Badal raha hai desh, Badal raha hai Kaun Banega Crorepati. [Everything is changing. With great wisdom and great pride, everything is changing. When you are short of time, you can multi-task. The business is the same but the mode of payment has changed. The heart knows its path irrespective of what the world thinks, the dreams know not the difference between night and day.
