Student Of The Year is one film having Karan Johar written all over. There is a college with bubbling and refreshing adolescent students clad in clothes of every great brand in existence, drama, love triangle and heavy emotional bonding.

Most of you may have guessed the story from the trailers- there is an university by the name of St. Teresa’s college filled with the creamy layer of India. Two friends, Rohan Nanda (Varand Dhawan) Abhimanyu Singh and (Siddarth Malhotra) enter it. Rohit is the charming rich spoilt brat and Abhimanyu is the middle class boy there on scholarship. Rohan is dating Shanaya (Aliya Bhatt) the prettiest chick on campus. Over a period of time they become friends and the “bromance” ensues. However, the hunger to achieve the student of the year award and them falling in love with the same girl makes things bitter.

ICC T20 2012 - 18th September- SL vs ZIM Match Analysis

Image Courtsey - http://www.iccworldtwenty20.com/

The result of the inaugural match of the T20 World Cup, 2012 between hosts Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe panned out just the way the majority of the cricketing fraternity and fans would have anticipated. It was a clear-cut victory for Sri Lanka, riding on a strong performance with both bat and ball. What they wouldn’t have expected though, was that Sri Lanka would steamroll, flatten and annihilate Zimbabwe to an 82-run loss. It was all one way traffic since the start of the match, apart from a phase of a couple of overs where the Zimbabwean bowlers took 2 wickets in rapid succession.

YOGOs Yogurt At Lokhandwala

A perfect place to hangout in the morning, during college hours, after lunch, on a date and in the night after dinner. Yogo's serves perfect fronzen yogurts. 

We visited its first branch in Lokhandwala, Andheri (w) and asked them to hit us with their best. As expected, they served a blueberry cheesecake loaded with toppings. The cheesecake was delicious, we even asked for a plain strawberry froyo. The deserts were soft, smooth and sweet.

KC College Screams For 'The Rise'

Kiran is one of the most awaited college fest of Mumbai. The students of Kishinchand Chellaram College at Churchgate are all set to redefine the meaning of the words-revolt, rebel and rise, redefining the term 'Revolutionaries'.  This year, Kiran 2012, launches itself on 31st August with the theme  'The Rise'. The events schedule is given below:

Short Film Event. ''Rise; Yesterday and Today"

The event is totally based on the contingent the college gets. Every contingent bears the Freedom fighter/ political leader/ Revolutionary. So according to that person, the contingent has to derive one outstanding quality the person had, and show how is that quality relevant in today's world. For example if a contingent gets their name as Mahatma Gandhi, then they have to make a 3-5 min short film depicting how is Gandhiji's non-violence quality work in today's time?

Ice Age 4 : Continental Drift

Sequels are a common phenomenon with Hollywood film makers. Though fourth part of the Ice Age is a sequel, you will enjoy the film even though if you have not watched the previous flicks. After three top-of-the-ladder and blockbuster parts, this new launch from the same store does manage to keep its fans happy and entertained. The basic plot the movie is a tried-and-tested formula of family relationships, affection, comradeship, deception, and finally an exciting re-union.

The story continues after mammoth Manny and Ellie’s daughter Peaches is all grown up and wants to experience her teenage just like any other youth. Peaches has a crush on Ethan, but Manny doesn’t approve of her relationship.

Just like always, on the parallel line, there runs a caper and jocular, the goofiest character of the trilogy series – Scart (a saber-toothed squirrel).Interestingly, Scrat, unknowingly unleashes a natural acrimony,  which leads to the crackup, of the Pangaea landmass due to which Manny, along with his herd of Diego, Sid and Sid’s granny is separated from Ellie and Peaches.

Cocktail- Fully Fizzled Up

Courtesy- Eros International Media Ltd, Illuminati Films

Over the decades, our film fraternity has revolutionised. The result is that directors are portraying the same conventional themes, in a new way. Cocktail is one such example; A romantic comedy comprising of a love’s triangle.  However, the dark, tardy confusion usually clinged to the love triangles, are only brushed through in this film.

 The film starts by a scene of the flirt, womanizer, Gautam (Saif Ali Khan) flirting with arbitrary women. Then, the gullible, naive, traditional Indian girl, Meera (Diana Penty) is introduced. Lastly comes the reckless, ever so effervescent, party animal Veronica (Deepika Padukone). Veronica and Gautam become “friends with benefits”. The “awesome threesome”, as Deepika says in one of her dialogues, party on beaches, hang out at diners and even start living together. All’s going well until Gautam’s mother decides to give a surprise visit. Only to walk up on her son dancing in a negligee with a slutty make up. Further, Gautam, not wanting to give his mom an early attack by introducing her to the party animal Veronica, conveniently introduces Meera as his prospective wife, to avoid the arranged marriage scenario. What follows is a love triangle complication.

New Stuff--The Comedy Outburst

Celebrating its second anniversary in Mumbai; The Comedy Store has great to offer and it’s the only such theatre and concept in Mumbai which only caters adult comedy. The Comedy Store has been a stage for world class comedians in London and Manchester and it’s a borrowed concept from the UK. A visit to it is a must if you have a funny bone and would like to experience or a fan of standup comedy. At first they make you feel comfortable and nice with their bar and diner, then they make you laugh with one-liners and punches .They would joke on all issues ranging from sex and politics to religion, college and Olympics! Now, as the jokes were all equally hilarious, we judged the comics on other parameters.

The show we went for was titled “New Stuff” and it promised to showcase new jokes and talent. We were served by seven comedians at the price of Rs.150. It all started with the host Neville Shah, he introduced himself as a half Parsi-half Gujju comedian. He made the people roll on the floor laughing and was the best as he was the host. He got off 

(Neville Shah)

the stage, interacted with the audience and humiliated them!. That always works doesn’t it? 
One of the people who constantly got insulted by every comedian was one of our own colleagues and also the editor of all the posts you see on this blog  so I won’t be surprised if any line vanishes in “the interest of making the post better”
( Neville Shah, if you are reading this, he was the IT engineer whom you caught hold of ). Actually, he had already planned to sit on the first row and make himself the target! The comedians were not aware that the persons whom they were cracking jokes would be grading them! Here is a tip for you; If you care a lot of your image and do get offended from highly insulting lines on you/your partner, dare not sit in the front rows!

Bol Bachchan - Keep Your Brains at Home

(Image Courtesy - Ajay Devgn Ffilms)

The human body is gifted with mind; the mind, is gifted with logic and logic, is gifted with reasoning. Rohit Shetty chooses to disapprove all three! Bol Bachchan is a brainless humour at its epitome.

The movie is a remake of the old “Golmaal”. The plot is the usual, one man, two names. Abhishek Bachchan plays Abbas Ali and also his alter ego, Abhishek Bachchan. Yes, thats his name in the film. He does this to escape the wrath of Prithviraj Raghuvanshi (Ajay Devgn) who practically is the leader of the village. 

The plot and the story, like most of Rohit Shetty’s films, are negligible! The humour is outstanding and even the haters of brainless humour will find it difficult to hold their laughter, especially in the first part. The cast includes debutant Krushna Abhishek who has done a commendable work and this film will definitely give a boost to his bollywood career. The music by Himesh Reshamiya and Ajay-Atul is mediocre. The editing and the background soundscore, again, remind you of south movies. Abhishek Bachchan actually does a brilliant job. His “Bharatnatyam-gay” dance in the film is definitely the highlight. Ajay Devgn, being Ajay Devgn, stands out throughout the film. He displays very high energy and charisma. The actions superb and well organised. It’s a typical Rohit Shetty film, with usual humour, flying cars and flying human bodies.

Sappe Aloe Vera Review

(Image Courtesy: Sappe Aloe Vera)

Re-doing a famous dialogue from a Bollywood film, we came up with something that would clearly describe the people who would like to take this drink... "Ye world hai na world, isme do tarah ke log hote hai. Ek joh drink mai healthiness prefer karte hai, dusre jo taste prefer karte hai" (In this world, 2 types of people exist; one who prefer healthiness in their drinks, other who prefer taste.) Sappe’s Aloe Vera drink will appeal more to the former!


The taste is not so bad. It comes in four flavours; Apple, Lime, White-Grape and Peach. From which the lime and the apple flavour particularly are refreshing and tasty! The other flavours might not particularly please your taste buds as such. The juice will appeal to you if you are searching for something new against the usual juices. The taste is slightly minty, sweet and salty together. We highly recommend drinking it chilled.

The Amazing Spiderman--Amazing, Indeed!

The other day I was seeing an advertisement. A man, in a foreign country, having a foreign language craves for chicken. He enters a restaurant named "chi-can" with chicken pictures everywhere and naturally expects some exquisite chicken. He ends up eating a cooked dog. Viewing The Amazing Spiderman, is more or less the same. The name, gives a picture of a hardcore action-thriller super hero movie. It really is a story of a boy who acquires powers and a villain who acquires mutation; portrayed more realistically than we would want a super hero movie to be.

The story is of a teenager college boy trying to find out the truth about his father’s disappearance. In the process, he gets bitten by a radioactive spider and gets some unique powers. He then uses them for the good of mankind. Sounds similar? It is! The villain, this time is a giant lizard. He falsely believes that he can create a world without weakness by turning everyone into giant lizards too, through mutation as it gives more strength. 



The only difference in the story is that everything is attempted to be portrayed a slight more realistically. The USP (Unique Selling Point) of any super hero- action movie is the protagonist’s feverous struggle against the villain. The film lacks that. But where the film doesn’t quite do enough in action, it does more than enough in the screenplay, cinematography and direction. The dialogues didn't match up to the wonderful ones from the earlier parts.

USA -- Under Skirt Activities

USA, is the undisputed reigning monarch of the world. It controls most of the international organizations, some directly, some indirectly. The United States is the epicenter of trade, commerce, finance. It is the epicenter of power! It is also the most dreaded country on earth. Wondering why? Here are three of the several answers.

What exactly happened on 9/11

• 9/11 is considered as an epoch making incident in whole of America. What we know about 9/11 is that Osama Bin Laden and his accomplices hijacked some passenger planes and crashed them into the world trade centre, bringing it down. What we don’t know is that a controversy follows this incident...
• The core of the WTC (World Trade Centre) was hard columns tightly grouped columns of solid steel! The structure was so hard, that the planes couldn’t even

Gangs Of Wasseypur: Low Budget, High Entertainment!

(Image Courtesy: AKFPL Productions)

Gangs Of Wasseypur did not spend much on the promotion. Although word of mouth made the film famous among the public. GOW is not a movie. Its a piece of art! Each and every scene, each and every frame is perfect, with a very fine attention to details. However, where the film wins your heart over with the visual, it fails to do so in the some other aspects. This offbeat film suffers from a low budget.


The story is of a man, Sardar Singh (Manoj Bajpai) who craves for revenge of his father's death from Ramadhir Singh (Tigmanshu Dhulia). The story is displayed parallel to the important events in history, including the independence, nationalisation of firms and then their liberation. Although its not stated anywhere, I highly suspect that the film draws inspiration from a real life story. This time also, we wont reveal anything of the plot as we want you people to relish each and every twist and turn. And also there is just too much of matter crammed into 165 minutes. Which is important as the story of the second part will relate to the first.

The Great ''Quota'' System -- Part 2

(Image Courtesy- www.mutiny.wordpress.com ) 

Please read the Part-1 here.
As one article was not enough to criticize it enough so we had to come up with one more.


India got independence in 1947 and the constitution was formed by 26th November 1949. No, we haven’t forgotten what I am writing about. Our  point is that when the constitution was adopted, the quota for SC\ST\OBC was adopted for a period of five years. After which it was to be reviewed. However, the term conveniently kept being stretched till now; which is 63 years. With all due respect to our  backward classes’ friends, when you were expected to grow enough to handle your own expenses in 5 years, you haven’t been able to do the same in 63 years?

Also, another loop hole in this system is that if your grandparents belonged from backward class, you will get the certificate! Not considering the fact that you very well could have, and may have grown in the following years. Many people we know, owning blackberries and other high-tech cell phones, big cars, et al have authentic “backward classes’’ certificate.

Tedhi-Medhi Kahani

(Courtesy- Kunal Kohli Productions)

Teri Meri kahaani gives us a very interesting star cast with Shahid kapoor and Priyanka Chopra. Alas! It does nothing to mitigate this disaster. Or shall we say, disasters? The story is basically of similar love stories spanned over three generations. 


After the classic “love story” start and classic “love story” dialogue we see a 1960’s set. Govind(Shahid Kapoor) a wannabe musician in pursuit of stardom is travelling to Mumbai and conveniently bumps into a film star Rukhsar (Priyanka Chopra). Then a love story full of complications, songs and drama  starts. The same is repeated in the 2012 and 1910 era. 


One of the disturbing things about the movie is that there is no narration or thread what so ever to tie these three stories together. We just go from 1960 to 2012 to 1910 without any reasonable explanation! Apologies as we am not revealing much of the plot because there is hardly any. We don’t want to reveal the little twists because they might make the movie watchable for you, and we don’t want to run it more!

The Great ''Quota'' System

Image Courtesy- www.knowcrazy.com

One of the most harrowing phase of our lives, the college admission process, is finally over for most of us. I think we all unanimously agree that the most annoying element in this process was the quota system. Yes, I know that there are people who got in solely on the bases of quota, which saved them from a very grave crisis.

As we all know, reservation is on the bases of religion, domicile, castes and also for freedom fighters’ descendants. It’s amply evident that today, if you don’t belong to a religion, cast or domicile having a quota, you will not be able to pursue your dream career from your dream college. Unless, you are a scholar who gets sky high marks, which, most of us aren't.

A Sweet "Sawaari"

Courtesy- Vinod Chopra films

Vidhu Vinod Chopra didn’t provide us with too exciting trailers. One could figure that the purpose of the trailers was not to entertain but to set the plot of the film. And he succeeds. 

The films starts by introducing us the simpleton, sweeter than honey, Rustom Deboo (Sharman Joshi) and his quintessential son Kayoze Deboo (Ritvik Sahore). Rustom is a Gandhian even in this 'ghor' kalyug, thus is distinct from others.

Rustom’s father, Boman Irani, a grumpy, embittered grandfather with an unkept beard and an old man’s slouch is introduced. Kayoze, plays outstanding cricket and is believed to be destined for the Indian team. But he needs to pay exorbitantly high fees to get in a training camp conducted in lords stadium, london.

#Dhoble Tries To Do A "Shahenshah"

"Andheri raaton mein sunsaan rahon par 
Har zulm mitaane ko ek masiha nikalta hai jise log shahenshah kehate hain"


No, we aren't quoting "Shahenshah", though the above quotes are by him. This time we are quoting someone who is doing something similar, Vasant Dhoble, who has become infamous in the whole of Mumbai as a destroyer of night life. He lurks around in the dark, with a hockey stick in hand and the burdening weight of the reckless party animals on his shoulders. 

Like all the super heroes, he has some super powers of his own. He senses the trouble that is going to be created because of calamitous names like Madness, Shiro Lounge, Masala Curry. Dhoble also has a power known as ‘evacuator’! When he enters a night club, the debilitated and petrified malevolent creatures give out a cry “bhaagoo, Dhoble aaya” (Run, Dhoble’s here) and scatter around searching for cover. Some fortunate ones flee, leaving all their belongings behind and others succumb to his justice!

Shanghai: Another Political Thriller

A hard hitting Indian political thriller; which is perfectly made. The screenplay and production down to the characterization, everything is impeccable! Shanghai is an offbeat movie, beyond entertatainment.

The story is set in an Indian city of Bharat Nagar, which is riddled with riots and politics. A socialite and a teacher, Ahmedi (Prosenjit Chatterjee), is protesting against the development plan of a MNC in coalition with the government; which will cause many poor people to lose their lands. He faces harsh reactions from some of the villagers who are under the spell of the government. He is ultimately run down by a truck in a conspicuous accident. 

Next Is What? Samsung Galaxy SIII

Samsung is making a revolution and is setting a mark on screen sizes.The Galaxy Note, which was just an inch away from being a tablet has been viral in India.

HIM, She Couldn't Beat..

The girl boarded the crowded bus ,

She walked, Head down, amongst the fuss ,

She sat on the "ladies" seat, lowered her sight ,

But her chin was up, posture upright
  

For having the 'Reserved' seat so lucky she felt ,

Just then her keys dropped, she knelt ,

On getting up, she saw a man staring at her,

But she kept quite, as she'll have to, forever
 

She kept quite, didn't speak ,

Because HIM, she couldn't beat.
 

She alighted from the bus, went into the house,

There she saw her god, her boss, her spouse ,

She lowered her sight again, started with the dusting ,

Just then the cloth hit the vase, dropping it, shattering!!
 

She froze. Her muscles didn't even flex,

Because she knew what was next ,

Inside she was shaking, shivering, shattering ,

Then It started, the slapping, beating, violating 

She was covered in blood, but she didn't speak ,

Cause HIM, she couldn't beat.

I Am Not Alone!

I see you in the dark night, the lonely alley,

I see you walking down the street,

I see you turn, and look at me,

I see you smile, so playfull, sweet

I see you run, I see you hide,

I see you laughing, giggling playfully!

I then see you walking by my side,

I see your hand in mine, to leave, just not ready

So when I'm walking down the street,

And no ones there with me,

I am not alone,

I am not alone,

Buckets And Tuckets-- A Disaster!

Buckets: Stuffed vegetables/chicken and rice in buckets of various sizes.

Tuckets: Rolled sandwiches just like the ones you would get in Subway.

An attractive name, a new concept but the fellows behind the counter could not harness it well. We generally drop a mail a few hours before we go for the review, but this time we thought we would surprise them but in turn got surprised!  We asked for Harayalli Paneer and walked out with the tubs wanting to find something new.

The person at the counter had convinced us by saying that it would contain a layer of rice, gravy and paneer, but we could find only rice in there, two pieces of Paneer (yes, we did count) and no gravy. Even the rice was horrible and stale, Airlines do serve better rice than the one in the bucket.  We went   back and confronted him, he gave around 30ml of ‘gravy’ (No, this one is an approximation) which looked more like ‘Panni’ of ‘Panni Puri’. We managed somehow . For Rs.99+taxes I better have a McVeggie happy meal! 

If you have been there ,drop in your comments below and if have not;  go ahead, try it, we dare you!

My Game, My Victory.

When the batsmen enter the ground,

Its our heart beats which pound,

They are gonna start the mission,

But its us who make the roaring sound

When holding the bat, the batsman takes his stance,

When the first ball, the baller plans,

In our hearts, its us balling, its us batting,

Its our heart, which is pounding.

They strategise, its they who start,

The game's on the field, but the action's in our heart.

When the ball leaps out of the ballers hand,

The heart leaps out of our chest, in the stands,

When with the first shot, the ball goes cracking,

We are the ones nervous, the ones who are perspiring!

When the ball travels through the air towards the fielder,

The fielder brings his hands together, to take the catch,

Its us whose mouth keeps opening far and wider,

And then closes with a smile once the ball rests in his hands..

Duke's Raspberry And Ice Cream Soda Review

Dukes Raspberry:

Let us start by discribing a scenario for you to imagine. Imagine yourself in an arid desert. With unbearable heat, nothing to drink, you are completely dehydrated, and just then you see a shining bottle of Dukes Lemonade Raspberry in front of you. Trust us, you'll be better off without anything in the said situation. Okay, I exaggerated. But that thing tastes like a cough syrup! Once you drink it, Although we would not be mentioning it here, you'll also be able to name the brand too! We would rate it 1 out of 5.


Dukes Ice Cream Soda:

Dukes ice cream flavour soda comes with a striking packing which will never fail to attract your eyes at the "Wednesday" bazaar. This is something new. Not absolutely tasty or breathtaking, but decent enough. The ice cream flavour per se is a difficult thing to achieve, and Dukes have explored it in a very good way according to me. I would rate it at 2 and a half out of 5. If look at the images, it is noticeable that the Ice Cream Soda Flavour has been finished by us but the Raspberry has been left for the future games of "Truth And Dare". Have you tested them yet? Speculate us with comments below! 

Ishaqzaade: "Ishq" Zyaada Story Kaam

(Courtesy: Yash Raj Films)

Personally, I am a big fan of "gunda" (hooligan/goons) movies, and if the main leads die in the end, I'll be in love with it! Although Ishaqzaade didn't exactly make me fall in love with it, as it managed to make other teenagers. 

Ishaqzaade is a simple story amongst the backdrop of trigger-happy goons (read politicians) with strong – headed and dogmatic people of the North going all out to kill their own kith and kin. It takes us to a rural place in UP, which, like many other places in India, is triggered with politics.


The protagonist, Parma (Arjun Kapoor), is a hot headed, ruthless quintessential grandchild of a local corporator standing for elections from the Chaudhari's (Hindu side) who, in one scene, burns of the entire oil shop of a man just because he asked him to flee from the Qureshi's (the Muslim party). And Zoya (Parineeti Chopra) is a free spirited, wild (non cheesy way!) beautiful tomboy who once wants to run for the elections like her father and become a mla. She's from the family of Qureshis, and as you may have guessed, the two sides are at logger heads with one another. Oh, and by the way, every character in the two families is trigger happy, although the director seems to have refrained from a lot of bloody, gory scenes, thankfully! The characterization is really commendable.

India Pet-Trolled With Hike At Rs.7.50

It happens with people on Twitter in India; whenever they see a figure trending, they think it’s another scam’s cover blowing up. But this time "Rs.7.50" trending was not a scam but a hike announced by the oil companies. The hike was a nationwide narration and this step had to be taken due to the depreciation of the Indian Rupee in the world markets and the increase in VAT for fuel this financial year. The rupee on Monday fell to Rs. 55 to the United States Dollar against Rs. 46 last year. This subjected to a loss of Rs. 72,000 crore on account of rupee depreciation this year for the oil companies.

If the stats are correct, the oil companies, which had in the fiscal ending March 31, 2012 lost Rs. 4,860 crore on petrol sales, are now losing Rs. 6.28 a litre, making petrol valuable for Mumbaikars at Rs. 78.14 per litre. In Kolkata, the increase will be Rs. 7.85 per litre. Delhities would now have to pay Rs.73.14 a litre and Chennai would have to give out Rs.77.05 per litre. Be ready to shell out an extra buck or two if you prefer treat your vehicle with premium refined oil.
