Re: Changing cricketing gear...To,Everybody...

[Guest guest]

True, Shyam. I am horrified at what is happening next door. The state of

Pakistan seems to be sliding into anarchy -

 

However, I have this sneaking suspicion that it may have been just an eyewash,

because, given that the guys had Kalashnikovs and rocket launchers, it would

have been terribly easy to blow up the entire bus. It seems like they chose not

to do so - was it just to gain public sympathy - a part of Pakistan's elaborate

plan to show that they were not the perpertrators of 26/11 - that they

themselves are the victims as well ?

 

In any case, for selfish reasons, I do hope that Pak gets a stable government -

it would be good for us because they can then be the buffer between us and the

Taliban ( I hope !)

 

Rather cynically,

Subject: Hello everybody..Delhi- 6 review...

Sorry for jumping..in. .after a real long absence..by my,own set standards...

..(Ha Ha Ha)

Probably,will read..all the pending emails..which r there..in my mailbox..and

compile a SHYAM'S Digest..and answer it soon..

Since,Sohana' s 9th grade exams finally got over (they have a strange

GULF-BOARD.. in 9th and aCBSE board..to follow in the 10th..and the 9th

std..exams.. were as strenuous..as the next yr's curriculum.. is to follow..)

So,we..decided to celebrate this 1 week cross-over holiday break..by watching

the much talked about..Delhi- 6

The songs from the new movie Album,Delhi- 6.,isnt all that good..,but

OK.OK..,with a couple of songs..like Genda Phool..and Masakali..hummable. .

Some how..I am not impressed by the songs..out these days..

No lyrics..but lots of yapping,rapping. .and tons..of techno music..and

remixes..

No substance..

Hear some,of the so called songs,of Delhi -6..by winner..Rehman. .and u

will wonder Why..I say so..

Particularly. .the Title song..and the Rehna Tum...(And one of the wise..member.

..if possible..,includin g... .explain. me the lyrics..)

..

Need a good change..of genre..and some good musicians..I guess..

To,put it mildly..folks. .

THE MOVIE,..DELHI- 6,is a damb squib...

Very poor storyline,

Very bad editing,..

Very bad Non-acting.. by actors..and. .

the usual story of an American Desi..coming back for good...from the Big

Apple..to the crowded Chandni Chowk..area. .of Delhi..,very badly narrated,..by

once a great director, of a movie like...Rang De Basanti,Rakesh Mehra...(yuck.

..yuck --avoid it..if possible)

But do ..see it..if u miss India..at this moment.,(for NRI folks.)..and if..U

like..to again see..Mr..Junior- B..and his pathetic acting skills..

Koi mujhe..acting ke liye chance dega??

Although..acted under MGIMS greats like Amulya,Fali, Ajit Saste..and Prof

Khapre..,I can still emote better than..Junior- B..and for a price..90%./ less

than him..,and atleast..I would be assured..of. .some audience..from the august

members here..and..my family..and some of my old trusted Gulf friends..to watch

the movie..and give..a good collection.. the first week(Ha Ha Ha)

Kya ho raha hain..aaj kal ke movie directors ko,samajh nahi aa raha

Take Subash Ghai and his pathetic flop...Yuvraaj. ..and now...this..

I think..I better watch..old films..of the 70's..and some old Marathi hits..of

bygone era..

Soothing on mind and soul..

Or probably..I don't belong to this Generation.. .

Equally sick..of Angrezi movies..as well..

I enjoy watching..some very family..children movies..like Charlie and the

Chocolate Factory,Sound of Music..and stuff like that.,with Sohana

I am not into..watching the Sci-Fi,mindless thrillers..or those senseless

horrors..or those..bikes. and car chases..or the ones..where the Goraas..save

the humans and the planet earth......from extra-terrestrial forces..(Yuck Yuck

Yuck..can't take that stuff anymore.)

Maybe,will see.... " The curious case..of Button " ..,someday. .perhaps. .

Bye.

Those were exactly my thoughts when I saw that news on TV. Even today

Pakistan is still asking for proof that Kasab is from Pakistan.
