Went for a play called JAZZ at Prithvi Theatre with Bharath and his mom. Aunty is a darling
Excerpts from the Prithvi Theatre newsletter
The play, based on the research of Naresh Fernandes, is written by Ramu Ramanathan and directed by Etienne Coutinho. It is a wonderful explosion of a rich musical genre. An Indian [...]

I’m zonked! I’ve found a new addiction and its LOST. By LOST, I mean the popular TV series starring Mathew Fox, Evangeline Lily, Naveen Andrews, etc. (I never bothered watching before). Like I’ve always said, I’m not a t.v. person but now this show has got me completely hooked. We’ve got our hands on season [...]

I was there! I, finally, was there! It was like being in a magical spell. I am glad I got this once in a life time opportunity. It’s just sinking in today and I still have that grin from yesterday - for having been able to make it, watching the man himself - in the [...]

Remember that Mika and Rakhi Sawant debate from 2006? For those who can’t remember, it was the much talked about kissing scene.

This is no doubt my all-time favourite video. I simply love this guy. Infact, my friends and I have our own version of this. Damn, I can’t find tht - so putting up Mr Numa Numa Fat Guy instead. I know it’s a bit stale now but I still laugh whenever I see it. Enjoy!

Sometimes, I wonder how much crap audiences can take. Television has such idiotic soaps and serials that totally scr*w your brains. As if that wasn’t enough, they have reality shows where it is almost compulsory for the participants to cry and overreact. Eeeks! They didn’t even leave dance shows. The latest to join this nonsense [...]

This one is thanx to Sameer. This is the Chinese/Malaysian version of ‘Ladki Baddi An Janni Hai’ from ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’. The video is really sweet. C’mon, now lets see, Shah Rukh Khan, Rani Mukherjee and Kajol match up with that.

I heard on the radio about the Hindi version of Pirates of the Caribbean - Dead Man’s Chest being released as ‘Samundar ke lutere - Murdey ka khazana‘. Yipes! How ridiculously, stupidly, technically correct the translation is! Anyway, I am yet to see it and from what I’ve heard from friends, it is an awesome [...]
