Sex, Lies and Betrayal

And just when I thought there was nothing to write about, D tells me about Om Puri’s reaction to his wife’s shocking expose of his sexual encounters.
Ok, so all you married people know this already, tell your partner one thing in a moment of emotion, and it will come back to you. I can’t [...]

Controversy Opens Here

Read a piece of news that said Muslims in India have issued a fatwa against the National Song because it calls us to worship the country. Even with some amount of patriotism, I think I understand their point, you know. Why would anyone go against the tenets of one’s religion, something that one follows in [...]

Bombay, Mumbai, MNS and a Cigarette

Confession time, fellas. I failed miserably in my attempt to quit smoking. Went without cigarettes one day for six hours and then gave in to the urge. Yet, I intend to quit. So I have reduced smoking drastically, from 30 cigarettes a day to 10 or thereabout. Don’t give up on me just yet, and [...]

About Internet from the Tata Indicom Walky

If you are thinking about getting a Tata Indicom connection to get to the internet, don’t even think about it. I took a connection some three years back at a rental of 1730, which was way too expensive anyway. But I had had no choice then, and couldn’t afford to wait the entire span that [...]

Why?

I might be talking out of my league here, but the truth is, the MiG 21 aircraft crash the other day had me exasperated. If I am not terribly wrong, this is the third MiG crash this year, and the ninth IAF plane crash. And each time I hear something like this, I wonder why [...]

Vikram Bhatt is an Animal

Read this report about how Vikram Bhatt says he is all for adultery. If you remember him, he’s this apology of a film director who gave us movies like Raaz 2, 1920, Madhosh, Aap Mujhe Achhe lagne Lage, Life Mein Kabhi Kabhi and Ankahee – all very forgettable movies, and had a roaring extra marital [...]

Double Jeopardy: What Happens?

Saw this horrible film called Luck. A word of advice to all you out there, Sanjay Dutt and Imraan Khan are NOT reason enough to see this shit.
Anyway, the reason why I am writing about it is, the film shows that a rapist who was meant to be hanged till death is allowed to be [...]

A Bright Idea

I come from a family where everything old and familiar is chosen above new-fangled stuff. My mother would never use those small battery powered fans over the traditional fan because she has grown up on those fans in times of a power cut and she believes that these handheld fans are way more effective than [...]

I’m A Spicy Saturday Pick, Fellas !!

Remember what I said about Suchitra Krishnamurthy and her newest scandal about the minor domestic help? Blogadda chose that as their Spicy Saturday Pick today, and here’s what the ed wrote about this:
Spicy : There are many incidents where celebrities were targeted by media and Suchitra’s was one such incident. Suchismita has a posted a [...]

Child Labour and Suchitra Krishnamurthy: Wrong, Really?

This has got to be the most ridiculous piece of news I have heard in some time. To say producers who are employing child actors are actually fanning child labor is ridiculous. Cinema, however badly made, is an art, and therefore actors are artists. How does the question of child labour enter the scenario?
If that [...]
