Cheeni Kum - So Realisitc

This is probably one of the best movies i have seen.....Every character in this movie is so realistic...no cliched dialogues, no over action, no unnecessary emotions, everything was so practical and realistic.....I think, Amitabh bachchan is the most charismatic actor i have seen....no one else could have done this role so beautifully as amitabh....It just came so naturally for him....He was at his best in every frame.....Tabu is no lesser to him. She has also done her job just right. But i think everyone who acted in this movie knew what is expected out of them and have just given the right proportion. nothing more, nothing less....Above all, the whole credit goes to the director Balki....Because he is the man behind the whole show.....After seeing so many masala movies ( btw, i like to watch masala movies too)....this is a welcome break... something different at the sametime very interesting....A 64 year old man falling in love with a 34 year old girl, the romance between them is portrayed so beautifully, and the 7 year old girl giving advice to this 64 years old man on how to handle his love relationship is so cute.....on the whole a very realistic movie to watch.....i just enjoyed every frame of it.....

I wish there was rewind button!!!!!!

met sathya, ipsita and priyadarshi after 2 1/2 months........it was like getting back to the old days.... we all sat together started talking each ones experience in the last 2 months, and then gossiped quiet a bit ........ It all reminded me of the Great Lakes college days....how many days we would have sat together like this in ipsita's house spoke about every topic under the sun, fought over so many issues, shared so many likes and dislikes.....those days were beautiful.......today was one such day..... sitting all over again at ipsita's new house and talking,fighting and gossiping and when we all 4 got in to the car, my mind just rewinded those long Besant nagar beach road drives......... i felt so nostalgic.....this was my small yet happening group at great lakes...we 4 ( me, ipsita, sathya and priyadarshi) have spent most of the time together in the last one year at great lakes.....now each one of us is in a different place ( yah, ipsita and priyadarshi are together).....but still as a group we are not together anymore........makes me feel really bad........i only wish there was rewind or pause button to life......... God!!!!!!!!! y didnt u give me that option...........

Busy, Not So Busy

I have been getting different feedbacks from all my MBA classmates who have joined their companies....There are people like Manan Sharma, who work till night 12 on an average every day and on the other side there a few people who are yet to allocated to any project...in IT language, it is called "Bench"....I was just thinking which group i belong to...Actually neither of them.....Because, i have been assigned to a project, so i am ruled out of the bench category, at the same time i am not very busy and some how manage to get out of the office mostly by 7:30 in the night and dont stay any longer.....So i dont belong to the busy bees category also.....i just wish this corporate life continues this way, where u do justice for wat you are paid for and at the same time you have some time for yourself also......i know i am being greedy...letz c how it goes.....

Flop Story - For The First Time

Have u been in a state where you have always got what you ask for, where everything that you plan has worked, where no one has said 'no' to u???? I have been...Actually, from my birth till a couple of days back i was in that state......Having been gifted with a wonderful family, where for everyone my happiness matters more than their own i think being in this state is not very difficult....but for the first time in my life, what i planned didnt happen or rather i didnt get what i wanted.....:((....Booked for a Logan Car 3 weeks back to gift my parents on their 25th wedding anniversary..... but just cancelled it a couple of days back...People responsible for this are HDFC Bank and my beautiful company TCS, who didnt credit my salary....This whole plan has consumed 2 months of my time..... how many showroom visits, how many test drives, how many finance options.....now looking back at it, everything is down the drain...Any logan car that pass by me is giving me a feeling of a loser.....i know i will get over it quite sooner....but still.....

A Question in my Mind

In this fast paced world, with technology wearing a new suit every day , we meet so many people and see so many new things. But why is it that, certain people/things have such an impact on us, that though they/it has passed us, we still remember it or rather keep thinking about it..... It is not ours, it is just something that came across us, but once it has gone past us, why is there a feeling of losing, why are we not able to understand that it was not ours and it would never be ours....why is it that we fail to respond and instead react to such situations....i donno, i just can't find an answer for all these questions........
