A Birthday Gift
Think of a birthday gift...
Okay, its for a girl.. of your age..
Now think..
Teddy bear ? Archies card ? Leather wallet ?
Ho gaya ?
Okay, here is what i gave as b'day gift to S.
A movie !
Doesnt sound any special ?
Now consider that she hasnt been to a movie since
landing in Bangalore. In fact, if you put it in terms of
number of years, it will run into 8 LONG years !
So its special..
Saturday, July16, 2k6:
Alex was also with us. (After all, S is his cousin, before
she is my friend) :-)
He wasnt keen on watching a Hindi Movie.. But he was ok
with Krrish and Fanaa. But both S and I had watched these
movies. So we zeroed into Phir Hera Pheri.
Its an okay kinda movie.. At times you feel, the lead actors
(especially Paresh Rawal) is doing it a lil bit tooo much!
Overacting has always been Akshay Kumar's trademark.
And acting has never found an entry into Suniel Shetty's
dictionary. Add to this some lacklustre dubbing, and you will
feel like kicking the director Neeraj Vora (who does a cameo
in the movie, sitting in a bus beside Akshay Kumar and talking
over his mobile)
But on top of all this mis-fits, there are some tickling comedy
sequels. The climax is typical of a Priyadarshan film.
Note that Neeraj Vora has assisted Priyan in some of his prev
movies as writer. Hence such an inheritance is not unexpected.
You can find utter chaos, with ppl running after each other, for
one reason or the other. But the 'circus' climax is good.
The film seemed to have ended rather abruptly - with the viewers
left guessing, whether the heroes lived happily thereafter or not.
Or is it an attempt to put the foundation stone for yet another sequel?
Whatever...
Well, the Friday night movie was followed by a Saturday noon treat
by S at Hotel Imperial. Again, the three of us. Had never stuffed so much
of items into my lil tummy of late :-S
Post lunch, had a meeting with the MD of Ittina Properties..
Quite a crowd of owners had gathered. Had a heated discussion.
(Not much on this... coz firstly, its out of context, and 2ndly, its
confidential)
=> what the hell
:D
