'Rakhi Ka Swayamvar'

Thu, Jul 30 12:48 PM
Mumbai, July 30 (IANS) Samir Nair, CEO of NDTV Imagine, says that the police complaint filed against item girl Rakhi Sawant and five others linked to the reality show 'Rakhi Ka Swayamvar' for infringement of copyright won't affect the live telecast of the wedding Sunday.
'We're telecasting the marriage deferred - live (minutes after actual shooting) and we don't anticipate any trouble. This guy from Jaipur (Gaurav Tiwari) filed a case against us in a district court. They passed an order against him. Then he moved to the high court. His case was dismissed from there,' Nair told IANS.
'Now he has filed a criminal case against us. Our legal team is looking into it as we speak. Strange that the case has gone from civil to criminal. This guy runs a portal and claims he owns the word 'swayamvar'. It's like me claiming I own the word Ramayan or Mahabharat. There's shadi-com. So we can't do soap with the word shaadi?'
The show 'Rakhi Ka Swayamvar', through which Rakhi decided to find her life partner, is on its last leg now. She will be tying the knot with her chosen groom Sunday in the presence of family, friends as well as officials from the channel.

Who will be Rakhi Sawant`s husband?

Jaipur, July 29 (PTI) Charismatic Jaipur royal Rajmata Gayatri Devi, a three-time MP and who was once named as ''World''s Ten Most Beautiful Women'' by ''Vogue'' magazine, died here today following a prolonged illness. She was 90.
Gayatri, who became an extremely successful politician, breathed her last at Satokben Durlabh Memorial Hospital where she was readmitted yesterday for chest infection after she was discharged a few days ago. "She recovered from her gastrointestinal problems but yesterday she was detected with a lung infection.
Her condition deteriorated this morning and she breathed her last at around 1600 hrs," said Dr Subhash Kala, who was attending on her. It was a tragic irony that Gayatri Devi passed away just a day after actress and beauty Leela Naidu died in Mumbai also after prolonged illness.
The prestigious fashion magazine Vogue had named Gayatri Devi as one of the 10 most beautiful women in the world along with Leela. Married to late Sawai Man Singh II, Gayatri''s son Prince Jagat Singh died in 1997 and she is survived by her two grand children Rajkumari Lalitya Kumari and Dev Raj Singh.
Celebrated for her classical beauty and something of a fashion icon in her adulthood, Gayatri Devi won the Lok Sabha seat thrice in 1962, 1967 and 1971. She stood as the candidate of Swatantra party founded by India''s last Governor General C Rajagopalachari against the Congress nominee, an action which infuriated the then prime minister Indira Gandhi who retaliated in 1971 by abolishing the privy purses, and stopping all royal privileges, breaking the treaties agreed upon in 1947.
Gayatri Devi was accused of breaking tax laws, and served 5 months in Tihar Jail in Delhi during the Emergency. She retired from politics after that experience.

Poem

Always
When you need a shoulder to cry on,

Remember that I have a warm embrace,

Ready to offer comfort.

When you think I'm being too tough,

Remember that which does not kill you

Makes you stronger.

When you need a friend to listen,

Remember that I am here for you,

Always.

When you doubt me,

Remember that I once knelt at your feet,

Washing them in service to you.

When you lose faith in yourself,

Remember that I never did,

Nor ever will.

by Tara Simms

To Day Quotes

" If you have built castles in the air, Your work need not be lost. That is where they should be. Now put the foundation under them."

Henry David Thoreau

The Life

Eyes to see the wondrous light,

Light to guide us through the night.

Touching, guiding, with our skin.

Joyful heart with love within.

Everyday, I come out and see.

Come out and see all the glee that's in me.

As I pray, I see in the air,

See in the air all the happiness there.

Faithful spirits, careful minds.

All of us his love combines.

He has given hope to strife,

Guide us, lead the righteous life.

Everyday, I come out and see.

Come out and see all the glee that's in me.

As I pray, I see in the air,

See in the air all the happiness there.

Here to stay, I look all around.

Look all around at your sound and the ground.

You to me, you're God of my life.

God of my new everlasting pure life.
