Asses at the movies.

I didn't want anything to corrupt my post about Kesari and so I am writing this separately.

At the Movies, surely it's not to tough to behave properly.

The guy sitting next to me, was quite voluble, and I had to struggle to not let him spoil my movie experience.

Also the heights was that he actually took the popcorn and water that I had ordered for myself. It was the server's fault, but surely this nitwit didn't have to eat it, just coz it was free. And when asked why he took it, he calmly said that he thought it was complimentary.

Oh My God! How entitled do you think you are that you were the only one in the entire effing theatre to be offered free food? Did you think you had won some secret popcorn lottery?

Or did you think that it was sent over by a secret admirer? 
And on top of all that to hear you chomping your way through it, punctuated with burps like jhankar beats was the absolute pits.
Thank God Inox is my domain and I was able to get another seat.

And then to cap it all this dumb f&$$^^$ refused to pay the money, saying that since the fault was the server's he wasn't going to pay.
You moron! I realise you have just crawled out of a bug's backside, but do you not know that it will be the server whose salary will be deducted?

Anyways God bless your heart and may you always be blessed with bedbugs.

Monica, O My Darling

Straight off the bat, let me tell you that I went into this movie cold. I just saw the trailer and put it on my watch list. I was totally enamored with the cast and the premise. I knew I was going to watch this one, so I didn't delve into the promotional shenanigans.  So if you are of the same bent of mind, stop reading and start watching.  And on your behalf, I did Google Ankola, it is a town in Karnataka and is not to be confused with Akola in Maharashtra. Ha ! Ha! Netflix has been delighting us with gems like Raat Akeli thi, Haseen dilruba and Bulbul. Add this one to that list and think Gehraiyaan. I need not stress on the proficient star cast. They are masters of their craft. Starting with the sneaky Rajkummar Rao, the sultry Huma Quereshi and the wily Radhika Apte, the ensemble includes the creepy Sukant Goel, the beleaguered Zayn Marie and many others. For me Sikandar Kher was a standout. A shoutout to his intensity and his baritone.  The dialogues are spot on and t...

Anvita Dutt, is a master story teller. And she, tells this one well too. She and Kanika Dillon have a knack of painting their leading ladies in shades of grey. Whilst Kanika brings in the whacky and the wild, Anvita brings in the angst. It makes for great entertainment.  This movie seeps in slowly and is for those of you who like the slow burn. There is drama and angst and tragedy and it leaves you wondering, what did I just watch? Was this a movie or sheer art? And it is a movie that stays with you for a bit.  The visuals are stunning, particularly those of the boat on the water. The noir-ish feel of the movie fits the mood perfectly. One does know what has happened and why, but the visuals and the artistry keep you in thrall. This is the story of a woman, who learns to be competitive in her mother's womb itself. Her quest for survival began in the womb itself. She then spends all her childhood and teen years having only her mother and constantly craving her validation. Is ...

Shades of Grey

For a very long time I have held a rigid view about what is right and what is wrong. And never have I ever allowed myself to be deviated from what I thought was correct and incorrect. I am not saying that I always did the right thing, but yes even when I was doing the wrong thing I did know that i was wrong. No one had to hold up the metaphorical mirror and tell me that I was wrong. I knew it all on my own. So veering between being an absolute Gandhian and a naughty imp, I had more or less kept my moral compass due north. In fact I was quick to judge people on their actions, without trying to place myself in their shoes and walk a few miles, to see what the impediments were. I was always pretty  smug about knowing what was white and what was black. But as they say, its only when we experience something do we truly realize what it was to have stood in someone's shoes and made a decision which felt totally right at that time. Would you condemn a hungry urchin for stealing food? ...
