Deepak Sehgal deserves a national award

At the end of the movie, when everyone was walking away, these words fell on my ears & I stopped
my feet but my determination started walking.. again...

When Deepak Sehgal fills the ink in the words of Tanveer Ghazi, 
it made my dead heart, 
beat.

This poetry ends the movie PINK -

Tu khud ki khoj me nikal
Tu kis liye hatash hai
Tu chal tere vajood ki
Samay ko bhi talaash hai

Jo tujhse lipti bediya
samajh na unko vastra tu


Jo tujhse lipti bediya
samajh na unko vastra tu

ye bediya pighaal kar
bana le inko shastra tu


Tu khud ki khoj me nikal

I host a show called Kaun Banega Crorpati and on the hot seat one day I had a young lady about 23 years old  who had reached the hot seat. I asked her where she came from. She said, "mai ek chote se gaav se ayi hu"(I come froma small village). I asked her, her life story. She said, 'after the 7th standard, her father stopped educating her. Because he said, ' tumhare upar mai aur paise, waste nahi karna chahta hu kyunki uske baad tumhari shaadi ho jayegi'. (I dont want to waste anymore money on you because after that you will get married)

'Apne paise zaya kyu karu tumpe?' (Why should I waste my money on you?). That is hurtful. This girl never listened to the parents, she revolted. She was thrown out of the house. She went to her grandmother's house, vaha bhi uske sath, aisa anyaay hua, tarah tarah ki uske sath badsalooki hui. (She suffered the same injustice there as well & was abused in various manners). But she continued to study on her own. And she landed up on the hot seat.

And I want to tell you, (insert audience clapping including me listening to his words), at the end of the game show, she won 25 lakh rupees. And when I asked her what she is going to do with this cheque? She said, 'I am going to take this cheque, to my father, and tell him, that even a daughter, is an asset to the family.

I have words of my own to write but so much beauty, calls to be spread -

Bras offend
So do breasts

And what do you know? 

So does a flat chest

Skirts are a no-no
Because legs are bare 
Jeans bhi mat pehno 
Because legs are there
(What about a long skirt? 
Dilemma, yaar! 
Brb consulting my book of sanskaars)
What if I cover myself 
From head to toe?
*cough* secularism *cough* security *cough*
Sorry. But no.
Enough! I renounce clothing
From now I will be nude
No way! What do you think you are –
A dude?
PINK is BLUE - BLUE is PINK
human expectations are different



Ae Dil Hai Mushkil - Karan Johar's love life

           , , , , , , ,      No comments   






This trailer earned me a self made degree in C.I.D.

I had my eyes & ears snooping the entire Internet for any word on the movie apart from 'Bulleya', which not to forget, is OH MY GOD WOW !

If rumours are to be believed, Aishwarya plays the role of an older woman whose husband (Shahrukh Khan :) ) dies. An attractive & lonely mystery is a thing of dreams & Ranbir Kapoor gets this dream.
But will this dream lead to a happy ending?

Whose one sided love is it? 


Watching the trailer leads one to believe that Ranbir loves Anushka but Anushka has a boyfriend in the film as confirmed by the actor playing it. She rejects him. Later a bearded Ranbir is seen romancing Aishwarya. In a particular shot, Ranbir is seen looking at Anushka who looks back at him while Aishwarya sees this.

This is what Karan Johar said about the rumours, 

"Ranbir does not have a double role at all. To the people who have seen his two looks in the film, I just have to say: ‘People shave, dude.’ There’s so much speculation. The other rumour I’ve heard is that it’s a Doosra Aadmi remake. It’s not, it’s not a film about infidelity at all. The ‘morality’ is not questionable, so to say. Just because a film has four characters, they wonder if it’ll be like Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna. Not at all."


FAWAD KHAN

He confirmed that he will be playing a DJ, his character becomes a backbone for a certain conflict of a character in the movie." 

IMRAN ABBAS

Abbas will be seen as a boyfriend of Anushka's character.

CHARACTER NAMES

Ranbir Kapoor - a Hindu boy named Ayan 
Anushka Sharma - a Muslim girl named Alizeh. 
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan - Saba Taliyar Khan

The lucky mascot Kajol will ofcourse put her wit in with the beautiful Lisa Haydon.

My last word - Karan Johar has been in love twice, unreciprocated.

Karan was quoted saying, "I told Ranbir that on some level, in some way, you are playing me." He added that ADHM is an unabashed take on un-reciprocated love which comes from his own life experiences.

"Normally I make films through observations that I filter through a dramatic, a cinematic palette. Not this time. I've been in love twice in my life and it's been un-reciprocated both times," Karan said.

Does Ranbir Kapoor fall in love twice with a failure both the times? 

A story about heart break but which heart will break?

Awaiting release..
