The British were keen for 30 caliber guns, did not believe in daylight bombing. American experts said 30 caliber was not enough; we had to have 50 caliber, also said daylight bombing was right provided the planes attacked in formation, with 50 caliber guns.

Mind is Stronger Than Muscles
Rajesh Khanna is not muscular.
So was Raj Kapoor and so is Dev Anand.
They were the monarchs in women’s hearts.
Present heroes should think over it.
Meenakumari never bared her navel.
Waheeda Rahman and Nutan followed suit.
They were queens of men’s hearts.
Present heroines may think over it.
Mental caliber of men
And emotional caliber of women
Make them others’ heart throbs.

Against our interests and spirits
Just to show to the world our caliber
And feed our ego without fiscal gain.
