Saying that I am bad at keeping in touch would be an understatement. I suck! And I have always envied people who can do this with as much ease as is needed to brush your teeth! And I personally consider this as one of the biggest virtues a [...]

Movie Review: Aamir - Excellent cinema!

Aamir is a low budget movie with only one actor. Yes, the movie revolves around a day of the protagonist played by Rajeev Khandelwal, a famous TV artiste, who is debuting with this movie by Rajkumar Gupta.
The movie does not have big names associated with it. But, it does have a great story line and [...]

Who is beautiful?

Did you know that 4 out of 5 American women say that they are dissatisfied with the way they look?
Beautiful is a term perenially associated with women! Women are “supposed” to be beautiful or else they feel incomplete and inadequate! No woman can ever be satisfied if she does not manage to garner enough male attention [...]

Movie Review: Thoda pyaar, Thoda magic - Not that impressive

After Hum-Tum, Ta ra rum pum and decent promos, Thoda pyaar, thoda magic was much awaited by adults and children alike - Adults for a glimpse of the crackling Saif-Rani chemistry once more and children for the four cute children, who promise a lot of fun and frolic.
Alas, the movie fails in both! Saif and Rani do [...]

On a break…

Dear Readers,
I guess all good things in life are good only when used in moderation. I have been involved with my blog so much during the past one year and more that I feel I have neglected some things in life that I should have not. Its time to now concentrate a little more on [...]

Thinking…

Thinking about love. Thinking about separation. Thinking about distance. Thinking about pain and having to let go of a lot of things. About keeping tears from flowing. Thinking about the future. Thinking about layoffs. Thinking about how the next few months will unfold. Thinking about decisions, doubts, directions. Opportunities that I let go for much better things that [...]

Splitsvilla or Disgustsvilla

[Photo courtesy: MTV Website]
I feel so disgusted… ever since I watched this show on MTV, called Splitsvilla! I think it is grossly demeaning to women… even though these women chose to demean themselves, for what??? 5 Lac rupees and a chance to host MTV show.
Ok, before I go on that path, let me tell you what [...]

Both the movies belonged to a different Genre. While Kora kagaz was serious cinema, with brilliant performances, Boot Polish was a serious movie with shades of comedy and addressed the grave issue of poverty!
Now for [...]
