DesiDabba - Boss, Thoda Sa Roomani Ho Jaye

For once the fat host is right. Today is Rakhi ke honewalle pati ke liya dua mangne ka din hai. #rakhisawant

And it can’t get more fake than this. This is like watching silicon work its magic in real life. #rakhisawant

How come the guju guy is putting haldi and not fem fem se gori gori cream? And where the fuck are his sardar brothers friends?!#rakhisawant

Guju guys sister is cute. But looks so zonked out? Took couple of shots to bare the pain of watching her brother commit marital suicide?#rs

Overdose of overacting we are being fed by these sidey television stars. Thank god for Fatafat digestive golies. #rakhisawant

So how long will this engagement tamasha last? I give it 3 months max. Then we will have sawant crying horse how she was duped by channel.

But I guess requires talent no to make normal folks aka the boyz’s family to over act? #rakhisawant

Unwanted 72 should be titled No 1 ad on the Unwated Tele Ads List. Cheap shit. #fail

Eyebrow threading and hair straightening.

Must say the new Kangana Ranaut look in the forthcoming film Raaz – The Mystery Continues (aka. Raaz 2) is much welcomed. I mean I agree the previous (extreme) perm locks had some hatke factor attached to it. But then assaulting our fashion senses with it to the very maximum is also not right no?

Seriously the year only seems to get crappier. Well at least in the matter of me and my pick of favorite Indian celebrities. First it was Barkha Dutt, then it was Rakhi Sawant and now to make a certain nightmare a reality, it is ex-IPS officer Mrs. Kiran Bedi.

Now in order to make you understand the gravity of the situation, I have to dig a little in my past. When I was a kid (okay…stop grinning right now), so yeah as I was saying…when I was kid I was hugely inspired by a tele-series on Doordarshan titled “Udaan”. For those sleeping during this phase – Udaan, was one of the most popular serials on DD in the 1990s. Written and directed by Kavita Choudhary, who also happened to play the lead role of ‘Kalyani Singh’. The story, a typical Bollywood pot-boiler, struggle of a young woman aspiring to be an IPS officer. After several setbacks, Kalyani not only joins the IPS but with her sheer determination and some really ass kicking fight scenes, is given the post of an ASP.

Let’s cut the bullshit here: Singh is Kinng is complete waste of human mindspace. Nothing new though, most Bollywood commercial films are in the same league and yet I am cent percent certain that this Kinng is going to rule the Box office for the next few weeks or perhaps months (Heyy Baby and Welcome are perfect examples).

The deal is, we seem to have a thing for bad movies… not really bad ones, like Fool and Final and that other horrendous Riteish Deshmukh one (Kya Kool Hain Hum was it?), but somehow, our spam filter seems to hit a blind spot when it comes to a bad ones. Let me explain. We’re at a stage in our viewing pattern where the bigger and more grandiose a movie seems, the more viewable we automatically think it is. That’s mostly why we loved ‘seeing’ Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham. Forget the fact that it was a horrible movie as storyline and acting go. There was bling, and we were dazzled.

Not too long ago, I had the opportunity to meet up with Onir, director of My Brother Nilkhil at a coffee shop in Versova. Onir, (who goes only by his first name), arrived a little late and wanted to wrap things up in fast. So without much ado, I went right ahead and asked the first question.

Please tell us something about your creative background?

I always wanted to make films, the only thing I can remember wanting to do is make films. When I joined college I took up literature parallel with film studies. Literature I think is very closely related to films and in India you don’t start with film studies after school, you can only after graduation. And then I got my scholarship for Training in Film Making for which I went to Berlin.
