Movie Marathon


Very rare does it happen that you get to watch three good movies in a row. Last three weekend we  have been. …watching three delightful movies …so starting with the most Piku-li-year movie .

Soojit sarkar did something I have not seen in a long time ….directed a movie without any villain or useless..senseless item songs.

 Mr AB Sr. master’s the art of acting childlike or should I say that it is something which comes so naturally to him. He was mind-blogging as Auro in Paa, while as Piku’s father Mr. Bhaskor Banerjee he is mind-blowing.

As for Irrfan Khan he is such an effortless actor. This is his second movie which I have seen after lunchbox (that is if i ignore his miss-a-blink roles in Life of Pi , life in a metro et. al)and let me  admit I have started liking him . Somewhere as an audience I have been biased to the likes of SRK, HR etc etc and he never struck me appealing enough that I take the effort to watch his movies in theatre. But now it just appears as a perception, he may not be as charming as SRK or a greek god like HR yet there is something endearing, earthy about him which make you like him. He is like that underdog whom you want to root for……So thumps up for him!!!!

DPs….she is….should I say…in a very good company right now for she is doing movies like Finding Fanny , Ram leela …….improving with every movie….plus she has such a heart melting  childlike smile….making her a treat to watch.

The movie is swift as a breeze with some amazing dialogues like death and shit can come anytime anywhere (my ma laughed her heart out when I mentioned this dialogue to her)
So I would recommend this movie to someone who does not mind having a good laugh over potty jokes.

PS it is strictly advisable not to take anything in theatre to eat …who would certainly not feeling like eating while screen shows people discussing the nature of their shit.
I have one word for Kangana Ranut and that is brilliant. No one …read no one has acted double role with such an ease that it makes the two appear like two individuals rather than one person enacting them.

Tanu weds manu is movie where the supporting cast does an excellent job !! After Queen she has proved herself to master the art of versatility

I was waiting to watch DDD for quite some time….and don’t get me wrong the movie is really really nice….but somehow I excepted something more… cant pinpoint what else I wanted more but something more….may be its not laud like the usual indian family melodrama . But yes Ranveer singh was a revelation in the movie so was anil kapoor .

Nevertheless it’s a light hearted movie with excellent songs and cinematography!!!
So back to whats going on….ma papa are in US to be with didu….so I get to chat with them and sis and jijoo more often than the weekend chat we usually have…hearing to laddu antics  every day…which is fun

last couple of weeks I have been experimenting  significantly  in cooking and mostly getting it ok….today I am planning to make khandvi which is a Guju dish and has a marwari equivalent (almost) called as pithod….and let me tell u not many get pithod right so hopefully I should get it right (may be in next (4-5) times …so lets wait and watch.

Hubby has been busy due to his training and is suffering from severe back pain …hopefully by next weekend he should be free from both.
That’s all about it !!!

Happy Weekend J
