The Samurai

Before i start i must say that i am not a techno geek regarding bikes nor am I a die hard biker....this post has been made up up with my "limited " knowledge on bike riding ,i have tried almost all possible bikes that are available to an average Indian & i do have an appreciable Long drive experience( "cbe-ooty-cbe" from "2 am to 6 am " being the highlight ) ..I managed to get my hands on a Yamaha RX 100 for a whole day after a long gap ...it doesn't have the big macho look & as the name suggests its just a mere 100 cc engine..There are bigger bikes than this in size & capacity , but i have felt that they were "external machines" .i.e . when you race @ 100+km/h you always feel that you ride on something but with Rx its like “you” are cruising by yourself the bike becomes a part of you , .. with rx there is no such thing as an external machine “it” becomes you .whatever the speed you have complete control..The bike also reminds me of samurais...The samurai or not big in size & strength..but they are the ultimate warriors who can any win hunk with their swiftness & control ....pulsar, apache ,karizma and many more macho bikes may come with time but only RX 100 will remain the "Ultimate Man Bike"

I feel good....bloody good

when your placement percentage springs up from 0 to 33 and when you can beat up someone till your fingers swell & your shirt gets drenched in sweat ...you feel good ...bloody good dedicated to all who got placed ( esp the ones with a soar back)

The good,the Bad & the ugly

Here i am finally completing all the formal exams of UG life.. Surprisingly i don't feel much about it now, think it ill take a few days to realize ...The good part about the past week was i was able to watch a few films

First up zombieland---This is kind off a parody of zombie films ( much like shaun of the dead) "or" as some would call it a sub genre film....by this i don't mean a spoof movie -its better than that , the humor is creative & witty (its got one of the best celeb cameo appearances ) though its a horror parody it has a few interesting characters &e ven if gory zombie movies are not your candy you ill still find this to be entertaining

next up Inglorious basterds --if you are expecting a "pop cult" style flick like pulp fiction then i would say it won’t fulfill your need , but on the hand if you want to see a tarantino movie that’s more character driven ( which hasn’t been offered since reservoir dogs) then you ill be delighted...of all tarantino films i would say only this makes you "feel" for some characters ...but this doesn't mean that it doesn't have all the cool lines & violence you ill expect in tarantino films -its got loads of em ....and one of the remarkable things is the character of "Col. Hans Landa"--- its so well written & aptly played that you almost forget that its an anti Nazi film ( Christoph Waltz got the best actor award @ Cannes for it) .....if AMPAS has to get some respect then they ought give him a supporting actor norm at least

Next two are Indian Films kancheevaram & Firaaoq

Kancheevaram-- now i regret for missing it in "theater" ....much injustice has been done to this by us Indians...its one the very few films of our country that stand on par with other country films...its got very simple & predictable plot but the characterization & acting take it to a very high level ( reminds you good old satyajit Ray films ) ...its almost flawless ...one of the best Indian films i have seen & i would call it A MASTER PIECE


Firaq- nandita das debut as a director has been very good, unlike kancheepuram its got complex plot & deals much complex issues...its one the very few films which shows you the carnage of riots without single on screen violence ...overall very interesting film

Those were all the Good movies i saw

i did see a film called "Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani"---its bad & its ugly
