Amitabh Bachchan is no Marlon Brando

Thursday, July 7th, 2005

And Abhishek Bachchan is no Al Pacino. I have seen Godfather in parts and Ramu has apparently said that the movie Sarkar is based on his inspiration from Godfather. It gives a feel of being based on Bal Thackeray. In my opinion, the movie sucks. Amitabh just does not give me the feeling what Brando [...]

The fun with smoking is gone

Tuesday, July 5th, 2005

Smoking was fun as long as it gave me that 3-minute kick. Now that it no longer does that… it is more of a distasteful experience. I think I would leave it now and find something else!

Amitabh Rocks for Kaun Banega Crorepati

Tuesday, July 5th, 2005

For a change, Amitabh actually looked cool in a rap song sung by himself. He has not even overacted in the promos of the Kaun Banega Crorepati II. Looks like the Ramu Effect from Sarkar has not faded yet. He looks awesome in Sarkar.

Mangal Pandey: The Rising

Monday, July 4th, 2005

The mini trailers are out. Discover the birth of your independence is an excellent punch line. The website says it is the Ballad of Mangal Pandey. Whatever it is, I believe it would be an excellent movie and would set the standards for the others to follow. The movie has been aimed for the Oscars [...]

If GMail was not there?

Sunday, July 3rd, 2005

I would be stuck with a crappy email client. That would have sucked.

Saw Maruti Suzuki Swift and fell in love with it

Sunday, July 3rd, 2005

I finally saw the red hot Swift standing in a parking lot and I fell in love with it instantly. I would see what GM does with Spark/Matiz before I will start saving money to get one for myself.

Financially worst period

Sunday, July 3rd, 2005

The last ten days have been financially worst for me in the last couple of months. I need to do something soon or I am dead.

Me and smoking

Sunday, July 3rd, 2005

Dad almost caught me smoking a cigarette inside the office but apparently said nothing after that. Looks like either he missed or considered it to be a trivial issue I need to sort out for myself.
I got cool parents… I need to respect that fact.

Eye Doctor says I am fine

Sunday, July 3rd, 2005

I went for my routine eye-checkup to an eye specialist. And as usual he had just one thing to say. The eyes are fine and have no number. Just need some exercise and rest after every 30-40 minutes of work. Plus, since people blink little while working on the computer, I need to take care [...]

Fumigation going on…

Friday, July 1st, 2005

And they would dig through the entire basement to get it done properly! Whew… my mom would be so angry when she will see it… and she is coming here for 2 days today’s evening… No more smoking for the next three days…
