Dear friends,
For many years I have remained in seclusion to pursue my goals of music creation, poetry creation and learning related computer science, webpage design and blog-publication. While doing that I have also spent many hours in practicing engineering and project management. So the seclusion was not a choice, it just happened. One day I wake up and a decade has gone by. Some think I have become unsocial, some think I have become too proud, and some think I have died, and a ghost-creator is publishing with my name. None of these is true. I very much like to be social, but because of my neglecting to stay in touch, it is difficult for me ‘Look Social’. I am just a laborer of art.Many don’t know what I look like recently. Many don’t know how I spend my time and what is involved in my work. By these pictures, and more pictures in coming posts, it will give you some idea.
Thanks again for making my blogs and websites so successful.Posted by Ghanshyam Thakkar

Film: Moghal-e-Azam (The Great Moghal) 1960
Moghal-e-Azam is one of the greatest films made in India (Bollywood). The back drop is the empire of The Great King Akabar of Persian origin who ruled over a large part of India in 15th century.
Prince Salim falls in love with the Entertainer-Laureate (singer/dancer) of the kingdom Anarkali, and wants to marry her. When prohibited by the father, the son rebels against his father, and loses. Anarkali gets a death penalty by putting her between a brick-wall. This tragic song was filmed at the time when she was taken away for the death by the soldiers.
While the king and prince are real, Anarkali and the love story is a fiction.
The music composer Naushad is one of the greatest music composers of Indian films. He was one of the pioneers in arranging his compositions appropriate for films, by merging Indian classical and folk music and western orchestration. Being a Muslim of the Persian origin himself was very successful in creating Moghal atmosphere.
In order to create proper atmosphere, I have made a Sarangi-like instrument on my synthesizer. Sarangi is an Indian Violin used specifically in this type of music.
I hope you like my music arrangement, and performance.
Oasis Thacker’s Hit List Ghanshyam Thakkar’s Hit List
Hi friends,Don’t worry; this is not God-Father’s Mafia Hit-List.When we put a website, or blog posts in this cyber galaxy, we don’t know who will visit these sites, and from which part of the world. Isn’t it a wonderful feeling that someone I don’t know, in a far-far away land, is clicking on my website, or on my blog post and reading my poem, or listening to my music, or smiling because he or she read something humorous on my blog, or watched a video!In February of this year, I had some changes made in my web hosting account. Recently when I visited the stats, I found some interesting information. In one section, it shows how many hits came from which country, and which country requested how many pages. This was fascinating to me. Some countries like Russia really (pleasantly) surprised me.I hope you keep visiting my websites and blogs.
Thank you.

Too many cable news channels, too many news blogs and news papers. Still, at the end of the day, we don’t know what is going on. Nothing but confusion and ambiguity. From time to time, Oasis News & Commentary will proudly add to such confusion and ambiguity, while making you smile.

In part –1 you saw how Oasis made his way to the White House State Dinner in honor of India’s Prime Minister Singh. In this segment he tries to socialize with two very famous music personalities, A.R.Rahman, and Jennifer Hudson. While trying to be nice to both of his favorite music stars; Oasis is not able to hide his jealousy. He also shows of his music number, because this is his fantasy.
