Dil Bole Hadipaa! Dimag Bole Uttapaa

http://movies.indiatimes.com/photo.cms?msid=5021595
Well, I liked the movie songs and Rani's screen presence. Never mind her english as Veera and short stature with husky voice in the beard clad Sardarji(whom we are yet to see as of now as a Sardar in real life!). Yash Raj movies are always about foot tapping beats, song & dance with the repeated and enforced reminder of Indian culture only bordered around Punjab! ( Will some one tell Chopra there are other states and cultures too...? )
Story line - borrowed from the West? Doesn't matter! We borrow sometimes and some times they do. What is original anyway? But it would have been better if we acknowledge the one who first creates it. Sorry, that was never the habit.
Cast - as usual it is about selling dreams and dreams are sold with smooth and presentable faces else it is nightmare. Ha..! Shahid delivers the eye-candy for teeny bloopers for both the sexes. Rani - at least she tried a hand at comedy single handedly like Sreedevi and Juhi Chawla. Dilip Tahil, Poonam Dhillon, Anupam Kher - props. Rakhi Sawant - better managed as oomph factor for a song and Veera's friend to cheer and be prodigal in desi-matka-jhatka style. Sherlyn Chopra - much awaited debut of "the most downloaded Internet Diva" was not so impressive with acting, dialogue or skin show, in fact I felt she had cold when she spoke. My vote goes for Mallika Sherawat on those parameters in that genre.
Technicalities(Sound, Camera etc.) - Good work.
Direction - Fine! Under Yash-Raj banner it seems apt as expected, only I missed foreign locales in volume.
Overall - time pass for people who have nothing to do and want nothing to think too! I guess I could have had a dash of uttapaa with some madrasi "thenga" chutney! :P

Eye twitching & Myths

For the last 4 days, my left-eye is twitiching. It has been almost 3 years it happened. Well I did experience some bad-luck the last time it happened, but when was good luck on my side anyways :P ? But I went of searching on the net about superstition & eye twitching & as usual google came up with millions of links. Why is google so good in searching ? Millions of people suffer from eye twitching – in some it may be intermittent, brought on by a sudden increase of stress or sleeplessness. In others, it’s more pronounced and can interfere with day to day life. Regardless of which category a person falls into, there’s a goldmine of superstitions that revolve around eye twitching. In fact eye twitching ranks up there with itchy palms and hiccups as the most superstition prone condition! Each culture seems to have its own take on the deeper significance of eye twitching. In China for instance, where superstitions and myths frequently cross over into modern living, the chief superst

Work From Home... but for Whom?

COVID 19, undoubtedly has changed the world's diaspora. For ages, many aspects have changed man's life. From his days of foraging and vagabond lifestyle during the Homo-Sapien growth phase to discovering fire or farming and more. But all changes on man's life (pardon me, today it may sounds sexist, but I am habituated to old English style, so I mean mankind or all the humans) have not only brought a new venom but also a nectar that though, has not made him immortal but has remained with him for as long as possible. Glancing about those history is unwarranted on this post so I'll straight away jump to three major changes in man's life -  The industrial era The technology and service era The post COVID era What I can express is known by many very well, but something exclusive I can share here is, what industrial era brought to man's life is the idea of a job . Robert Kiyosaki, in his book Rich Dad, Poor Dad , which I read somewhere in 1999, has vividly expressed t

Living a Lie is a Bliss - All is well...

 "Living a Lie is a Bliss", isn't it? Well I am not saying we should lie to people but for many, many aspects lying to yourself is indeed a better way of avoiding depression, sorrow, disappointment and fueling optimism at large. I might sound as suggesting a prescription but the real world asks you to be in a Bliss and live a lie whenever possible. Your lies will not be tolerated but you living a lie is very much accepted. From the very world we call it as ours, our family, our relatives, our friends and dear ones to the world of profession, business, place where commercial transaction is involved from job to things we buy for life, for surviving, everywhere you are expected not to lie but if you are living a lie, then you are welcomed. Yes! Its the hypocrite world. You cannot stand alone by refusing to accept the life that is given to you by everybody including the government. We live to fulfill this lie. What happens if we refuse to accept the lie around us? Take for ex
