Whats in your heaaaad!

I heard this quote somewhere “If you hold back on the emotions–if you don’t allow yourself to go all the way through them—you can never get to being detached, you’re too busy being afraid. You’re afraid of the pain, you’re afraid of the grief. You’re afraid of the vulnerability that loving entails.”
And that I think that is a sad state to be in. I don’t see the point of holding back your emotions. What are you scared of anyway? You’ve just got one life; you really want to spend it living like a restricted, insecure person?

I usually don’t write movie reviews but this movie I just watched some time back was so pathetic that I had to mention it today. Chance pe Dance. Yes, it was horribly predictable. I was desperate to watch a movie and that’s why we planned on going for this one. Dance my ass! There’s no sign of good dance. After every 5 minutes, you have Shahid saying “1,2,3” and then you have green, red, yellow lights on him and he starts his acrobatics. Shahid, u disappointed me and Genelia ..It’s high time you stop giggling. It’s annoying. Nil chemistry between the two. There was a ‘trying to get intimate’ scene which was the biggest disappointment. Such things weren’t even shown in the 80s. The only good part was Zain Khan. Go google him. 16 yr old cutie. Not bad.

Anyway, the newest update is that I’ve turned into a vegetarian inspite of being a proper, hardcore Bengali (no wait, I would never have rice and fish so not that proper). Dad laughs it off saying that he’s sure I’ll go back to eating chicken in a few days, my mum’s furious as she feels I’m only doing this to lose weight, my brother who just isn’t aware of how important my decision is.. could only come up with a “So?” and my uncle who would keep joking about coming to my house after I get married to eat maach-bhaat is deeply saddened.
I actually came across this article which spoke about vegetarianism. I got so involved that I did a bit more of research and that was enough for me to give up my 19 year old love for chicken. So, no chicken anymore, it’s only ghaas-poos for me now. Aiyoo, this is going to be tough :(

P.S: Listen to Zombie by The Cranberries, people. Superrr song.
'Whats in your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie'

I like veggie people and respect their decisions. So there. You got support on blogger. Your very own second home, like Nil says.

Genelia is a cutie and the only thing she is good for is giggling, apparently. Have you not noticed she has nothing else in her? She's like a giggling widget on the bollywood blog.

Whatever.

I must be going crazy if I am comparing bollywood with a blog!

Gah!

Do you people mind putting up the story like I did for Rocket Singh!
You write two lines and call it a review? Write the story so it'll be easier for bald fat old people like me not to go to the movies, because well, we simply don't have the time too. Talking about time, I have had the DVD of 3i sitting on my mantle for ages now and I still haven't even put it in the player!

Go figure!

Aparna said...

I like Shahid and it is sad that he signs these nonsense movies.
A vegetarian Bengali? Hmm, it is tough, specially when you come across the lovely food stalls in the Puja pandal selling kosha mangsho.

LITTLE ON THE EDGE said...

wow.....good luck with that......i dunno if il ever be able to give up chicken....but good initiative :)

Anonymous said...

What!!! a hardcore Bengali giving up chicken!! Its too much for me to take... Being a Bengali myself, I am always on the lookout for chicken dishes...
A week without chicken is too much for me to bear.

But do tell me if you survived a WEEK without chicken?
