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 [...]
Making up for Lost Time
On the second Saturday of March this year, I was out in the evening to watch this movie titled 'The Other Boleyn Girl' at a cinema hall in downtown Seattle. After the movie was over, I was still in no mood to return home. Thus, I made a beeline for my favourite bar there, at the Capitol Hill Arts Center, and was sipping on a mug of Pabst Blue [...]
Child Free Zones
There are many things that I see and hear that irk me no end, and being the non-confrontational skinny guy that I am, I choose to rant about it by posting it on LJ.

I am targetting techies because I like making fun of myself. There, I just absolved myself from all vitriol [...]

They star some big names in the Hindi film industry and their music is already being played on most channels, and the stars of the respective movies are appearing in promotional chat shows, news interviews and the whole publicity jazz thing that accompanies the big release of a [...]
Flashback
Following is a post I had written on IMDB as a movie review for 'Swades', soon after I had seen the movie, in July 2005. I was trying to see how much I have changed since then, and the only thing I can say for sure is that I make consious, albeit unsuccessful attempts to write shorter sentences. Everything else remains the same. The original [...]
Dorky Guffaw – the Chick Flick God
Dorky Guffaw is a Chick Flick stud, according to Monkee. So much so, that to augment his already tarred and feathered reputation vis-a-vis aforementioned genre of movies, he's also been privy to a surprise birthday present, details of which will be presented later in the post.Dorky Guffaw had been to Mumbai in the last week of November 2007.
