Ghajini-The Game, Its your turn now

Its time for you to take revenge for your girlfriend. Soon you gonna get a chance to step in shoes of Mr. Sanjay Singhania, get ur body tatooed with what where you feel like, smear your walls with violent graffti.

You will be forced to loose your memory and experience what Sanjay went through in the movie "Ghajini".

For first time in india, Entertainment major Eros International in collaboration with Hyderabad based game development company FXLabs Studio gonna launch a 3D PC Game based on Ghajini. The game would be titled as "Ghajini - The Game", a third person action game, where you can recreate the movie locations and scenes in the #D world.



Players will experience the challenges and trails faced by protagonist Sanjay, played by Aamir Khan. The actor has lent his voice and has also enacted certain moves to bring authenticity to the game’s action sequences.

This is gonna be a big big experience through the game to all the die hard fans of Ghanjini globally.

I guess the credit goes to Hollywood where movie based games are common. The moment the movie is hit, there is a game available in the market for the movie fans to experience the same scenses/locations and play with all the gadgets, cars, weapons used in the actual movie. Thanks to Hollywood for making Bollywood to open yet another entertainment gate for movie buffs/fans.

Lets wait and watch how well does this first 3D Game of Ghajini do in the india's entertainment market.

Wake Up Step Up INDIA

While surfing the net, i got this article, thought of posting the same in my blog.... Hidden Truth About Our System.....here it goes....

All the children who take up studies write the eassay "IF I WERE THE PM OF INDIA",they embedd some of their best ideas to see our country really rising high and touching glory in the skies,But the truth is all of them don't know one thing that they can never be PM of india under the current system.

To be PM of india earliest thing you could do is to join youth wing of political parties say by the age of 18,it will take atleast 5 years for you to earn respect and fame so that you be president of that wing and come in the eyes of mainstream political party.That makes your age 23.

And if you are lucky enough to be in mainstream politics by 23 which is real surprise than you will have to suffer atleast 10 years in building a image of your own in your area or constituency you ought to stand from as "MP" or even "MLA".Means you are 33 by the time you are a "MP" or a "MLA".And it is certain you will never be lucky enough to be a cabinet minister the very first time you win election in india.So your election for first time in our system barely limits you to a sight seeker who can do nothing on his own.

At end of your first term as "MP" you be 38.Now for most of indians democracy means to switch parties coming into power every 5 years,This time congress means by itself next time it will be BJP,I can say that with surity for punjab ,no two consecutive govt in our history have been same parties.

Means you loose 5 more years that makes your age 43.

And if you are still lucky enough to win next election you come to power second time when you are 43,and if you do are allotted a cabinet berth (just imagine) and you tend to bring reforms you are suppressed by your PM or CM or coalition govt,thats the case with Punjab's CM MANPREET SINGH BADAL or INDIA's P CHIDAMBARAM or KAMAL NATH.So your main reformist ideas will remain as a dream to be relinquished some time in future.And by the time you end your second term you are 48.

Same rule of switching governments makes your age 53.Onto your third term if you be the luckiest person on earth to be INDIA's PM you will bemarred by coalition governments ,opposition parties if you try to bring in a change ,your own party will back off its support so that someone else they favour gains fame,

or you will be assasinated or maybe your government would fail before its term of 5 years.

Be optimist and hope you survive those 5 years like a hanging man ,you will be disposed off as the party president and some one new tradidtional will come and take your place for the future.

So don't dream to be PM of india but dream to change the system,

Make our system a two party with no regional parties presidential form of government so that every indian who dreams to be president of india then could really be the president of india and apply his power and thoughts.

Say bye bye to coalition governments and regional parties at the centre.

Make amendment for the longest time you can serve in parliament

make it 10 years.No one should remain elected in parliament more then 10 years.

Bring in young to the power ,we have 75% of our country under 50 and don't have any PM under 50 thats stupid.

WAKE UP STEP UP INDIA

Short Term Memory Loss

Ghajini ..... A short term memory loss..... :(

Inspired by Christopher Nolan's Memento, Aamir Khan plays Sanjay Singhania, a hot-shot industrialist who turns into an obsessed killing machine dedicated to tracking down his girlfriend's killer. Having been hit on the head with an iron rod, he suffers from short-term memory loss and can't remember anything for longer than 15 minutes; as a result he must tattoo his body with instructions that will lead him to his prey.


Oh no.... while i was writing the movie Ghajini's Review... i suffered a short term memory loss..... will get back soon with the review... stay tuned.

Last Week of the Year... 2008

its the last week of the year 2008 and first day of this last week, concidentally its Christmas. exactly on the 7th day of this last week when clock turns 00:00 in the midnight, we all will be welcoming yet another new year of 2000 millennium and its gonna be the 9th year of this millennium.... 2009.

its time to gear up and start thinking and the first thing that comes to my mind (may in every person's mind) is "New Year RESOLUTIONS".

this is one of the wierd things that comes forth in same time during the last week of the year which is gonna get into the history book(s) and every one does make some, some go by it, some can't, some others go by it more or less. I don't know to which category I belong to (time will answer this.... in 2009) but I always try to make reasonable ones, rather easy achievable ones, some may address it weak, but I always want to be optimistic and make choices based on reasoning, not on emotions.

so let's see what all I have for the coming new year. Let me list them down.

1) blog once a week (should be easy... may be not)

2) work on my dream to make it true (very very tough but should be achievable)

3) take my family off bangalore once in three months (tough, again)

4) start working out more regularly...(why I always fail to be regular :( )

5) plan and adhere to my career growth ( I can do it)

6) (anything else.... may be more.....)

all this looks challenging so as to fulfill each of them but if there isn't any challenge in a person's life its damn boring to live. Instead of going by the rule book ... "Resolutions are made to be broken...." i would prefer to start taking up each of these one by one rather as an when they come in front of me in the year 2009 and step foward to achieve them instead of cribbing at the end of the day.

hmm, all the best to me and expecting all my friends and family members wishing me the same.

Rab ne Bana di Jodi

Rab ne bana di jodi.... "There is extraordinary love story in every ordinary jodi"... thats the punch line of this movie. 

What would attract audiance to a movie? 

-- The Story/Script

-- The Casting/ their acting skills.

-- hot item songs

-- the sets/locations used in the movie.

-- etc

but for this movie trust me... none of these were applicable... what attracted was .... "SRK and Adi ek saath hain, kuchh to hoga, dekh to lo ek baar"

SRK shifting between an ordinary character "Surinder" to extraordinary character "Raj" who complains, log itne tight kapde kaise pehen lete hai... bahut daar hota hai..... what the hell was that btw. SRK getting married in an ordinary way and trying to impress/express his love to his wife in yet another so called extraordinary style. SRK had all the fucking charm that a local amirtsari lad would had to impress the girl.... "kabhi alvida na kahena... phir milege chalte chalte....". Oh yes how can i forget "haddipa"... this was the first word said by him while dancing or practising the dance. Don't forget to catchup the stupid role played by our Dasvidaniya hero "Vinay Pathak" who is capable of running the entire movie alone and here.... Sirji.... Pape... I love you.

On the other hand ... the lead heroine... "Anushka"... characterising the yet another ordinary girl who is looking for an extraordinary lovemate. No charm, no appeal... forget the sex appeal thats too far, who wants to participate in a "dancing jodi" competion... which is the main backdrop of the movie. The dance contest showcases couples of all races, colours, backgrounds and sexual preferences. 

Taani (Anushka) wants to take part for the show, but she is not able to due to her husband's lack of fashion statement. Later on when Surinder finds out about his wife's wish to participate in the reality dance show, he undergoes a major change. Taani keeps falling in love with her changed husband..... well this the extraordinary love story in every ordinary jodi.

But yes... good thing is... the music is good for a must listen song.... haule haule..... and another song where Kajol/ Bipasha/ Lara/ Preity/ Rani appear on screen for a minute  or so each, and SRK mimics Raj Kapoor/ Devanand/ Shammi Kapoor/ Rajesh Khanna/ Rishi Kapoor... to the fine tunes coupled with pathetic lyrics: um Hain Rahi Pyaar Ke, Fir Milenge Chalte Chalte, rating the movie as 5/10.

Basics in the budget, no big ticket items

"As the slowdown tightens its grip, household budgets are getting stretched and discretionary. People are taking harsh steps towards themselves" ---- Recession Remix


-- Savings are being made wherever possible, and trying not to take any risks.
-- Haven't bought toys for kids for the past two months.
-- Wanted to buy a new washing machine, guess it has to wait.
-- Cancelled all holiday plans, Xmas/new year spending will be in check
-- have to stop the sips of the mutual funds.
-- slowly IT sector is getting hit, resulting in job/salary cuts
-- Save power
-- Cut fuel costs
-- Simple living

these are among the top few actions people are taking up due to the black clouds circling around them.

this is what one of friend said, who currently works for one of the leading private bank in north india. employees are being asked to leave as their rating is 5/below 5 and aren't generating revenues for the bank.

the heat will go down and the upward trend will begin very soon. india will be able to recover from recession by the end of next year. india will not be hit much, because of the planetary positions and so is the case wih other asian countries. however there will be 2.5 lakh jobs cut in luxury goods, exports, steel and IT industry in the next couple of months, along with a 40-50% decrease in the salary and perks of employees. the recession in india is a side effect of western counteries. an astrological explanation is the current placement of saturn, which is responsible for stability of weath, in simha rashi (leo), which is also his father's house. a related reason would be the placing of the wealth planet, jupiter, in the neechha position, causing the economic crisis. --- said by yet another leading astrologer.

Make a feel the difference

Rule 5: Don't dare to follow the traffic rules
Rule 4: Cut thru the traffic like a knife cuts thru an apple
Rule 3: I am the King/Queen
Rule 2: Honk like a moron
Rule 1: Drive like deaf n dumb


trust me if you follow these rules you will be able to beat the traffic at your own cost
(damn..... the traffic is really killing us in all aspects - health, time n most importantly money)

What a Fabulous Life...!!!

after watching today's episode of MTV Roadies 6.0 Audition, my eyes went "all wide open". those 10 minutes were an eye opener, the life of a person whose earning aren't just in few thousands or lacs but whopping crores and not just 1 or 2 or 3.... crores but hundred crores.

in those 10 minutes mtv showed earnings in other words the fabulous life of the three most "the cricketers" of team india. yes i am talking about "the gr8 master blaster Sachin Tendulkar", "the hot cricketer Yuvraj Singh" and "the youth icon of india MS Dhoni".

those 10 minutes are divided into following:
1. a little background of the person
2. professional/personal life
3. the most important "earning" and
4. the "priced" possessions

just imagine, one morning you get up and check your bank balance... how would you feel if the numbers looked like "X0000000" where X = few hundreds something like 99, 110, 200 etc........... i am sure you would take a deep breath and bet with me, you won't be able to move off your eyes from those numbers flashing in bank account - the available "credit balance".

All these three men earn something like 2.5 lacs per ODI match and 3.6 lacs per Test match and trust me this is not the end.... the fabulous life starts after playing few games of cricket..... the earning from the ads, which leads to some priced possessions of their life. starting from a watch costing to 15 lacs to a car worth 99 lacs.... rolex watches, ferrari, poach, harley davidson, haybusa bike etc, you name it they have it.

As expected Sachin tops the list with hightest earning more than 200 crores annually, then comes MS Dhoni with 110 crores and finally Yuvraj Singh with 90 crores.

........ What a Fabulous Life...!!! just imagine the life of people like "the ambanis, the tatas, the mittals......."

Life is all about making choices

at times we land in a situation where we make or are forced to make choice(s). i m sure you will agree with me.... "life is all about making choices".... (and those choices we make may/may not affect us). our mind works from time to time when we are working at office, playing or even while we sleep.

i always think why did the thing go wrong when done. post mortem the cause is what people try out or may be not. blaming the destiny is what the end result is but that's not true. we should understand the destiny that we face is the resultant of choices we had made in past. so, its the choice we make for a problem that is been addressed which in turn has more importance than the problem/issue itself.

we come across lots of problems which stops us from moving ahead in life. we think either its a punishment for us or we aren't good enough to address it or responsible for it. the problem exists and thats the reality we all should understand it, though created naturally or artificially.

so what is the solution for this. identify, analyze, approach to solve it.... etc and finally pick the right (best) choice. to prosper in life is to make the best choice instead later regretting and dealing with the disaster it has caused to you.

last but not the least..... life is all about making (right) choices.... isn't it?

Good, Bad and the Worst Reality

An Olympic shooter wins Gold (Only a game) & Government gives him 3 Crores


Another Soldier dies, fighting with terrorists (Saving our country and our live) & government pays his family 5 lakhs

Worst Reality.... family members of these soldiers get the money only on the letter head paper of the govt. they run around the govt office for rest of their lives to get that "promised" compensation.

Can this "small" compensation fill the gap of those who have lost their lives?
