The ‘Ghajini’ Review
My first reaction to a name like 'Ghajini' was that it was a cartoon about a female elephant. Never mind the fact that I had the same reaction when someone mentioned 'Gajagamini' as well. The female elephant theory (that I came up with in a state of total sobriety) seemed validated when Aamir Khan beefed up by drinking a truck full of milk [...]
The Wonderful World of Sargeant Thikanov

Being a cheap and lazy guy who doesn't want to spend all his time at home online, I have consciously avoided getting another [...]
Yay!!! South Bangalore gets a Multiplex!!!
...with a mall thrown in for added measure. Yes, all of us that live and take pride in the awesomeness and modesty of south Bangalore now don't have to suffer the indignity of going all the way to the Forum, to Garuda Mall, to Lido Mall, or God forbid, to that horribly distant Innovative Multiplex to watch a movie. Not just that, as an [...]
