angels and demon (movie)

never go to a movie aftr reading a book..haha..u wud never like the movie..dats wat i wud say..the movie just cut short of whole events frm the book simply was a collection of patchy incidents...no CERN...no high speed jets..no maxmillian kohler...it just starts directly with vatican..dialogues also werent that impressive as i felt in da vinci...but yeah the cinematography and the picturesque vatican was worth watching..and black alfa romeos zooming around in the city..it was awsome..but more then dat..there wasnt anywhre that adrenalin rush in the movie...u dont even get to know when the cardinals are killed...and by the interval u just sit a see the movie almost coming to end without anything that makes u jump out of ur seat..there is no where the heroine got any work to do in the movie..sits cosily in the camerlangos office while robert langdons runs around the city with bunch of swiss guards ..and finaly coming to the end...something really boring..nothing coming from the camerlango..a simple suicide without a single dialogue..dats it..dat marks the end...maybe the movie had its own restirction from the censor board but then frankly that was a kill of the novel...but yeah the annhiliation was the best part thanks to the graphics...gave a real life touch to it...

ANGELS AND DEMONS !!!

i had earliar watched the movie da vinci code and with this boring hols going on i had planned watching angels and demon on the day of release itself but a dear friend of mine had order me..yeah AN ORDER NOT TO WATCH UNLESS FINISHING THE BOOK..so i got this 572 pages book to try out a hand...i said this book is too large...wat age u are ..came the reply..so finally..head down into the book...the book starts off with the sci-fi technological stuff like jets with 15 mach...car zooming at 170miles..and then about the highly advanced labs ..but coming to the story it involves the upbringing of age old fight between angels or god and the so called demons,shaitan,satan or scientist...the main plot of the story is the resurfacing of the very old secret society called the illuminati which has come up aftr 400yrs and now put the vatican city and the foundation of chirstianity on the verge of massive callapse using a technolgical substance called the antimatter(refer http://www.cern.ch/) robert langdon is a arts proffesor in harward university and is given the task of following and tracking down the ancient illuminati path in order to save the vatican...all this in one single night...the book gives a very factual description of each and every element and its probably the best way of explaining such things which on the other hand might be realy boring for many..the book was fairly good enough to keep my intrest till the end inspite of being 570 pages odd book but the end somehow dint realy justified the whole 570 pages i read..it somewhre just wasnt getting down dat well for me...u find the camerlengo as the person who has puppeted both the act of GOD and DEMON...the secret end of the camerlengo and also a noble death..somewhre dint go well with me..overall..a good kill of time for this holidays..

the day of cricket!!

the exams had ended...and on the records we just had one single day as holiday between two semesters...sick...but ok fine who cares really..aftr exams it was some masti time..beach main doston ke sath water rugby with coconut..awsome it was..den aftr sunset kabaddi in sand with those high intensity flood lights..it was really cool...but wat abt the match with the seniors man...ohh yeah forgot about that..senior once caught me again in the hostel..."THIS SUNDAY MORNING MATCH BETWWEN UR TEAM AND MINE"...ook sir as u say....par team kahan hai...hardly any idea about it...

SELECTION COMMITTEE: nitin,pavan,siva,sharat.

hehe actualy those were the only members i had in my team so u see we belong to the selection commitee also..we had some star junior players in the hostel...the ones in the spotlight...vidyasagar and manjunath...we went up and requested those guys abt the match

and like sunny deol and sunil shetty of BORDER movie they said...we are with u...phew that makes six now..hav to search 5 more....we had to good players in our class also shreik and raju..so total 8 ready by nw...wat abt the rest...even we dont know lets see tmrw...



THE MORNING::so finaly the sunday came..walking out of the hostel and into the ground wich faced our hostel directly i probably and my team gav the seniors the most weirdest look ..they were just looking at us and laughing...we ll frankly none of us really looked like cricketers..almost evryone in shorts except vidyasagar..he probably looked like the only sportstar in our team..



SECRET SOURCES::the senior had been into the university team in frst year itself and right now his team consist of three good fourth years,3 third years and res 2nd years..was feeling like a scape goat now.

THE TOSS::well we dint have some ex cricketer coming fr the toss rather it was pretty normal one but yeah we walkd all the way to the pitch for the toss..i hav the reputation of losing almost every toss till now..6 out off 7 straight LOSSES...and this 8th one wasnt any surprise also...i lost and we were put to BAT FIRST....

THE MATCH::the match started and we had our openers sharat and raju...we wanted to keep the main star sagar in reserve so that he doesnt faces the tough bowlers..the bowler was vishwa sir 4th year..strong built dark and his head was well above six feet from the ground...our players hehe rather got really tensed...sharat got out in no time..
score update:2 for 1
so finaly sagar came into the crease..every one had his eyes hooked on him..we were resting with the chances of win over him and the seniors eyed him as a hurdle in their victory..
first ball he played a gud defencive stroke..in the pavillion...ohh sorry dint tell u abt this place right..yeah we hav this pavillion or the steps in the ground..an elevation gud enough to give u a nice view of the whole ground..we were sitting one on each step and carefully watching sagar that he does some karishma...but rather he went out sheepishly the very next ball..
score update:5 for 2
the third wicket was to fall was raju and i had sensed it team was in panic mode....it was now me and shriek in the crease..the caption of the opponent team the same senior who had askd fr the game rather considerd himself good enough to feild the offside..standing on the wide mid off postion with no covers...we had a good eye on this area and it was me on the crease now facing the dark tall bowler..a good fuller delivery i simply lofted it on the off side and it ran away to four..phew...something dat made the team cheer for..we had the first four now...it was this partnership between me and shreik that we cud take our score to 39 ....by the tym the confidence level of our team had boosted up and we were expecting a turnaround...shreik had one six also to his name...the seniors were in a tizzy...there captain came into bowling..it were the end overs and i had decided to swing the bat...the ball was a perfect slower one right into the block hole and i was simply TOTALED...the captian went mad was howling and showing sme signs toward me....i cudnt do much but simply laugh because i knew i had done my job well...with the confidence boost up...our team did fairly well in putting up 56 runs on the board fr final 14 overs....dat was the target...
the best thing about our team was bowling...we had great situations where we bowled out a mca playing side fr meagre 32 in a 14over match..and today we had some target to save...it was their captain who was their opener..manjunath bowled a brilliant line and the over just went fr 2 runs...the second over was bowled by shreik...and frst ball with bang the batsman was bowled...it was a thumping start by now...for a moment we forgot that we were juniors..we were roaring..shouting screaming yelling....the seniors were baffeled..the match had generated quite a good spectators also..many from the hostel were now sitting in the grass and enjoying the match bot the seniors and juniors..
manjunath managed another wicket in his next over but the danger man the captain still was at loose on the crease..i came in 5th over as the replacement ..captain to captain face to face...he was a real gud hitter of the bowler and he mostly tried to clear the ball over the long off..first ball i bowled a fuller one and he directly hit it for a six on long off..i was perplexed...wat to bowl the next ball..a short one ? a yorker? a slower one ?...i decided to take the risk a fuller one again..i carefully observed the movement he was giving while i was taking my runnup..he was sticking into the crease and his footwrk nt good...i bowled a perfect tempting ball neither a fuller nor a good length..he took the bait...went with the short hoping to clear it over the boundary but the ball went high into the air giving enough time fr the fielder and he was caught at the baundary...celebrations time.....the team had lost its major batsmen and the team now was on the loosing edge...we carefully bowled our next overs and all the players giving their best....we mange to win with a margin of 9 runs...
a victory!!!
yeah we were the proud juniors who created ripples in the hostel...seniors were beaten in the game of cricket...a matter of shame for some one and a great deal of pride fr others!!!!

desi tadka!!

O Pardesi, O Pardesi

o pardesi, o pardesi mitha sa chadha hai bukhaar
re re main thwaada pardesi
o pardesi, o pardesi, gaanv ki karo beda paar
re re main thwada pardesi
waqt ne kar daala banta??, ib kya hoyega ki a gaye yaar
namm baawari baawari kuchh sa lage
kabi ituk dole, kabhi utt bhaage
o pardesi o pardesi, naino mein sapano hajaar
re re main thwada pardesi
laage mitha mitha chadaya bukhaar
ishq mushkil na chhupe baawade yaar
dil ki takhti pe naam likha tera gehara
kaatil aankhon pe julfon ka saje hai ??
huwa pardesi huwa pardesi mitha sa chadha hai bukhaar
re re main thwada pardesi
o pardesi, o pardesi, gaanv ki karo beda paar
re re main thwada pardesi
re re main thwada pardesi....

as the song goes the movie DEV D was a real change..i mean probably very few movies u cant even say u loved it ,u hated it...its was strange.. frstly it was something realy outoff real life...haha ..just look at the last line...REALY OUT OFF REAL LIFE..well anywaz good job by abhay deol....that guy although mostly limits himself to the punjabi roles see as OYE LUCKY LUCKY OYE and now dis one....but panga kya hai...u rock man...i mean seriously sme real cool stuff..and for the stry of the mvi hmm baap re...no words...the most extreme u can get with a love stry..but yeah songs and cinematography worth praising...the mvi looked real in many parts but altogether felt that the director dragged somethings to great extremes in face of reality..but overall i think it was value fr money!!!
