Elements of Nature

Are you smarter than a Fifth grader?
Can you tell me how many elements of nature we have? Is your guess 4 like most of us smart people who are not smarter than a fifth grader? Well, bad news. You still stay in that category :P...

Water, Fire, Earth and Air. Isn't that what you were thinking? Well, you forgot one like I always did till about a week back :)...A voltage surge in our apartment fried our desktop and the famous windows blue screen hugged our laptop and there we were....clueless, speechless and thoughtless....no Internet connectivity just threw our lives out of rhythm...we relied on internet for jobs, movies, news, recipes, friends...everything....taking that out of our lives and leaving us with the other 4 elements still made it very difficult for us to sustain a normal life.....I haven't been born with internet, but my reliance on internet has grown exponentially over the years so much so that life stopped during it's absence :(. Isn't it rightfully a fifth element? :)...

Anyways, I am back ofcourse and blogging while watching "Jab We Met" for the second time in 4 days...for those of you who haven't seen it, watch it! It is a very sweet movie.

Take a Guess

**** is a happy-go-lucky guy in **. He falls in love at fight sight with ** who visits from xx. ** is the sister of *** who is a popular builder and mafia man. * is another mafia don who wants to marry ** against her wishes. The film is all about how **** puts an end to * and marries **.

Now, that's the story. Can you tell which movie this story is for? Take a guess!
Count 100, 99, 98 .... 18 ... 8,7 ...2,1...

YES. YOU ARE RIGHT.

I didn't know you were that bright! I never knew you knew Telugu movies this well. Hats off to you...Well, if you are gloating, beaming or blushing you have no reason to do so :)

This is the story of every Telugu movie, no matter what you picked! I wonder how we watch the same story again and again and again...and again....can't exactly blame the director because a formula "as long as it works"... if we show some resistance, the directors will open up their creative juices....Tell me if you purchase a stock (say Goog) and it consistently works very well, makes your money manifold, would you dare sell it? I wouldn't !!

But that is true as long as it works...same with an idea...as long as we like it, we will see it :)...creativity is actually in the heads of a viewer not a director...if we can open that out, it ends up being viral :). Anyways after saying all this, you will kill me for saying this :)...I want to watch a "proper" Telugu movie now :P....been a long time....maybe I will choose something that is slightly different :P.....

Enjoy your lives, however you live it!!!

Baaaaaaaaaccccckkkkk Aggainn

Back Again! Well, maybe that's the umpteenth time I am saying this, but this time I am serious! Life has/had become very busy with me picking up two different jobs within the company, but that is a bad excuse for keeping quiet! All my five senses were deeply drenched in Sabre (a very bad thing!), but my sixth sense just had it's own mind. Well, that's what brought me back because it told me if I don't live beyond my 4 walls, I don't have a life. So here I am and here's where I will be.


WISH YOU ALL A HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR 2008 WITHOUT RECESSION, TERRORISM, STUPIDITY


Gone are the days when we wished that something nice would happen...These days all our wishes are towards having status quo or maybe wishing that something worse wouldn't happen. Feels weird, but is that far from the truth?
