One kick-ass email forward!

1. People who point at their wrist while asking for the time … I know where my watch is pal, where the hell is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?

2. People who are willing to get off their ass to search the entire room for the TV remote because they refuse to walk to the tv and change the channel manually.

3. When people say “Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too”. Damn right! What good is cake if you can’t eat it?

4. When people say “it’s always the last place you look”. Of course it is. Why the hell would you keep looking after you’ve found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they? Gonna Kick their asses!

5. When people say “life is short”. What the hell?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!! What can you do that’s longer?

6. When people say while watching a film “did you see that?”. No Loser, I paid Rs. 200 to come to the cinema and stare at the damn floor.

We'll sell the taxi. That will easy make more money than this movie will! Kya bolta hai?!

I wasted another 2 hours and all credit to Mr.Nikhil Arora. Go and do something bad to yourself Nikhil! Or buy a mouthwash or somethin’ refresh your taste in movies. Yeah you really need it, seriously! Dont know what made you harp about ‘The Killer’ so much. Bad script & screenplay, bad direction, bad acting- you have everthing here! Irrfan Khan goes about killing his targets as if they are sitting ducks. Not his fault, he tries to raise the level of the movie and gives up. Emraan Hashmi cant act without a good director. No comments on Nisha Kothari’s acting ’cause there was none of it at all. Yes, if there is one thing she can work on, its her smile. Is she trying to look cute or vicious? Keeps you wondering whether she’s with the good guy or is the vamp! What luck?! I get to watch two movies featuring my fave actors and both are duds! I’ll be careful next time when you praise a movie, Nikhil! Ballet Dancer asked me a good question about me watching ‘Corporate’- “Ugh…whats forcing you into it?” The answer – My belief that good actors can make it worthwhile even with a bad script. To my displeasure, I found out that it isnt so. Good actors at most can do their part well. The rest depends on the script and its
execution. Poor Irrfan and Kay Kay. Would have been superstars if they were in Hollywood.

Here's my resignation Madhur, I quit!

This is one movie, my friends, which made me feel like a complete loser. Why?! Half-hour into it and I began to wonder why dont have I anything better to do! Am I so worthless that I have to sit through such crap? This is one bad movie and Madhur Bhandarkar is a bad director and storyteller. Dont know how he made ‘Chandni Bar’. What made me sit through the whole movie? The Kay Kay Menon-fan in me! Yep I just wanted to see him. And I was disappointed on this count too. Its pretty obvious he did it for the money. Has nothing in it for him as an actor. All characters are so cliched. Lillete Dubey, Rajat Kapur were given such lame roles. One person who did get something to do was Raj Babbar and he did it well. Other than him this movie is trash. Bipasha is a star not an actor and ‘Corporate’ reaffirms this. I liked the song ‘O Sikander’ and thats that. Get to see a Kay Kay Menon movie after so long and what crap! Die Madhur Bhandarkar die!

P.S. Yep, I’m baak! My lappy is here and there will be a lot more activity here so keep watchin’ this space! And thank you Ballet Dancer for chattin with me as I ‘went through Corporate’. Wouldn’t have completed this movie without you! Coz I needed something even more boring and pakau than this movie……Cheers!
