Movie Mania !!

Blogging after quite a long time. May be because something unusual happened after a long time. And all of this because of our great Bollywood..!! Three of my last six meals were popcorn and coke!! I saw four movies in the last two days.

After postponing it for long, I finally got a chance to see the much hyped movie 'Fashion', which reiterates what many of us forget while pursuing our dreams. The end of wisdom is to dream high enough to lose the dream in the seeking of it. All of us at some point or the other miss to enjoy the success we had dreamt of for years and lose our personality which helped us taste success.After achieving what the protagonist had always dreamt of, she feels somewhere there's a void. With full confidence, she had started her journey to success, made very good friends en route, tasted the success which she was chasing but somehow got trapped in it. She was unable to find her true self, her character was lost in the crowd of people. She realizes that one cannot be happy in spite of all the money and material comforts till one is at peace with one self.

Dasvidaniya was a very simple, sensitive movie which does not boast of good star cast, exotic locales etc but it definitely has awesome performances, soothing music and very apt lyrics. It makes you think how simple a person can be and how all of us are too busy with our daily chores to enjoy and appreciate the beauty of life. There's a scene where Vinay stands in his balcony and says

" I had bought this house because the view from here is very scenic and soothing. But since the first day, I have only come in this balcony to dry my towel and the only thing I could see from here were the stains of my towel."

In this race of time and money, all of us miss the small pleasures of life for which we had started working.


A R Rehman remains the 'Yuvvraaj' of music world. His music is just awesome in that movie. Though the movie did not have anything worth watching except locales, it was a treat for the ears!! And the only thing which one says after the movie ends is "Rehman, Tu hi to humara dost hai..!!"


And the worst of the lot was Dostana. For the directors and producers we just have these words "Inka ka Ladla Bigad Gaya!!"
