I found it as a very creative way of touching the storyline of Namesake, AbiAsh, a dig at the current "bollywood" film patterns and last but not the least KANK, all in one story. Keep it up.<BR/><BR/>I just started reading your blog after some heavy recommendations from one of your readers.

Cos I could not believe my KJ had let me down so bad! :P<BR/><BR/>//Well, Chunari Chunari (original) was not an "item" song really was it?<BR/><BR/>Well, the definition of 'item number' has changed in the last decade. Earlier, any upbeat song that appeared randomly in the movie was an 'item number' so the Sush-Salman original would have qualified. I'd say the current definition of an item number would be something like "a catchy song with no relevance to the movie featuring a dance by a hot chick in skimpy clothes who, much to your disappointment, shall not appear in the movie after that song". <BR/><BR/>#Vivek,<BR/>Thanks! :)<BR/><BR/>//Either you could get rich, or at least get a "bharat ratna" posthumously!!<BR/><BR/>Posthumously????!!! :'(<BR/><BR/>#QSG,<BR/>Hahahaha!

The only movie i have seen of hers is Black well that and KANK(but lets not talk of KANK) and i cried! Only Bad actors or Good actors have ever made me cry and i still think she is a very good actor! Although i must say i tend to like most Bengali actresses ;)!!!!<BR/><BR/>ok, Wot about Abhishek in Sarkar???<BR/><BR/>Well, Chunari Chunari (original) was not an "item" song really was it?

What do you think? :)<BR/><BR/>//Rani IS a very good Actor.<BR/><BR/>Well, I think that the only reason why Rani is considered a very good actor is because the others suck so bad. I don't have to be a fan because you are, eh? :)<BR/><BR/>//was impressed with his work in Guru<BR/><BR/>Well, and I wasn't. Haha! :D I totally didn't like Abhishek's acting in Guru. :)<BR/><BR/>//I think Mira Nair should be credited for the best item song ever in Bollywood - how could you forget the Chunari Chunari item song in Monsoon Wedding???!!!!<BR/><BR/>Well, firstly, I thought Chunari Chunari (the original) was from Biwi number one? :) Please don't give Mira Nair undue credit - she has enough of it under her belt. Secondly, I don't think it was the best item song ever in Bollywood. Aha, difference of opinion again! :)Sayeshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04714384325271565917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10064462.post-89402207310379665122007-04-10T14:49:00.000+08:002007-04-10T14:49:00.000+08:00For once, i did not find your post funny!

I would've said the same about Abhishek, but then he went and made the decision to marry Ash, so I don't know what to think of him anymore. Sheesh.<BR/><BR/>I liked the movie too. Having read the book, I think the movie did full justice to it. It does drag a bit, but the great thing is that the book does too, in exactly the same way. There's no big plotline, and yet everything comes together in the end, even though you're left wondering what "everything" is, exactly. Heh. It's...different. In a good way. :)<BR/><BR/>Aaaand there's my review for the month.
