Saawariya This weekend I finally saw Saawariya. Back in November 2007 I was extremely excited to view this movie. Usually I enjoy Sanjay Leela Bhansali's films. He has a knack for creating interesting grey characters and has a penchant for dark drama and romance...
Mamma Mia! I love musicals. Every Bollywood movie worth its salt is a musical. Whether it is action, comedy, drama or romance, what is a world without music. I often wonder why Hollywood has forgotten musicals making them a nostalgic dream of the past. There is a...
Dane County Fair Who does not love fairs. The carnival rides, carnival foods, the shows. I loved fairs in India. We would have one by the station grounds every year and I would go with my gang of school friends. I have not been to a single fair since I moved to the sta...
Kismat Konnection Aziz Mirza is known for his feel good films. His characters are completely relatable everyday people working their way through life making ends meet. They highlight the common mans struggles and choices. Like Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman and Yes Boss! Kisma...

Re: Re: Super Smash Bros Brawl Mostly a fighting game. I should have used the term 'stages' instead of level. Stages is just the arena you fight in. Each arena is different. There are two modes Group and Solo. In group up to 4 players can battle each other in brawl, you can set up a...
Cheeni Kum Last weekend we rented one of the recent Bollywood movies, Cheeni Kum. The plotline was unlike any other conventional Bollywood romance. Challenging Indian social norms the movie portrays a love story between a 64 year old man and a 34 year old woman. ...
