welcome to my world: January 2006

Movies seen lately:

Anger Management - quite nice
The Goal - pretty nice
Devil’s Advocate - dont talk about it.......superb
JFK - beautiful
Species - its so fuc$kingly shallow
Windtalkers - i dont know..i think i will not like to watch it over n over again
Face Off - (neha still drooling over it, cant express her feelings, not in a state to ;-)

Now is as good a time as any

I have a whole new life waiting ahead of me....and yet I'm finding it so hard to wait the few days to hear all about it?
Good news should never be conveyed in minute capsules....it's hard to wait for the next one, particularly when you know there is more to come.
I feel like a five-year-old child who knows there's more of her favourite chocolate in the refrigerator, but has to wait until the next day for the day's quota.

Maini Group:

Yes people. That is the company I will be working on from May onwards. (hopefully not)
Targeting something else. But the profile being offered is awesome by Maini Group. And this company was one for which I was most unprepared for. Just dint want it. Just sat for the kicks. Now see what I have got. But will definately get something better, or rather something I have been wanting since months. I m working towards it people.

UB 40 - I cant help falling in love with you

Time Machine

My earliest memory of a television is a black and white Dyanora that used to live in a wooden cabinet with shutters. Opening the shutters required an adult's intervention and I believe it is the best form of parental control ever. This was when I was about six years old. The TV used to live in my folks bedroom and on cold winter weekends, the families in Agra would bundle up in all their sweaters and shawls and walk through the fog to watch it. I still remember crying loudly when Amitabh Bachchan died at the end of Shakti and being pampered with Gold Spot (or was it ThumsUp) to shut up and stop making a scene. (But how could he just DIE like that??)

Other things I can remember are being afraid the power would go off just in time for Spiderman (as it always did) or waiting for Krishi Darshan to get over so that Chitrahaar could start on long Wednesday evenings. In fact I can remember a lot of things, but then this post would never end.

That set me thinking, that it would be great to know what everyone remembers or feels about those good old days. Nostalgia is always in fashion.

So here I am starting to write things you can remember about Doordarshan. I am not putting a number there because as I began to start my list I realised that 5 is too little. Below is my list:

1. Surabhi - The informative program. And it used to take us to far away lands, scenic, picturisque, lovely, made me dream to go there one day...the different people who featured there........

2. Malgudi Days - Taa Naa Naa Tana Nana Naaa - need I say more?

3. Street Hawk - This is Jesse Mach and ex-motorcycle cop, injured in the line of duty, now recruited by a top-secret government mission to ride Street Hawk... Man, that blew me away.

4. Ek se bhar kar ek - it started when doordarshan was dying..it was a movie songs countdown show.

5. The World This Week - Prannoy Roy, cool graphics, Tony Banks's music. International news was here...and how!! I used to wait for the Newsmakers section with bated breath.

6. The language movie on Sunday afternoon.

7. Mouse Mouse and gang.

That's my list, and I have left out a lot, and stuck to really old stuff. Chaddi pehan ke phool khila hai, Gul Gulshan Gulfaam and other stuff - I hope to find on other lists.

The setting on the time machine should be circa - 1983.

Cheers.

The Call

Somebody called me today to say sorry. He just called me and said sorry for hurting me. Now that call made me think. Think about the past. About the person and me. About our relationship. The November of 2004. The 28th. The breakup of, what I once thought, love.
But i m living in the present. I have moved on in life. And i dont think of him anymore.

Movies seen lately...

Saw 2- wont say it was equally bad as the previous one, IT IS WORSE! no no no dont think that i dint like it, i loved it, but ironically i felt like puking after seeing the movie. but still i loved it. i hated it. guess that is what the intention of the director was. mission accomlished.

LA Confidential-would not have liked or rather understood the movie, had achint not explained it to movie. poor guy was making him pause the movie so often to grasp it.

Confessions of a dangerous mind-i thought i dint like the movie, but i did. have been thinking about it since i saw it. now this is a movie which will grow on u.
