Review - Rajneeti
I watched Rajneeti last night. Prakash Jha has done it again. I would not waste time and space saying anything what others have already said or written about it. I just have three things to say about it:
· Fuck man, Shruti Seth was in the movie. Shruti Seth. You don’t know Shruti Seth? She was the girl who accused Arjun Rampal with rape charges. Oh Gosh!! She was so, so hot in that scene. I know that you know what I am talking about. I have seen her so many times the way she was there in the movie. Okay not so much of seen as imagined. Okay only imagined but the point is Prakash Jha has given what I wanted ever since my childhood.
· Mr Prakash Jha, we are not interested in the kiss scenes of that Maa wala character and the Foreigner. We wanted Katrina Kaif. We deserved this atleast after a 2hours 50 min movie. I understand you did your best under the given Salmanian circumstances but c’mon man, we all were waiting for it. If not her then atleast Shruti Seth. You let me down there Mister.
· It’s so amazes me why the fertility rate in Bollywood is 100%. I mean every time there is a sex, next scene you get the news of pregnancy. People try for months in real life and Naseeruddin Shah did it in one night. I mean at that age too. And what I really appreciate is Arjun Rampal’s performance, the way he performed with all the performance pressure. I mean impregnating someone on the first night is really something. Isn’t it?
Apart from this movie is worth watching. First half is amazing and quite a lot gripping but second half loose track in middle. Overall a must watch.

Bollywood Trivia
Bollywood Trivia: Bollywood of 90’s was a representative of the country’s state at that time. India opened its economy and we as a nation were feeling confident and optimistic. Songs like ‘Tujhe Mirchi lagi to mein kya karoon’ denotes the changed Foreign Policy of India rubbing shoulders with all the superpowers of the world. Dialogues like – “Harkar Jeetne wale ko baazigar kehte” showed the optimism we had in our blood. It also showed the state of Indian Cricket. Such was the deepness of the 90’s Bollywood.
Bollywod Trivia: The bollywood of 90's was daring enough to flaunt the single status of the Indian youth. The songs like ' aa bhi jaa....kab se karein hain tera intezaar' and ' jab bhi koi ladki dekhoo mera dil deewana bole...ole ole ole' has been the landmark in the industry and legendary examples of the time when India was not hit by the MTV 'Dare to Date' wave. Hail Bollywood !!
Bollywood Trivia: Adding Jamalgota was a trivial revenge technique used for the villan's sidekick during the 80's and 90's in bollywood. While it created quite a funny situation, it also result a lot of difficulty for the Villain character. Andaz Apna Apna was the first film to use this technique on one of the main protagonist character. Hail AAA !
Bollywood Trivia: ‘Khiladi’ has the record of the longest ever Movie Series of Bollywood. With 7 films – “Khiladi, Main Khiladi Tu Anari, Sabse Bada Khiladi, Khiladiyon ka Khiladi, Mr. and Mrs Khiladi, International Khiladi and Khiladi 420”, Khiladi Series changed the bollywood forever. Undertaker, controversial Mud shot of Shri Shri 1008 Rekha ji and smooch of Mamta Kulkarni gave the first true International touch to Bollywood of 90’s. Songs like “jab tak rahega samose mein aloo, tera rahunga oh meri shalu” paved the way for the corny lyrics which has been a main character of Bollywood of 90’s. Hail Khiladi !!

Movie Review of 'Rann' - RGV has done it again
I just came home after watching Rann. The new flick directed by RGV, stars Amitabh Bachchan, Ritesh deshmukh, Paresh Rawal, Gul Panag etc etc. In 1 line –the movie is insanely awesome. RGV has done it again. It is a masterpiece to accompany the legendary RGV ki AAG which, for a long time now was the sole heir to the throne of shitty crap.
Few months back there was a rumour that some blah blah director is planning to make an on screen version of Mahabharta but later it was said to be back in the box. Seeing Rann made me believe again that RGV has taken up the task in his hand now. Every single character gives his best of the ‘hoo-ha-ha-ha laugh’ and tries to make it as worse as is possible. Plus the ‘Vedic Hindi’ they use while conversing makes your belief rock solid about the under table preparation of the epic Mahabhartha.
Talking about the script, it was as if RGV had asked Nisha Kothari to write the story since she didn’t have anything to do. The characters in the movie are so fucketti-fucketti-fuck that you are not able to move your eyes off the screen because you don’t want to miss a single weird expression displayed by them.
Lets talk about the characters one-by-one:
Amitabh Bachchan: For the first 1.5 hours, you believe it to be another of his cameo appearance, which changes when he is given full fledged 15 mins of hard hitting, punching-right-in-the-face kind of speech/dialogue/blah blah at the end of the movie.
Ritesh Deshmukh: Seeing him reminded me of the ‘Great’ Ashish Nehra. You remember, whenever he used to come out to bat, his face used to have an expression as if he is asking himself that ‘what is this ?’ ‘Why am I doing this?’ Or even ‘what I am supposed to do?’ He used to stare point blank at the bowler, keeper, fielders and crowds, as if telling them – “Look guys, I am an innocent guy. I don’t know what is going on here and I have been just asked to go down with a bat which btw I don’t know how to handle and that’s what I am doing. So please don’t blame me.” Ritesh is able to keep the same confused expression through out the movie, without any variation, scene by scene (Standard deviation of Expression (σ) = 0) but in the last you get to appreciate his guts. Who else could have done such justification to the role.
Gul Panag: I guess she was in such a trauma, after being paired with an expression-less Ritesh that she even wore a t-shirt with the caption ‘50% single’. Remove the lovely hair style and those TWO BIG ………………………….. err… eyes and even Nisha Kothari would have done the role.
Neetu Chandra: oh I am sure about this. She was made to watch Nisha Kothari classics and asked to bring on those same epic performances live on screen again.And what can i say. She has done it brilliantly, leaving no stone unturned.
Sudeep: Oh Man!! He was the real gem. RGV ke tarkash se nikal hua ek aur teer jo aapke dil to tar-tar kar dega. Welcome – ‘Gents Nisha Kothari’ on his screen debut. He delivers the dialogues as if something is stuck in his ass and he is applying tones of pressure to get it out. He moves his hand faster and more frequent than what Dhoni does while batting. Plus 98% of the time he was found trying to smoke the unlit fag but to compensate for that he opens and closes his click-wala-lighter so much that you right way put this lighter out of your top 10 wish list. It’s a perfect example of Ajit Agarkar, who can single-handedly turn any winning match to a lost cause.
Paresh Rawal, Rajat Kapoor and others were light ra mama. But the show stealer was the ‘buddhi maa of Paresh Rawal’ and the ‘right-hand-man of Paresh Rawal’. The Buddhi Maa’s role is awesome. She sits in front of the TV watching a Champion’s league match, expression less. Her son becomes PM, she is expressionless.Her son do hoo-ha-ha-ha and she is still expressionless. I mean you see her in the background, you see her in the front and she is amazingly expressionless every single time.
The right-hand-man is also the same expressionless guy. The best part is that he has more screen time than Amitabh Bachhan and yet you never hear a single word from him. You never even come to know his name. Who else can be a better actor to depict Nakul/Sehdeva of Mahabharata.
I guess RGV has taken his obsession of the weird camera angle on to a new level. He was best in Company, good in Sarkar, Bad in Sarkar Returns, worst in RGV Ka Hagaap but this time he has gone beyond all the boundaries. Some time you find yourself moving on your seat trying to catch a glimpse of the faces of the actors, which he seems to have shot from between the handle of the tea-cup.
I guess there is lot more I can write about, such as the hot chicks in the News channel office, ‘Dummies for Windows 98’ in Amitabh Bachchan’s room but I leave it for you to find out.
For me it was complete paisa vasool. In 120 bucks, so many ideas for a post. What else do you want. (:
PS: Yes I am obsessed with Nisha Kothari and as well as with Himesh.

Review of 3 Idiot: "Why rancho was an Idiot"
Had a chance to saw the movie 3 Idiot last night. Great movie. Tonnes of Sentimental stuff. Lots of messages. Great navel show by Kareena. Over and all a great movie. I mean atleast that what I thought when I came out of hall. But later in night, thinking about kareena, I got my attention slipped on other parts of movie too and I realized that it was of the greatest disaster film ever created in the industry after the SRK films. Sure if you think from my angle.
1. The most irritating thing was the ascent of Boman Irani. Yeah it was good when it was in Kaminey but don’t repeat the same thing and that too with such a irritating make up and hair style. I mean c’mon you don’t need the character to be hateful through make up. Let the script do it.
2. “All izz well”… that is the status message of half of my friends, currently online in my gtalk account. Now dude, c’mon gimme a break. What is all the hype about? It was just so insensible if you think to do in practical life. Just observe, even the little ‘Champ’ was kicking hard to shut them up. He even started crying, begging them to stop saying that irritating message again and again. And all these 3 + 20 other idiots was thinking, it was the magic of ‘All izz…well’. They even had a complete song dedicated on this. Absolute brilliant show of idiocracy!
3. Why the fuck ‘mili meter’ was crying when rancho gets the best student award. I mean who the hell cries on graduating day and even when he is receiving an award. I have never seen anybody crying in my college. Even who got the extension was chilling out. But again, why the hell ‘mili meter’ was senti.
4. Now its good that rancho decide to help joy in making his final year project. But again, in one more great show of (in)sensibility he tries to keep it secret and surprise him. And the result, you all know. Yeah now I agree with Rancho that it was a murder. But Rancho, you fucking moron. You are responsible for it. You idiot, you should have just told him that, ‘let me help you and we will complete the project’. Instead he tried to be superhero, doing everything alone and keeping the poor fellow joy in trauma for the days when our idiot Rancho was trying to make a super final year project in his first year itself and that too in the constrained amount of time.
5. There used to be a detective serial on DD2 – ‘Raja and rancho’ where Rancho was played by a moneky. That moneky even was smarter than our dear Aamir Khan. You remember, after helping Mona giving birth to a child, Rancho just lifts his bag and starts moving out. Now the scene started with all the three friends leaving together. But finally he starts moving alone. I mean, simply a 3rd class footage taking attitude. Dude be mature. Yes you are an idiot.
6. Rancho had 400 patents on his name and none of the Indian TV channel, even the IndiaTV also, didn’t cover him - looks so farfetched. I mean hirani was excellent with timeline of the movie. He even attached the 2004 Mumbai rains with the graduating year and related it with plot greatly. But Mr. Hirani, Technology is one more thing if you haven’t heard. You ignored the sheer brilliance of media bringing everything buried out. They do it literally once when they get the prince out of the tubewell hole.
7. The movie was racist in his theme. The way they insult the great tamilians celebrated tradition to mug, mug and mug, along with trying everything to leave others behind is mocked all the way in movie. Now I hereby I strongly condemn the scenes featuring chatur as the biggest asole , farting sambhar smell throughout the movie. On the record I would like to say that I sincerely appreciate his gesture of providing the much needed porno magazines to relieve the pressure during exam time. He was so much different from the usual tamilians and trying to help other fellow students in concentrating for exam. On the other hand, what do you say about Rancho securing first rank year after year and our other two idiots getting screwed up? Rancho was all the way motivating them, not to study and secretly studying on his own. Now that is should be bring ahead and blamed.
8. Who the fuck go and have a marriage in Manali and that too when you are well settled in Delhi. I mean, that was way out of line. I don’t even want to discuss this. Just one thing – Kareena and ‘Price Tag’ was engaged when Rancho was in 1st or 2nd year. Now after 4 year of college + 5 year of wilderness – 2 initial years = 7 years. This is the courtship period for kareena. What the …Fuck!!
I have just one thing to say – the title of the movie shouldn’t be 3 Idiots but ‘300 idiots’. In the loving memory of all the 300 morons who worked their blood and sweat to make it possible for the movie to cross all the limits of idiocracy!!
Hats off for the team!!
PS 1: I forgot to mention about the 2 months extra expensive medication at the posh hospital in Delhi while the price of bhindi being Rs. 12/kg makes you go haywaired. Plus 2000 bucks new saree. Who the hell is financing…Raj Kumar Hirani??
PS2: Rancho used to visit the blog of Sharman joshi and never lefts a comment. Now that is crime according to penal court of blogosphere. So folks, if you are not leaving comment, then you are a state convict. Mind It!!

The Tune She Hums
I have been a decent music lover since my high school. One of the greatest things about this passion is that your life gets chronologically attached to the specific songs. For example: Vikas bhalla covers grade 7-9, stereo Nation takes grade 10, Sathiya was on in 11th and Lucky Ali in grade 12th similarly every old song remind me of certain phase of my life.
Later the addiction increased and the theme music of certain things started putting tag on my life. The best tag has been the starting music of ‘How I met your mother’. This reminds me the greatest days of my life. The days when I was with the biggest assholes of the world. The days when we used to collect 5 bucks from 7 people, Marlboro was the luxury, minute maid was a dream and Idli-sambhar was the destiny.
So coming back to the tune part. Last week HIMYM started airing again and the same tune was there. So many things started flashing again. Damn those days.
The week was followed by a reunion in Bangalore. But it is an accepted fact now that the reunion is never going to be complete. Everyone will never be together again. This time it was sajal, sumedh, Vipul, Rajat, Jadoo and achar missing but luckily lot of people were there. Trust me, reunion is such a bad idea when you have to come alone back to Chennai. The trip was way too awesome. But trust me, the huge spending ( 11k mine and 18k Ravi) will never ever give the feel of those days. Fuck this money!
Anyways it was a great meet. Usually great Anshul’s butt-Fucking session, Kshitiz’s “ OOOO Naaaa” [My dear cousins, Please buzz me for more details on OOO NAA], HRC, Absolute, VAT 69, UB city etc etc. But I have made a note to myself to avoid reunions until I am in Chennai.
SPARKS rocks
OOO NAA double Rocks!!

Movie reviews : Frost/Nixon and The devil wears prada
Frost/Nixon: This movie is based upon the play of the same name by Peter Morgan, which dramatizes the 1977 televised Frost/Nixon interviews. The film version is directed by Ron Howard (Apollo 13 and Da Vinci Code). . The brief plot is Richard Nixon was the US president involved in the Watergate scandal and later resigned from the post but he never apologizes for his action. It was later in the series of interviews with David Frost that he accepts about his mistakes. The acting of Frank Langella as Richard Nixon and Michael Sheen as David Frost is really awesome. They truly justifies with the role.This is an absolute masterpiece depiction of the 1970’s culture. What impressed me most is that the director has paid attention to all the minute details like in one scene President after seeing the shoes without lace, for the first time, asks his Chief of staff to comment. Kevin Bacon as the Chief of Staff is as usual god level. Frank Langella was a ditto copy of President Nixon with his entire accent, body movements. He presented the frustration and desperation of a person who want to return to power so beautifully that you just wish that scenes never get over. But my pick of the lot will be definitely Michael Sheen. The way he has portrayed the role of a Broadcaster, a person who is a true PR guy, he never shows his real emotion to people, his desperation to be at the top of the entertainment world, His efforts to get everything arranged for the interviews. I mean its so wonderfully picturised that you just believe its all happening in front of your eyes. So in the end it’s a MIST MUST WATCH!!
The devil wears prada: one of my friends suggested me this movie. It was her favorite so I decided to give it a shot. Firstly what attracted me in the movie was the star cast: Meryl streep and (Hot!!) Anna Hathaway. The plot of the movie was very cliché with a new person enters into a job and adjust herself in the job finally reaching the top , realizing what she has lost in the way and Does she really wanted that ?? I mean for me some of the scenes in which Meryl Streep who plays a dominant boss asking weird things from his assistants like unpublished Harry potter manuscript, become repetitive after sometime but there was 4 things which kept me watching this film.
A.The background score: the music was so awesome that I can watch the movie just for the music. It was so well used in the background, so well mixed up with the scene.My advice, just grab the music on the first chance you get.
B.Emily Blunt: She plays the role of a senior assistant who is obsessed with her post of senior secretary level thing and never ever leaves a chance to show his superiority to assistant no. 2. On the other side she is shit scared of her boss. She was really able to portray both the shades quite wonderfully.
C.Meryl Streep: It is always a treat to watch her acting. She portrays any role so effectively that you every time you see her in a new role , you ask yourself –“ is she Meryl only??” .
D.Anna: last but not the least gorgeous Anna Hathaway is so beautiful that you don’t want to jeep your eyes off from screen. On the acting part she was quite normal or I must say below normal but on the beauty part, just 3 words: Oh My God!!
On the whole – It can be watched once but music can be listened forever.

Dreamcatcher ( short film)
My first attempt to showcase the inborn natural talent that was hidden and hidden deeply. Actually the script was looking god level on papers. The screenplay was giving a hint of Oscar winning movie. The cast was god level. But somehow things went a little out of way. The camera was of not of expected quality. The cameraman was insane which was unluckily me. The cast turn out to be outrageous. People were busy so we have to change the script in order to complete shooting and meet the deadline for submission. Half of the angle had gone waste because people were appearing in background mocking the poor freshie actor. In the end the product which comes out was a fucking piece of shit:
But yeah, I m happy for my first attempt. Thanks to cocodick, gilly who worked so hard in the film and never objected on retakes. Thanks to lot to shamshan n fkd for being a part o this film. And I really want to thanks dickens for awesome editing. And yeah thanks to all my fans. and my gratitudes to anshul,hulka,poorvi for their support,batteries n digicam.
It’s just a chut level movie but yet if you wants to waste your time I am putting it down.
