WORLD ISLANDS..

Yesterday, we were discussing something about the Sharjah Cricket ground and this came up. Ashok explained to me that there is this place called the WORLD ISLANDS in Dubai and indirectly proved once again about my ignorance towards whats happening in the outside world. I never knew anything about it though I vaguely remember seeing it on a news channel(not very sure about it). I think it looks really cool and it would be awesome to own a country but ultimately, its all about money and fame, both of which go hand in hand. All this put aside, WORLD ISLANDS in DUBAI look stunningly good and the google images uploaded on the web add to its glory.

Cut the crap!

People are opportunistic and selfish. By saying that, I dont include the few exceptions out there. Back to the majority of the people who think only about themselves. I know that we are all human and we have our own flaws to live with. But most people pretend to be nice and sweet to someone only to get their work done. Once their job is done, they would have disappeared off the face of the earth. The next time they make an appearance would be when they are in need of something. Unmindful of the fact that they are no longer looked upon with respect or love, they continue the sugary sweet talks once again to assure that their necessity is taken care of by the person who offers help. My point is- "Its ok to talk to someone only when there is a reason/help is needed but there is no need for those generous shameless words of love and care if those aren't coming from the bottom of the heart."
P.S. I surprised myself by writing this because it has been a long time since any of the above mentioned incidents or incidents similar to that happened in my life. But just felt like blogging about it.[:D]

Finally watched SM

Finally watched the Oscar(s) winning movie Slumdog Millionaire.Things I liked the most about the movie:
1. Childhood days of Jamal and his bro. The picturisation was so realistic and the kids did a wonderful job of what was expected out of them.
2. Jamal's narration of how he knew the answers for each of the questions(ya..i know, thats what the movie is all about!!):)
3. Recognition of ARR's music at the Oscars finally.(its better late than never)

Not-so likeable things abt SM:

1. Too much of hype.
2. And more hype.
3. ARR's first movie was "Roja". Why was there no recognition of his skills and musical talents since his entry into the musical arena? Does it mean that his compositions for SM tops all of his works till now?I really dont think so!!
