Movie Magic
There has been a progressive increase in the media's interest towards a particular movie, with each passing big budget release that happens out here in our country. Movies have tie-ups with soft drinks, television programs and IPL teams, which in turn help(?) in promoting the movie further so that hapless souls can venture out to watch them in [...]
Live Free or Die Hard
Die Hard 4.0 was among the millions of movies that I missed out on watching in the theatres due to a significant lack of enthusiasm or company (though the former is significantly more to blame than the latter), and with each passing week, the list seems to just grow and keep piling on. Now Die Hard 4.0 is not a classic or a masterpiece in any [...]
Allah ke Bande
Allah Ke Bande is a song by Kailash Kher from the movie Waisa Bhi Hota hai. The first time I heard that song was on the radio when I was travelling on the office bus, towards the office, trying to sustain a morning conversation with someone, and talking arbit stuff in general.

The wind whispered his own name in his ears, as it passed him by, and he was as oblivious to the sound of the waves crashing against the rocky cliff a few hundred metres below him, as he was to the tickling sensations caused by [...]
Rainy Day Man
This is something that might seem like a mundane narrative, and just like the other posts of this Live Journal, I presume you'd just end up reading the first line of this post and move onto the next one. Piss off, I don't really care. Bangalore, Bengaluru rather, over the past week or so, has been experiencing extreme rains, and commute from [...]
Dorky Guffaw and The PonyTale Tail
Dorky Guffaw is a superhero. He is a conventional superhero, in lieu of the fact that he does not conform to any of the stereotypes that you'd associate with every other superhero that you'd be aware of, who exists out there.Dorky Guffaw came into being, one fine ennui-filled afternoon, when a colleague of mine and I were engaged in arbit gtalk [...]
