I just don't understand what all this hype regarding "Slumdog Millionaire" is all about.I personallly found it a just-above-average kind of a masala flick which can be watched only once. "The Dark Knight" to me was the best film of 2008.As far as A.R.Rahman is concerned, do we really need the Oscars to recognize his talent? Are we blind? Are we deaf? Are we dumb?He has given at least a hundred

In India, there are 2 types of people who join politics -1. Ones who have their own set of principles and ideologies and who from the core of their heart want to do something good for their country and countrymen.2. People who have realized they are basically good for nothing in all fields of work and have been failures in their lives. The only things they are good at are playing blame-game,

Really sensible peace of journalism by the otherwise biased Paki media. Very balanced.Not the usual crap like this or this that they broadcast.

I feel completely agitated and angry like millions of Indians at this time.I don’t even feel like reading/writing anything so will try to keep it short.These guys have hit us before and will keep hitting us harder in future also as long as the eunuchs are in power.There is nothing new. Since 1947 we have only voted for and chosen eunuchs to lead our country who only talk and talk and talk and do

After all this hue and cry , Mamata Banerjee, the worst person I have ever seen, heard of or read about (and I'm sure not too many would disagree on this with me) should either be exiled or encountered.She doesn't deserve to exist any more.She has never done anything good, fruitful or productive to anyone, not even to herself.Mamata, shame on you - you publicity-whoring, power-greedy,

Well, Ricky Ponting thinks one can't question his integrity in the game of cricket. Okay Mr Ponting, let's not question your integrity and assume that you are the most honest person that ever lived on earth. Therefore, you should 'call a spade a spade'. Shouldn't you?Then what's wrong if at all someone has called a monkey a monkey?Like it or not, BCCI has more influence in world cricket than ICC

Poor Bilawal Bhutto. I can feel for the kid.He is yet to get over the shock of losing his mother.And even before he has fully recovered from it, he is being dragged into the dirty, stinky field of politics, that too in the shitiest of all shitty countries in the world - Pakistan, the Global Headquarter of terrorism.One of course might argue that he is nineteen years old, therefore is an adult and

I'm not going to name the person who said this."Call me a dog, call me an asshole, call me a bastard, even call me a motherf***er if you want, but please for God's sake don't call me a Pakistani."** This Indian man having the surname 'Khan', was asked by a Japanese man if he was by any chance from Pakistan.

Orkut is great. It's fantastic. But you need to use it intelligently to get maximum benefit out of it and not to get into any trouble at the same time.When I say 'trouble', I have something very specific in my mind. A one-off incident may be but that doesn't guarantee that there are no other potential troubles associated with the use of orkut.Here is a simple story of a poor guy who got himself

Never before have I seen a Chief Minister, or any minister for that mattertaking as big a political risk as West Bengal CM Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee is taking.In fact, if looked at it more thoughfully, it's not just big, it's a rather immense political risk to be taken.He has still not given up on his totally anti-Marxist drive for industrialization in WB. And we have to keep in mind that he has

-ONE-Sitting in the waiting lounge of Bangalore International Airport, I had my heart pounding and legs shaking. It could have been due to the excitement of going abroad all alone for the first time or it could have been because of the doubts expressed by my friends about my chances of survival in Japan still playing at the back of my mind. I’m still not sure why, for I was both nervous and

It is not an unknown fact any more that Bangalore Traffic Police Department actually consists of hundred per cent pure, trained and seasoned robbers who have been given the 'license to rob' (their uniform) common people driving / riding on the roads - no matter whether they have violated any traffic rule or not.Whenever these uniformed bastards need some extra money they would take off their

Well, it was only after I ended up paying a huge amount of Income Tax in the last fiscal (2006-2007), I realized it was high time we, the tax-payers in India got a much clearer picture of what exactly our taxes are contributing to.Some investigation on Google, as well as what I had known previously make me strongly believe that taxes, the increasingly gigantic portion of our hard-earned money get

For Team India's recent debacle at the World Cup, if there is one person to be singled out, it has to be the coach Mr Greg Chappell and NO ONE ELSE.But, a post-mortem, a thorough introspection is unavoidable and it has to be done immediately. The call of the time is to look back and decide on how to look ahead.Whether the coach is an Indian Coach or a foreign coach doesn’t really make any

I don't know much about any religion, not even my own. I was born and brought up in a somewhat traditional yet moderately liberal Hindu family where everyone worships multiple Gods and Goddesses at least twice everyday by lighting agarbattis and diyas and offering flowers and sweets but no one looks down upon people belonging to another religion/caste.I just came across something which I don't

When he was left out, we shouted "He deserved a much much much much much better farewell."Almost a year later when he has been recalled, 'they' are shouting "He is the unlikely beneficiary of the present crisis."Only time will tell who is right and who isn't. And, somehow my gut-feeling says 'they' are going to be utterly disappointed in near future.I never liked Ganguly until he became a victim
