| 5 Must Reads...Before You Die | |

| Its Football time!! | |
| This is the first football World Cup which I won’t be able to watch live on TV and hence I am awashed with thoughts about it. Waking up midnight to start the match…falling asleep midway …only to wake up hearing “GOOOAAAAAAAAAAAL”…..may be that’s why we love Brazil so much…so many chants of GOAAL per match…kept me and my father awake thru the night...

| A Morning to start..with Neruda at heart | |
| This is one of my Favorites from Pablo Neruda's poems...Thought it would a good way to start the dayI do not love you...I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,in secret, between the shadow and the soul.I love you as the plant that never bl...

| Laaga Yashraj Ka Daag |
| [Originally published on PASSIONFORCINEMA.COM]Even the little droplets of hope that one had left after watching the decidedly bizarre promos of Laaga Chunari Main Daag are mercilessly dashed to the ground. The Yashraj stamp (or rather, stain) is so ostentatious and evident in Pradeep Sarkar"s second film that no amount of Surf Excel- or even Lux, w...

The world and its living room is occupied betting Shilpa Shetty’s chances of winning Big Brother, even though most of us haven’t even seen the program. Not to mention how, now, even the most ignorant fellow-around-the-corner has an opinion about the Abhishek-Ash match. Indeed, we h...
