I Don’t know If I should be saying this after so much hype and pouring recommendations to watch this movie …

I did not like the movie ROCK ON !! I was totally bored and unconnected ; I kept on searching for the “Awesome” thing in it !!

It kept on trying to resemble DCH and failed to reach that level badly. There are too many things to crib about but I give them a skip.

Yes,I agree to that point raised that if you feel you can not move on something; it is always look back and give a second chance. Life is worth it  than brooding over it life long. It is never too late for the things.

It came as a pleasant surprise. It is a serious movie given the plot revolves around the 11th July BombBlast in Mumbai.

It tried to peep into minds of different characters how they react to this whole Blast Event. The movie is almost realistic.

The performances are good. Be it idealstic Nikhil of Madhavan; Or a man of few words tamil kabadiwala Irfan Khan. How reporters are interested to make a story out of everything and how much it is difficult to handle when you are the victim !!

The constable “Tukaram Patil” played by Paresh Rawal speaks a lot of corrupt police life ; and the suffocation through which a new joinee Qadam goes through.

The change of thought process from a Racist ; Kay Kay Menon plays it well.

Overall a watch worth.

My Friend ordered some Ayurvedic Medicines from a web site. Before placing the order she enquired   that if they will be able to supply the medicines to her place. When she got a positive reply she went ahead with the order.

After two days she got to know the order status has been changed to “Shipped”. Hence she was waiting for the medicines to arrive. They said it would arrive within 15-20 days. When the medicines did not arrive even after 20 days; she wrote back to them. She got update saying it might be in transit and hence the delay.

Now it has almost been more than a month since she placed the order. No medicines received. She wrote back to the support link on their website, but no response. There are no contact numbers on the website. All she knows is that the center is based out of Bangalore.

Is there something can be done about this ? or just wait and watch is only thing left ?

Mix of Good and Bad August 20, 2008

That’s how it was if we look at the new movies over last week.

  • God Tussi Great Ho : Nothing actually great about it. The script was okay but it had a bad bad execution. I liked Priyanka in few of her past roles; but this was total dumb one. Sohail was irritating as always. It kept me reminding another terrible movie “Hello Brother !! ” :-( Never understood why Big B was showing off the Jitendra style white suite and white shoes. :D I was expecting him wearing the “Ramayana” style outfits actually !! :-P
  • Bachana ye Haseeno - A good pass time. Ranbeer carried the movie on his shoulders. I think Bollywood needed one young generation romantic hero ; now that SRK has crossed 40 :-) His chemistry with Deepika is awesome. Minisha Looks very fresh in first half and she looks bad in the second. Bipasha did not gel well with Ranbeer !! The age difference was very visible. I Liked the pace of movie in the second half. But what missed most you know ? That typical YashRaj Romance ; that keeps you hooked to screen like DDLJ. May be I should wait for next SRK movie !! :)

Of Ghosts & Ghost Tales August 15, 2008

I have been happily enjoying reading those “Booooooooooo Chronicles” over HERE.

…….But I have to confess; I am ACTUALLY very scared for these Ghost -Bhoot whatever you call it !! :-(

I can not

- Watch a scary/horror movie in the night

- Discuss anything ghost related before going to bed !!

Ghosts/ mind games/ crap what ever ; I find them all scary !!

Having Said I love to read the ghost related books and stories :P of course in day time :D

Oh this reminds me ; there was this story floating around in my native when we were young kids.

There was this fort in my native. People used to say in the night ; they can hear the sound of anklets / payals in the fort. Also this lady sings songs to sleep her baby !! :-|

It was also famous for well which has red colored water; hence called “well of blood ” :O

Anyways we never went to the fort ; not even tried to find the truth. May be it was just a story to keep people away or whatever !!

I guess every city has such a fort and related interesting story and a pipal tree where the ghost is suppose to be present :D What say ?

I was expecting it to be a good movie; mainly because of the cast. All of them talented ; Kay Kay Menon, Vinay Pathak, Simon Singh, Rajit Kapoor. But alas !! It turned out disappointing one.

It starts on a good note. When you keep expecting the thrilling climax the movie suddenly comes to a halt. You keep wondering what happened and why this sudden end  !!

Having Said I loved the concept and experiment as such. but it lacked a super execution.

Sad enough for those a few audience who would think of watching it !! ( Read me :-) )

You can find more detailed reviews here and here.

No I am not gonna write the review. Fun movie that ends on a mushy note.

I could not stop myself from comparing it with “Pyar ke side effects “

Good one to pass time.

Liked Malika like I always do ;)

Ranveer Shorey is spontaneous !!

few moments are hillarious!!  Like

- when Malika makes Ranveer walk wearing her heels. :) :-)

- Ranveer wearing a peticoat ; riding a cycle ; steals a red rose to give malika on her birthday !! :D :D

It was fun riot :D and moreever the ideas were new and fresh !! :-)

P.S : watch out for 99 slaps and one kiss ;)
