  • The more things change…

    the more they remain the same….

    Gandhi was the man they followed then, we still do..
    until next time, happy birthday India.

  • To each his own…

    The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Just tell him its flat 😀
    Speaking of ways into men’s hearts, saw an interesting comment here. When the interviewer asked SRK about the cold war between him and the bachchans, SRK said shabby (or should it be shaB? abhishek with that awful beard and dressing style should be called that) was with him till 4 am.. Now, is it that abhi finds ash cold or SRK hot or both? hmmm…
    until next time, was that flat? 😉

  • Rooms with a view

    The vacuum left behind by Heroes has been partally filled by the series that occupies the same time slot- Boston Legal. Also, it helps that i can bug D when they show the city shots with ‘Do you know this place?’, since she spent some time there recently..
    And i love the night shots of the city, to be precise, the ones which show the high-rise apartments, not just in this particular show, but any city.. No, come to think of it, its only the American cities, not say, the London ones or even the local mumbai ones… strange, but thats okay…I’ve wondered about this fascination for high rise apartment night shots, and i am yet to get a complete answer from myself… but i have been able to get some insights…
    in the shots, each of those tiny lights is a window into the life of a person/ family… each of those has a story to tell – some exciting, some mundane, some funny,some tragic.. but each a story nevertheless… and more importantly, it perfectly symbolifies a lot of lives – in a crowd, yet alone…

    until next time, story of our lives…..

  • Make it hot!!

    She gripped it hard at first, rubbed it all over, then rolled it. Then she started shaking it vigorously.This was when his irritation just burst out. “If you’re doing it, do it properly, otherwise, I’ll do it and let you know when its ready.You’re making it look as though you’re doing it for my sake.”, he said sarcastically.
    She didnt know what she was doing wrong, for already the effects of her work was showing. It was getting moist, a sureshot sign that it was responding to her touch. “ok, see if something is coming out”, she said.
    “No, nothing is coming out. This is becoming an everyday thing now. Next time, we’ll buy that jar pack. Coconut oil bottles in winter are a pain!!

    until next time, get a grip!!

  • A couple of things that made me think

    The irony of Real Good chicken having an expiry date on it…..
    ******************************************
    On one of those inane remote flipping trips, i somehow got stuck on the initial minutes of Salmaan Khan’s Judwaa… Dalip tahil and Reema lagoo have just had twins and are being congratulated by kader khan, a family friend.
    Kader Khan: Badhai Ho
    Reema Lagoo & Dalip Tahil: Aap ko bhi..
    And i had a startling revelation – that david dhawan was a filmmaker far ahead of his times. They tomtom movies about human relationships these days, but this was way back and i was amazed by his subtle way of handling a complex extra marital affair with three mature characters who acknowledge it..

    until next time, did that provoke you, the thoughts , that is?
