"Hum Hai Rahi Pyaar ke and Mahesh Saab's clairvoyance"

Hey, I dunno how many of guys have watched that movie " Hum Hai Rahi Pyaar Ke" and if yes the circumstances which forced you or under whose influence you watched it. But there is a scene in that movie in which Aamir Khan's cloth manufacturing company based somewhere in Ulhasnagar has to deliver a certain quantity of clothes for one Sindhi guy ( One inconsequential Dilip Tahil, in a perpetually Sindhi ham mode). If he( Aamir) fails to do so then his company( actually his elder sister's company which he takes care of) would be taken over by the mean and menacing Sindhi (This guy, the Sindhi wishes to trade his daughter, a shemale , Navneet Nishan to Aamir Khan's character, for he(Sindhi) can't bear the ignominy of parenting such a daughter(or so it feels like 90% of the time) anymore).
Like always Aamir's company if filled with non-performers who while away their time discussing about each other's extra marital flings when they find time off from ogling at their handsome boss. So Aamir has to give this motivational speech( putting all the knowledge gained from Bhivandi Institute of Management @ 12 Tukaram Ghorpade Rd, Bhivandi) to his team , that they have to deliver this time and that too at no extra pay,no overtime and finish off the wholesale order of 20 cartons of shirts, 20 of trousers and so forth racing against the clocks of time ( the quintessential Ajanta clock with the huge hanging pendulum). Little did I know that Mahesh Bhatt, the director of this movie which springs so many suprises like torrential downpour on a scorching afternoon in famine struck mid-Maharashtra, had real life consequences.
On Friday the 24th of September 2004, the manager( John a.k.a Aamir) for Global System Design and Testing (my group at Siemens Medical, PA), called the whole team of 12 designers, 10 developers( including yours truly) and 20 manual testers ( who make and break our softwares) for a moving and deeply motivational speech. He told us that we are phasing out our Clinical Solutions Suite to the Beta Site( Client -- Chester County Hospital) on Monday. So there has to be rigorous testing and simulated working of the whole environment on our end in Siemens itself, so that we know whether the software which we have produced can actually be deployed with immediate effect at our client site. The stakes were high ( ~$ 20 million) just like "Hum hai Rahi Pyaar Ke" ( Aamir's company would be no more), our mean and menacing client here had shown us rabbits some carrots , by promising a couple of million more if we can deliver the software ahead of time a week before promised date. Like the workers in Hum Hai Rahi pyaar ke, there were many hands raised for volunteering to work 16 hours, some for 20 hours. We all had a war cry going just like in the movie and all started working. I worked late too till 12 am that night but not for nothing ( paid for all the overtime in addition to the evenings dinner :-)), John couldnt quite motivate like an Aamir, you see, and also come what may, the palate is important to me more than anything). Only difference in the two scenarios is the time which they occured.
So thinking about the turn of events, I just cant help but admire the sheer clairvoyance on the part of Mahesh Bhatt Saab sometime around 10 yrs ago, that he could predict with almost analogical accuracy, such a real life occurance of the scenario in "Hum Hai Rahi Pyaar ke". He is to my mind undoubtedly Freaks Inc. 's official "Nostradamus".
