I had a chance to watch Bachna Ae Haseeno in INOX, Pune. It was my first experience watching a movie at a multiplex. Thanks to friends Anshul, Siddharth (NLA Pune) for helping. First of all coming to Multiplex experience - It was nice. I was happy to get the tickets easily without standing in long queue. Ticket cost us 120 each. Hall was very nice. But i really hated that crowd. I was not able to laugh out my heart as loud as i usually did in our desi theatres.

Coming to the film. I am in full praise for the screenplay writer. Why? i’l tell you later. Ok now coming to the film. Let me introduce you the film. The film narration is done by the hero of the film who stands on a beach and tells his story of experiences at different stages of his life. Read more

Had been to Singh is Kinng film. Actually i read The Hindu review by Ziya Us Salam and went to this movie. Ziya Us wrote “a breezy entertainer”. But when the film ended, i felt it was not breezy but very tiring entertainer.

Coming to the film. The film starts with high tech action where one singh called “king” is targeted by a sharp shooter. At the end of this scene, this king singh lands in parachute and kills the shooter in a miraculous way. There itself i got doubts about this film. But i kept quiet. All this happens in Australia we are told. Read more

I happened to read John Grisham’s King of Torts. This is the first Grisham’s work i read. The starting of the novel is gripping and sticks us due to its suspense. But it is the chapters after half of the novel that really irritates. Same Tort lawyers, their toys, their food - these things are shown overly in the middle chapters. Had these things not been shown excessively, the 500 odd pages book could have been reduced by a hundred pages for sure.

The novel is about a rookie Clay Carter who works for OPD (office of public defense). Working under a boss Glenda, the money he earns is not enough for his life. Then he meets a person Tequila watson in a drug abuse and murder case. As he works into the case, fortune knocks his door. Who knocks the door, and how the fortune goes away as soon. In thew whole novel, the working of mass tort litigations in USA is shown well. Nice novel. Still more to write. will continue some other day.

Jaane Tu Jaane Na is nothing but an old story of boy and girl being cloooose friends and despite ignorant of “something” between them. And finally realizing “that” something in absence of each other.

The film’s title card is done innovatively. The title card video is shot in Mumbai’s Marine Drive area in a slow shutter painting type of video. We can notice several delicate moments in this title card video.

Seems like today i did some good postings on blog. Now as i was updating… i found this friend who was trying to mislead me by pressing CAPS LOCK… I asked him to at least help me by pressing TAB

Somehow today after a gap, i’m posting so many things on blog. And add this. This is the photo of a flower called Brahma Kamala. It blossoms its flowers only once in a year or so. It blossoms only in night time with some pleasant smell. Today night the brahma kamala plant in my home blossomed threee flowers. Here is the fresh photo taken just an hour ago.

All the three together.

And the single photo. Want high resolution version of this above photo?  Click here. The full resolution you can see the details of the flower, petals and inside parts. I remember studying something about the inside parts of the flower like some stigma, style, pedicel, microsporangium. Now i don’t know what these names stand for. Yes you can observe all these parts in the high resolution photo.

Our cat gave birth to two kittens last month. I felt its too bad to click a photo with flash. I feel that the photo flash will harm the tender kittens. So clicked this photo without a flash.

see how nice mother and babies are sleeping. Can u make out that black kitten in between? Mom says this orange one is female.

Chiru came to my home after looooong time. Felt like taking his photos. In future it “might” be difficult to click him. So tried and got this not fresh face. Go chiru go sleep well
