The Rip Off Factory – Bollywood!! PART ONE

What counts in Bollywood is Time and money!! Writers under pressure from the directors/producers more often than not pick up a hollywood DVD, copy the script, filter out some stuff that might not be appropriate for the Indian public, throw in some songs and voila! We have a new movie. These rip-offs, obviously are mostly horrid. Here am writing about some that I have come across,

Am I Addicted??

03:18 am

All this blogging has sure gone to my head! Seems like am addicted now.

In parts, its also to do with wordpress. Ever since I moved here from Blogger, I have started posting more regularly. Longish way to say am loving WordPress, but pardon me.

Seriously, WordPress is just infinitely better than the Blogger.

Anyways, I guess that’ll be the final post of the day, coz its late, and I better sleep.

Ok then, Cya!!

Time For a New Car? [Update - 18/05/2010]

** Updated: 18 May 2010 **

Planning to get yourself a new car? Great!! But, please, for the sake of your hard earned money, go through the following links just to be sure that you don’t bet your buck on the wrong car.

I am talking about Skoda here, indeed they make great cars. No doubts. But the kind of attrocitites one has to go through to own one is no way acceptable. Sure, there are happy owners, good for them, at the same time there are just too many horror stories about this brand. Final call rests with you, but do spend some time on the links I am providing.

Using GPS on your cell III : MG Maps On Nokia 5800

Last time I wrote about Mobile GMaps, I promised to write a tutorial. But, haven’t got the time yet. So, here I’ll be posting some of the links that helped get me started. Hope it works for you too.

Though the site provides further links about the things you’ll need to download, I am providing the latest ones here again,

Dil Bole Hadippa? Rather mildly!!

Latest from Yash Raj, touted as Rani’s comeback venture, is a family watch with liberal dose of cricket in the backdrop. And as is the thing with most of its movies, rural punjab is the setting.

Rani plays a small town girl who dreams to make it big in the world of cricket.

Shahid is a superstar already, playing county cricket in Uk while Papa Kher, plays friendship matches with a friend across the border. The whole india-pak friendship theme gets to you at times. Too much of a drama.

Too many loses sees papa calling his son to help. Son comes and starts building a team. Rani sneaks in as a male player. What follows is simply put, fun. Don’t try to reason or find logic and you’ll be fine.

Acting wise all are good. Rani has overacted at places but all in all, a good show.
Special mention of the cricketing scenes here, Rani has pulled them off quite nicely. Doesn’t look bad at all.

Worth 2.5/5
