"Aaja Aaja dil Nichode..
Raat ki Matki tode
koi good luck nikale..
aaj ghulak to fode"
Can a song lyrics get stupider than that?
Yes it can,when it comes to Bollywood! Somehow I wonder what would have happened to my soul had I been a hardcore Bollywood fan.
Meanwhile,I'll be leaving for Delhi in 6 hours.Its early yes,but I have some shopping to do.
"The unreal is more powerful than the real, because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last.Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on."

Movies Update
I've been watching a great mix of movies these days.With the advent of world movies on my TV, my sister's external HDD which has app.300 movies...and my own database of critically acclaimed movies, I've not missed any oppurtunity of
putting them to use and escaping my monotonous world .

Its 12 midnight. You are world weary.You decide to see a movie.You're loving it.The whole movie centres on the plot.Every scene of the movie builds up on the climax.but at the end of it...you're not able to understand what happened.and Then you realise that probably you didnt understand the whole movie.
Thats exactly what happened with me and Donnie Darko.But finally I was able to make sense of the climax fully(after thinking over the movie for like 10 mins!)...Its great in this respect! When was the last time you sat down with a pen and paper to undertstand a movie?
The ending is a bit sad and touchy. Jake Gyllenhaal was fabulous and the Soundtrack totally psychedelic.
A must watch for everyone..Especially those interested in psychology and philosophy of time travel.
Movie ratings:
Donnie Darko: 9.5/10
Amelie :9/10
(a beautiful French movie which has deservedly risen to imdb #44)
My Little Bride: 7/10
( a korean movie...In which a senior college student marries a 1st yearite! liked it because the beautiful relationship b/w them and the eastern culture )
The Other Boleyn Girl: 5/10
Scent of a Woman : 6/10
Priceless : 6/10 (another French movie)
