the Kite runner

  • If we come to sleep

We are His drowsy ones.

And if we come to wake We are in His hands.

If we come to weeping, We are His cloud full of raindrops.

And if we come to laughing, We are His lightning in that moment.

If we come to anger and battle, It is the reflection of His wrath.

And if we come to peace and pardon, It is the reflection of His love.

Who are we in this complicated world?

these few lines from the movie impressed me a lot..an awesome movie with a lot of self-thinking to do while watching it.

In Praise of Laziness

In Praise of Laziness is quirky, funny, delightfully shocking, and playfully profound. I hope you enjoy viewing it.To view, please click here www.lazyway.net/movie.

For the maximum experience:

1. Watch until after the credits for a surprise ending.
2. Turn up the sound. The music specially composed for this video is superb.
3. If you have a fast computer, the icon in the lower right-hand corner (next to the speaker icon) expands the video to full screen.

Let me know how you like it.

Cassini's Division

a great Kolkata based original alternative rock band which fuses hip hop music with heavy rock music. this fusion of pop music with rock makes them more original and innovative. though all their songs seem to be good but my favorite are Story Of My Life and Popp'in It . For further info refer to this..http://www.cassinisdivision.com/band.html.

Hangover: a must watch

A Las Vegas-set comedy centered around three groomsmen who lose their about-to-be-wed buddy during their drunken misadventures, then must retrace their steps in order to find him. This movie deserves praise for the comic timing and wholesome entertainment offered. i just managed to watch the cam rip somehow but waiting for the DVDRip to watch it again.

not worth the watch..

the other day a bunch of us made it to wave (east end mall) to watch the movie Transformers : Revenge of the fallen. it was again a futile attempt this summer to watch some terrific piece of work from hollywood . this summer witnessed the release of great budget movies like Harry potter and the half blood prince ,X-men:Wulverine,Transformers,Terminator Salvation, but all of them turned out to be average movies that lacked some ingredients to make them a totally engrossing affair. with the likes of Hangover and Public Enemies not making it to our multiplexes the only thing we are left to watch is these overhyped movies.

tunde and prakash kulfi...



What is the first thought that comes to your mind when you hear the word "LUCKNOW" ? the response of any Indian would be "Nawabs" and "Kababs". The famous and old Tunde Kababs is a "Kabab Shop" in Aminabad,Lucknow. Its a pilgrimage for food lovers.Lucknow is proud of its Kebabs. The Kakori Kebabs, Galawat ke Kebabs, Shami Kebabs, Boti Kebabs, Patili-ke-Kebabs, Ghutwa Kebabs and Seekh Kebabs are some of the others among the known varieties.The famous Tunda Kebab is so named because it was a specialty of an one-armed chef .The uniqueness of this kebab is the masala (home made spices)which is a zealously guarded family secret and prepared by women in the family. It is said to incorporate 160 spices.
well after savouring the taste of the kebabs who would like to miss on the kulfi that is served just opposite the tundey kababi shop. believe me both these cuisines serve as a perfect combo for a hungry stomach.
