old wine in an older bottle

I respect a movie I need to watch!!! I watch movies as I am writing papers or as I am cooking or generally doing other stuff.. and I have watched several movies in several languages and several episodes of koffee with karan and several awards shows etc and so on!! However, if there is a movie that I cannot understand this way then I respect it!!! And of late there hasnt been a movie that I needed to watch.. After decades of wanting to watch it I saw Sarkar Raj. Now there is no story and the actors (sad to say this about Abhishek) dint have much to do and there was hardly any story worth mentioning!!! But I had to watch the movie. I watched Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na.. And I must say that a bunch of people were wasted in it.. It was brain numbing.. The two nice songs are over in the first 15 min of the movie!! On a tangential note I watched 27 Dresses and I must admit that its borderline silly..

Folks I must admit I started this post two weeks ago.. I dint get to finish it and this is what happens when I dont write in a flow...

Nanta's Tag

See here is the story.. I was walking down this crowded by-lane near the Harvard Yard and I saw a hole. I wanted to avoid it and so with great effort I walked or attempted to avoid it.. But in all my troubles I actually ended up falling into it!!!!!!

Sad, pathetic, lying rite?? So I shall not even attempt it. I got very crazy busy with a an extremely stressful class in what was supposed to be a not very stressful semester!!!! And I waited to do this tag bcoz it means a lot to me.. A fun post which reuired some thot process. So I am going to attempt it now..

10 Characters I fell for if they are Real

1) Arjun (am not sure of his last name) from Palace of Illusions by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni You know Arjun of the Pandava fame. The book depicted him very nicely..

2)Amit Chaterjee Who doesn't love him!!!!!!!!!! And I thot Lata was a huge bad word for rejecting him..

3)John Galt I read Atlas Shrugged at a stretch for a week. I loved her.. And his around 50 page speech..

4)Ron Weasley Coz he is just soooo cute..

5)Micheal Corleone He was soooooooooo much better in my head than AB Junior or Al Pachino

6)Kane (of Kane and Abel Fame) To be honest I liked Kane and Abel both a lot.. Would love to get my hands on that book again sometime

7)Charlie As the Crow Flies. Hard work pays all the time.

8)Rhett Butler I like him and he is the ultimate dream hero.

9)Julian (Famous Five) I don't remember why..

10)Mr. Pink Whistle Coz he is the coolest fun guy I know!!!
