Just today somebody asked me about my new year resolution.............well its 16 of Jan and no new year resolution!!!! baad.....
Well I dont believe in new year resolutions because i am not going to stick to it.
Anyways...I have decided one new year resolution-
One is to get out of my comfort zone as soon as possible if that is what is needed.
By comfort zone -I mean they are things we become comfortable doing when we do them for two long even when they are not helping us in any ways.
I feel half of my problems will be solved if i do this.
I am sure girls will understand this better.
This is all for now.
Chao!!!!

Bollywood Calling
Some days back i was reading about some award functions,nominations and winners of Indian Cinema and I realised that most of the movies which had been nominated were very different-different in terms of stories or budget or stunts..but they were different.And one more thing which was outstanding about these movies was they were intelligent and intelligently made.
Say like some(good) movies in last year were -lage raho munnabhai,Rang de basanti,dor,Omkara,Dhoom2.None of them was a typical Hindi movie with those regular dance and songs sequences.They were all different and they all worked well at box office.
This goes to prove that Indian viewers have developed a taste for not very regular hindi masala movies and are very open to experimental movies.
I m pretty sure that this viewership that I m talking about is confined to metros and few other cities but it is there and it is growing.Credit definitely goes to age of multiplexes,influence of hollywood movies,better marketing of movies(take Yash Chopra for example),new techiniques and the biggest fact that Indians are looking forward to more realistic cinema.
Now the thick line between Art Cinema and Commercial Cinema has faded and movies like 'Hazaro Kwashiyen' and 'Dor' which are low budget but powerful movies are being widely accepted.
In my opinion Bollywood has come a long way and has a vast scope of going a long way.
Kudos to Indian Cinema!!!
