I try to say a lot while saying very little. Get used to it.
effectively
when you see this at the age of 10, you never really lose that feeling of terror. every single time.
or, ever learn to relax when this happens.

Stuff that struck me while reading about Sachin Tendulkar’s nearly unbelievable* feat, most of which will be repeated everywhere I look over the next few days/weeks:
On this day 21 years ago He completed a 664-run partnership with Kambli. Twenty-f*ckin-one.
His 200 contained 25 boundaries (the most by a single batsman in an ODI till date) More >
my problem with hindi movies today
about 1 month ago - 8 comments
There have been any number of reviews about the latest from the Bollywood stable (My Name is Khan) – ranging from vitriolic to sarcastic/mocking to adulatory.
I could write reams, spew abuse galore, and point out in how many different ways the movie gets it wrong… but I won’t. That’s too easy. Plus, people have already done a pretty good job More >
my event of a lifetime

It’s been too, too long.
Wish I had a good excuse.
Maybe this one: “Marriage does that to you.” Or even: “Things change like this after marriage.”
At the very least, marriage gives you a scapegoat that most married men will commiserate with. “Yes, yes.. I know what you mean.” Its either commiseration or a devilish satisfaction (as More >

Need I say more?
I can’t quite believe it myself.
Faux pas admission (18th Jan 2010): In my calculating of dates/times in IST and EST, I kinda mucked up and jumped the gun by 24 hours But hey, she just becomes a Mrs. missus
Thanks for the wishes, all.

The time has come.
Back to India.
Madness. All centered around me. And the missus. But me too!
There will probably be no posts for a bit here. I’m not live-blogging my own wedding, or even live-tweeting my honeymoon
Speaking of which, that is probably going to be the best birthday ever
It has taken its More >

Avatar is a mind-bogglingly spectacular extravaganza, proving Cameron has truly reinvented cinema as we know it.
I can only hope it pays off. It would be sad if such movies are not made because they don’t make enough at the box office.
IMAX 3D only. Please. Don’t insult the man’s effort. No 2D. No IMAX Digital crap.
Go.

Admittedly, one should not expect Schindler’s List from G.I.Joe: Rise of the Cobra. Is it too much to ask for just a modicum of sense though?
Apparently, we can extract neural impulses from a recently deceased person and then convert them to images. We can then analyze them for how long they have “decayed” (whatever that More >

“And Shepherds we shall be
For thee, my Lord, for thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand
Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee
And teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Spiritus Sancti.”

I am part of the generation that grew up on pure Hindi cinema – none of this new-age ‘finding yourself’ crap. It is the generation that venerates every immortal dialogue from Andaz Apna Apna. ‘Ai la, Juhi Chawla!’ ‘Chai baatne se pyaar badhta hai’. ‘Sawal ek, jawab do’. ‘Teja mai hun, mark idhar hai!’. ‘Mai More >

Dude…tell me about it…I could not sleep the night I saw this movie…scared the crap out of me…

If you did get scared on seeing that, I wish you had seen the hindi version of JP. It was an out and out comedy. The hindi translation for dinosaur was – ‘badi chipkali’… ‘waaah.. woh dekho badi chipkali…’ and things like that!
