What's Love

Most of us regularly receive forwards on variety of topics. Most of them are spam, however some are intesting and good to read. I am trying to post few of those interesting forwards on my blog


What's love?

When you are together with that special someone, you pretend to ignore
that person. But when that special someone is not around, you might look around
to find them.

At that moment, you are in love.


Although there is someone else who always makes you laugh,
your eyes and attention might go only to that special someone.

Then, you are in love.

Although that special someone was supposed to have called you long back,
to let you know of their safe arrival,
your phone is quiet.
You are desperately waiting for the call!

At that moment, you are in love.

If you are much more excited for one short e-mail from
that special someone than other many long e-mails,

you are in love.


When you find yourself as one who cannot erase all the
emails or SMS messages in your phone because of one message
from that special someone, you are in love.

When you get a couple of free movie tickets, you would
not hesitate to think of that special someone.

Then, you are in love.


You keep telling yourself, "that special someone is just a friend",but you realize that you can not avoid that person's special attraction. At that moment, you are in love.


While you are reading this mail, if someone
appears in your mind,

then u are in love with that person...;))

Apaharan: A solid movie after long time

Yesterday I went to watch Apaharan in Priya theatre with my friends...(Swarup, Nalin, PKG, Kanchal, Vibhuti, Rakhecha)...
Not only the movie was good we discovered a nice theatre...

About the Theatre:
We had never been to Priya theatre earlier and when we were deciding for the hall it was very low on the list as it felt like a shady theatre...and it was very low on our list. However that was the only one where we could be sure to get tickets. So we went there:

Positives:
  • Theatre was ok from outside, however in terms of seats it was awesome...35Rs seats were sofa seats with ample leg space and plenty of room for you to spread around..
  • Sound system was nice and screen was good.

So overall a nice theatre for good movie watching experience.

Negatives:
  • It didn't have any proper eating joints inside or nearby and we were starved there as we didn't have lunch.
  • Crowd was not impressive...almost pathetic (you know what I mean ;-) )

About the movie:

After a long time I saw a movie with nice story, fundoo dialogs, amazing direction...not a single scene was extra or un-necessary (except may the item number song :-) ). Ajay Devgan and Nana Patekar did fantastic roles. First half of the movie went so fast that I didn't have time to think...movie was simply spell bounding..Second half of the movie was slower than the first half..but by no means will you call it slow when compared to other movies...Usually such movies with intricate plots fall apart in the end, but not with Prakash Jha. He wrapped up the whole movie with amazing ease and ending was great...(as great as it can be for such movies).

This movie is about a guy living in Bihar and who is trying to become something in his life..he is hardworking, smart..ready to fight for truth...

However soon he realizes he is stuck because he is not dealing with system..he is not giving bribes..and more over finds that his father does not support him in his crusade to get a better life. He gets disappointed.

It this disappointment which leads him to go opposite his fathers path..ie to path to become criminal..He is definitely smart and soon becomes a big criminal. He is feared..he is revered..

However that is point when he realizes that what ever he do he can never have trust of his fellow people...there will always be somebody trying to kill him..he had already lost his girl friend, his father was already not speaking to him...he was suddenly all lonely and no where to turn to...he was broken and at that point he decides to end it all...first by trying to help police then when it fails by killing the main culprit himself..

In the end it is a simple story with amazing presentation..
