a Rhino on my Wrist

was saving money for a Titan Octane. 6k was the price. although the price tag is secondary but 6k for a watch was too much. but i have a fascination for watches so was ready to shell out.

then last week read about this launch of WWF range of Titan watches. In collaboration with World Wildlife Fund, 13 models, marked with 6 endangered wildlife species of India were launched as collector's edition. Part of the sales will be used in the conservation programs by WWF.

auspicious combination! watch, wildlife, limited edition, contribution.

impatient i am, so ran for the nearest store and picked up a Rhino watch! and am boasting it proudly

tahaan and other movies

most of you wont like it. "its waste of time and money" you'll say.

its a small story. a kid, his donkey, few people, and kashmir. the kid's persual reminded me of another kid's movie Halo, came long back, there this little girl fought for her dog.

Tahaan. in the interval i commented "aah! after a long time me seeing a non-metro movie. no buildings, no urban lifestyles, no mumbai, no bombs or guns, no flying cars, no stars, no slapstick double-meaning humour. simple story, simple people and beautiful Kashmir. relief to eyes and mind"

The real treat was... beautiful kashmir and the camera in Santosh Sivan's control. superbly great cinematographer. each and every frame was a photograph, a wallpaper in itself. i can watch it a number of times just to relax my mind. and yes, Halo too was Santosh's creation. seems like only him and Vishal Bhardwaj think of kids these days.

then we saw A Wednesday. i knew there was nothing more than say a few scenes for me in this movie. and actually only the last 10 minutes, and that too the lines; no action, was worth some money of the ticket. a sheer waste of talent of Kher sahab and Shah sahab. any other heavy voice could have done the jobs. well, if a criminal could pee in his pants just seeing Jimmy Shergill, the movie could have been completed with Vivek and, say Sohail replacing the senior actors.

Wall-E. eagerly waiting for the DVD release.

Welcome to Sajjanpur. one time watch good entertainment. no need to keep the name Shyam Benegal in mind anywhere. though you can tell the expertise in nitty gritties.
