Whoa!! days are passing by real fast – weekend whizzed past me and I didn’t even notice !!!
Work, work, more work… …
Managed to watch Humraz yesterday – Could have been made into a better movie only if it was half its length. The first half really dragged.
Going to Bangkok for a business trip on wednesday. Lot of arrangements to be done.. I am dead tired but this trip is important for us as well as Aasim who will stay back with my parents for the first time.
Of sitting at one place and writing
I sometimes think of discontinuing writing in this journal. Throughout the day, I am running around the office and home organising things, talking to people, attending to guests, looking after the interests of the office, watching over Aasim, feeding him and his father, going here, doing this, looking at that… I just can not sit … Continue reading Of sitting at one place and writing
Of watching movies over weekend
Our weekend actually began on Thursday with watching Pakeezah – a beautiful redention of prose, poetry and dance to portray love. The film is a timeless classic Followed by Devdas (starring Shahrukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai) on Friday. The direction, acting choreography and Music Direction is good but the lyrics lack depth. They fall flat … Continue reading Of watching movies over weekend

Devdas

I am an ardent fan of Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai so watching these two perform on the script which moved me immensely as … Continue reading Devdas
