Gimme an 'S'! Gimme an 'I'! Gimme a 'G'! Gimme a 'N'! Gimme an 'A'! Gimme a 'T'! Gimme an 'U'! Gimme a 'R'! Gimme a 'E'!
Gimme a SIGNATURE!
Or specifically Suleman Mirza, there's a looker you've got! The dance duo Suleman and Madhu Singh of Signature kick 'arse'! I guess most of you'll have heard of them and even seen their videos on youtube (or met him if you stay in UK). Here's one I've got from youtube :D
I watched 'The Happening', 'Aamir' and 'Sarkar Raj'. The latter 2 at home, downloaded through Limewire. Piracy? Wellwhaddyagonnado, everyone does it.
Sarkar Raj is okay; its all hype. As usual Aishwarya can't act. But pretty she is :-) Very pretty. If you've seen last 30 mins of the movie, thats enough. You can save yourself the initial 1 and half hours of bore. The Happening is not so happening. It lacks the brilliance of Sixth Sense, but is much better than the Lady in Water. No need to watch it in theatre. Wait until the DVD/VCD is out. Or Limewire ;-)
Aamir, is a must watch. I never thought Rajeev Khandelwal could act. Of course, I steered clear of his daily soap and only read about his feud with Ekta Kapoor (idle at work is my justification to subject myself to torture of TV gossip). Back to the movie. He mentioned that most parts of th emovie was shot with hidden cameras, and that he got stares from the public when following instructions from the director.
About the plot: Its the story of how an urban Muslim doctor, played by Rajeev Khandelwal, finds his life suddenly thrown out of gear the minute he lands at Mumbai. His luggage is stolen, a mobile is thrust into his hands, and he's forced to carry out whatever the man on other end of the mobile asks him to do. His family is held to ransom. He knows of the enormity of the grave danger task only in the end; he's led to believe that he only has to deliver money to somebody and that he'll get his life back after that. He's made to go through the dirtiest, filthiest of Bombay's slums/areas, and is made to think that he's not doing enough for his community, i.e the Muslims. Rajeev doesn't buy the argument and says that a man can make his own destiny, religion has got nothing to do with it. Does he carry out the job and frees his family, or he backs out to do what (he thinks) is right - marks the end.
Its a well thought-of and well directed movie. The lead actor is very apt for the part, and his dialogues of how religion is no deterrent to come up inliffe, is not at al preachy. It sounds like its coming from a man who's led a simple, though hardworking life. The locations are realistic; you feel for the actor as he huffs and puffs his way through those streets, to complete the unknown man's job. I'd give it 3 stars out of 5.
And what the hell is happening in Zimbabwe? Rubert Mugabe doesn't want to quit. The first round elections held in March, in which Morgan Tsangvirai won, signalled end of Mugabe, so now Mugabe's supporters are killing Tsangvirai's supporters and other commoners who don't vote for him. Poeple have started applying ink on their fingers themselves to show they've voted (just to escape Mugabe's monsters), and on knowing this Mugabe's men have started cross-checking it with the people's voter IDs. Kitna bura haal hai wahan. All this violence in a country that got independence in 1981, whose unemployment is above 80%, inflation is at 100000% (yes one lakh percent. 1 US $ = 7 billion Zimbabwean dollars). People have 500 million dollar notes over there they use to buy vegetables! Hai o rabb! Kya ho raha hai duniya mein? Whats the world coming to?
And here's some feel-good news. WALL-E has released! Waste Allocation Load Lifter, Earth-Class-- thats WALL•E!!
Its an animation movie by Pixar, the lead is the cute robot called WALL-E. The movie has almost no sound, except for the sounds and grunts of WALL-E. It captures the story of this robot in an Earth where humans no longer exist. There's a pile of garbage all over the world. And he starts collecting and adding them to his souvenir collection. An animation movie with no voice? Only a robot? And a set that screams 'Earth is now full of garbage'? As an animation movie fan , take my word for it - it's gonna be a great movie. Check out this article on Time magazine. I can hardly wait for it! Here's the trailer!
