7 reasons, why a Tarantino movie will fail in India

It doesn’t have a mindless dancing sequence, where the hero and heroine (viewers too) take a break from the story and let the dance director show case his talent.
It has long conversations where characters are straight faced, how can we stand that?
It actually has a story which is not run of the mill.
In the end everyone can die too. It is preposterous for us (We are Ramanand Sagar fans)
Hero doesn’t always win. Unlike Chennai Express
We cannot stand blood and gore. We like dishum dishum .
We don’t like back and forth sub-plots in our movies. Story can go back only if there is “Pichla/Punar Janam”.

Deja vu

Mr. Rama Reddy is a man of habits and punctuality. He is the village head or commonly referred as the Sarpanch of his village named Pulluru. His village is one of the hundred villages surrounding the town, YS Gate, which is again 15 KM away from Chittoor. Mr. Rama Reddy is about 6 feet in height, stout, and no extra flab. Years of working in field helps later in the age. His sun brunt dark skin is the testimony for that. He has very prominent wrinkles on his forehead. May be, he thinks too much. Like all mornings, Mr. Reddy again woke up today at sharp 6 AM. With his years of discipline and will power, he no longer needs an alarm to wake him up. His eyes would open exactly at 6 AM. This morning was no different. He unlocked his gate first, took a round of his small garden in the courtyard. Filled the water buckets and kept them in front of cattle. This took exactly 15 minutes. At 6.15 AM sharp, he was in his bathroom. Singing religious hymns, he poured two buc

9 things every-body assumes about Kashmiris/kashmir

1 .We all want to be terrorists. Some of us work too. 2. We have a compulsory arms training course in P.O.K . 3. Wearing a pharain means that we are hiding a Kalashinkov inside. Actually,it freezes in winter. 4. We never bathe. We too have electricity. 5. All Kashmiris daily eat wazwan at their homes. Some of us are vegetarians too . 6. Its snows in every part of J&K. It’s not Ice-land for God’s sake. 7. We eat apples “n” times a day. No, we sell them instead 8. We speak only Urdu. We have the highest English literacy rate in the country 9. We speak hindi like Afghans do in Bollywood movies.

Outbursts of a Bookaholic

In my day dreams in which I imagine myself in a number of scenarios (Including the one in bed with Katrina), the one which is feel is achievable (In real life) is to write a book review. I am often surprised to find people around me who don’t read much and whenever some guy wants to take up a new book I am usually the guy who they ask for a few comments first. But my reading is not structured, its pretty eclectic, so people often frown when they find out that I have not read this famous blah blah author. I often think(read daydream) how good it would be if I quit my job and just make my living writing reviews, because I read on an average 3 to 4 books per week. But who has the energy to bring that change, recently a bug of short stories has made home in my wobbled brain, and talking about brains; It was only yesterday when my sister called me up and said that she saw a brain of an addled person in her lab. I asked how you differentiate by seeing a person’s brain whether
