using some talcum powder but that also did not help me and by default I used to carry a bad smelling odour. At last, I used neither deodorant nor a talcum power for remaining odourless and this was the only thing that helped me a lot. I also did the next best thing which was to wear cleanly washed clothes only once per day. In this way, whenever I used to feel that my body is going to broadcast odour, I take a bath and wear cleanly washed clothes.    

My experience about the second Digital Axis meet conducted by Axis Bank in association with Blogadda.com

This post is about 'Digital Axis' meet conducted by Axis Bank in association with BlogAdda.com  

Well, this time also it was Saturday, 16th of May 2015, on which the 'Axis Digital' - second meet was being organized by Blogadda. At this time, the occasion was to promote the Ping Pay app which is a second phase of the Axis Bank Mobile App. When we the bloggers were being called for the first meet, we were delighted with the first launch of the Axis Bank mobile app. Even in its first launch, we were amazed on how we could just add the beneficiary account by using merely 3 credentials like bank account number, mobile number and photograph of the person.

 

On this Saturday 'Axis Digital' meet we were amazed with the social inclusion feature in the Ping Pay app that was being launched by Axis Bank on 8th May 2015. At first we were being called upon to attend the meet on the 9th of May 2015, but eventually it got postponed to 16th May 2015. Therefore, in less than 3 months, Axis Bank has launched the second version of mobile banking app termed as Ping Pay app. For this event also I was not able to reach on time, but I managed to be at the venue at 10.30 am and that was the time when we all were taken to the conference room. 

As soon as I, entered in the conference room along with a few people and within 5 minutes the event started. This time also, Mr. Pramod was only going to give us the detailed information regarding the Ping Pay app. In that conference room there were screens on the table which showed us the WiFi user name and password of the Axis Bank so that we could make use of it to tweet during the event using #PingPayKaro handle. In this way the Axis Digital event began and this Ping Pay app is being developed by keeping the 20/20 Vision and provide the user friendly access to the customer. 

The interesting features in this Ping Pay app are like we could connect with and transfer money to anyone using the contacts list that is present in our mobile handset and that too with the help of social apps like WeChat, Facebook, Google Plus and many more. Also, as of now the Axis Bank customers can send and receive money, whereas the people who don't have an Axis Bank account can only ask money using this app. So this is the best feature that even the non Axis bank customers can also download the app and get money deposited in their account in a fraction of a second. The recharge mobile facility is available only for the Axis Bank customers and as of now this facility is not available to the non Axis Bank customers.  

My suggestions for this Ping Pay Axis Bank - mobile banking application are as follows:

1. Send and receive money facility should be available to Non Axis Bank customers.

2. If send and receive money facility is made available then it should not cost any charges to either Axis Bank or Non-Axis Bank customers.

3. Recharge mobile Facility should be available to Non-Axis Bank customers.

4. The utility Bill payment service should also be available to Non-Axis and Axis Bank customers.

5. The switching between the text and internet version should be available within this Ping Pay App. (It is costlier, but this functionality must be available in case of emergency.)

6. Trading feature must be added in such a way that user can keep track of at least 5 scripts within the app. So that the user can keep track of the changes in any of the 5 select company share prices.

Conclusive views about the "Ek Nayi League" launched by Mr. Kapil Dev.

This is my entry to the contest #EkNayiLeague conducted by Indiblogger.in.

Foremost of all, I am really glad that our legend Mr. Kapil Dev has made a debut on twitter and that too for the promotion of a new league termed as "Ek Nayi League". At first, he started following the celebrities and later he put up a promotional video regarding the "EkNayiLeague. In the very first promotional video, he has spoken about the 'Hit Wicket' concept which means literally bringing yourself under erroneous conditions. Hence, he supposes that if an individual plays this league with total commitment and heartfelt opinions, then the soul will surely be in the circumstances similar to that of the 'Hit Wicket' concept. 

In the second promotional picture, he is speaking about retirement of M. S. Dhoni and insists not retire by explaining his experience prior to the retirement decision. After winning the cricket world cup in the year 1983, Kapil Dev discussed about his retirement from cricket with the evergreen legend of Bollywood Mr. Dev Anand and at that time Dev Anand said to him that, "No, Kapil you should not retire. Since legends never retire". At the end of this video, the legendary cricketer says that if you play the league that is about to be started by me with full of your heartfelt feelings, then it is for certain that you will lose this league game programme. 

In the third promotional video, the legendary cricketer is talking about the tennis player Sania Mirza and he states that he is really proud of her performance, success and achievements. Also, he had an argument with some foreign people regarding her success. He explained that in India there are only 300 female participants in the game of tennis and when Sania Mirza makes it to the top 20 players of the world ranking then this is certainly a big accolade for the nation as well as a proud feeling for every Indian.

In the fourth video, the legendary cricketer is talking about the rich and hard working people and especially about those people who earned huge success at a very young age. To them also, he says that if they play his league with full heartfelt feeling, then they would also lose the game. 

At last, in the fifth video, the legendary cricketer is talking about the most popular show, "Comedy Nights with Kapil" and he also specifies that he is a great fan of the show as well as the hard work done by the host, Kapil Sharma.  

Hence, after watching all these videos, I think that the legendary cricketer, Mr. Kapil Dev, is talking about a new show where all the celebrities will play this #EkNayiLeague with full heartfelt feelings and they need to lose this game just for offering some help to the people who bear immense sporting talent but they don't have enough resources to represent our Nation at the world level or at least live their rest of the life with proud feeling of bearing an excellent sporting talent in them. In short, #EkNayiLeague will be an entertainment show where the celebrities and rich personalities will offer some help to the sporting talent in India.

The important thing to celebrate every moment is to keep in touch with everyone and enjoy the company.

Few years ago, we the people used to have a lot of time to talk to each other and almost everyone was keen enough to know all the things happening in their surroundings. But today, the case is such that the people are only connected to their friends and relatives and that too electronically. I mean to say, we all use the social media sites and the applications which keeps us connected with the friends and relatives at all the times. Also it is the fact that every individual today follows a very hectic and rigorous work schedule which eventually allows only few minutes of free time.  
 

The free time is of no use during the week days and on weekends the days pass by as if it is only a one day instead of two. Both the weekend days, Saturday and Sunday are not helpful if you have planned to meet the relatives and friends both at the same time. We need to plan in such a way that we get the ample time to spend with both of them in equal amount, not less not more. But the thing is that this is the moment which will keep us electrified throughout the week and also it is a good thing to keep in touch with everyone.  

Gone are the days, when we used to know almost everyone living in our surroundings and discuss it with our parents. Now days, I think the youth has no time to spend it in knowing the people living around their concrete homes. But according to me this the real moment where the youth of today should invest their time and take pride in having conversation with their friends, relatives and people living in their society. In this way, all we need to do is keep in touch with everyone and the celebrating moments will arrive since because the youth would be interacting with the real world and in person as well. 

Fortunately, I try my best to keep in touch with my friends and relatives and obviously, at times I fail to keep in touch with some but never forget them and meet them in person as early as possible. Till then, the social media apps are the only ones which helps us to be in touch with our near and dear ones and we are at least able to celebrate the moments that come our way. 

Fortunately, the Kolte Patil Developers are exactly following the same and they are not constructing homes but they are creating a society where everyone can come together and celebrate every day and every moment without any big occasion. Now is the time, to “#CelebrateLifeAtIvy by owning a dream home at Ivy estate, an 85 acre estate with 34 acres of greenery and open spaces. Join the 1600 happy families already living here. Check out this walkthrough video and decide for yourself.”

At times there are things that make us celebrate everyday rather than just celebrating the big occasions.

We all are human beings and we love to live in a society rather than spending life alone. Today, there are people who are busy due to their busy office hours and the hectic work schedule they follow but this doesn’t mean that such people are rude hearted and possess rude behaviour both at the same time. Well, it is obvious that this thought comes in to the mind of every individual living in the society since we always see such people celebrating only the bigger occasions rather than celebrating every day. Therefore, in this blog post, I am going to mention the important things that make me celebrate every moment rather than just celebrating the bigger occasions.
 

The first important thing that I feel necessary is the self satisfaction with whatever work I do. Well, according to me I am never satisfied with the work that I do but there are some cases where I need to celebrate instead of knowing that a little effort could have brought some more credentials to my work. Therefore, It is the moment to celebrate since the task has been accomplished and so are the results. At such point of time, it is necessary not only for an individual like me to celebrate the moment but according to me every individual should enjoy with the work that has been accomplished.  

The next important thing is that we should offer our family members a living place which is termed as a perfect home. In this home, we all can talk softly, enjoy each and every occasion whether it is small or big, at times fight with our near ones so that each one of us gives best of their efforts and succeed ahead in life just for living a happy life. Also the main thing in our lives should be to cherish every family member’s efforts rather than their achievements. In this way, if the member like me who is never satisfied with his own efforts, will eventually come to know that there are moments in life where I need to enjoy and celebrate each of those rather than waiting to celebrate only the bigger ones.  

Hence, everyone one of should try to make our family member feel proud of their efforts and not of the achievements. According to me if achievements are going to be cherished then it deflects the efforts given by each and every individual living in our family. Interestingly, if this thing is followed in every family of our society then there will be no single moment left without celebration. 

Fortunately, the Kolte Patil Developers are exactly following the same and they are not constructing homes but they are creating a society where everyone can come together and celebrate every day and every moment without any big occasion. Now is the time, to “#CelebrateLifeAtIvy by owning a dream home at Ivy estate, an 85 acre estate with 34 acres of greenery and open spaces. Join the 1600 happy families already living here.
