Wake Up and Watch the movie!!

Wake Sid is certainly the most beautiful film of the year. The film as you know is about a boy refusing to wake up until he meets a girl who changes his life. The concept of “opposite attracts” is so beautifully shown in the movie that yes you can now puke on to the posters of movies like kambaqt ishq and all (though I haven’t seen the movie). Konkana Sen Sharma can adapt herself to any character. You can’t challenge that acteress.She has made a position for herself in the industry. Ranbir Kapoor was almost perfect in the movie, there isn’t a minute you feel that he is playing a character instead you think Ranbir is like Siddhart (the main character in the movie) in real life too. And yes I like Supriya Patak and it was really good to see her playing Ranbir’s Mom in the movie. Okay, now the best part of the movie is the director of the movie Ayan Mukherjee. The debutant director has captured all the small things of life that makes it beautiful. I mean the waves, the rain, the smile and used various other things to make the movie more youthful and larger than life. The best part is the art direction, cinematography, acting music and Ayan’s direction. The director himself is so good looking that he could have also played Sid. The songs of the movie are simply amazing. O re Manwa is the best melodious song of the year for me. And it has one romantic English song which is great too.Ok I suppose I am all praising for the movie because the movie is very fresh and “stylish” as you can term it in its own ways. It’s better than Jane tu ya Jane Na because the plot of this movie makes sense. So don’t forget tom watch this movie.

The promo of the new movie Qurbaan looks good. The movie has an interesting plot but I have seen a movie like qurbaan and surprisingly that too on national geographic channel. The movie is about a man falling in love with a girl and the girl doesn’t know the man is out there to destroy twin towers of America. It was a film showing how they plotted against 9/11. I bet the film will be similar to that movie but kareena is looking stunning in black and the music of the movie is good. The sex scenes as shown from the promo are shot esthetically. I hope there would be some movie in Indian cinema where the directors would try to push the envelope and shoot sex scenes with sensuality because there is not a single movie in Indian Cinema where sex is portrayed in an esthetic manner because they fear the censor board would give them A certificate which would not allow the under 18 people to watch the movie.

One of the most sophisticated and interesting award function which I have seen in India, not in reality but on television was GQ MEN of the year award show. It was an award show filled with people from every sphere, be it sports, fashion, art, politics and of course bollywood. And what was amusingly surprising was that the award show was filled with humor and the people present maintained their dignity by not pulling each other’s leg or by giving boring speeches like “thank god, thanks my dog” etc but there were all in a mood to have a good fun. And the people getting the award were all deserving candidates. This is one of the least award function were you get to see the chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir Mr. Omar Abdullah making the audiences laugh through his humorous speech and of course the chandler bing of politics Mr. Shashi Tharoor also managed to win the heart by delivering a nice speech. Not to forget the ndtv journalist Srinivasan Jain was also given the award for his excellence in the field of journalism. I remember that guy was present 24x7 in front of the television box giving us the latest updates from 26/11 attack that took place last year in Mumbai. The poor guy didn’t even get the chance to change his shirt for two-three days. Now that’s what I call real Journalism! The bachaans were seated behind Omar Abdullah, saif bebo didn’t leave this stage also to flaunt their love life (as their new film qurbaan is on the verge of being released) Abhay Deol, (my fav actor) got the first award of his life and he was thrilled to receive it. It was a wonderful event filled with humour and sophistication, you can see the award show on you tube or can wait for it to be aired on STAR WORLD.

I manage to see almost all the interviews possible of all the people. I love watching interviews. It really shows if a person is politically correct, blunt or not and yea dumb or not. If you will notice the interviews you will see most of the celebrities will have the same answer to every question. ASK a female celebrity whom see had a crush on? She will say Sharukh Khan; you know why Sharukh because every actress wants to work with him so as to grab the position of No 1 queen of bollywood which is all media speculated stuffs. Ask a male celeb, whom he had a crush on? He will say madhuri dixit.Now; I don’t know why madhuri but answers are all same. Ask celebs about nudity? The females will say no-no because they are image struck actress and you can’t expect them to be like nandita das or seema biswas who are ready to showcase their soul in celluloid. The male celebs are now flaunting it, but more then showing it they are just talking about it. The clever madhur bhandarkar publicized about Neil Nitin getting nude for his film and then he pixilated the nude scene in order to grab both the audiences of both under 18 and above. The film industry is also like politics. You will get a prepared answer for all questions, and the worst of all answers is when asked about playing a homosexual role. They all will say I don’t want it to be a gay-bashing film I want it to be more like Brokeback Mountain because they all know no one is going to come up with such bold script to them because Indian Actors are less about performance and more about how good or bad their Image is in the public. That’s why you see such disastrous film coming up with no experimental cinema. But times are changing. Its time that yash raj also realist that every movie has to have a good script in order to run in box office. We had enough of Punjab and NRI people. Now people like bhardawaj, kashyap and akhtar’s are going to rule the Indian cinema. Till then let’s hum the songs of wake up Sid!! Haha.

Our so called "good education system".

I know I am late to comment on the “scraping of board exam for class 10” from 2011.But then personal views on any topic are welcomed at any time. We still have something to say on Jinnah and Gandhi and Hitler and many others even though they are resting in peace. So let’s talk about the judgment made by the HRD minister of India MR.Kapil Sibbal on the need to reform the education system of India. Class 10 board exam of CBSE board will have grading system from 2010 and then the board exam will become optional from 2011. Hmm, well this decision has different notions on people’s mind. Those who have scored above 90 in boards even though before the board exam they were a mediocre students, they must have had a terrible heart attack after listening to this verdict. I was watching CNN-IBN and some so called “intelligent and hardworking students” were obviously disappointed with the fact that they cannot show their competitiveness in class 10.I mean why do we need to judge the student’s academic performance so early at the age of 15. This age of studying, playing, discovering your roots apart from academics not to sit with big fat book of R.D. Sharma for hours. Not to be a part of traumatizing experience at the age of 14 or 15. I believe studying should never be considered a burden for anyone. Especially when you hear so many students committing suicide after not getting the desired marks it really hurts (reminds me of the ad of airtel featuring saif and kareena, it hurts one). I think those who are willing to participate in this board exam should be given the freedom to do so and those are not should better concentrate on the exam taken in the school that are far more satisfying and non-bias then those stupid teachers who correct 100 to 200 papers a day depending on their mood whether they are going to give you marks or not. But then I am also disappointed that nothing is being done for the students of class 12 who feel far more traumatized and depressed because everyone wants to be in a good college and the cut off percentage in those colleges are very high and there are lack of good colleges in India. Why should “board” exam be given the only priority to judge the student’s academic performance and the worst of all is a student doesn’t really know how is his being checked and rely more on “who will be checking his paper” rather than being confident of his own performance. I, myself being a student hear such things like “I was expecting 71 in maths and got 91” so is this a correct platform to judge how academically brilliant a student is? Especially when this board phobia has caused so many suicidal feelings on students mind and colleges are relying only on this system to judge the student’s performance. The whole education system surely needs to be reformed and I think it is being given the attention by Mr Sibbal.I will be a part of this pathetic system of board exam next year and when I hear the cut off percentage of studying economics in St.Stephens College is 97% I would rather think of killing myself than studying in that college, who will take you even if you have 60% provided you are a son of some minister. And it wouldn’t be wrong to say that all successful people are college dropouts because they are not willing to lead a robotic life by studying throughout till their hair becomes grey and they feel contended working under some multi national companies in other countries just to lead a common life. The very idea of innovation is not given a damn all that matters is either high marks or the power of money in Indian education and yes the system of reservation where dalits or scheduled casts have become the hero of the colleges because the seats are “reserved for them”. So our education system apart from academics comprises of what cast you belong to, who is your father a neta or a hero, and how much money can you spend to be a part of good college.

"My name is celebirity Khan"

Well I am upset with this srk and his hypocrisy .I know I got no right to judge these celebrities but what I also know is that people are blindfolded by what they hear or read in the news so much that they don’t apply their so called “common-sense”. Shahrukh is one of the richest and famous celebrities of India who says he is actually “famous than tom cruise” and we all saw how famous he is in the west when he was being detained in the airport for 2 hours. Many people including shahrukh khan and his close friends found it offensive that a person like him is being asked such questions relating to the security of the nation. But according to me when it comes to the security of the nation no one should be left out even if he or she is the president of the nation. When these celebrities can indulge in rape case, cocaine smuggling etc who knows what they are upto. And the actor is claiming that he was asked to go through all these procedures just because his surname was “Khan”. I would ask Mr shahrukh khan to recall that moment when Emran Hasmi was proclaiming that he was not given a flat in mumbai and how he commented on it by saying that “I never felt alienated as a muslim” now where has his peaceful and noble thought gone? Perhaps gone with the wind. If tomorrow I am being asked about my identity in other nation no one will care if I claim I was asked because I belonged to this religion but when it is a celebrity and he is asked to do that he would certainly be offended because his star status is not given value in that situation and because his ego is hurt and because those fully professional security guards are not asking for his autograph.
We should also not forget that because the security in America is so strict post 9/11 the country is in no mood to give any special reference to anyone which had a good result as well. A terrorist would think twice before devising a plan to attack America.

It’s not India were you are a neta or a celebrity so things will be easy on you. So those who think that their ego is hurt by such things should realize that nothing comes before the security of the nation and its people.

Ugly desires!

It feels great when you are back from hell. From those sleepless nights rolling here and there thinking about what will happen tomorrow and after continuous failures and rejection I got the big good news. I got the admission in a good school and when the news came out I just didn’t know how to react. It was because“good news” was something my ears were never accustomed of. But all’s well that ends well. I am now an expert when it comes to going off to various places for your admission and this is surely going to help me when I shall try for colleges. But everyone wants to be in a well known colleges and schools nowadays. What stupid life a teenager in India has and how ugly are his desires. Yes the ugly desires. As an average student you will just think of studying this and that and all that shit to pursue your ugly goals.
Now let me explain what these ugly desires are-
1. A student will put in his hard effort. Mug up the book. Lick every pages of it so as to score good marks.
2. If he succeeds then he will go into a good college.
3. Three years later he will be having a degree of this and that.
4. After that he will go to a foreign country to lead a better life.
5. The angrejis will make them work for hours and hours utilizing the Indian brain.

So these are the goals of every Indian nowadays. Flying off to good countries leaving their parents to rot in India and will make use of their nerdish life by serving for others.
None are concerned with politics or doing something different. It’s mandatory for every one to get a degree in his hand.
So don’t be a pappu and start thinking about reaching the place where no one has dreamt of. Try being Laxmi mittal and not an average middle class Indian.

Discussion.

I don’t know if anyone follows my blog but one friend of mine scrapped me on orkut and said “hey no updates on your blog” and felt like there is someone who cares. The reason why I wasn’t blogging was because I kept myself busy in writing a script for a 10 minute film. The story is of a sales-girl who discovers the other side of the people living in big complex and apartments and I learnt something about myself in my screenplay class that “I am actually a Lamb”. Dont think that I am self praising about myself but even if I am then what’s the harm in it. So it happened on the day when we six wannabe scriptwriters came up with different stories. I was overexcited about narrating my not one, but three stories and the other guy came up with a social drama. One guy reluctantly said he didn’t get time to think about any story and then I was trapped. I told my sir that I have three stories to tell and then the sir asked me if I can give one of my story to the “didn’t get time” guy and there I was left with a choice of YES or No and the over sensitive and moronic side of me chose “YES”. Yes because I didn’t want him to think that I am rude and above all yes because I cant say “NO” to people. So we were given the homework of writing the businesses of the characters in our stories and we met again next week. I narrated my story and the sir offered his ideas which could make my story very humourous. I liked his idea and then came the chance of the MR who casually accepted my story without being ashamed of the fact that it wasn’t his idea on which he was working. I was patiently listening to his scenes and discovered that the dumb guy actually copied the lines from my story and made it into screenplay. I was abusing him from inside for making my story, my idea look so crap. But I learnt a lesson from this class that in competition you have to be mean, you have to say no to people. It isn’t the world of lambs where you will be appreciated for helping someone it’s the world of lions where you will be patted behind your back for grabbing the meat earlier then the others.

No Attention !!

Some people should really be left alone for a while because we are tired of watching them and their absolute and utter nonsense on television.

First of all it itches in my ass when I see SRK,Aamir,Akshay and salman craving for every bit of media attention and endorsing products like they really know about them. I wouldn’t call them “actors” because they have become hungry about earning more, gaining more attention and insult each other so as to make headlines on newspapers and television. I sometimes think that they just want to make people fool, sell gossip magazines. Wonder what their kids think of them. SO the no 1 in the hunger race is shahrukh khan. When he wasn’t a star he had a passion in him, the passion for acting but now he is more busy in showing off his injured arm to people or to deliver his silly prepared jokes on ramp or looking after his life’s “jeevan ki punji” the ipl team.ok enough of attention I have given to them…but dude, Abhay deol is going to rule on you people someday. You just wait and watch!!

Slumdog millionaire should not be given attention though I liked the movie but what the heck is it! The child actors rubina ali and azruddin ismail had gone to sonia gandhi’s house. Seems like those two are the only ones who had struggled in their lives and what’s damn funny and stupid is that the press reporters were asking them to sing jai ho. They must have sang for like 10 times for 10 different reports and we the people have to bear with such dimwit news , bad reporting and the yawning of azruddin ismail in front of camera.wow!!

Though I don’t know so much about politics but all I can say is that if Bjp comes into the throne then we have to bear the communal violence everyday and then the history of 1950 will be repeated so think twice before you give your vote to anyone and desperate people like “varun Gandhi” who crave for people’s reaction should not be considered as a citizen of India they are the new virus who are challenging the unity of India and its sovereignty

Shilpa Shetty thinks that the public is just a mad ass. When she gained popularity in Big Brother she didn’t leave any chance to showcase herself as a “bechari” Indian woman stuck with the firangs and we see her reporting to media like “jade needs to brush up her thoughts”,”I will never meet her” bla bla and when she comes back to India she becomes “the sadhuvi” by forgiving jade goody. We all know that’s shilpa’s trick to become a god in front of the media and when jade died she didn’t even go to see her as she claimed that “she was busy in IPL and endorsements ” wow what a lovely person you are shilpa…try being a real person for a second babe that would really help you in the future because being politically correct can sometimes be good but every time it shows how coward you are to say something of your own.
