Home come The Heroes



Through Monday morning and afternoon, the road from Mumbai’s sahar airport to Wankhede stadium at Marine Drive was bursting at the seams with Mumbaikars of every stripe. Students, officer-goers and cameraman gathered to get the best view of Dhoni and his team. Youngster waved the tricolour, kids sang the slogan ‘ Check De India’ and thousands of cell phones went up to click the most unforgettable memories of cricket history. The road was of 30 km only but it took six hrs to reach the stadium, so we can imagine how the crowd was. There was no cricket at the Wankhede Stadium, yet the area was full of crowd. The stadium began reverberating by the slogan ‘Check De India’. The Yash Raj’s film has really created history and the song has been echoing in everyone’s heart.
MS Dhoni managed a young team and a team that looked up to his captain. Led by a cool captain who urged boys to just enjoy the game and not to think about the result.
Players went out and had a blast and finally got hold of the T20 World Cup.
And the most interesting thing is that sensex scores hits high, U can call it as Dhoni- Yuvraj Effect. Just a week ago, India saw thrilling to six appeals. Even as yuvraj hit six sixes in an over, the BSE sensex soared over 600 pts to cross 16k. But surprisingly on Wednesday morning as Team India prepared to hit the roads of Mumbai, the bulls had already started partying. By this we can say how high is the cricket fever among our people.
Hope this new young team bring more proud to our nation and let us wish them all the best for the Future Cup……………………………

Lords of England- Team India:

After the World Cup defeat, Team India achieves the most awaiting series win against England. India But the only jarring point perhaps would be that the score line read 1-0 instead of 2-0. At some point of time, there were chances of Englishman getting hold of the series by 1-1, but than India getting lucky at Lords because of rain. The 1986 victory was the India’s second series win in England by 2-0, which many of them expected would happen again in 2007. But this series will be very special for the team India after the World Cup loss. had won the series by 1-0 after 21 long years.

Anil Kumble was named Man of the Match, largely for his maiden Test ton, while James Anderson (England) and Zaheer Khan (India) were adjudged Man of the Series of either sides.Despite an inexplicable decision by Rahul Dravid not to enforce follow-on and then a collapse of the Indian top order, England was finally set a target of 500 runs in the third and final Test at the Oval. On the final day, England had chased 500 runs and denied India a 2-0 win in the series. But, the Indians still managed to script a seven-wicket win.

And now in words from Rahul Dravid about the series win and his boys “It makes me feel proud to be captain of this team. Everyone has really contributed to the victory. It’s a fitting tribute after so many years to go home with a victory. It’s what we came here for and we deserve it. Hats off to the boys, they had a great series."

If u are either a cricket fan or not, but still u can always post ur comments for team India on this bolg….

Anil Kumble celebrates his first Test century:

On the day when runs flowed like beer at the Oval and fifties came out just like that and everyone, the icing on the cake n champagne was astonishingly none other than Anil Kumble. But this time he didn’t do it with his amazing balling tactics, but with his Bat. With his not out 110 runs (16*4; 1*6), he had helped India scale their ever highest score total against England in tests series: a mammoth 664. Coming at No:8, just after Dhoni’s thrilling knock out.
At the beginning, match was full of tension, even thought India resumed the game at 316 for four, as the ball was still new. Lakman promptly opened up his repertoire, and timing his shots to perfection. Tendulker was as determined as ever. Meanwhile MS dhoni also made a record for himself as the first Indian wicketkeeper to score 92 in England.
At the end of the day, India played 664 and England was 24/1, with Alaistair Cook and James Anderson on field.

Shankardad Zindabad Review:

Shankardad Zindabad Review:
Shankardada Zindabad, the remake of the Hindi super hit film Lago Raho Munaabhai, had been released and the outcome of the movie is that it lacks energy and entertainment that everyone expected from their super hero Chiranjeevi’s film. It looks as if Prabudeva didn’t work hard on the script and the message of the Gandhigiri was not delivered properly onscreen. Prabudeva is such a director who had made super hits like ‘Nuvvu Vasthanuanthe Nenu Vadhuanthana’, he has the talent but this time it didn’t worked properly. And the biggest minus point of the film is the heroine. Karishma Kotak, does not have acting skills and she is not so attractive. The director made a wrong choice. Dialogues written by Parachoori Brothers were not as punching as their were in the first edition, Shankardada MBBS.
Even thought the film is not up to the expectations, fans are queuing up in lines to see the multistars movie. For the first time, megastar and powerstar acted together onscreen. The guest appearances of Pavan Kalyan, Nagubabu, Allu Arjun, Devi Sri Prasad and Ravi Teja added spirit to the film. Music of Devi Sri Prasad is\mind blowing. Even the second half of the film was little bit boring, Pawan Kalyan's dialogues and a fight sequence, an item number and fast paced songs have lifted the mood. Srikanth’s action as ATM was really good. Chiranjeevi’s performance as Shankardada and his dances as always were excellent.

Congress asks Ramoji group to surrender 'excess land':

Ramoji Rao had received notice to surrender another 1363 acres of excess land from the government. The Land Reforms Tribunal which is headed by the Revenue Divisional Officer of Ranga Reddy district, Manikyala Rao on Wednesday issued notices to eight firms of the group to surrender the excess land within 15 days.
