Billa:A treat to the eyes

Sunday, December 16, 2007

Billa 2007,a faithful remake of the movie Don/Billa is a real treat to the eyes in more than one form.Nirav shah who has handled the cinematography has matched the works of Mohanan who handled his profile in Don.The movie has the real sophisticated touch as the whole movie is shot at Malaysia.And then there is Miss 9thara who has been the real treat to the eyes with her skimpy attire.Oh man..she is really bold.Thanks to Tamil cinema which brought her from the backwaters of Kerala.On the whole thanks to Vishnu who took care that the audience do not go out for a fag when the movie is reeling.Its really tough job to do ,as the audience are already aware of the story and only a good screenplay/direction can make them stick to their seats.I am sure he had in his mind that the his Billa should at least be equivalent to the new Don if not better.I should say has succeeded.

The Emergency Times:LUMS

Saturday, November 17, 2007

Students of LUMS (Lahore university of Management studies,also called the Harvard of Pakistan) have started this blog called the pakistanmartiallaw which closely records the happenings during the Pakistan Emergency .Such a kinda students protests reminds us of the "Emergency" days in India under the Indra Gandhi regime.During that time the Delhi university students staged a widespread protest under the influence of leaders like Jaya Prakash Narayanan.Also one more notable factor is that studs involved were sons and daughters of top bureaucrats in the administration.Same is the case here where the students involved are kids of the people involved in the senior administration in Pakistan.Whatever may be the case these students at LUMS require a pat on the back.

Customer needz:Not for the customer

Tuesday, October 23, 2007

Customer needz is an online portal where people book tickets online for omni buses bound to different destinations.A service which small bus service providers and the IT crowd were longing for a long time now.Now this happened to me last friday.I had booked a ticket from Bangalore to Coimbatore in Conti travels via Customer needz.When i boarded the bus i could see one guy and two gals with a ticket which has the same seat numbers as mine.The much awaited quarrel happens between the conti travels official and our team(2 guys and 2 gals).And you know what?The resultant is I am told to get down of the bus because there is no entry with the data sheet available with Conti travels.He tells me that 2 seats is the quota allocated to customer needz and they are not to blame if customer needz books tickets in bogus.On further investigation it was found that it is common with customer needz to book tickets in bogus.Once they had booked 6 tickets with the same seat numbers with parveen travels,4 with Conti travels and 5 with National travels.So this is the news.Now to use or not to use customer needz in the near future is left to you.All the best.

Showcasing Manipal Institute:Too good

Saturday, October 13, 2007

Ever since i started learning to play guitar i have been googling about the word guitar a bit too much.In the midst of it I came across this wonderful video showcasing the Manipal Institue of Technology.The song Summer of 69 from Bryan Adams acts as the catalyst (also Hindi version..ever heard of it) to the creativity and the camera work of the video.Whoever was a part of the team which made this happen.....you people deserve a standing ovation.Watch this video and add your accolades in the comments section.Also this video has made me to google about the courses available at Manipal.Any leads

I always felt these fan clubs for the people in the cinema industry were a real waste of time and energy until I joined the Dr.Kamal hassan's community (courtesy: Orkut).A community to discuss about the legend and the legend only.Most recently the community got some recognition with this article.Hope this one motivates thalaivar to reach new heights.Thalaivaa..we are expecting more from you.
