Langda Tyagi is a Pirate

Watched two movies this weekend, "Omkara" & "Pirates of the Caribbean" Both are amazing movies.


Set in the political war lord driven area of UP, Omkara is through and through a Saif Ali Khan movie. He steals the show. I remember I watched some shit movie of Saif on Zee TV few months back. He wears a blue coat a tie and jeans and those pointed toe shoes, his hair longer than the female lead of the movie, and comes running to his grand ma, "Dadi ma main aa gaya!!!" Worshhhhhhtttttt !!! Here he acts as a conspirer, Langda Tyagi. "Langda Tyagi Bahu Bali"
Bloody kameena he is in the movie.

Ajay Devgan, Kareena Kapoor, Konkona Sen Sharma, Naseeruddin Shah are good in the movie. Konkona is very good and infact she curses like those villager's wives and is pretty vulgar at times. I guess thats what the movie demands. Naseer is a pakka politician and ruins his politics from the jail cell. What happens in the end may be known to the Shakesper fans, but for a change looks like Kareena can act. (she did act in Chameli). Vivek Oberoi is a waste in the movie.


Jack Sparrow, ooops sorry I mean Captain Jack Sparrow, is rocking in the movie. Lots of surprises in the movie. Everyone after the "Heart" of a pirate. Pirates figting huge sea monsters. Pirates fighting canibals in the Caribbean. Pirates more ugly than ever. Loads of fun and pirates coming back from dead. I really dont want to tell the story and kill the fun. :-)

Both the movies are awesome. Thats it.

Educating the Girl Child

Screen sensation Malaika Arora at a promotional function for providing educational support to girls, in New Delhi on Wednesday, July 19, 2006.
News and photo from Hindustan Times.



Just look at the dress. The little girl is wearing long skirt and a full shirt and Malaika Arora Khan is wearing the smallest dress and the most see through dress ever made by an Indian. The question is didnt she know where she was going??? Ok she is pretty but there is something called as dress for the ocassion. I dont expect her to wear kurta and come but a decent shirt and a jeans would be good enough.

Well we all can see that the girl and boy ratio is really bad in India. In Punjab it is some 779 girls to every 1000 boys. And yes we need to do lots to educate the girl and make them stand up in the society. Make them understand their rights. Bring in more girls in the corporate world. More women doctors, more women engineers, etc etc. Everything correct. But what impact does this dressing or cleavage showing or thighs showing, have on the little girls?? I know the parents wont allow such dressing but would it not be more sense if we asked the Delhi Government to call people like Arundhuti Roy, Jhumpa Lahiri, Kiran Bedi, etc for such programs?? If I can think of names like these why cant the people in Government think of??

May be this girl goes back home and says, "Mom, if the chief guest wears such a dress why can't I??" I am not asking the people to not call Mallaika Arora Khan but please call some people who have brought some difference in the society or have brought a new perspective to the way people look at life. Malaika is a good model other than that "NOTHING", have some sense Delhi Government.

Have some sense atleast.

Oye Chaaak De Fatte

In 1997 there was a surdar. He saw a lot of problems existing in society . To protest against the injistice, racism, oppression of the poor, castism, etc etc etc in the society, he cut his hair. Well nothing happened to the society but his mom slapped him. That was me. :-)



Another funny incident I recall. I took my cousin's scooter and as I came back home, I found my nanaji sitting in the varandah. We had not seen me after my hair cut. I turn back, took the scooter and shot out of the house. Later I came to know from my cousin what my Nanaji said, "Beta, koi ladka aaya tha. He was clean shaven. But he had our scooter. May be he wanted to meet you. But he had our scooter I am pakka about it!!!" Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha



I have to sport a beard and tie turban for my Shadi. So was practicing yesterday. Dont I look like a smart surd from Chandigarh???

Chak de Fatte, Naap De Killi...

"Da Vinci Code" Sucks, "Munich" Rocks

I saw the movie Da Vinci Code and Munich today.
Well something about Da Vinci Code looked very similar to the worst type of story telling ever seen on Indian Cinema. Ok Da Vinci Code is not Indian movie but we have made a very similar movie called Suryavanshi in 1992.
Something about Suryavanshi.
There is a guy who wants to find out what lies in the secrets of some valley, where there was a cult and finally he finds that he is the last surviving descendent of that cult. He is Suryavanshi himself, blah blah blah. Bad story writing, bad performance. Salman Khan trying to act with Sheeba. Yes there was some heroine called Sheeba also. Salman Khan has lang hair. He is an archeologist. Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah. I was a kid in 1992 thought it was a good dhishum dhishum movie.
Anyways about Da Vinci Code, first thing you notice is that Tom Hanks as Dr. Robert Langdonlooks ugly with lang hair and Audrey Tautou as French Secret Agent Sophie Neveuis trying very hard to put a french accent. In the movie they both are trying to find something related to history and they find that Sophie is directly linked to what they are trying to find. Amazing isnt it??? Bloody Dan Brown is a cheat. He saw Suryvanshi in Bombay goes back to US and then tries to find some facts from here there on Christianity, jumbles the facts and writes a book. And then some idiot named Ron Howard tries to make a movie out of it and fails.
Seriously I found "Da Vinci Code" pretty boring and slow. I would recomend people to watch "Munich". Its about a Avner, who is a Mossad agent and how he and his gang are hired to kill the Arabs and Palestinians directly linked to the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre of Israelie Atheletes.
Its a lovely movie. Like a documentary. The best scene is where there is a discussion between Avner and a Arab terrorist. The Arab tries to convince Avner that one day Palestinians will have their own country, every child wouyld have their own home and they would live very happily. Avner tries to convince the terrorist that it is not freedom struggle and the terrorists will gain nothing by killing Israelie people or atheletes. Beautiful scene it is.
ALso one of the scenes where they show how the Israelie atheletes were killed was very dramatic.
Well a little viewer discreation is recomended. Sometimes the shooting is too cold blooded and nudity has been shown in the movie.
Munich is a must watch.
