According to the official website, Raavan is not a story but a world. Dev (Vikram), a police officer, falls in love with Ragini (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan), a classical dancer. They are both unconventional. They get married and he takes her to his new post in Lal Maati, a small town in northern India. Lal Maati is a town where the word of law is not the police but Beera (Abhishek Bachchan), a tribal who has, over the years shifted the power from the ruling to the have-nots of the area. Dev knows that the key to bringing order to any place is to vanquish the big fish, in this case - Beera. In one stroke Dev manages to rip open Beera's world, and set in motion a chain of events which will claim lives, change fortunes. Beera, injured but enraged hits back starting a battle that draws Dev, Beera and Ragini into the jungle. The story goes on to tell the sequence of events that follow.

Raavan
Mani Ratnam has reportedly shot a film that is a modern day version and a loose adaptation of the Indian epic Ramayana in which the wife of Lord Rama, Sita was abducted by the demon (Rākshasa) king of Lanka, Ravana. It is said that Raavan will have a new twist on the Ramayana.[4]

Indian Society and IPLGate
I heard one of the more interesting conversations about IPLGate on Cricinfo (included in the widget below). Harsha Bhogle, Sanjay Manjrekar and Ayaz Memon made some extremely valuable points there. But the point that really stuck with me was made by Sanjay Manjrekar. He said "I wish for the benefit of India cricket that Indian cricket fans didn't love the game so unconditionally. I wish they were more demanding".
It was an absolutely awesome statement. Two of India's finest niceties are they they are not very demanding and they are extremely forgiving. It almost comes to a point where some people have started exploiting these virtues. India finds itself in unprecedented times today. The growing economy, the wealth, the importance and the belief that the times ahead promise much more are something that hadn't happened anytime before. There is a tremendous sense of achievement and confidence. However, there are some attributes passed on from previous generations that haven't gone away.
My parents generation was the first one after India's independence. It was probably a time when most of the country had indulged itself (knowingly or unknowingly) in nation-building. Government had tons and tons of work to do. And thats why Government jobs were abundant. Having a Government job was the norm, in fact prestigious. It came with decent salaries and most importantly security. However, poverty and simple livelihood were pretty common. And since people didn't have too many resources at their disposal they were not very demanding. They didn't need everything to be perfect. They were happy to just enjoy whatever they had rather than worry about what they didn't. This in turn makes people more forgiving as well.
Compare this to an American or European society where people have been well to do for generations. They've almost got used to things being just perfect and therefore anything other than perfect draws a lot of ire. For e.g. Indian roads haven't been in the greatest of shapes for years (they've improved now). But that didn't make people pelt stones or burn effigies of the concerned officers. Compare this to an incident where an American freeway has some pothole. Police with immediately shutdown the freeway (or at least that lane) till the time it is made perfect.
But this will change. The India of today is rich, glamorous and is getting used to things being perfect. They can afford a better lifestyle and are getting used to it. I don't think newer generations of Indians would want to go to an ordinary cinema hall once they've been to a multiplex. And once this better lifestyle becomes the norm everywhere, it will mean that people strive to get the best of everything.
So if an IPLGate happens again in a few years, people will not be that forgiving. It will take a lot of effort to win their confidence back. But till then, let's just hope that controversies such as these are few and far between.

IPLGate: "Na deshyudh, na dharmayudh... ye hai dharti par karmayudh"
The Indian Premier League started as this colossus of entertainment. It was the perfect mashup of cricket, India's biggest infatuation along with Bollywood, glitz, glamour and huge sums of money. Sure, the international cricket stars rubbed shoulders against each other. But the best of IPL was these magic moments when somone like Shadab Jakati or Rajat Bhatia foxed the likes of Glichrist and Hayden or Manish Pandey or Shrivats Goswami hammered Dale Steyn and Shane Warne. For almost two months India did nothing but IPL. Cinama halls didn't see movies releasing, TV didn't see new serials starting and I'm sure local businesses found their clientele more glued to television that visiting restaurants or grocery stores. It was almost as if all the money involved in anything associated with "having-a-good-time" was routed to the IPL. Nothing could match the excitement of a three hour T20 match between two privately owned teams. Seriously, the IPL was something India couldn't have enough of.
And now suddenly the IPL has kinda surprised itself. It has proved that there was something that was more interesting (sensational?) that the IPL matches. It was "IPLGate" :). So even though I keep an eye on the cricket matches, I find myself more interested in what Lalit Modi and co. are upto. How many teams did he actually own? How much was his stake? How much money did he swindle? And much more... It also gives me some pleasure in saying "See... I told you... How does someone like SRK, or even worse Priety Zinta and Shilpa Shetty, have these huge sums of money? None of them (nor their respective past and present better halves are as rich as Ambani or Mallya." I may be proved completely wrong and someone could come up with numbers that add up. But you can't deny that I had my moment :D.
The last few days have been especially exciting. What started off as a tiff between a super suave junior minister (popularly found near the terms "External Affairs" (:D), "cattle class", "tweet", etc.) and Lalit, turned into a big brawl and now seems like a full fledged war (where the junior minister has made way for IT officials). The interesting part is that this war is not about who wins. It is about who won't lose.
. If Lalit Modi loses, he will lose his position as the IPL commisioner, pot loads of money and whatever else he must have been cooking behind the scenes.
. If Lalit Modi does not lose, the BCCI might lose its credibility as it failed to act against Modi, the IPL might lose since everyone will continue to look at it as a black money powered, tax evading tournament which didn't clean itself up when the opportunity presented itself.
. If Lalit Modi and the BCCI agree on some common terms and decide to settle the dispute, most likely they'll be able to keep everything under wraps. Given that they have tons of money, politicians from the ruling and the opposition parties, influential businessmen and some people from the media on their side, that wouldn't be too big a problem. In such a case, India loses :(.
Well, India loses in all the three cases above :(.
The best part about an intriguing thriller is the climax. When we almost always find out that someone is schizophrenic :D. But at least there is something we are looking forward to.
So what is it that we are all looking forward to in IPLGate? Would we rejoice if Lalit Modi was found guilty of malpractices and sent to jail? Would we sulk if the IPL was terminated indefinitely? Even if it continues, would IPL be the same again?
The best outcome, I think, might be that Lalit Modi makes way for someone just like him but honest and transperant to be the new head of the IPL. But unfortunately, such a person may not exist and the IPL may never be the same again.

"City of Gold - Lalbaug Paral"
Mahesh Manjrekar is all set to release a film on the trials and tribulations of the textile mill workers in Mumbai. Titled "City of Gold" for the Hindi version and "Lalbaug-Paral" for the Marathi version, it seems like the first of its kind movie.
While I've heard many a stories about the textile mills of Mumbai, I haven't had a chance to watch any film on that topic. Apparantly there were as many as 50 textile mils which gave employment to about 250000 people. There were problems of salaries and bonuses which resulted in the textile mill workers going on a strike for almost a year. It eventually led to the closure of the mills. The land that was occupied by these mills was sold to wealthy real-estate owners. The mills have been brought down and large malls, multiplexes, etc. have been built.
There is no single answer about what happened to the 250000 workers who worked in these mills. Looks like "City of Gold" is all about these people.

Recent happening with IPL is very unfortunate which started with bidding for the Kochi Franchisee and further tweeting by Lalit Modi the Big Boss of IPL regarding the stake holders of the Kochi Franchisee. The Sweat equity issued to Sunanda Pushkar who is a close associate of Shashi Tharoor led to an aligation against Sashi Tharoor . Sunanada Pushkar is a business woman based in Dubai, basically and Indian from Kashmir.

India Census
Link to original article: Click here
India is launching a new census in which every person aged over 15 will be photographed and fingerprinted to create a biometric national database.
The government will then use the information to issue identity cards.
Officials will spend a year classifying India’s population of around 1.2 billion people according to gender, religion, occupation and education.
The exercise, conducted every 10 years, faces big challenges, not least India’s vast area and diversity of cultures.
Census officials must also contend with high levels of illiteracy and millions of homeless people - as well as insurgencies by Maoists and other rebels which have left large parts of the country unsafe.
President Pratibha Patil was the first person to be listed, and appealed to fellow Indians to follow her example “for the good of the nation”.

If they wanted to see some serious acts-art house movie. And when they wanted to get frightened - there were always good old Ramsay movies. No doubt how silly the movies were, it surely had managed to scare Indian audience a big time.

Strange as the title may seem, I really want you to wake up Sid ! I just cant believe that You are not there anymore. I want you to wake up as the turn of events over the last couple of days has been cruel to say the least and unjustified. Why you?
I write this piece in memory of a dear friend, a customer, an ardent supporter and more importantly a very good human being. Siddhartha Padam, Sid to me and a lot of us, was sadly killed in a fire accident in Bangalore on 23-Feb while he was at work. He along with 2 of his colleagues was snuffed out by a fire that engulfed the Carlton Towers where his office was located.

Woow.. I would give it 9/10 as rating for this film.. though it’s 8.1/10 in IMDB (still good, right?)..
What a masterpiece it is..
I give 9 for the whole film.. n 1 for the Indian song which made it dramatic (and I don’t really like it)..
Well, 3 Idiots told us a story about a journey of Raju (Sharman Joshi) and Farhan’s (Madhavan) in purpose to look for their best friends in college, Rancho (Aamir Khaan).. It’s an interesting journey they’ve got.. In the middle of the journey, we can see the flashback of their adventures in a college.. and why Raju and Farhan have big willing in finding Rancho.. The college story is interesting too.. It takes most of the film duration.. It tells us about how education works in India, what’s the primary issue, and problems that usually arise in Indian college life..
Woow.. I would give it 9/10 as rating for this film.. though it’s 8.1/10 in IMDB (still good, right?)..
What a masterpiece it is..
