The World We Live In!

Nothing much these days... watched Dus Kahaniyaan yesterday! utter crap movie! don't waste ur time and money... yaar free me bhi mat dekhna! the only good thing abt the movie was that it ended in 2 hour. Heroes season 2 was ended with just 11 episodes! watched back 2 back all episodes last weekend! its good, but too short for a season! they planned for 23 - 24 episodes, but due to writer's guild strike, they had to finish it half-way. the story was well planned and moving in good pace, but in episode 8 only it started shaping. too bad they had to end it in 11 only. hopefully the strike will finish and they can start volume 3 post winter. Well, i did saw Rush Hour 3 on DVD couple of days back, and frankly, didn't like it much. it was ok to watch just for the hack of Jacky and Chris, but story and presentation lacks gripping. its Terminator 3 of the Rush Hour series. Talking abt T3, i just heard that they are producing a TV series on T3 named The Sarah Connors Ch...

Madhuri is back! Just saw Aaja Nachale, The Musical! Yes, the name should be Aaja Nachale, The Musical! Because it is a Musical movie! Most part of the story is shown into songs! But, wait, the presentation is not that u go out of theater for a smoke during songs! Its like u r watching an Opera! A Musical Broadway show! Its a new experiment in Indian Cinema! From the Box Office initial reports, people are not liking it, but no one can predict Indian audience. u never know what they like and what don't! But the movie is really worth watching with entire family! They don't make many family movies these days! And it has Madhuri! Aha! Dhak Dhak Madhuri! She is WOW! She is UUFFFF! She is Ouch! She is still same Madhuri! The story does not support any Dhak Dhak songs, but the way she danced in the movie... u need to see it... i can not explain it in words! Its just Madhuri Magic! Madhuri was more than enough for me to watch 2 hour 21 min movie! And I am not alone! There are m...

He is a terrorist! Yes, that's how people will see him for the rest of his life! His life is ruined forever! Its not innocent until proven guilty, but guilty from the day one! With the international media coverage, its already confirm that he is not going back to the civilized world again; there is no place for him anywhere but in terrorist camp! I am not sure if he has the guts to pull the trigger or go as human bomb and kill innocent people. If he can not do that, he is jobless as there is no other job he can do now! Why am I thinking abut him anyway? Does this has anything to do with me? No and Yes! No because I don't know him, and I don't care what happen to him, its like just another news item to me. Yesterday a building collapsed and till now 28 people are dead, with chances of toll going up. I see 28 innocent people dead, including kids, he is alive! But there are a lot of other reasons which prompt me to think and write about it, the Yes part of its impact on ...

Did anyone miss me here? I don't think so... as I don't think anyone reading my blog... everyone writes there blog like its been read by millions of visitors from across the globe. it may be true for few blogs, which are famous, but not for all. I am sure that apart from me, no one is going to visit my blog. But as the saying goes, u need to be part of the world, keep doing what others are doing. so I decided to continue with my blog. Now for the title, I am back, not only on my blog, but also I am back to India. After a long trip of 4+ years to Singapore, now I am back to India. I am loving it. Its been 3 months now, and I am enjoying it. There were friends and other people in office, telling me not to go back, as I won't be able to adjust in India after spending 4 years of "good" and "safe" and "easy" life. But I was clear about it, I have to adjust, there was no second thought about it in my mind. That is why I am referring it as "...

its 3:37 AM in night, about three hours ago, I just did a search on Google for "Sanmarg", and i could not believe my eyes when I saw a web page link of Sanmarg! Its like a dream come true for me! Stop press!! You must be thinking what Sanmarg is, right ? Well, its a Hindi language newspaper published from Calcutta (now Kolkata), and I grow up reading that everyday! It was a small organization and the newspaper is just 12 pages all daily. So, you may call it a local newspaper, but it has more than 800,000 readership in Eastern India. There are few other newspapers available in Calcutta, like Janasatta, a national Hindi daily from Indian Express group, and Vishwamitra, another local daily. But only Sanmarg knows what Calcutta wants to read in Hindi newspaper. Now, just imagine how I feel with getting an online edition of my newspaper! But this is not all, they are online, but with a difference. Instead of putting up news and articles on their site, they put up exact...

When gulli-danda and kanche (marbles) were more popular than cricket ...When we always had friends to play aais-paais (I Spy), chhepan-chhepai and pitthoo anytime ...When we desperately waited for 'yeh jo hai jindagi'.. When chitrahaar, vikram-baitaal, dada daadi ki kahaniyaan were so fulfilling ... When there was just one tv in every five houses and When bisleris were not sold in the trains and we were worrying if papas will get back into the train in time or not when they were getting down at stations to fill up the water bottle ... When we were going to bed by 9.00pm sharp except for the 'yeh jo hai jindagi' day ... When Holis & Diwalis meant mostly hand-made pakwaans and sweets and moms seeking our help while preparing them... When Maths teachers were not worried of our mummys and papas while slapping/beating us ... When we were exchanging comics and stamps and chacha-chaudaris and billus were our heroes ... When we were in nanihaal...
