Sometimes in life you get to watch a masterpiece without knowing anything about it. I dont think I have ever seen a movie like this. One of the best endings ever. Do watch it. A very well made movie. Do not read the Wikipedia article as it reveals the entire plot, including the climax.

While searching for articles related to this movie, I came to know that it won the academy award for the best foreign language movie. One of the best movies I have ever seen.

…says Salman Khan. Ladies and Gentlemen, Salman is awarded with the Discovery of the century award. In this brilliant article, Salman has come up with wonderful statements. My comments in italics.

This guy has beaten Roddick, Nadal and Federer in one single tournament. Unbelievable. Hope he is consistent enough. We might get to see good matches apart from the ones of Federer-Nadal.

Super start for Chelsea. It would be interesting to see how they play against top teams. Someone tell Mourinho to do away with Glen Johnson please. He doesn’t know to defend

And finally, debate has started? Sachin is old, Dravid is negative in approach blah blah? I liked the scenes after Kumble’s century. It was very nice.

I think it would be better if Cricinfo sticks just to the commentary, and stop trying to be funny. Its so refreshing to read BBC’s commentary than that of Cricinfo. Silly guys.

Have you heard about the movie Sringaram? I haven’t

Madhu Ambaat won the best cinematography award for this movie.
Lalgudi Jayaraman has won the best music director award, and Saroj Khan has won the best choreography for the same movie. 3 awards for a Tamil movie is nice.

Congratulations Baradwaj

Dear NN,
My husband works in an IT company. On most of the days he picks me up from my office on the way, or somewhere nearby. The problem is he keeps wearing the ID card tag even after he is out of office. I have told him umpteen no of times to remove the tag, the moment he steps out of office. He just doesn’t seem to listen. I don’t want everyone on road to know what his name is or where he works. Any tips?

Last week I happened to refuel at Shell Petrol pump, opposite Vadapalani Bus stand. I have heard from my friends that it was very professional and good. The moment I entered, the guy asked me to turn off the engine and mobile phone. Someone filled the petrol, and someone else cleaned the windshield. Right next to me there was an Idiot* in Swift It was good until then. Things changed when I gave my credit card for billing. Since I had to check the tyre pressure as well, the attendant asked me to proceed and he said he would bring my credit card there. After checking the tyre pressure, I was wondering why I hadn’t received my credit card. By this time, the idiot in swift rushed out of the petrol pump. He seemed to be in a hurry.
