Is quickly becoming corporate facebook!

Kiran Nagarkar’s take on Mirabai remains one of my favorite books by an Indian author. This morning, a thought struck me. I think Sanjay Leela Bhansali should make this book into a movie with Aishwarya and Abhishek. I don’t know why, but I feel Sanjay Leela Bhansali would do complete justice to this book!

Watched the movie finally! It was pretty good! For once TV to movie adaptation didn’t kill the comic element.

Desi 1: The IPL final is like superbowl

Desi 2: Yeah but you know there is so much corruption in India…..

WTF…….

Unfortunately the producers spent millions on ensuring the star kid looks like a clone of Hrithik Roshan.

Worse still, they roped in Anu Malik to the music for this futuristic movie.

Little do they know though that Anu Malik is still in 1950! Terrible music.

I am amused. I find every second desi blogger to b an expert on American Politics! Its fine if you say you’ve have spent a good part of last decade here and know the dynamics a bit- but some of the posts I come across are written in a way that would put most prolific American political writers to shame! What idiots!

WOW – what a dramatic finale! Damn! I didn’t see that one coming. I know I said this last time too ;). February 2009 can’t come soon enough!!!

LOST is the best show on television. Period!

Sitting in a room right now with almost 15-20 people. Its like sitting in a coach of a Indian train stuck in the middle of nowhere – and because the train is stuck late, now it must wait on every other train to pass before it starts again. This is exactly how I feel right now 😛

Apple issued an update (sort of service pack) for OS X today, and it stands an average between 200-400Mb.

As usual, apple fan sites and forums are so full of “Oh look, an update”, “My computer’s zippy!!”, “Awesome update”, “Look I found this!” crap.

Get over it people! Its a freaking update, more than 80% of just bug fixes and nothing else. Jeez, these apple fanboys have nothing to do!

Imagine poor Windows issuing a 400Mb update and…

In an interview Lalit Modi says:

So there’s you know a lot of people making a lot of money off the IPL, but you’re not one of them?

No I’m not one of them, unfortunately not.

Why not?

Well, I do this in an honorary position and BCCI is a charity and a trust. It’s a non-profit making organization and we do this for development of the game and I’m passionate about the game. And we do this so that the people in India can enjoy the facilities and we can build a great cricketing culture and we can have great facilities for our players.

— BCCI is a CHARITY and Non-PROFIT? That’s the biggest load BS I have heard in a long long long time!
