Congrats for the New Job

It’s there on the wall…. economy is going down and pink slips are becoming a craze. It longer is “News” if any one gets kicked out. Even if it’s the CEO of the company (though… he is the first one to be thrown out these days). So it’s quite surprising if someone gets a job. So surprising that all the news channel,papers and media people are covering it. people have left their work and started celebrating the moment. The TV was on mute, so didn’t quite get the guy’s name, but do wish him all the best ….

Gajhini – its the villain

An hour later into the film, I realized gajhini is the villain’s name. And I had come to the theatre expecting gajhini to be the heroin’s name, or atleast a good character in the film. And what was all the hype around the film for lifting off the story from memento and all?? coz apart from 30 mins of the film, the rest was just a plain bollywood love story of boy meets girl, boy loves girl, girl is killed, boy takes revenge, and villain finally gets killed.

Moral of the story: If you are the villain, then never utter your name in front of your victims. Or else, they’ll utter your name in their loved ones ear, who’ll forget everything but still remember your name and then tattoo it on his body, kill your men, and finally kill you. But here’s the catch, make sure that every consecutive meeting with him has a gap of more that 15mins. This way he’ll have to recall everything, and by the time he’s finished with doing it, he’ll forget everything.

 

film rating: can watch once  (only when you are down with 2 5 vodkas.

SL Millionaire – a brief review

Film: Slumdog Millionaire

I recently got a chance to watch the film everyone has been talking about, and my oh my was it a wonderful film. The film has already entered the top 50 films list on IMDB, and has been nominated in various film festivals. And irrespective of the awards it may win or not, it’s a definite watch.

The film is fantabulous in all ways. Be it editing, casting, direction, and background score. The film is afar cry from typical bollywood films and thank god(or the director) for that. Coz, the film has a solid storyline and that too original (something very rare in Indian Films). The story is about this simple boy from Mumbai slums who goes onto become the only winner of a popular game show “who wants to be a millionaire”. The film then tracks how every incident in his life has contributed towards answering difficult questions on the game show. But its not just the story, its the story telling which puts top of others. and the visual treatment does justice to both and stands a league apart. For AR Rahman fans like me… the background score was a treat in itself. He has mixed indian and western music style to create peppy numbers. These days the songs are on my playlist.

Go and watch this movie today……
