Don't know how i have started trusting this page more than anything and anybody on this planet..i feel it allows me to express whatever i want and for how so ever long.. it wont question back or argue..This time am not here to criticise( something am practising to quit), neither am going to discuss the steaming current affair the country is mad about,not a holiday diary..its only about what has gone wrong with me..
what are the most common reasons for frustration to take over our mind? When we fail to follow the schedule we planned,,a mere fight with our friends that requires us to convince them back whole day,lazyness that is not letting us do something,etc..wonder my mental state is being conquered from all sides at once..
After so many years I have structured a busy routine..i wake up, attend college, attend a course, then another..i come back do a little follow up stuff and finally collapse to sleep to continue the loop..Am all alert and excited to whatever shall happen to me in upcoming months..and one day a stampede of negativity traps my mind that all this shall end up into nothing and I would be a fool wondering what went wrong..hughh!! I feel doing nothing and immerse myself into a deep thought procedure..somehow the loop alarms me that deals like these are not tough for me..i’ll sail and achieve..but what should I do to the insomniac nights?
Another problem with me lies in my habbit of making fun or insulting( as they say).i invest my energy all day making others laugh..they do..they enjoy and all at sudden they end up yelling at me that I shouldn’t have said this or that... how is it when your own loved ones dont want to listen anymore, when asking for apology and waiting for things to bounce back normal is the only choice..waiting!! something i have always hated the most..it feels embarrasing..:(
[ my mobile apologised to 7 different people last night..)
my idea of making fun, cracking PJ'S 24*7,laughing unecessarily doesnt mean i hve nothing more purposeful to do..yes! thats what mates around end up concluding.."ye pagal h,, akal kahan h isse,,,ye kya smjhega kisi ko!! ghosh!!
Its only I have priortised my life towards fun and laughter..it makes me go easy,something I wish for everybody around..
This post may appear tainted to some, but this is something bothering me a lot..sometimes I wish I had gun to blow everybody responsible..or better would be to axe myself down..
The kid in this picture has no reason to celeberate freedom because he can’t afford to do even that..but we can..Every 15th aug we like to remember great martyrs such as bhagat singh because we have seen so many films on him n his bold thoughts and prospects have risen him to popularity amongst indian youth…
we like to carve a bhagat singh in each one of us..we like to be known as his follower..he did poetry so do i, .he had great principles and I feel mines are even bigger and greater..but he had the courage to give his thoughts reality and i cant even dream of achieving it and that is why he was bhagat singh and am not..
i show my concern towards the disturbing figures of our population,poverty line,unemployement etc.Discussing and cursing the corrupt administration of our country is as common as watching another film every day..not a good sign either..
Every census will produce more disturbing figures,news focusing to external threat will continue and to bring a REVOLUTION ( as most of our films say) is hard because the word is heroic in itself to use but difficult to implement..
What I can do is I can realize the love for my country..it is one principle that is convenient to adapt..atleast I can avoid saying I hate this country…my expression of love for india should not be limited to just liking I LOVE INDIA on facebook or just whistling at the inspiring lecture from A WEDNESDAY..
Let us hope our film makers will know some day that our LEH, NORTH EAST,the southern beaches,our deserts are potentially beautiful and leave no reason to make useless love stories abroad..
An intelligence study reported that the money generated from piracy of films and games is being used to aid terrorist groups worldwide…is the verdict enough for us to stop doing that..? no its not..because doing so demands us to compromise our luxuries that we are inhabited off..if we could ,then we have all the authority to curse our system,show concern for the sad picture above and express our valuable suggestions..
Think over it.. thinking is another easy job and we have the freedom to do that…
heartiest felicitaion on 64th independence..!!!!!
I live in sector no 21,the first time I ever failed an exam I scored a 21,my bike no plate has a 21,my favorite English song titles ’21 guns’. Most importantly a highlighted clause in my KUNDALI says I’ll get married when I am 21. Significant concern because I’ll be turning 21 this July.. Along with such crazy logics and many others, being 21 means a lot. Am legally declared as adult and awarded with the legal rights of taking decisions myself.
I remember all 25th july’s since I was 6.From 6 to 12, from 12 to 21 I have come a long way..Recalling all gifts since then..Once I was gifted a huge pack of Parle g biscuits by a friend..My love for these biscuits begun when SHAKTIMAAN started endorsing them. Amongst others included some pieces of sea shells brought by another friend from the Andaman some 11 years back..I still have them. But you know what present has excited me the most? Its cash or say “shagun”.
The birthday venues have promoted from school booth canteens to some of town’s best eating places..Have not been able to party with college friends because it falls in summer holidays and I don’t believe in partying 10 days before or after. All the cake cutting ceremonies that once used to be the most thrilling part hardly bring any joy now when am 21. joys that birthdays bring for others happen to me everyday..
My new year begins on 25/07 and this is the day when I take resolutions too.. once I took pledge to work upon my fitness with the next 25th July as the deadline to analyze results..this has been the most disastrous resolution I ever took as it was discarded the next week...last year I pledged to score both my semesters ALL CLEAR that had not happened before in my engineering,, partially successful coz another result is being awaited.. I also once wanted to watch as many good films as I could..Since then I have been watching films almost every day irrespective of whether its summer holidays or autumn season that brings final exams.
At 21, I feel So far in these years I have seen a lot, changed a lot, the dreams have matured from a new bicycle to a successful termination to my graduation with some descent work beyond..yes, that’s what I pledge this 25th..i wish fun around sustains, I continue the good job of watching more and more films (and make others too).a lot to achieve, a lot more to dream I wish to make 2010_2011 the most memorable year..(Delete a 0 and 1 from both and they become 21.)
Few minutes from now, the world will start partying the 21’st anniversary of a genius..CHEERS!!
Am not rating it ,am not reviewing it because am not capable of it. ..am just sharing what an amazing experience i had watching this great film. i had heard a lot about the film,the ones who have seen it, have planned to give it a re watch merely because they have liked it that much or they didn't understand it the first time..after struggling all three days of the weekend i finally managed a ticket for a monday noon..as i expected the hall had a descent strength..all these contributed to lift my excitment even more.. The moment lights went off,the opening scene had an unconscious di caperio,2 kids playing around followed instantly by a scene where a group attempts to steal an idea by designing a dream in another indivisual's mind..the transformation of the events in a dream and their respective effects in reality is a treat to watch.. There is a scene when the city of paris folds itself to half..and to name it wsn't just enough..a dream within a dream within a dream within reality,the logic that says 5 minutes of unconscious state in reality can be visualised of days n even years in that respective dream and the way it is being implemented,.the scene where the lead must complete their job of performing inception before a van hits water splash,supported by haunting backround music..many other nail bitting sequences made me realize at that moment that am watching one of the most stunning films ever made. The film is so engaging that i never did once give a look to my cell fone..i actually didn't want myself to be disturbed or say distracted (as the leads say) for even a moment off the screen..di caoerio's parallel story of his repetative encounters with his kids and dead wife in his dreams,his desperation to go back to his regular life..hard to accept but this parallel story somehow did manage to create emotional bond with the viewers... i know a super natural or a sci fi crime thriller is not supposed to deviate,but the thing is you really can't help sympathising with di caperio's love for his family. i have heard people saying its too complicated,difficult etc.i don't think it was..it was an intelligent film but can be easily grasped if you allow urself to think in a plain manner.. if you try to make further predictions u'll definitely confuse urself. allow ur mind to escape the cheezy bgrade hollywood suspense drama memories then this film is really not an issue to understand.thrilling yes,heisty yes, but along its also an challenge for the viewers to solve various puzzles along with. i havn't had such a splendid experience ever before. sitting their and getting arrested to the happenings on screen is an oppurtunity that comes in years.. this is surely one film that has made me forget the avatar. i don't know wether u agree or not,u hve seen it or not,but this is surely a film i have enjoyed the most in my life. director christopher nolan ( the dark knight, momento,insomnia,prestige) is a real genius...
My experience with eating joints offering northern cuisine hasn’t been worth mentioning..But agra sweets is different. . I order a sandwich and 2 balls of gulab jamun..balls? yes thats what they look,like a ping pong table ball..15 rs each for a ball..( sare aam loot maar!!)but the city is having a nice time with the rains and so am i, not at all in a mood to crib .I can see through the glass a huge poster of the latest telugu release..Telugu cinema is not to be under rated.The state of Andhra Pradesh has 3300 cinema halls!! The film posters on the road dividing are more than the no of street lights..
The roads are owned by the auto rickshaws..You come to hyderabaad and an auto ride through the city is more thrilling than any xbox or ps chase game.they are fearless, can challenge a SUV and even claim to beat it dnt knw how..They can race in wrong side of road,abuse traffic policemen but will dare to reach your destination any way.
Coming out of Golconda fort i hired an auto..
Auto.. to sahib kitna Hyderabad dekhe aap??
Me..zyada nahi..abi ye mera teesra din h..
Auto..sahib aye ho to charminar zarur jana,salarjung museum bhi jana, Birla mandir raat ko bahut sundar dikhta h..

(banjara hills is a posh area in Hyderabad and house to azzharuddin,sania mirza,vvs laxman and many filmstars,politicians,)
Me..(xcited.).chal theek h..mje sath sath bta te rehna.
Ye dekhiye Mahesh babu ka gar..kya zabardast ghar h sahib dekho..
Me..(mahesh babu??!!!! Name sounds of a 70 yr old politician who has build villas,guest houses, with money produced out of fraud.. Later to my surprise i realised Mahesh babu is a telugu superstar and husband to former bollywood actress namrata shirodkar..he is 35 and the sexiest celeb in south india.)
After a few minutes ride he introduced me to bunglows,five stars and also Apollo..one of the largesr hospitals in asia
Me..acha!! aap hindi filme dekhte h??
Auto..bilkul sahib..mane kal hi sharu kaan ka latest picture dekha..OM SHANTI OM..
ME..kya?? use gaye to teen saal ho gye..
Auto..ummm..fir to pta nai.. ye dekho pokhiri ka poster..

Me..hyderabad ka total population kitna hoga??
Auto.. hoga koi 1 crore..bahut janta ati h yahan door door se.. to kaise lag rahe Hyderabad?
Me..badia hai lekin ek baat btao ye traffic aisa kyu h..koi b red light me bhaga raha h,traffic police kuch kr ni rahi..
Auto..(smiling) mere pass license ni h..6 saal se chala raha hun aur gadi ka koi kaagaz b ni bana hua.
Me..isme khushi ki kya baat h?? Ye to galat h..
Auto wala..aap to gar se soch k aye ho ki Hyderabad k khilaaf sochna h.. Hyderabad bura nai h sahib. ye sab yahan choti baat islie h kyu ki Hyderabad bahut bura waqt dekh chukka he.ek time pe yahan hindu muslim me itna tension rehta tha...har roz koi na koi lafda.
Tourist log old Hyderabad me ane ko darte the.bahut se log charminar dekhe bina hi laut jaate the.. Yahan police wale ko 4000 do wo kisi ko b goli maar dega..aisa haal tha..mai khud apne time me bahut badnmaashi kiya hun..hume pta nai hota tha k kya masla (issue) he ,koi bada paalitician bolta tha to hum tod fod kr dete the,aag laga dete the. Lekin ab aisa nai h sahib.ab hume samaj agya he ki ye bade paalitician harami hote he,ye bas apna faeda krna jaante he..mere jaisa bahut log h jo badal gye h..abhi bhi bahut badmaash bhare rehte h aold city me.lekin padaai likaai zaruri h..is se samajh a jati h k in sab lafdo ka koi faeda nahi.aj hamre yahan agar hindu muslim me koi lafda hota he to amne samne baith ke baat khatam ho jati h. Dheere dheere sab teek ho jayega..abi ye saale telangana ka shor macha rahe h,magar dekh lena kuch ni hoga..shanti hi hogi..koi telangana velangana ni banega.. Wo dekho sahib building..110 maale ki ban rahi h(Singapore towers,underconstruction bulding.to be the highest in country after completion) ...5 saal baad dekhna Hyderabad dunia k ache shehro me ayega..
He dropped me and wished me luck ..sahib charminar weekend pe mat jana,,thoda tension rehta h..mon to thur kabhi bi chale jana..
I don’t know wether those bunglaws really belonged to the names he took...i don’t even know wether 120 is reasonable from Golconda fort to madhapur .but i could easily sympathize with his efforts to make me view Hyderabad according to him. 2001 census says Hyderabad is 40 lacs and growth upto 1 crore is hard to digest..i knew the figures but i could also see how desperate he wanted a stranger like me to understand the importance of his place.
The place is madhapur(one of the most crowded here) and its cloudy. I have decided to take a walk around and a camera along has become a habbit.. Over a week since i landed here in Hyderabad. To the best of my effort i have discovered the city extensively as much i could in 9 days.i think i did well because today i had the opportunity to guide a telugu to his destination near by.. The road has a few brands alongside with messy parking facility. 2 kms through and not a single outlet that is unknown to Chandigarh..Broken pavements are adding to my irritation.. Street food has always been an attraction but am strictly adviced to stay away..am told that the customers here are cheated on with beef instead of boneless chicken.Madhapur is a major commercial area and is serving nothing for eating joints with average prices.Hyderabad will cater restaurants with nice ambience only if you have your debit cards loaded with heavy amounts. Roaming down the streets am reminded more, i guess am in a strong mood of comparing the two towns now.Such a thought always gets triggered with heavy favourism to your hometown. Am really missing the wide Chandigarh roads and massive green cover alongside. Chandigarh is more organised.like we have demarcations amongst places,,a specified area that is the house to the best of coaching institiutes in the region,a separate place for all of restaurants and a similar big place for shopping. But everything is scattered here in Hyderabad.May be because its an older town and the task is not easy to manage such places.The city has no sense of traffic..i have witnessed less than 2 percent wearing helmets.. !!! laugh!!!! Have more!! License is no issue,many taxies and auto rickshaws are running even without registeration papers.. What more joyous is to watch streaming no of buildings to major IT companies which is an easy view here and quiet rare back home. The major IT parks include the hi tech city,the Amadeus IT park,mind space etc. Being an IT aspirant i can’t get IT brands off my head..It is always on priority for me to walk miles in order to have a glimpse of every company campus..Believe me watching MICROSOFT campus so closely for the first time is worth cherishing..Also the CYBER TOWer in the heart of Hyderabad gives a splendid view.
Our visit to the ramouji film city was disappointing and boring too. We couldn’t help insulting the so called largest film city of the world as outdated and waisted until a localite stranger interfered and said “nayi pasand to ghar pe rehna tha..!!” well i could understand his state since i feel the same when somebody speaks against Chandigarh.. that is obvious and pardonable too..isn’t it?? Loving your home town is a challenging trait and is earned by few..Slowly It is becoming a reason for me to respect hyderabad for what so ever it looks alike.\ now you all might wonder that what makes the sense for cursing hyderabaad and titling as 'IN LOVE WITH'..' on my way back from the golconda fort a chat with a local auto rickshaw driver made me realize the tremendous emotion people have here for their place. for now its raining,the city looks beautiful and my camera is ready. will surely share about the auto rickshaw experience and many more in my next post....
In Hyderabad raavan is one of the few hindi films that was talked about amongst die hard telugu cinema fans here,and don’t know how the film was one of reasons for me to schedule my holiday accordingly.
To my shock raavan by one of india’s greatest film makers is a complete lost film . The film do generously shares some instanceS from epic Indian tale RAMAYANA but hardly intends to leave an impact on.The disturbing facts include predictable screenplay and a full no sense performance by the lead abhishiek.. Abi as beera is so tainted and deviated that his attempt to create scary
gestures appear funny and never does he even once builts tension on screen.Rather,southern star vikram as dev is more appealing with his silence,but he too finds it odious to over come poor characterisation by the writers.Even in some scenes dev appears more dangerous and villainous than raavan.
Aishwerya rai as raaginin that was supposed to be the central character of the film and the big reason for all the bloody conflicts does nothing enough..she reminds us of the actresses of the 70’s that screamed and shouted for mercy but gave no logical contribution to the films craft..Among performances surprise show by govinda raises a few laughs and he along with ravi kishen do make the film a little yet worthy reason not to leave film in between..
The cinematography by santosh sivan is beautiful with a stunning coverage of the forests but still some head spinning camera movements are unbearable that sometimes confuse about the happenings on screen.
The only enjoyable moments in the film are provided by AR rahman’s haunting background music that successfully lift the mood of the film to the tension building in the dense green cover..
Also mani ratnam's attempt to give a different perception to the characters of RAM and rAAVAN is well intended but won't be understood by all.
the 5 mins portion before the climax do create some interest when suspicious dev demands a polygraphic test on his wife,but sadly 5 mins are not capable enough to balance the inconsistencies in the rest..
on the whole mani ratnam’s raavan emerges as a big dissapointment.It is an unimportant film that will surely won’t be discussed or remembered.. Another instance where Indian filmamkers take their working style for guarranted..Hope this one remains the only spoiler by mani ratnam..
so here i am again...After writing reviews,translating legendary poetry work to crap,short stories, evrything that defines my non sense skill of litterature i decided to write next without any thought procedure..
( actually am too lazy to think this time)!!!
Yes,,i didn't plan,had no thoughts of what i'll write.... i had just penned or say keyed my thoughts..PJ!!...so what,, if the country is going crazy y shouldn't i?? (another PJ.. was that required?/)
Since I came prepared to write without any motive or theme,what would have been easier than just discussing myself…(can’t discuss others publicily..)
The monsoons have knocked and before i could plan a bath out i realized it was a pre-monsoon and ended the next evening...The city had a black out that night and i really wasn't feeling sleepy partially because of thunder noise that i hate and partially due to the excitement for the showery month ahead that is yet to begin...What more could have i done when my cell phone battery died out and my ipod had nothing new to give pleasure..
i declared my state as idle and don't know how i decided to think about myself,my interests,dislikes, everything that am already was familiar with..It did happen because thinking about myself makes me feel important.. That is the reason why i decided to write my next post about myself only..don't know what but it had to do with me...
K Let us see where we end up…I’ll start by answering some questions that am asked everyday..take it as an oppurtunity…( I don’t do it daily....)
WHY DO I CRITICISE FILMS ?? the answer is i don't criticise , i hate criticism.. i don't like to be called as a critic..
I think criticism is a way to xpress your jealousy.. Criticising is the easiest job in the world...in my case, i love films,i like to write about them.. i like to share what i like and dislike about.. I can recommend to watch a particular film but i'll never ask to avoid one..That is something to be decided indivisually, and that is why i don't give stars or rating or marks or whatesoever..
Watching films is my hobby,that doesn't mean it is the only thing i love to do..Everyone watches films but very few try to understand them..and the ones who do, have a wiser perception towards happenings around..(atleast I think so).My passion for films has driven me crazy such that a friend once taunted me " tu to apni girlfriend ko filme dikha dikha k maar dega" to which i replied aS 'pehle bane to sahi"";);););)
Now many people consider it as a crisis of my life that I NEVER HAD A GIRLFRIEND....reasons many..
Firstly i don't get along well with girls...actually am scared of their habbit when they keep suspecting evry other frank boy as their follower dying to become a lover..u don’t agree?? I had experienced way back..i got to know this girl named……( doesn’t matter), we shared some general moments,discussed work and to my surprise weeks later the entire campus rumoured me with a similar blame..ghosh!!!! I didn’t even clarified because I thought It wasn’t required..and their i recited one of most common hindi film dialogues.."kya ek ladka aur ek ladki dost nai ho sakte"....OH K OH K.. i apologise for this wierd logic,,wierd yet applicable to sensless brains..
I do have some female friends and i prefer verifying my fear before evry new girl i get to talk with..and the ones i do ,i think are sensible enough to make the difference..
secondly,a girlfriend is an expensive affair..friends are fine..atleast i can ask my female friend to pay for herself...(does that mean am a miser..??)
if u find the above as excuses and not reasons then watch out for this one..am not capable;);)..the word CAPABILITY here is not supposed to question my masculinity.
it simply states that am not gifted with the DIVINE senses to visualise the hindi movie lyrics when they potrayl the bond between aliens and not humans.its commendable when some lines potentially reflect our lives,, (believe me,some really do) but songs are a mere part of our lives,,some more things are to be taken care of along..
also I think………!!!!!!!
I think kafi hai….i doubt this is the most unimportant peice of writing by anybody…it had nothing to tell genuine and breaches my own principles that I have mentioned on my page top…
Don’t expect any sequels such as part 2 ,3 to it…( unless I feel idle again)… take care and let me think of some worthy title...
(keep wondering why some lines were highlighted..)
"ye janta do meethe vado ki bhukhi h,kisi bhi rang ka jhanda utha legi"
Like a typical prakash jha film RAJNEETI too is supported by taunting format of dialogues that are often rewarded back by whistles and energic ovations.
rajneeti is a worthy take on manipulative twists and turns that are engaging and successfully built gripping interest for long.
Politics has always been a difficult and boring topic for indian films,but rajneeti stands out as an exception.What makes the film surprising is the fact that the characters are all ruthless and greedy as they are supposed to be in a political tale.
Here a wide influence of epic indian tale MAHABHARTA can be realized since the characters behave extensively like that such as ajay devgn as KARNA,ranbir kapoor as ARjuna,manoj bajpayee as DURYODHNA, and nana patekar appearing in every other scene reminds you of part BHEESHM and part KRISHNA.Also a little influence of THE GODFATHER style scripting should not be ignored..
Post interval the film is unecessarily exxagerated with a series of assassinations that were not required and the love relations covering ranbir ,katrina,arjun rampal and foriegn actress sarah only deviate and make the film lengthy. Also its partial of the writers awarding wide space to ranbir falling short for ajay devgan, who was introduced as the dalit leader with a bang..He does nothing apart from standing quitely next to manoj bajpayee..
Of the cast it was manoj bajpayee as virendra pratap who performs the best and shines as the insolent leader..His act appears realistic and is hard to get off your heads since he shares some of films best scenes..This is the only feature that’ll be reminded for years.
The story that starts off engagingly,leads to a dull and partially justified climax.
Rajneeti can still be enjoyed because films like these are not made every year n india. its not as good as the omkara or sarkar,but a huge national award winning cast won't dissapoint and watching them together makes the film worth a watch..
In all,, the film faces two shortcomings, a bit lengthy second half and the fact that 2 of potentially best actors in the country nana patekar and ajay devgan are wasted.
If these can be forgiven,Rajneeti is entertaining and not to be missed.
There is a scene in KITES where disheartened Hritik cries out in the open desert..The act is so heartwarmingly performed that i couldn't help myself applauding the man for the class of skills he has attained..Sadly,this is the only impeccable moment as such in the film..Coming out of KITES i felt like a genius as i could predict the 2hrs show in the very first 15 min..
The story by Rakesh roshan is so tainted and boring that it makes the film sluggish at many times..i still can't make out what went wrong to genius filmaker ANurag basu's senses accept working on this..For me the music isn’t great..Don’t know why Rajesh roshan was forcefully made to use a monotonous yet hummable tone in the backround throughout in each and every scene..
Kites isn't a hard watch crediting all to director for creating some rememberable scenes such as the one where both the leads sit on a roof top of a vegas caper confessing their intentions of betraying their spouses, another scene where they make shadows out of hand gestures on a wall and equally enjoyable is a song with hritik's electrifying dance moves. But the most endearing scenes are given by ayankar bose(cinematographer) with his stunning captures of vegas towers glittering with colours at night...though he had limited to do at the mexican deserts still he manages to attempt some daring camera movements..
..Am happy because the film wasn't lenghty,2hrs is an easy watch..also it wasn't directed by rakesh roshan,else he would have messed up the entire show as he and his writers did with the story..
kites isn't a bad film but not a great watch either...the film won't give any joy at home on your computer screens..its a strict theatre watch..the film surely dissappoints because for me anurag basu's another film ''GANGSTER'' is the best indian film made in the last decade,and kites stays far from it. Kites is all about looks,looks of foreign locations,fancy clothing,and even steaming bodies of HRITIK and BARBARA and unnecessary over blown action sequences reminding you of Rohit shetty’s films.. Unfortunately the time has gone when such attributes were enough to win over the audiences..Today Indian cinema too demands content..
Not going for further micro analysis I’ll recommend it for a tolerable watch, but preferable over HOUSEFULL anyday anytime..
