Has any one of you been ever so lucky to get free passes to a first day first show of an eagerly awaited movie….?? Well..we did..and I don’t know if I shld be happy abt that ..
Kabhi Alvida na Kahna…!! a totally westwernized desi movie…and even though it was free…for the first time..we felt watching movies was even an expense of our time… and movie freaks such as us.. feeling this way..isn’t considered to be normal…. 
Every character in this movie had an affair…at one time or an another…and Amitabh had the best role at that …
One hilarious scene goes like this…
We get see this broken bed..and Abhishek ask’s his dad ..how it happened…Amitabh ( holding a blonde babe in his arms…) Son …you will soon get married…I will eduacte you..as to how this can be done….
God…I suppose being a superstar…one thinks they can get away with almost anything…
And hubby dearest didn’t leave one chance at criticising KANK ( he pronounces it as ” KUNK”…rhyming with SKUNK…just to express himself better … )
For those of you..who are clever to wait for reviews to decide on watching a movie…well…I suggest you rather count sheep and go to bed..and if u still decide to find out urself…then i suppose it wldnt even take u 3 1/2 minutes of the 31/2 hour movie…to realise u made a big big mistake…
Phony Phone calls….

Have you ever had these phone calls where you were actually told you either won a million dollars lottery, or that you have a distant aunt of yours who recently passed away, and has left you a fortune( and ofcourse..her cat too… ). Sounds kindda similar to the spam e-mails we get. I suppose now people have become really jobless that they actually calling all the listed numbers just hoping to get lucky with someone’s bank account info.
Few days ago, I got lucky too( to be considered dumb enough for this crap..). Nope it wasn’t the aunt nor was it the lottery. But it was actually the government of US wanting to give me Grant for 5000 $. It went like…..
Caller: (ina Desi voice..which I don’t fail to note..)Hello Ma’am , we are pleased to inform you that the govt. Of US has decided to give you a grant for 5000$.
Me: Huh!! Grant…whats a grant?? And why me??? I mean I am sure I didn’t tell anyone I needed money…( not that I would not accept money if I didn’t ask for it… ) Caller: Well Ma’am, you might have been paying your taxes on time for the past few years, so the Govt. wants to show its appreciation.. Me: Duh!! Is it … ( by now I am sure this guy has either gotten the wrong number, or talking crap…since I had been in the US only 6 months..and obviously haven’t yet gone thru a single Tax cycle yet….) Caller: Give me your account details…so that we can transfer the amount…Me: ( pretending to believe the crap….) I don’t have an accnt..wld u do with my husband’s accnt details instead… Caller: Just a sec ma’am, while I consult with my supervisor…Then he assumes he has put me on hold… Caller: (to his supervisor..) Abe!!! is ke pass account details nahi hain..kya kare…iske husband ka lele kya…Supervisor: Are nahi be…bol de ki kal call kar lenge…husband se baat karne… He gets back on line with me and lets me know that he will call and take my hubby’s details himself..i agree while trying to control my laughter… I haven’t yet heard from him after that …but hope to real soon…Such calls help keep the comedy section of my life alive…
