Dogs gave Oscar to DOG

I am not an expert in movies or music but I strongly believe these are not for experts but for audience like me. I have watched a lot of movies and listened to a lot of songs. Practically I am a movie freak and I live with music and listen to songs for at least 12hrs a day.

I have watched this movie with lots of anticipation. I haven’t heard of the story as always. I feel that I ll not enjoy the movie if I hear the story before watching it myself. From the title I expected the movie would be something like ‘GURU’ story of someone who knew what hunger is and what money is and who fights his way to riches.

I didn’t say that only this sort of a story is a good one. The point simply put is our Chennai Visual communication students have made better short films than this movie. True and people in the industry would for sure agree. This movie would have made an above average TV series in an Indian channel and definitely nothing more.

I do agree Rahman is a legend. More than 30% of my playlist is occupied by his works but this one. People please do tell me do you heartily agree that the ‘Jai Ho’ song is one of Rahman’s best. This is something mocking to this music maven. I guess even Rahman himself agrees to it. He has said that he had only 2% faith that he ll get this accolade.

The worst part is Indians celebrating such a mock aimed directly at their face. This magnifies the impression the global community has on us as FOOLs.

Not only the Indian people even the global community will agree there are unmatchable movies in Indian cinema history which inspite of their poor finance have touched millions of people. This prejudice and discrimination will one day destroy Oscar.

Fave Movies

I am actually a movie freak. I used to watch atleast 2 movies a week and my record is 15 movies in a week. Whenever I watch a movie I get completely taken in and I feel the movie as close as an important character in the movie.

I take this post to write about a few of my favorite movies.

Jab We Met
A beautiful story depicting the power of optimism and determination. The Movie is all about how a crestfallen business heir and his company are back to life by the encounter of a childish chubby girl. I really admire this line and I strongly do believe,
“One who wishes for something truly, actually he will for sure get it”.

Kate & Leopold
A fictitious love story across times. Meg Rayn with her exemplary performance as usual played the role of a typical working women who seldom has time to listen to the deeper feelings of herself. The climax is about how she realizes her love and runs back to her love. The crux of the movie as I felt is a Jackman’s dialogue
“Life is not solely comprised of tasks but tastes”.

Timeline
Another movie on time travel. Scientists end up with a time machine while they try building a teletransporter or something like that. Archeologist are called for help and the story is about how they managed to change the history. The power of love that has the potential to make history. “We make our own history”.

Enchanted
Partly animated fictitious and again time travel based movie. A beautiful girl from some animated magical world sent to our world by a witch falls in love with a guy of this time. The movie again an extravaganza on love, “True love’s Kiss”.

National Treasury
A superb movie spine-tingling and informative. “The treasure is too big for any king”.

Lord of War
A middle class youth turning into an international weapons dealer through sheer astuteness and quest for riches. How true it has become that,
“People kill each other to survive and that’s the way of survival”.

Pirates of the Caribbean ( I,II,III)
Comic and action filled extravaganza. Jhonny Depp truly extraordinary.
“You will remember this day as the day you almost… Captain Jack Sparrow’.

GURU
Story of an extra-ordinary entrepreneur. Man who grows big in business with nothing more than firm astuteness and arduousness.
“Fight with GURU Bhai as GURU himself, but GURU is one of his kind”.

Om Shanti Om
Movie on a freak who badly wants to be a cine hero. Sharuk with his usual maestro performance takes us into the movie. The movie like Jab We met accentuates on the fact,
“One would get what he wishes for from deep in his heart”. It’s a beautiful line that,
“If its not happy then its not the end”.
