Tyler Durden: Guys, what would you wish you'd done before you died?
Ricky: Paint a self-portrait.
The Mechanic: Build a house.
Tyler Durden: [to Narrator] And you?
Narrator: I don't know. Turn the wheel now, come on!
Tyler Durden: You have to know the answer to this question! If you died right now, how would you feel about your life?
Narrator: I don't know, I wouldn't feel anything good about my life, is that what you want to hear me say? Fine. Come on!
Tyler Durden: Not good enough.

My Name is Khan
My name is satish and let me tell you 'My name is Khan' is no classic, It sucks. With all the indian critics going Gaga over this movie , I and duppu went to watch this crap yestarday . It was quite evident that all the Srk's remarks and Shiv sena's publicity stunts working full time. Theatre was full!!.
Movie is full of ridiculous scenes and cliched emotions, that make you cringe in your seats. I remember an incident few months back when i and Duppu were walking in princeton downtown . She slipped a bit and almost fell, Immediately many people came to help her. Imagine a guy struggling to cross the road and they stop trolley, Come out and say words like “Move out you freak”!!. that is just ridiculous.
Kajol looks very beautiful . she surely looks lot younger but cannot handle her shrieking and screaming all the time. Especially the scene when her son dies, the acting was very irritating rather than emotional.
The only good thing in the movie is Srk's acting. Many scenes standout due to SRK'S acting. But make no mistake here. He is definitely not in the class of Forrest gump 'Tom hanks' or Rain man 'Dusitin Hoffman'.
But the most glaring thing that was obvious in the film is , It is clear ‘inspiration’ of ‘Forrest gump’. The narrative, SRK speaking, Bonding with his mother, Mama jenny (Remember bubba gump’s mother?!) and many more. Karan johar you suck. guys we're still not completely out of recession . dont waste your money on this crap.

Rann
What were you smoking when you made this movie RGV?. Seriously, what were you smoking. Are you the same RGV who directed movies like Shiva, Satya and Company in the past? or are you his evil twin who killed the real RGV and buried him in an unmarked grave?.
How amateur can the script be!!. how can a junior journalist, who joined a media company 3 days back can sit in the board meeting with the owner of the company and disagree with the owner's son's agendas!!.
The whole SMS thing was prolonged, Irritating and stupid. The movie just gets boring after few minutes into it .
Acting wise Big B, Sudeep, rajat kapoor, paresh rawal, Suchitra krishnamurthy and Mohnish Behl were good. Ritesh deshmukh has a constipated look throughout the film.
I wasted 2 hours and 20$ on this movie. I want my money back RGV. Give me back my money.

Movies I've watched lately

2012 - Edge of the seat disaster movie strewn with clichés . But absolutely loved it and duppu hated it!!.

Hangover - Love this 'R' rated comedy.
Paranormal Activity - 'Scariest movie ever' ? Wtf!! . a shoddy film . The scene where katie gets dragged out of bed was interesting :).

R.I.P Dr.Vishnuvardhan
Dec 30th , 2009 is a sad day for kannada movie lovers.
The veteran actor Vishnuvardhan who shot to fame with 'Nagarahaavu' in 1972 was a rare actor. His 37 year film career is strewn with gems like Muthina Haara, Bhootayyana Maga Ayyu, Bandhana, Naagara Hole, Hombisilu and Apthamitra. My personal favourite being 'Nagarahaavu'.
It is disgusting the way his fans or hooligans behaved . Public property was vandalised. Houses and stalls were looted. May those guys rot in hell.
As i write this i am listening to the evergreen melodious song..'Baare baare' ( P.B srinivas) from nagarahaavu.

Moonlight Drive
Standing in the balcony of third floor and sipping caffeine was very relaxing. It was a beautiful night .Clear sky , cool breeze and heavenly silvery light from the crescent moon soothed my nerves. I was trying to locate 'Saptha rishi' mandala' or 'Great Bear'. The last time i did star gazing was in 'kemmangundi' .
I was totally lost in the ambience . I heard a noise from behind 'so you're here'. I turned around to see Subs walking towards me.
'whom should we add in the CC' Subs asked.
'Are you done with your transports ? '
' I still need to do some testing before i could transport to QA'.
Even i had some work left to do . We had to send all our developments by tommorow and it was already 11:30 in the night. We started walking back towards our desks. Only i and subs were left in the floor and occasionally some guard would come and check on us. My cell phone started ringing . It was my dad.
' Appa, i am going to start in half an hour. My work is almost done'
' Dont come home , You better stay back . Its too late and it is not safe to travel at this time . City is very unsafe at nights'
' I will think about it. Anyways, I have home keys so you guys go to sleep '
I hated to stay back in office. Sleeping in my bed in home always gave me the most satisfying sleep. We got back to work and i was done with my tasks at around 1 am.
'Subs, I am done. Shall we leave?'
'Just give me 5 more mins '
'Ok'.
We packed our stuff turned off our comps and started walking towards car parking. I was happy that tasks had gone as we expected and can come to office next day late. It was 1 hour drive to home and had to drop subs on the way. To reach Subs home I had to take diversion at the railway crossing on the highway and
from there It is a muddy road and drive is quite bumpy for 2 Kms .This road runs parallel to Railway Track on the right and Open fields to the left.
The open fields is full of Latina bushes. I Always hated this particular stretch of road as my car becomes very dirty and the entire place has a acrid smell of acid probably due to some factory nearby . After the 2 Kms stretch along the railway track there is a big bridge above a sewage canal and from there on starts the Posh residential layouts !! , Where Subs stays.
City streets were empty and i was zipping through the streets in high speed. The same streets in the morning will be clogged with honking vehicles . The streets at this time are ruled by street dogs . I had my windows down and was enjoying the moonlight drive . We reached the rail junction and took a diversion towards Subs home and were going through that lonely stretch.
We were busy in talking and Suddenly A lady Passed in front of my car . She barely missed hitting right side front Headlights. Subs screamed out 'STOP'.
I immediately applied brakes. I turned around and put my head out of window to see if she is Ok . Subs was already shouting Expletives and he also looked out of his side window .
There she was Sitting in the middle of the road her legs were crossed and hands on the Knees .
She was wearing a Dirty white saree !!. She started Laughing Hysterically .The laugh was more like a 'Howl' . Suddenly a chill went though my Body . There was a certain Eerieness in the Laugh. The hair on the back of my neck stood up. I coudnt see her face Properly as her Long hairs were blocking it .I could tell that she was staring at us . I broke out in a cold sweat. I and subs stared at each other. I saw fear written all over Subs face. That lady stopped laughing and i turned back to see what happened .She got up and started walking towards our car in gaint strides. I realised that she was more than 6 feet tall . I was already numb with the experience and didnt know what to do. Subs started shouting ' Start the Car !!, Lets get out of here fast ' . She was around 10 feet away from car. I started the car and zoomed away from there. We upped our windows and I trying to see her from my back mirror. She was gone!!.
My heart was still beating fast. We were silent for some time and then subs broke the silence .
'she was not human'
'what!!'
'Yes, They call them 'Mohinis' in my village.They are very dangerous ghosts!!'
'Crap, she can be some mad woman or some Gang who were trying to divert our attention and then attack us and rob'
'Did you see her legs?'
'No i didnt observe'
'She was Gliding rather than walking!!'
True , her gaint strides was more like glide. My imagination started running wild. We reached subs home and sub asked me to stay in his home that night.
I said 'Dont worry, I wont take that route. I will take main road' The alternative road takes through Residential layouts and connects highway but it is 4-5 Kms longer.
I dropped Subs and took main road back home. Every few minutes i was turning around and checking my back seat . Everytime expecting to see a lady in white saree sitting in my back seat . Even to this day whenever i think of this incident my heart skips a beat.
I was totally lost in the ambience . I heard a noise from behind 'so you're here'. I turned around to see Subs walking towards me.

Dynasty Rules
Well , The horse trading has started . One party has got more than 200+ and with some bartering they will be able to form a pseudo secular goverment. I am Glad that atleast we will see a stable government and not a Hung assembly as predicted in the exit polls. On the downside , very sad to see a person with zero credentials in politics getting into cabinet and his only qualification is being grandson and great grandson of past Prime ministers .
By the way heard controversial song in youtube 'jana gana mana Rann' . Found it quite interesting and very apt in the current scenario.
"A house divided against itself cannot stand. "
- Abraham Lincoln

Slumdog Millionaire
This movie has a Critic rating of 94% in Rotten tomatoes!!. British movie with Indian backdrop and Indian actors !! had to watch it.
After much anticipation the movie was finally released in a theatre close to my home . This theatre is a 100 year old Bangalore "plaza" styled and is situated in front of beautiful Princeton University . People told me that only low budget 'Arty' type movies are released here.
I could see 99% ofthe audience were Americans and rest 1% were me and Duppu :) . As the movie progressed i realised this is not a Indian Movie at all !!. It is a 14 course meal ( or reels !!) carefully arranged and served to satiate the palate of western audience.
What does india mean to Western people ? .
Ans : Poverty, Big Population , Taj Mahal and Call Centre's ..Well, You find them all in this Masala Fairy tale.
This movie has too many technical flaws in it. How can a movie star make fun of or insult a chaiwallah on the national television. From when did rama become "blue". How can Slum kids speak impeccable British accent without going to school .
The execution of the movie is very average. The adolescent version of Jamal , Salim and Latika are the stars of the movie. They are just fun to watch . Dev Patel and Freida Pinto are mediocre actors and they just cant act. Duppu wasnt amused by the movie either . She almost throwed up when young jamal jumps into a cess pool. Movie story is too much masala to qualify anywhere near Gritty description of mumbai.
Avoid watching this movie in theatres if you value your money in these recession times.

Can you run the country without politicians?
This was the reaction of our former Sleeping PM H.D Deve gowda in response to the public outrage after Mumbai attacks .
Referring to the outburst against politicians, he took the media and the urbanites to task!!. "What nonsense is this? Why do you think only politicians are a burden? Can you run the country without politicians or without a captain or PM? Do you want autocracy and dictatorship,''
" Saaaar, We are very sorry to wake you up. Hope all the terrorists go to hell for making loud noises in mumbai and woke you up. For your kind information , our country is better off without politicians like you. With all the crores and crores of money you've made by looting people, I think you can settle down in switzerland or honolulu. Please take your Ogre sons also with you".

See, I can do a sleep walk also
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Deve gowda is one of the worst scum bag politicians india has seen. He and his worthless sons have gobbled up people's money . Petty theives look like saints in front of these guys

Oasis
Am I seeing a light at the end of the tunnel or is it just an Illusion?.
Frustration , anger , depression these are the emotions i am going through from last few days . I have left my country 15 months back but still coudnt leave my love for this country. Coudnt sleep when mumbai was bleeding. I am moving towards atheism but still i said "Please God". When it ended i said "Thank God".
Has the people's anger reached its height? or is it just a short term memory. I find India's media very immature and medicore. Politicians are Elected terrorists. People are dying . No security no infrastructure nothing. Our country is crumbling.
The more i see the societal awareness in this country the more i hate ours. When will we rise above petty issues. When will we stop being racists. According to me indians are the most racist people in the world. They fight for language, religion, Region, Caste and Etc.
I hope, hope is not a mirage in this Anarchic desert.

Again!!
The Terrorists have struck again!!. Bomb blasts in Assam , 60 people killed and 300 people injured.
Whats happening to my country. Is there any solution to this. Innocents are dying. How many people are killed in these kind of blasts this year.
The blame game has started. Shivraj patil condemns blasts, Advani and BJP condemn UPA , Mulayam and Lalu blame BJP for condemning Terrorsists . Why dont these politicians die in bomb blasts?
Now, I am afraid. Really really afraid for my Near ones and dear ones.

Wicked Humans Kill an Innocent Animal
Bozo the clowns that is " Our indian Public" and pea brained scumbags that is forest department officials and police department people pounced on an innocent Leopard and throwed stones on it, Hit it with lathis. The poor animal succumbed to the stress and injuries.
The unsuspecting animal which is a resident of small sanctuary like forest around chamundi hills accidentally strayed into the City limits of Mysore . Humans turned into animals after seeing it and started chasing it. The leopard panicked and went into a bush . People crowded around the bush and started throwing stones. With no way to escape the leopard had to attack some people and in confusion ran towards police head quarters compound instead of Forest. Blood thirsty people didnt leave it alone there also . They chased it into the compound too. And eventually after fighting for many hours it died of stress, excess bleeding and injuries inflicted on by a mob.
The Headless wonders from police department could've controlled the crowds and these Brainless twits from forest deparment could've handled the situation more maturedly instead of chasing it around and panicking it.
I dont have any doubts in my mind about the extinction of wild life in india. All these beautiful beasts will one day be found only in Zoo's and indian jungles ( If they survive the slaughter from Butcher people) will be like old empty dilapitated haunted Houses.
Now looking at this picture brought tears into my eyes. This is the height of cruelty. These people should be subjected to chinese torture . These people should be stoned and hit with lathis till they die.

India Sleeping
" Shocking ! Unbelievable !" I am reading this Headlines everywhere after Delhi Bomb blasts . My take take on this is " Shame on India !! Shame on you laid back attitude "
1,2,3...24, 25... I've lost count of the blasts that have happened in india in last decade. I am sure many more are to come. It is the sickening laid back attitude of the people of india and Governance body that we are in this state.
Indians from all walks of life should start a civil disobediance movement in india . They should stop paying Income Tax, Property Tax , Road Tax, VAT etc. Why should wepay all these to Government ? Just to see our near and dear ones blown to smithereens? . All the politicians should be whipped in public and should be made accounted for whatever they do. They are just busy in their own number game of seats .
Why is our Railway minister silent now. He was crying to lift the SIMI ban. Our Union home minister instead of looking into internal security of the country was singing praises of Afzal guru.
Keeping Aside the Government and system. The attitude of indian society is also very disturbing. We have this "Adjusting" habit in our blood. We get adjusted to any kind of situations. History has shown us that we never fight back against these Pea brained scumbags called Terrorists . As soon as we get a news of blast .
We call all our family , Friends etc. and give a sigh of relief !!. No one is hurt. We are even happy as some one else’s mother , father or brother is killed not ours.
Why not fight back?. We dont have to have Take a Gun and wage a war but we still can make People societies or groups to educate people and have neighbourhood watches.
Act now or suffer later !!

Dushta-avataram
Mr Kamal Hassan you've been in the industry from last 35 years but do you know what is Acting?.
Alas, The heath ledger is deadOr else i would've sent you to him to get some acting lessons. But you can still try to get some acting lessons after watching Daniel Day-Lewis in"There will be Blood". Heath ledger played the role of Joker in dark knight but you're a Joker .
I wonder why you didnt play the Role of Asin and Mallika Sherawat yourself!! In that way no other Clown will beat your mega crap record. You could've also made record by eating 1000 masala dosas at one time or drive a scooter on the pot holed streets of bangalore continously for three days without stoping or else try to be upside down for 3 days continously.
Did you pay anything to the make-up artistes at all or took all the money to yourself ?. Zoombies in " Dawn of the Dead" were better looking than your skin diseased roles.
Have we not seen enough of you in Patti (Grandma) role in "Avaii Shanmughi" or "Chachi 420" ? Which is in turn a disgusting remake of average movie Mrs Doubtfire.
All said and done Dasavataram is nothing but Plain Baloney from Sycophant Kamal Hassan.
Alas, The heath ledger is deadOr else i would've sent you to him to get some acting lessons. But you can still try to get some acting lessons after watching Daniel Day-Lewis in"There will be Blood". Heath ledger played the role of Joker in dark knight but you're a Joker .
I wonder why you didnt play the Role of Asin and Mallika Sherawat yourself!! In that way no other Clown will beat your mega crap record. You could've also made record by eating 1000 masala dosas at one time or drive a scooter on the pot holed streets of bangalore continously for three days without stoping or else try to be upside down for 3 days continously.
Did you pay anything to the make-up artistes at all or took all the money to yourself ?. Zoombies in " Dawn of the Dead" were better looking than your skin diseased roles.

Just Like That
Been a long time away from blogging. Life has been too hectic and monotonous.
It's been 10 months since i came to US . Life has been on the fast track . I get up at 7:00 AM , Get ready reach office by 8:30 , Attend meetings , conference calls then work, work and work . By the time i reach home it will be 7:00 in the evening. Then have dinner , Browse net , check mails and ooohsssh i am totally sloshed and call it a day. Its the same routine everyday or same s**t other day. I have put on lot of weight also!!. Duppu keeps commenting on my bulging beer belly . It has become her favourite punching bag!!.
Cant beleive myself that Just a couple of years back i was a Gym freak and used to preach people on keeping themselves healthy and fit. Hmmn i have changed soo much or rather my tummy :P .
When i look back the last 10 months of my life. I dont remember a single day in terms of significance as there is nothing happening . If the same routine continues for another 30 years ( If at all i make it :P ) and when someday i sit and retrospect on the days i spent . I may be without any good memories at all.
I wonder if i am in some mad race and not sure where the finishing line is or rather what the finishing line is?!!. Recently i was reading a poem on a blog this is written by a teenager in a New York hospital, terminally ill with cancer. Its called Slow Dance . I was too touched by the last few lines of it.
" You'd better slow down. Don't dance so fast. Time is short. The music won't last""Life is not a race. Do take it slower. Hear the musicBefore the song is over"
So the eternal challenge is to slow down take a break or do a retrospection and start over all new again.
Hmmn time for me to slow down.

Fear
Lately i have taken a lot of liking towards watching Horror Movies!!
I just love the Thrill and Goose bumps you get when watching alone with Lights switched off and munching popcorn furiosuly in tension.( I have put on a lot of weight due to this habbit :P )
Alas, there is a flip side to it. Right now i am living alone in a single bedroom house.The ghosts in the movies are always alive in my head!!. My heart starts beating fast Whenever i goto kitchen to drink water in the midnight (A la urmila in bhoot), I am sleeping in my bedroom and suddenly wake up expecting a ghost standing at the edge of bed and warching me!!. A hand coming from below the Cot!!hehe It sounds amusing but beats the shit out of me :P.
I had an interesting Experience after watching this movie called "Exorcism of Emily Rose".The whole movie is very Aesthetically made and most of the movie is in Court. The movie is about A girl called Emily rose who dies Following a prolonged Mystery disease.Movie is actually based on a true story which actually happenned somewhere in the rural England. A priest is accused of Negligient homicide of Emily . A lawyertakes up the case and tries to prove that her death was not due to the negligience from priest side. But as the lawyer gets deep into the case and starts researching into it. She finds out that Emily was really possessed!!.Truly engaging movie with haunting music.
There is a scene in the movie where Lawyer keeps waking up at 3 in the morning and starts hearing weird noises comingfrom somehwhere. She cant understand why she wakes up at 3:00 AM daily. Later While interrogating the Priest in the court Room, The priest tells About How the first time Emily gets possesed. Emily would've been possessed at 3:00 AM as it is called the "Witching Hours" and during this time DEMONS make a mockery of God. Written somewhere in bible.It is only at this time Ghosts are usually very Active!!. This statement hits the Lawyer( Holly Hunter) like a thunderbolt. You should see the Expressions of Holly hunter, Amazing Acting.
After the movie, some friends Came Home and I went out with them for Dinner . By the time i came home i was very tired and i just crashed on the bed. I woke up very thirsty sometime in the night. Went to kitchen drank water and came Back. I just saw What time is it, It was 3:02 Am!!.
I sat bolt upright , All my sleep was gone. Ooh man !! Surely this cant be happening. This is not True!!The rest of the night was Lousy. I couldnt close my eyes. same thing happened next day also.
Time to stop watching horror movies I guess :P. But neverthless the Goose bumps are worth it :)

Tears In Heaven
It was love at first sight!! . I first saw her when she was speaking to my mother. She was epitome of beauty and brains. I just couldn’t take my eyes off her. She was Cinderella of my dreams. She was center of attraction. Everyone was talking to her and congratulating her as she had topped the university in 2nd year engineering. She was very popular in the Locality.
We were new to the locality and her home was next to mine!! . My mom is fast at making friends and everyone in the neighborhood knew us within 1 month of shifting to this new home. It actually helped to my advantage in making friends with ‘S’ (I will mention her name as ‘S’). I still remember the first time when my mom introduced me to ‘S’. The touch of her soft hands when she gave me hand shakes and said “Hi Satish, How do you do” was mesmerizing. We became very good friends.
It was my birthday and I had called her for the party in my home. I was waiting for her very eagerly and when she came I felt like I was in heaven. She came to me and gave me a big Cadbury chocolate bar and pinched my cheek, hugged me and gave a peck on my cheek and said “Happy birthday, dear Satish”!! . I was totally blushing and my body had become numb. I thought time has come to a standstill. I got completely confirmed that she also likes me a lot. Her parents like me a lot, my parents like ‘S’ a lot and we both like each other a lot. But the only hindrance that was coming between us is that I was 8yrs old and she was 20!! .
As the days went by, ‘S’ had become a sort of Idol to me. I used to come home from School, Throw the bag and run straight to her home. She taught me how to play carom board and Chess. I used to get very jealous and angry when she spoke to other guys.
Somehow it was understood that she is my girlfriend!! And days went by happily.
One day I came home from school and was very happy to see ‘S’ in my home chatting with my mother. I ran straight to her and started narrating my school stories. She said Satish I am going to America!! And I said why?!!.
“I have got Scholarship for Higher Education”. At that point I didn’t understand what all these is but I was really heart broken.
That was the last time I ever saw her again in my life. She had once sent a greeting card for me on New Year, Which would sing jingle bells song when opened. Probably its still there somewhere in some old trunk.
Our family got shifted from Hyderabad to Bangalore and we lost touch with the friends over there. Its been almost 20 years since I know anything about her!!.
Yesterday I was speaking to my mother and she told you “remember ‘S’ ”. I said ‘who’s that ‘?. Then she told the girl in Hyderabad. You were very young then. I said yes!! I remember her, how’s she!! And where is she!!.
My mother came to know from somebody that, ‘S’ had died 6 months ago due to leukemia. She was never married. She had died alone and lonely, her family got her body after 2 days.
I was shocked and was filled with grief. I tried to remember her face but only vaguely remembered her sweet loud pitched voice. She was lost somewhere in the pages of my memory.
Why such a sweet nice girl who had a promising future had to be alone and lonely without any friend’s. I am still shocked after listening about her. All I can say is
“MAY YOUR SOUL REST IN PEACE ‘S’ ”
