    Why should one read Dan Brown? – Part II

      Like I promised in my previous post that I will be back with the remaining books of Dan Brown… To everyone who hadnt read the first piece itself, you will find it here. Anyways, I will definitely give a quick review of what I said in that article. Dan Brown books can be broadly classified into two categories. The first category is the more conversial kind; usually aiming at defaming some very strong beliefs of the world regarding religion. These include Angels and Demons, The DaVinci Code and The Lost Symbol. However, I have already mentioned in detail about the three books and this category, so not being repetitive,…

    Safe Haven : Movie Review

      Okay, firstly let me make this really clear – I never, NEVER prophesize to see a movie prior to reading the book. Ofcourse, if you have read the book, the movie just gets lamentable; it picks out the enigma and you are just there to point to the differences and the missing scenes; worst of all, you are stuck for a good 2 hours or so, just to see how the director’s interpretation is so different from your own inference. Still, the story that you read is way better than seeing it. In a movie, you are already presented with actor and actresses potraying different characters that seem to…

    Why should one read Dan Brown??- Part I

    This is not what you think… I am not at all trying to sell or endorse Dan Brown. Rather, if you have read my ‘About Me’, you know that I am a huge FAN of Dan Brown. Rather, I am ardent believer of his. Therefore, this article is never about Why Dan Brown? But it is why I love his work!! First things first, if you don’t know, which aint possible though, Dan Brown is the author of the very widely known, controversy struck and an international bestselling book – The DaVinci Code. *Applause*. Anyways, Dan Brown is the author of the male protagonist – Robert Langdon series – Angels…

    29 states?

        I don’t know if you heard the new joke on facebook but its “If Congress rules over for another 5 years, even Google will not be able to search India”… I know that I myself called this as a joke, but like said by someone great “One’s tragedy becomes other’s comedy”… just in this case, the joke is also on the citizens of India and its also us that we be ignorant and laugh. But if I may take a moment and urge every Indian citizen to be a little more responsible and give the state of our country, a serious thought. I have taken the 29 states…

    Emraan Hashmi… Aww, the sweety!!

    Seeing Emraan Hashmi on Comedy Nights with Kapil, I just realized that ‘Oh my God! Isnt Emraan just a little ice-cream cone with extra chocolate chips’ as in ‘totally yumms!’. Trust me, he is! I mean, okie fine, he’s done mostly exposing movies which have been totally controversial, but that doesn’t make him any less of a rockstar. Rather, at this very point, Kapil invites a girl from audience, Pratibha, to dance with Emraan and he’s looking so – just so – muah! And I cant help but agree that I am jealous; mind you, I am not jealous often and if I am jealous, I would really want this!…

    ‘Knowledge’ is food to soul

    Some of you might have noticed (or would have known) that I read; as in read novels. To be honest, yes I am very much pro-reading and I do enjoying reading. All of it, makes me a real fan of reading. Nonetheless, the lazy I am, trust me I hardly spend time reading. I would waste time watching a movie over and over again but taking out time to read, phew! That’s a hard one! Well, part of me enjoys reading so much that it is very difficult to let down a book once it has me interested. Unfortunately, that part is very small. And so only a very small…

    Movie Review : Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana

      You know, I have never really understood my friends when they spend hours watching a south-Indian movie. I don’t really ever get why would anyone want to see those movies in the first place!! No I am not promoting Hindi Cinema, I myself watch a lot of English movies and I also understand people watching Korean movies, but never South-Indian. Part of my this opinion is from the movies that keep running and rerunning throughout and forever on our Hindi movie channels like Star Gold and Set Max. I mean, oh for the love of God, those movies lack story!! There is always a goofy character… there is always…
