OMG nobody has replied here.

Bro, I love astronomy too. Here are few website from where you can start.

1) Buy a decent telescope

http://www.galileotelescope.com/

2) Few Websites

http://beginnersguide.com/astronomy/

http://freeware.intrastar.net/planetarium.htm

http://members.aol.com/kdaly10475/sketch.html

http://www.astrocentral.co.uk/beginners.html

http://members.aol.com/donmfox/begin.html

3) There is one very nice software provided by Galieo Telescope Maker, it's "Perseus", you will get it if you will purchase their telescope or you can purchase it right from it's developer.

One thing, if you are really serious then you will definitely make use of the website mentioned above.

And you can also puchase their telescopes from ebay.in

With best wishes to budding Astronomer

Note: Don't forget to brush-up your optics knowledge.
