I was quite adamant to see this movie on IMAX and in 3D and not in some ordinary theatre. What surprised me was that the booking of the movie opened last month on the 15th. Yes, you read it right! That is when the enormity of the mania hit me. And to make things worse, … Continue reading »

The Animation Mania
Anastasia! That was the name of the girl who opened the door. Of course, Mickey and Donald and Tom and Jerry have always been there, but Anastasia was the one who made me fall in love with Animation movies. She still remains my first love. Then I saw something drastically different. It completely bowled me … Continue reading »
Randomizer : Eurovision, Dances with Wolves & IPod touch
A few of my British colleagues introduced me to Eurovision just before the semifinals started this year. I was quite surprised that I have never heard of this contest before. When something has been going on from the last 50 years, you are bound to hear about it sometime. My faith in my “already gone to … Continue reading »
Mumbai Attacks : The week that was
It has been a week now since the ruthless attacks. Public anger has never been so omnipresent and neither have our politicians come under such a heavy scrutiny(no wonder they have been royally goofing up and giving tactless statements which is doing nothing less than fuelling the fire). Targeting foreign nationals in the attacks was … Continue reading »
Terrorism, Mumbai and the Jealous Kid
During the 1980s, when Punjab was in the claws of Terrorism, I was watching Doordarshan when something came up which I would never forget.

I don’t know … Continue reading »

Many of us have gone through such feelings, when we have … Continue reading »
Love Story 2050 – Movie Review
What could have been the first Indian sci-fi movie and a turning point in the Indian cinema turns out to be a damp squib. The movie reminded me of 10,000 B.C. and Jhoom Barabar Jhoom. 10,000 B.C. because the promo of the movie were very promising to say the least and Jhoom Barabar Jhoom because … Continue reading »
The Grand Theft of it all
My mother always complained that I spent more time with Three headed dragons and Bloodthirsty vampires than her. “What do you get by killing all those poor beasts?”, she used to say. My father, on the other hand, worried about the strain I put on my eyes and moved his head from left to right … Continue reading »
Incest : Forced vs Consensual
Forced Incest While jumping through news sites, one of my friend pointed out the Josef Fritzl’s case. The story made me gasp in horror. Fritzl has been repeatedly raping his daughter from the past twenty years and has fathered seven children with her, out of which six are surviving. Fritzl has been keeping his daughter … Continue reading »
