Topic

Let’s talk about topic today.
She once said –
Normally we need a topic to talk.
But today let’s not pick a topic.
Let there be a topicless conversation.
(Sea doesn’t need to know its depth
And sky its vastness)

Whenever eyes starts speaking to each other,
The water takes the shape of the bowl.
The water never asks about its shape.
So, today, please don’t ask me-
What’s topic.
Let us just talk-
Today’s topic is – A Topic.

Those Women

The physical structure of each woman
I loved, were almost same.
But is her heart is as cool as
The stream flowing between the two hills.
She loved to eat snacks
She loved the fresh air
Streams and also rivers.
She was like a floating boat in the vast sea.
The other women loved to be like my mother
Loved to see deep into my eye
Loved mountains
Loved oceans
Loved my thoughts
Loved the sky and the sea
Where the water is still.
The island of many women are still uninhabited and unexplored.

Cheeni Kam


Nice movie. Few things I liked about this movie:

1. Camera Work. Brilliant work
2. Tabu’s performance: Was thinking if there is any other actress in the industry that could have done justice to the role and I landed back to Tabu.
3. Amitabh's look: He looked terrific and handsome in some particular shots. Acting as usual superb
4. Dialogue delivery: Liked this new style of delivery in the movie.
5. Zohra and Paresh and Sexy : All are above par and great acting by everybody.
6. Sense of Humor: Humor is at its zenith

Few things I didn't like:

1. ‘Aapki muche bahut khubsurat hain’ these kind of dialogues looked very kiddish when you are watching a movie with high value of dialogue deliveries and great sense of wittiness.
2. That kind of dialogue delivery when it becomes long it sounds dragging.
3. The last scene when Amitabh was trying to convince Paresh Rawal was completely illogical. Not a single point was worth convincing for Paresh Rawal to allow his daughter to marry a 64-year-old guy.

But the way the point of human selfish nature is exhibited is really superb. Amitabh could have asked for Sexy’s life but he didn’t instead ask for Tabu. His later realization clarifies it to the audience making the plot open to people.

Bottom line is worth watching movie in a theater leaving back your morality stuff back home.

What color of poem you are


If the first confusing feeling
Is poetry,
Then you are my first poetry.
But ...
What color of poetry you are?
This poem which was published in Shillong Bihu field
to the Central Library...
Those lonely lanes in Harisabha to
Those thin cables of telephone.
And those which were read by
Sleepless nights and confusing day lights
And...
The eagerness of meeting you
And the pain of its disappointment.

So what color of poem you are?
You seem to be the nadir of your kind.
The poem which could not be understood
By the poet himself.

Pursuit of Happyness- MOVIE REVIEW


“I Cried with Smith , I laughed with him”. That’s what exactly I did while watching the movie. Will Smith at his best in this movie. Gabriel Muccino’s one of the finest direction is Pursuit to Happiness.
The best part of the movie is the identification. Anybody who watches this movie can identify himself or herself in some point or the other in his or her life. He is a normal person who has bad days and good days in life but he still try to find joy in his bad days.
This movie is an inspiring and motivational one. It teaches us to try to be positive at every phase of life.
I would recommend this movie to anyone who is happy or sad or angry or frustrated or in love or in hate or who has just came to this world.. Must watch.. would like to cry and smile with will smith over and over again …

Babel-not at all confusing - MOVIE REVIEW


Saturday could not have been better with the movie 'Babel' playing in my room with my intimate friends around.

1st plot: Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett trying to break free (?) and goes on a long trip to Morocco.

2nd plot: An accidental firing by two kids of a goat herder results in political waves and swings across the nation.

3rd plot: In Mexico a Nanny of two American kids goes out to attend her grand son's marriage and series of unfortunate events follows.

4th plot: In Tokyo, a deaf and dumb girl(Rinko Kikuchi), battling with her isolation and cops looking out for her father who was a hunter in his young days.

And these four plots create the Babel where the director Alejandro Gonzalez stitches these 4 plots so beautifully that you are hooked to the screen till the end. Brad Pitt has justified his role for the moment he got as well Cate. Sign language was beautifully woven though I am not sure if the sub titles were there in the theater issue as I was watching a DVD.
Do not know if it was an intentional babel that the director wanted to create when Brad asks Cate discusses about her tensions - 'are you still tensed?.. Will you forgive me?..' No backdrop of the incident is given keeping audience in loop. Another incident when the Rinko (Tokyo plot) delivers a letter to the cop where the contents were not disclosed to the audience keeping viewers guessing.

The best thing I liked about this movie is that the plots were not kept till the end for a suspense revelation instead the plots were beautifully carried and revealed during the development of the movie. As a whole a nice Sunday movie to be watched with Dominos Pizza which you get really cheap now a days. ( Dominos guys - I should be paid for this advertisement - r u listening;-)

Abortion

When she fell in love,
Her shadow didn’t know it.
Neither the air
Nor the hearts near her.

When she expressed
The tempest echoed it
And she made a grave
Where she laid down her love.
She had an abortion
But the sleeping existence rebels
Like the tides of the sea,
And the bubbles of the rain.
Even knowing it’s a heinous crime;
It was indispensable.
She had an abortion
For a better time.

In one of the rooms of mine he studies,in another one he takes his meal, in one of them he sings ,sleeps in the other. He rents all the four rooms of my heart He is none but sorrow. - Nilim Kumar
