Adoption......

I once read in Linda Goodman's book that people with the sun sign-Aries tend to adopt people rather than befriend them....

Hmmmmm.... many many many years later methinks that I agree.

The main problem in this scenario is that the person who gets adopted often doesn't realize that he has been adopted and then ensues a comedy of errors and often a tragedy of high proportions.....
All this in because of expectations and no expectations I guess...

So I think that it is best to go slow and not help people unless they ask for help, we should just watch people falling into holes and then rush forward only when they cry out aloud( aka Mahi..)     .....Naaah! This is something that I have never done and will never do, I shall always warn the person that there is a pit before they fall in, and if the person feels that my warning just slowed them down, just too bad ya!

Saw GOW yesterday and was so impressed, what a movie, too blasting good....

Also am two-thirds done with my chanting...tried to chant without the text and failed so miserably, so all I can conclude is that I have probably developed some sort of a mental block for that chant, coz I certainly was able to memorize other stuff....hmmmm.. Maybe Miss Marple can tell me how to get to the bottom of this...

Thappad

Thappad The prelude to the aria that is Thappad, is a dizzying runabout of a homemaker's humdrum daily chores. It serves to establish the roles each character has established for themselves. The husband played by newbie, Pavail Gulati is wonderfully self-obsessed and completely oblivious to anything but his own needs. The wife played by Tapsee Pannu ( as if we didn't know! Ha ha!) is on the other end of the spectrum. She is hyper aware of the needs of all those around her and revels in being needed and being able to be of service. The nuances that are written into the script are sheer brilliance. Consider the opening montage introducing the main characters to us. The wife being driven about, the girlfriend being received with love and finally a super successful lawyer finding freedom in hanging out a car window. The conversation that ensues between all of them, sketches skillfully the back stories of the lot of them. The movie is far from being a chest beating comment...

Good things come in threes!

 For me, good things come in threes………. And yet again, three things that made my week and will for certain go on to make my weekend. A web series – The Ba***ds of Bollywood. This is such a fun ride. I must start with the mockery that is made of the entire Sameer Wankhede incident. They found an actor who closely resembles the real-life officer; it is hilarious. It is just good fun, and should be taken in that spirit, forget the cries of nepotism; I know of generations who practice the same profession repeatedly, so let us give this one a rest, shall we? It has all the ingredients of a bhel puri, and they are used well. So do not watch this one expecting caviar. We have seen Raghav Juyal and Lakshya Lalwani slug it out in Kill and show very good chemistry, so also in this one. One brilliant scene is the one in which the protagonist scares the heebie-jeebies out of a critic, who is totally modeled on Rajeev Masand. Too much fun! And such swagger! And ah Bobby Deol, the phoenix – what...
