Snakes on a Plane (2006)

I don’t have a fear of Snakes but I will think twice before touching them. Imagine putting 450 snakes on a plane. Samuel Jackson stars in a snake movie called “Snakes on a Plane” and as the name suggest, it is just that many, many snakes on a plane.
The movie is an [...]

Jeena Kya Hai

Courtesy: Lage Raho Munnabhai

Shaher ki is daud me daud ke karna kya hai?
Jab yehi jeena hai dosto to phir marna kya hai?

The Report Card

A Short Story
===========================
“65.3%” Amit looked at the report card with satisfaction. It was not the best in the whole class. He did not even feature in the top 30s. He was somewhere in the middle, not bad but not good either. A more of an average student but then he never aspired to be among [...]

Ahista Ahista (2006) - Not a typical Love story

I have always wondered during the climax of “Rangeela” as to what happens after Urmila says yes to Aamir Khan. Before the climax, Urmila is never shown to be inclined towards Aamir. She see him as a good friend all along. What does Aamir Khan does after marriage? Still sell tickets in [...]
