Especially Our beloved Colonel "TIGER" Venugopal. I will celebrate 31 july every year from now as "The Rise of Soldiers Day" and will call the day as "Inspire"
u r an epitome of an ideal indian woman, i salute u and ur family for the courage that u have shown in this hour of immense tragedy, col.venugopal is not only a hero for ur family but a hero of the entire nation of ours, though i don\\\'t have a brother in reality, but in col.venugopal\\\'s death(supreme sacrifice) i feel i have lost my own brother, the loss is entirely personal, however i would take this opportunity to thank u for giving us an insight into ur personal life, my heart goes to ur young children who have lost their darling and valiant father, but i am sure that u will act as a beacon for ur children and guide them well in their lives, people like col.sahab never die , they are immortal and will always live in our hearts , i am sure the govt. and our great army must be doing their bit for u and ur family, i as a fellow indian can only pray and wish u and ur family all the best for better times ahead.
Hats off to you Mrs. Subhashini Vasant. You have shown courage and strength which defies descriptions. We need to acknowledge the armed forces, hope the goverment does more than the talk and photo-op. People like us who come from a civilian life we just Talk The Talk , but your whole family including your husband you have Walk The Talk.
Respected Maam' Hats of to Col Vasants courage and your belief in whatz destined ....May the Almighty give you and your children the very best in life JAI HIND

Was that a typo...I am not sure if you wanted to say REEL instead of REAL....'neways, I think you are in the wrong forum KR ... please move on to the "movies" section, you insensitive MORON !!
There have been so many messages in admiration and praise of the clear thinking of Mme. Subhasini. Equally, there have been many messages saluting the barevery of the late Colonel saab. I have nothing more to add, only that it seems very very sad that this nice family has ruined. however, i am heartnened to note that the lady has picked up the pieces very well. as someone has pointed out, if things such as souls exist, the Colonel's soul would be at peace. Jai Bharat.
we adore false heroes of cinema and the true heroes of defence forces are always forgotten. otherwise howcome an army major will get a pension of Rs266/ per month. let us start correcting ourselves

it is we who treat these film stars as stars....if we dont give them a damn who will call them stars.....on the other hand we ourselves forget these great martyrs.....then on top of this we blame the media.....just becoz we call them stars the media creates an aura abt these fools......if we were clever enough ndtv would be broke by now!!!!!......

Maam, my salute to late col.saab and also to you who stood beside him all these years of peace and war.May his soul rest in peace and my blessings to your children.
in these columns I have requested now for the thrid time creation of a foundation exclusively devoted for the well being of the families of our great jawans who die for INDIA, THAT IS BHARAT. Industrialist stalwarts such as Ratan Tata, Sunil Mittal, Kumaramangalam birla should collectively start a foundation and people like me will contribute a portion of our annual income for the well being of the jawan's families for all times to come. The only condition is such a foundation should work without any bureaucratic hurdles and shower the best on the families of the NDA officers (who are no less than any MBA from IIMs).They are fearless and have a high level of spiritual and emotional quotient which by and large our IIM graduates might lack. take the case of Col. Venugopal; Quote: "Finally, this is all I have left of him," Subhashini Vasant says, pointing to a wood-and-glass box, about one-and-a- half foot square, within which lies folded the national flag that draped her martyred husband's corpse. shall we allow this as responsible citizens of this great country? regards gopal
