Before reels, this is how cricket moments came alive. Thums Up captured attention in a very different way in the 1980s with flicker books featuring Kapil Dev’s iconic shot, shown frame by frame. What began as a simple giveaway soon became a collectible for fans.
Even today, it stands as a reminder that great marketing doesn’t always need scale or technology - just a simple, memorable idea that stays with people.
Who remembers these?

This is the state of Pune's arterial road with 30 min rains.
And our leaders talk of 5000 Cr River Front Devp, London Eye, Bharat Mandapam etc.
Do they know a bit of urban planning?
Are they really aware of the common man's needs?
DO THEY REALLY CARE FOR THE CITY?

The highlight of the Sportstar Aces Awards was when Mr Sunil Gavaskar's voice choked while speaking about Mr Nari Contractor, the recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award
1974 to 1978 I studied in Sri Ramakrishna Misson Vidyalaya, Coimbatore.
Reason to go there :
City colleges fees: Rs 1000 to 3000.
Hotel fees : 200 per month.
In SRMV: (25 kms from city)
College fees: 300
Hotel fees : 75 per month.
Reason to travel by train:
I could not afford even that Hostel fees.
I found a Govt Harijan hostel in city which was free.
But bus fare was 60 paise one way. Monthly Rs. 30.
That also sounded too costly.
A passenger train used to run in that route and its student quarterly pass was Rs. 7.
Reason to talk about this platform:
Train
In: Dep : 5:50 am. Arrival: 6:25 am.
Out: Departure: 6:10 pm. Arrival 6:45 pm.
College started at 9:00 am. Ended any time.
Time to kill:
6:30 am to 9:00 am.
Any time to 6:00 pm.
Average daily 6 hrs.
What I did:
Sat in this Railway platform and studied Maths Physics Chemistry
How did I get BARC job:
My 1000 days and 6000 man hours intense focus on Avagadros, Ohms and Pythagoras
Those days my mother was only earning member of family. Rs. 3 a day. So I had to do all sacrifice to get a degree without denting her arithmetics much. She gave her 4 bangles to pay my college fees.
What I wish to say is:
“Fortunately I was poor”.
Be it college or Career or business
“Patience, Focus, Frugality and Discipline “ Gives slow but sustainable success.
I took my wife to show how a railway platform made a Scientist. Pic :2015.
