Dr. Aroon Samsi

My father-in-law Dr. Aroon Samsi died on 26th December 2009. He died a poor man with a house which was gifted to him by his father and some investments.
He could have been a millionaire with his talent but chose to work for a government hospital-KEM. He always cared for everybody than himself.
Once he came home climbing the staircase to the 3rd floor and collapsed on the bed the reason he had forced his juniors to take 3 bottles of blood to save a patient. He always used public transport to commute to work. Once there was a bus strike so he decided to walk back and forth from Bandra to KEM hospital.

Engineering Drawing v/s Hindi Films

Hindi films of 70s had the fundamentals of engineering drawing somewhere hidden in them - it starts with a point (Bindu), many points make a line (Rekha), many lines make a plane (love triangle), many planes make a solid (Pathar Ke Insaan, Phool, Sanam etc.).
