Review: Kadhaparayumbol

Yesterday I got to see the movie Kadha parayumbol. It's a Sreenivasan movie- yes it's funny and it's a different story. Mammootty, Salim Kumar,Mukesh, Meena , Jagadish & KPAC Lalitha are also in it. Meena acts very well as the wife of Sreenivasan- a man with good intentions, but not much progress in his life. Salim Kumar is his usual funny self. The movie is scattered with humourous dialogues which keep the audience in splits. It's a movie definitely worth watching.

Amazing Race Asia comes to an end

Guess what!!! The Amazing race finally came to an end. Even though the three teams are really good, I'm sure everyone thought that Marc & Rovilson would go home with the 100, 000 US dollars. It was a tight & exciting race with a twist. The ending was a surprise for most. Adrian & Collin came first and the girls a close second. I felt very happy when Adrian & Colin won, coz one of them has a hearing disability or rather he is differently abled. As the last test proved. Their team was the last to reach the final stop where they had to put the flags of countries visited in good order. And he was fast and real quick. I felt so happy and excited to see that last leg of the race. Wow!!!!

Tribute to Heath Ledger & Bharath Gopi

I was shocked when I heard of Heath Ledgers death. So young and so talented. I remember him in A Knight's Tale which was a comedy. The movie was enjoyable and he stood out as the knight. Brokeback Mountain was also a very well made but a serious movie. The movie got several nominations and Heath was nominated for the best actor award too. He also acted as Sonny Grotowski in Monster's Ball. This was a minor role, but memorable none the less. His role in the The Patriot will also be remembered. You can see more details here:http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005132/bio

The malayali actor Bharat Gopi also passed away. If you have seen him in Yavanika or Chidambaram, you will never be able to forget him. In Yavanika as the drunk tabla artist, he surpasses acting at all levels. It's like they actually picked someone like that from someplace. It's very real. He was given a state funeral which he truly deserved.

Amazing Race Asia Contest

I continue watching AXN on Thursady nights with a bated breath. The race goes on. Terri & henri are out. They really did liven up the show with their natural exuberance. But what I really want to share with anyone else out there who watches it is this:
There are prizes to be won, cameras, Nokias and the like. So u can take part in the race without actually going to places:) Go to this link and try yr luck:

Om Shanti Om

I must say that OSO is an entertainer & I would recommend it to anybody who just wants to "chill out ". The story is different for a Hindi Movie Still, different parts reminded me of bits n pieces of English movies...I am not going into which sections since then the surprise will be lost. The songs are all great & it's really funny at times. Shah Rukh & Deepika Padukone are in the lead with Arjun Rampal, Kiron Kher & Bindu in supporting roles. With Manikantan & Sabu Cyril to take care of cinematography & art direction, Farah & Shah Rukh couldn't have asked for more. F directs & SR produces under the Red Chillies banner.

the Amazing Race

I love watching Amazing Race which comes on AXN. Starting with the ad showing an arrow going around madly and the music, I love the show till the end. It's better to say that I am totally engrossed as it keeps your adrenaline high. What's different about this reality show is that the contestents do not have to vote people out. Rather people are sent out based on their performance. And it's a team based thing. The collection of teams is also interesting- a husband & wife in one, a brother & sister in another and 2 gym buddies in yet another....By the way it's on air every Thursady night.....can't wait to see the next episode:(
