Abzee- I remember Sarita was always very Kanjoos in giving any stars to any movies in its- “Chanchal Chaya” movie review section.

Remembered the days when my dad, mom, chacha, chachis used to read Dharamyug, Saptahik Hindutan, Sarita, Kadambni and above all Jansatta !!!

Rocky, my dad actually works for the publication house that publishes सरिता in addition to ग्रिहशोभा, सरस सलिल, Woman’s Era, India Today, Alive, चंपक, ग्रिहशोभिका, etc.

Abid & Satyam- You can type in Devanagiri font if you have the font downloaded on your computer.

Shourie actually had a big fallout with ramanath Goenka.

yeah i saw that…it’s a slip as Shourie was in fact taking the position (as we saw in that interview I posted a few days ago) that Gurubhai does before the inquiry commission…

On second read, the author is assuming Madhvan’s character to be Shourie rather than Gurumurthy !!!! Kya farak padta hai !!!!

Q I was actually humming the song from yuva, when I was writing this. The one with Kareena Kapur. Thanks for the crashing info., Copying tip should be helpful.

Re: “Dhanyavaad, Shukriya, Meharbani !!!!”

The rhythm of this line reminds me of Parveen Babi’s “Shukriya Karam Meherbani”, beginning one of the coolest B’wood songs ever IMO: “Pyar karne waale pyar karte hain… shaan se” by Panchamda!!!

Yes this was just a cut & paste.

Rocky: problems galore as the site keeps crashing. I don’t even hit “submit comment” anymore without copying, as I have lost so many comments of late. I emailed Rohit and he knows and is on it, and I’m sure it’ll be fixed in a few days.

Thanks Satyam, Waise have you been experiencing problems posting comments recently, I have been facing problems big time and I end up not posting any thing. I wonder if the Avtar’s are doing this.

Rocky: I think this is a simple cut and paste though Abzee wrote some Hindi here yesterday and I don’t know how he imported the font.

I have added a transliterated version to the post for those who don’t read Hindi. Please point out any errors that I may have made.

Love the bit on Mayya..

“yadi ise dekhna chahte hain to theater time par pohanchiye!”

This thought occurred to me when I was watching the film. There’s always a risk in having an item song too early in the film. Dus weirdly had the best song of the film running over the credits!

आज के समय का कोई अभिनेता अभिनय की उस बुलंदी को नहीं छू सकता जिसे अभिषेक ने सहजता से अभिनीत किया है गुरू में

(Basically it says no actor today could scale the sort of heights with his performance that Abhishek has in Guru)

I can hardly disagree…
