Ghajini -- Review



“Itni Shiddat se maine tujhe paane ki koshish ki hai; ki har zarre ne mujhe tumse milane ki saajish ki hain”.


This is a dialogue from the OSO delivered by SRK. However, while watching the movie ghajini, i felt the dialogue more apt here. Right, so i have seen this movie and also read countless reviews people have written. Infact i read the review first and then watched the movie ( hah ..kya dude huin na main ? ). But then, i would also like to point out few things about this movie.

First, anyone who still believes that this is inspired from the movie Memento, then my friend you are correct. But the similarity ends at the fact that our hero also scribbles onto his body small details and uses photos to manage his memory as he is suffering from "short term memory loss" or referred to as the 15 min. guy as he lasts for 15 mins. I mean, his memory. Thatz it. Rest of all is the old Indian love story masala. Rich guy falls for poor girl, girl is killed, hero takes revenge !!!.

Even though am a Aamir khan fan, i don't feel the movie is upto his standards. It could have been better. May be i am comparing it to its original hollywood (which is a master piece by-the-way, you must have a dekho at it), but then, i didn't find the movie more appealing, apart from the few funny moments in the beginning and also the ease with which Aamir transformed himself from a normal guy to a revenge seeking ferocious animal and vice-versa.

Secondly, i guess what the story line would have been, had our female lead shown common sense and placed her mobile on silent mode when she was hiding ?. Nobody thought abt it ?? ..or is it just my great observation !! .. Nah, i know am not that good, and hence proves that there were some goof up .. Aamir are you listening ??

Jiah khan, the less i talk about her, the better. I did like her one time ..but now she is un-watchable. May be she was without her makeup or something , i don't know.

Overall i would say, a bit bloody and gory movie, some scenes were really cruel. A good one time watching type.

Also have a look at this .. its self-explanatory as to why women should not be allowed to watch ghajini ..




He he ..

New Year .. new begining !!

Happy new year (to any1 who is reading this !!). New year means ..celebrations .. fireworks .. and making of new resolutions which are meant to be broken within few days or months for most of us. As i lie in that category of breaking resolution ( in few hours sometimes ), i have decided not to make any new year resolutions, instead i have made a wish-list :D.So here it goes ..


1. Around the world trip in a personal jet.
2. At least 10 servants to help me out.
3. Around 5 people whose job is to carry out my office work.
4. I want a swimming pool filled with chocolates and all sweets :-D ( still a kid u see ;) )
5. I want the prime-ministers and presidents of each country to read out news to me every morning.
6. My house should be on a hill top from where one side shuld be ocean ..and the other side should be mountains ... with the best scenery on offer ..
7. My music system should have access to all radio stations all over the world ( May be extra-terrestrial too)
8. A round the solar system vacation for me and my frnds :-D


Thatz all ... i am not greedy .. i just want everything u see :)
