Welcome to Sajjanpur

Welcome to Sajjanpur, a film by Shyam Benegal, is one of those films which challenges the bollywood style of film making where unbelievable and unimaginable events take place.

This film is a comedy which will make you laugh out your hearts. Unlike bollywood movies, every Indian can some or the other way relate to leastwise one character or an event that takes place in the film and that's why the film would be very much liked. A very down to earth, this is a must watch if you have come from a village and now become a big person.

The movie was more character based and not a story based. All the actors in the film have played a role more than they were expected and that's why the film is absolutely splendid. The only thing that wasn't required in the film, I felt was the song sequence which could have been easily done away with.

A very down to earth, this is a must watch if you have come from a village and now become a big person. Enjoy.

P.S: You got to understand hindi properly before watching the movie

Mumbai Meri Jaan


Mumbai Meri Jaan is an amazing movie. Words can't the movie. It talk's about how the July 11th train blasts in Mumbai affected different people in different ways.

The acting in simply inexpressibly good especially the main characters like Irfan Khan(who has very less dialogues in the film but still show brilliant visual language skills), Kay Kay Menon(amazingly done), Paresh Rawal(I acctualy felt like he was a police constable), Mahadevan and Soha Ali Khan.

The camera work also was awesomly done.

The story line is very heart touching and the acting acctually makes you feel very emotinal.

The only thing I din't like was the Visual effects they had given for the blast sequence which felt very fake.

The movie is a bit slow but it more than worth watching. If you are a film lover and an Indian by heart then you would'nt miss such an movie.

Why are Indian Athletes against cricket in Olympics?

While selling of the old newspapers in the afternoon, I came across this article which had many Indian Athletes against cricket entering the Olympics.

Why shouldn’t be the cricket be in the Olympics?

The replies from these athletes were that if cricket entered into the Olympics then their sport will be even more deteriorated.

I don’t understand how is it going to help these athletes who go to the Olympics, try their level best and still don’t find place in the medals list, have a problem with or without cricket being in the Olympics.

Why is that they only think about it from the Indian Community point of view.

What about the other cricket loving nations? Don’t the cricketers from different nations want to be a part of the biggest ever and most prestigious sport and games event?

And even if you take it from the Indian Community context also, the government is giving the same amount of support to each and every sport. It is the BCCI, which is the Indian Cricket Board, which is taking the initiative to flourish the sport. And up till the achievement of the World Cup in 1983, Cricket in India was considered to be the same as all sports and games in the nation.

Because of its increase of popularity in the nation, do the athletes think that if cricket enters into the Olympics it would lower their status in the society?

I don’t think so.

The Indian Cricketing Season

There’s been lot of cricket going on this season and fortunately the Indian Cricket Team get a month’s break before the hosting a test series against the world champs, Australia.


What do the cricketer’s do during this time?

No, they don’t spend their precious little time with their families nor do they spend time holidaying with loved ones on a paradise.


They do the unwanted.

The make themselves available for the domestic circuit of the game.


I have to ask them this question. Haven’t they had enough cricket already?

I mean this season started of with the Asia Cup where the played the start brilliantly and end up losing very, very badly in the final against the Sri Lankan’s and fell like bowling pins against a newcomer called Ajanta Mendis. Then they move on to a tour to Sri Lanka where they played a test and ODI series. Te first test, they looked out of place but came back pretty strongly in the second test. The third one was well contested I must say but victory was with Sri Lanka.

Then followed an ODI series in and against Sri Lanka where the Indians convincingly beat the home team by nullifying the home teams’ brilliant bowling attack.


During all this time they were always complaining for lack in rest. Now they get one and can’t make full use of it and go back and play the sport.


C’mon, it’s just a game.
