Go Goa!!


It's been quite a few days since this blog was started and what better to start with than with my recent short vacation to Goa!!




A sudden trip to a beautiful destination,
simply excited my senses to no limit,
a peaceful journey and lots of lazy times,
coupled with lots of water and red wine,
from one coast to another,
we went from Bagha to Calangute and then,
to Aquada!,
if this wasn't enough for the day we had a midnight drive to Anjuna,
there we sipped on some limon and ate "rolled" up pancakes,
On the next day we rode to Arambol and then to Morjhim
and finally reached the clean waters of Vagatur,
while we were fascinated and "captured" by the waters themselves,
the famous "starry" fort added the Bollywood Masala to the Beach! (the fort at Vagatur was the one in the movie - Dil Chahta Hai, a popular Hindi Movie about people in the city folk)

With an Avenger, a Karizma and a Pulsar between us we took the city by speed, style and storm!
On the last day we soared the skies and though we had a fantastic view from up there,
the parasailing didn't quite enthrall us...

The street shops and the amount of time and energy spent bargaining left us quite drained,
we took a couple or more buses to reach our end station,
where we ate a few thalis and not to forget the rasberry dollies!
for taking the train back home,
a lil' bribe clinched the deal and we got our berths to sleep,
and in a blink of an eye we're back home wondering how the days will go,
dreaming of our quick but memorable holiday by the sea...

Shaitan

So thanks to some prodding from my friend Shri, I decided to go watch this movie today. I'm not upset I did, but I'm certainly not happy. It was sort of like watching Love, Sex aur Dhokha in a way. Graphic, very close to reality, and loud. The movie begins with Anurag Kashyap saying that it's a just a movie and that he doesn't support the use of drugs, drinking and driving and that it's a fictional story which is debatable because like Dev D he used an actual incident as one of the pivotal moments in the movie, in this case the moment is when 5 kids high on coke, drinks, and generally on life, speed across town and in one of the turns end up killing two people who were on a scooter. They were driving a Hummer. Anyways, to come back to the timeline of things, the movie begins by shocking you. I know I've watched a number of movies which involve sequences of kisses in front of my parents / relatives without flinching. But I would not be able to watch this movi...

Karthik Calling Karthik

After having been completely enamored and in love with the song "Uff Teri Adaa" I couldn't wait to watch the movie finally. The end emotion being, a decent watch, but could've been much better. The movie begins with a very stereotypical life of a guy (Farhaan) who's just not got anything going for him, from a landlord who's hounding him for money, to a boss who's blaming him for everything that goes wrong, to the hot co-worker (Deepika) who just doesn't know of his existence at all! The change that comes into his life, is a call, at 5 am each day, by a man who claims to be "Karthik" himself who guides him to becoming the man that he is. And voila, suddenly, the real "Karthik" begins to stand up for himself, asserts himself in front of his boss, and manages to strike conversation (a rather witty one) with Deepika too! Sitting in the audience, you literally feel like whistling and hooting when you see him walk down the corridor of his...

Hum Tum aur Ghost Review!

There are some movies where you should just choose to leave your head behind and see only the movie. This movie, Hum Tum aur Ghost, is somewhat similar. The plot is fairly simple, you have Arshad Warsi, playing Armaan, a fashion photographer who's a heavy drinker, assisted by a gorgeous Sandhya Mridul, playing Mini, in love with Dia Mirza, playing Ghehna, who's supposed to be the editor of Cosmopolitan (and is not seen under pressure, is not hyper fashion conscious, or busy at all!). That said, you have an entire entourage of "ghosts" who are following Armaan, because he has the "gift" to see, and hear them. Similar to the Sixth Sense, each of them have died having something unfinished and need help from him to complete that deed so that they can move on to heaven... It's interspersed with some comic dialogues, and some great acting esp. by Boman Irani, and Sandhya Mridul. Arshad Warsi fails to evoke the right sentiment of pity, warmth, and affection in ...
