An Ideal World

I started imagining an ideal world, 
Where people don't have their vision blurred, 

A world where gender equality prevail, 
And not for a good Constitution avail, 

A world where the youth have a motive, 
And not interrupted by some fake votives, 

A world where caste/religion is a choice,
And not the mob mentality people's noise, 

A world where emotional health of a person really matters, 
And not the intensity at which that person shatters, 

A world where judging someone is crucial enough to be stopped, 
And not just a thing of knowledge every human being ever dropped, 

A world where deserving respect is precise, 
And not a thing to be gained at any Price, 

So yeah, I dreamt of an ideal world, 
But the irony is that I am unideal and immature enough to even fit and dream of an ideal world!!

Ginny Weds Sunny (2020) Review

 GENRE- Romance, Comedy

 

Streaming On- Netflix

 

Language- Hindi

 

CAST- Vikrant Massey, Yami Gautam,  

 

MUSIC- Payal Dev, Jaan Nisar Leone.

 

Directed by- Puneet Khanna

 

Release Date- 9 October 2020.

Plot- The film follows a headstrong Ginny who meets Sunny for an arranged marriage, but turns him down, and then shows how Sunny teams up with Ginny’s mother to win her heart.

 

Review- Rom-com movies are always a safer bet and if done right it has high scope of working well as it caters large audience.

Ginny weds Sunny is a cute, sweet passable rom com. Concept of the movie is nothing new to the mainstream millennials, where a guy wants to marry a girl and tries his luck to impress her but then comes a person and all hell breaks loose. The movie has elements which a typical bollywood lover would appreciate, good looking actors, sweet romance, cute humour and some bollywood music numbers to love.

The movie flows swiftly but the writing is not very good. The events are not well written which makes the overall experience just OKAYISH. The movie is backed up by a brilliant lead pair, Vikrant and Yami who give brilliant performances which makes the movie a one time watchable. The Supporting cast is good as well.

 

PROs-

l Vikrant+ Yami+Bollywood Numbers+ Cute Humor= Binge worthy.  

 

FINAL RATING-  6/10

.

VERDICT-  Ginny Weds Sunny has its share of fun and can make for a decent weekend watch. Give it a try!!

Music is the sound of life

 Once a person asked me how is music a sound of life?

I smiled and replied,

“Music is the sound of clouds when it rains,
Music is the sound of heart when it pains.
Music is the sound of a river when it flows,
Music is sound of a baby when he grows.

Music is the sound of a bird when it chirps,
An irritating music comes when a person burps.
Music is when the wind blows,
Music is also the sound made by the crows.

Music is when you laugh out loud,
Music is also when you hear thundering of the cloud.
Music can also be found in a person who snores,
Music can also be there when a lion roars.

Music is there in each and every creation of God,
Perhaps this is the reason they say- Music is nothing but the God.
Music can change according to a certain situation,
But Nature’s music never changes in any condition.

That is why respect the natural music that you hear,
I hope now you have found all your answers, right My dear?

REVIEW 10 MISSING (2018)

 GENRE- Thriller, Suspense, Drama

 

Streaming On- Amazon Prime Video

 

Language- Hindi

 

CAST- Tabu, Manoj Bajpayee, Anu Kapoor  

 

Directed by- Mukul Abhyankar

Music- M.M.Kreem

 

Release Date- 6th April, 2018.

Plot- Sushant and Aparna are on a vacation in Mauritius, but things take a turn for the worse when their daughter, Titli, goes missing. 

Review- Manoj Bajpayee is absolutely brilliant as an opportunistic and philandering womanizer in Mukul Abhyankar's ambitious psychological drama Missing that is largely led by Tabu. Hers is the main character here, who steals focus from her audience as this worried mother of a young girl named Titli, who goes missing later in the film. Missing narrates the story of these three characters as Annu Kapoor, playing an Indian cop in Mauritious, heads the investigation of the missing child.

Abhyankar's writing is tight and you are going to be hooked since the first frame itself. Apart from the gradual unfolding of events, and thereby the truth, there's an air of suspense throughout the 120-minute running time as you try to predict what will happen with the characters. Sometimes funny but always thrilling, Missing works because of writer-director Abhyankar's solid direction and execution. Bajpayee shines better than Tabu, although it is the joint effort by the entire cast that makes this more worthwhile. I am also impressed by the score by M M Kreem, which compensates the issues I have with the plot and the several holes in it.

But I have issues when at times the music is so loud that it is difficult to hear the dialog.

Even if you regard these issues as problematic, the unexpected climax and the consequences of all the proceedings makes Missing an above average thriller.

 

PROs-

l Tabu + Manoj Bajpayee = Tabahi (in a good way)  

 

FINAL RATING-  7/10

.

VERDICT-  They hardly make such films in Bollywood, so it is important for us to take note and appreciate when they do. Catch it when you can.

BIGG BOSS 14 Day 16 Review

The Monday episode of Bigg Boss 14 starts off with Dabangg host Salman Khan welcoming everyone to Somvaar Ka Vaar.

 

He reminds about the twist of giving freshers the power to eliminate one from the bottom three - Shehzad Deol, Jaan Sanu, and Abhinav Shukla. Salman reveals that after the revelation, the atmosphere in the BB 14 house heated up.

 

Shehzad Deol, who is one of the bottom three contestants this week, tells everyone that I have been totally deserving since day 1. Eijaz Khan begs to differ and, the two get into a verbal fight, Nikki also tells Shehzad that he only sleeps and pollutes the house so he should be thrown out of bigg boss. Nishant, Eijaz, Pavitra, Rubina, Abhinav, and Jasmin back Shehzad. On the other hand Nishant, Nikki and Rahul back Jaan, while Jasmin and Rubina suggest him to play his game.

 

While Jaan and Shehzad try to convince the freshers, Abhinav takes a step back and asks everyone to take a fair and wise decision.

 

Salman Khan interacts with the inmates virtually and ask for their opinion.

 

Pavitra takes Jaan's name at first but then changes her vote and, takes Shehzad's name instead.

Shehzad names Jaan.

Jasmin takes Jaan's name.

Rubina and Abhinav also take Jaan's name.

Jaan names Abhinav.

Nikki and Rahul also name Abhinav.

Nishant names Abhinav.

Eijaz names Shehzad.

 

Since there is a draw (tie) between Abhinav and Jaan, the seniors get involved in the task and pick one name among the three for eliminations this week. Gauahar and Hina take Shehzad's name for eviction and reveal that he has been quite lost this week. So, the final decision goes to Sidharth, as all bottom 3 contestants get equal no. of votes. Initially, Sidharth says that he doesn't think that anyone of them deserves to go this week. But, when Salman prods him to take one name, he also votes against Shehzad. 

 

Ultimately, Shehzad gets five votes against him and becomes the highest voted fresher for elimination. However, later, Salman announces a 'new twist.' Salman tells Shehzad 'I'm sorry, apka game over ho chuka hai,' but he will not leave the house until further notice by Bigg Boss. Clearing Shehzad's confusion, Salman reveals that he will stay as a  'gayab' (invisible) housemate, wherein he will do all the chores, but will not participate in the house decisions and matters. Then Rahul brings attire from the storeroom, and Salman unveils that  Shehzad now is a ' 100% not confirmed' contestant of BB 14.

 

Next there is a task between the freshers wherein they have to select another fresher who in their opinion is incapable of being CONFIRMED.

 

Nishant names Abhinav.

Rahul takes Abhinav's name,

Nikki also names Abhinav.

Jaan names Abhinav.

Abhinav takes Rahul's name.

Rubina names Rahul.

Jasmin takes Eijaz's name.

Pavitra names Jaan,

 

Salman questions Pavitra about being confused in her decision, and she clarifies her stance. However, Salman does not buy Pavitra's clarification and states that she is baffled. 

Salman then pulls Pavitra's leg for complaining about not having a decent guy in the BB 14 house. The host then gives her a task to rate the men of the house from 10 points. Rubina then shares that Pavitra had confessed about wanting to go on a date with Abhinav if he was not married. The host shares that a wild-card contestant is going to be introduced, but brings a twist by welcoming a mannequin. 

 

Later, the caller of the week asks a question to Pavitra, wherein he points out her confusing personality. Pavitra clarifies her stance in front of Salman, and he suggests her to put her point of view firmly. Salman also highlights how Pavitra does not battle with the opposite team during tasks but rather fights with her own team.

 

Salman then asks gives a task to the seniors, wherein they have to choose one fresher from a pair, who they want to see ahead in the BB 14 game. The first pair to come up is Eijaz and Rubina. Sidharth picks Eijaz for being entertaining and tags Rubina selectively dumb. However, Hina differs from Sid's views and says that Rubina is more entertaining that Eijaz. Gauahar seconds Hina's views and chooses Rubina. 

 

Next up are Pavitra and Jasmin, and Salman asks the seniors to have 'aapsi sehmati.' Hina and Sidharth pick Pavitra, while Gauahar chooses Jasmin, but later changes her decisions. Later, Jaan and Nishant stand each other. Sidharth picks Jaan. Gauahar disagrees with Sidharth but later chooses Jaan. Hina seconds Gauahar's decision and picks Jaan. 

 

Lastly, we have,  Abhinav vs Rahul, Gauahar chooses Rahul, while Hina goes with Abhinav and Sidharth agrees with Hina's choice. However, Gauahar disapproves of Hina, and Sid's decision, but gives in to their call for 'aapsi sehamati.' According to the seniors, they want to see Rubina, Abhinav, Jaan, and Pavitra in the BB 14 game ahead. 

 

After the seniors' task, Salman announces a 'big' opportunity for the freshers. He reveals that in the upcoming two days it will be clear who will be in the game, and who will be out. Salman shares that seniors will play a huge role in the same, as it is about being confirmed or getting their game over. Salman then asks the freshers to choose one senior, and decide in whose team they want to be - Hina, Sidharth, or Gauahar, as 'ab scene paltega.' 

 

Eijaz and Nikki take Sidharth's name.

Nishant takes Hina's name. He says that Siddharth is mentally strong and practical whereas Gauhar is a sweet and a kind person and Hina is the combination of both.

Rahul wants to go to Gauhar's team. According to him, his approach of thinking is quite similar to Gauhar so, he decides to choose her.

Jaan also names Gauhar.

Abhinav and Rubina name Hina. Rubina says that she mirrors her point of view with Hina.

According to Jasmin, Siddharth is her friend and she knows that he would be blunt to her and guide her well. But he is practically and mentally very strong, so she chooses Hina because she can guide her in a simpler way.

Lastly, Pavitra says that she would like to follow the footprints of Siddharth.

Shehzad is not a part of the decision as he is ‘100% NOT CONFIRMED’.

 

Later in the night, Pavitra and Shehzad indulge in the conversation over the eviction task, as the latter expresses his disappointment with Eijaz for deceiving him. Shehzad claims that Eijaz will do anything for the game is not loyal to anyone, and he will try to bring out his real personality. Pavitra says that Eijaz is following somebody's footsteps, but Shehzad says that he will get cornered in two days. The episode ends with Salman claiming that now the dynamics of the house will change as these three teams have been formed. 

HERO OF THE DAY- SALMAN KHAN, as it was a weekend.

VILLIAN OF THE DAY- PAVITRA, she flipped frequently.

MR INDIA- No one, As it was a weekend.

 

VERDICT- It would be fun to watch the seniors fight for their team. Eventually it is a fight between the ex-contestants of BiggBoss.

Bigg Boss Day 15

 The episode begins with Salman Khan entering the stage in his 'swag' and greeting the audience. He reveals that the makers informed him that the Weekend Ka Vaar will happen on Sunday and Monday this time, so he will be there tomorrow (October 19, 2020) also at 10 pm. He talks about how the contestants are finally actively participating, especially Jasmin and Rahul.

 

Not only this but how groups have been formed in the BB 14 house. The host also says that it is clear that Rubina and Nikki are totally against each other. Later, Salman shares that the contestants were given a task, where they had to decide 'whose mind is filled with more garbage - Nikki or Rubina?' The Shakti actress is then seen informing the other housemates that she does not approve of the task, and is also not going to be a part of it, as she does not have clothes to dress up. While others try to convince Rubina, she is adamant about her decision.

 

Gauahar tries to explain to Rubina that this is the actual motive of the game, but the latter responds saying that she has a 'problem' with the connotation by Bigg Boss. Amidst the discussions among contestants, Salman enters the BB 14 house through the screens, leaving everyone surprised. Immediately, Salman taunts Rubina and states that she is failing in the game. He then traces Rubina's journey and points out where she went wrong.

 

Salman advises Rubina that her competition is with the other contestants, not Bigg Boss himself, and by her behaviour it is evident that she has issues with the rules and regulations. While Rubina tries to clarify her stance, Salman highlights her fault to deny doing the task. Rubina shares that she found the task insulting, but Salman points out that she took it for granted. Later, Gauahar jumps in the conversation saying that contenders did have problems in the past also, but nobody outrightly has 'refused' to participate in a task. Salman, Siddharth and Hina second Gauahar's views. Hina claims that if Rubina thinks that way, then she is in the 'wrong' show. 

 

Salman then lightens up the mood and jokes about Abhinav being Rubina's 'samaan.' He also advises Rubina to be careful, and not indulge in such discussions with him as he is not a contestant of the house. Rubina shares that she found the title 'kachra' derogatory, while Salman explains that the names are given for entertainment purposes. The discussion goes, and Rubina states that she did not expect Salman to 'scold' her for keeping her point of view. Salman clarifies saying that he is not scolding her, but explaining things to her respectfully, as it will backfire her in the long run. 

 

After a stretched debate, Salman finally manages to convince Rubina that her decision to back out from the task was completely wrong, and he is just helping her out by showing the right path. Later, Rubina understands Salman's POV and agrees to do the task. Nikki and Rubina then prep up for the task. Eijaz, Rahul, Nishant, Jaan, and Pavitra target Rubina, as they point out her mistakes.  Abhinav, Jasmin, and Shehzad attack Nikki for her bad behaviour of abusing, showing others inferior, and having an ego as they fill her garbage bin. 

 

Salman then pokes fun at Rubina saying that her strategy is to irritate others - baal ki khaal nikalna. The host then tells Rubina that she was fabulous throughout the week, but she messed up things with her refusal today. Later, Salman talks to Nikki about the previous days' task (confirmed fresher task) wherein she reveals that she does not agree with Jasmin and Abhinav's points. Salman then asks Nikki about her abusing contestants.

 

While Shehzad tells that Nikki abuses a lot, Salman highlights him using the wrong word. Salman clarifies that they are here to sort out all the matter, and not show them as bad people to the world.

 

Later, Salman jumps to Jaan and taunts him for being the most confused contestant. Salman questions Jaan about the rumours about being influenced by others.  He then pokes fun at the young singer's behaviour. Then, Salman questions Jaan about his camaraderie with Nikki. Jaan shares that while Nishant was his first friend, Nikki became his second friend and he is close to her. 

 

Jaan also chooses to hold Nikki's hand and hug her when given a choice by Salman. The host then reveals that there is a hashtag spreading on social media 'Tambora' where people are shipping for Tamboli and Rahul. Nikki gets into a war of words with Jaan for not showing her the right direction as a 'good friend.'  Salman then praises Nikki for playing her own game as she has become the talk of the town, and the week was exciting because of her.

 

Salman then reveals that Jasmin is looking 'real' in the house, and praises her for showing her 'actual personality.' Jasmin talks about her experience and sheds tears again while sharing how she felt bad as Nikki abused her. Salman suggests Jasmin to play her game the way she is right, as it will take her a long way. 

 

Next, Salman also praises Rahul for showing a positive turnaround in his personality. Salman lauds Rahul for entertaining everyone. Salman then pokes fun at housemates. He shows some clips of Abhinav and his unusual conversations in the BB 14 house, leaving everyone in splits. Next, Salman introduces the 'katghara' (witness box) and asks contestants to openly reveal their problems with the person standing in witness. 

 

The task begins with Rubina as Eijaz accuses her of not being welcoming towards him, despite many efforts. Rubina admits that she has a personal problem with him, for having double-faced. Further, Rubina explains that she feels that Eijaz will flip at any moment. She takes a stand for hubby Abhinav and slams Eijaz for provoking them. 

 

Next, Pavitra takes over the witness box as Rubina talks about her issues against her. Rubina accuses Pavitra of trying to digress her and Abhinav, as she points out the debate she had a day before. Pavitra clarifies her stance, and Salman seconds her views. Hina and Gauahar also tell Rubina that she has to play individually and let Abhinav also play individually. 

 

Rahul is the next contestant in the witness box, as Rubina shares her issues with him. They discuss the style task, where Rahul gave her the 'confused' task. Rahul tries to clarify the misunderstanding. Hina, Sidharth, and Salman get bored with Rubina's baseless arguments and stretching things unnecessarily.

Bigg Boss REVIEW Day 14

 Today’s episode began with the song Tattad Tattad from Ranveer Singh starrer Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram Leela. Soon, there was a conversation, between Rahul, Gauhar and Siddharth over chopping duty in the kitchen. While Rubina and Abhinav were adamant about chopping being a different duty from cooking, Sidharth Shukla and Gauahar Khan were adamant that whoever is cooking will chop the vegetables as well; to which Rubina said that it is unfair for two people to chop vegetables for 13 housemates. The discussion got ugly when the entire house was against Rubina and Abhinav.  Gauahar tried to intervene, but it was all in vain.

 

After a heated argument, Rubina and Abhinav agreed with the seniors and announced that chopping will be a part of cooking. Later, Hina and Gauahar were seen discussing the confusion over duties. Meanwhile, Jaan complained to Nikki about Rubina not doing the dishes. Everyone in the house was discussing about the argument which took place in the morning. Jasmin Bhasin, in a conversation with Shehzaad, was seen criticizing Nikki for her proud nature and spoke about the way she performed in the bouncy task. Kitchen once again becomes a point of argument and this time between Rahul and Pavitra. The latter was irked with the former Indian Idol singer who, apparently, had jumped into her conversation with Jaan.

 

Soon, they got into a heated war of words and Nishant tried to pacify Rahul. Later, Jaan, Nishant and Rahul kept secret names for Jasmin and Pavitra to communicate among themselves. Then the trio discussed Nikki’s nature and how she was a little biased towards them during the garden task. Nishant and Rahul asked Jaan to be careful of Nikki and not to follow her blindly. Soon, Bigg Boss 14 witnessed its first luxury budget, wherein Rahul and Jaan will be competing in busking. In this task, Rahul and Jaan were asked to perform live and gain listeners. The one with the maximum audience was supposed to be announced as the winner of the luxury budget hamper which he can share with four freshers in the house. It was an interesting competition with Rahul and Jaan gave each other a tough fight. Interestingly, Jaan confessed his feeling for Nikki during the task as he dedicated the song ‘Tujhe Dekha Toh Ye Jana Sanam’ to her. Eventually, Jaan won the task as he has the maximum number of people in the audience and gets a luxury budget hamper. He shared it with Eijaz, Shehzaad, Nikki and Nishant.

 

Bigg Boss asked the freshers to decide if Nikki should continue to be a confirmed contestant or she should be demoted as TBC. The decision was supposed to be made unanimously. While Rahul supported Nikki, Jaan and Nishant surprised everyone after she called out the lady for losing her value and friends and called her arrogant. However, Jaan and Nishant agreed that she can continue to be the confirmed contestant. Rubina and Abhinav felt Nikki should not be a confirmed contestant anymore and had their own reasons for the same, but Nikki defended herself.

Jasmin stated that Nikki has been changing her personality every day and felt that she doesn’t deserve to be a confirmed contestant. However, this sparked an argument between the two. Shehzaad called Nikki and opportunist and wanted her to be demoted. Pavitra had a piece of advice for Nikki to be careful for her words and supported her to be a confirmed contestant. Even Eijaz came out in Nikki’s support for being true to her personality. Rubina stood strongly against Nikki’s confirmed status and explained her point on why she should be demoted to TBC. However, Nishant supported Nikki and got into an argument with Rubina especially over Nikki’s performance during the immunity task. Rubina continued to convince other contestants her point and asked them not to play on both sides. She asked everyone to voice their true opinion and individuality. Meanwhile, Hina and Gauahar were quite impressed with Rubina’s strong opinions and stated that they feel the tv actress has the potential to be a BB14 winner.

 

On the other hand, Nikki tried to mend ways with Rubina and Abhinav and requested them to give her another chance with confirmed status. While the freshers failed to reach a unanimous decision, Bigg Boss announced that Nikki will continue to be a confirmed contestant. While Nikki was elated, she expressed her disappointment towards Nishant for not pointing out her weak points in the beginning itself instead of saying it during the task. Meanwhile, Jaan also gets into an argument with Eijaz for feeling that he has been under Nikki’s influence.

 

Hina and Gauahar praised Rubina for strongly putting forward her point of view and expressed disappointment towards others who tried playing safe. They were even seen discussing Nikki’s game but soon Pavitra intervenes and calls Nikki a sweet person. While Gauahar supports her, this surprises Abhinav and Rubina and they are surprised about how Nikki has changed her personality for the game.

 

Meanwhile, Nikki continued to express her disappointment towards Nishant and Jaan for not guiding her. But the two men had their own reasons which they tried explaining to her. Even Jaan also explained how he doesn’t like the way she demeans her. Irked with his explanation, Nikki decides not to be friends with Jaan. On the other hand, Rahul and Pavitra were seen burying the hatchet.

 

HERO OF THE DAY- According to me, the Hero of the day was Rubina. The way she put her points be it in the kitchen scene or Nikki’s case, that was amazing. Rightly, as Hina said- We have a winner of BB14. (Its too early to say so)

 

VILLIAN OF THE DAY- In yesterday’s episode, there was no villian as such; but Rahul did prove that he can play SHAKUNI MAMA or NARAD MUNI in any mythological show. I am saying this because today it was Rahul who started the chopping drama, then it was Rahul who for no specific reason had an ugly argument with Pavitra.

 

DOUBLE DHOLKI- There are 3 double dholkis today. JAAN, NISHANT and EIJAZ. The 3 today told that Nikki has become arrogant after she got the tag of a CONFIRMED contestant but they have always supported her.

 

MR. INDIA- Yesterday all were seen doing something or the other. Be it Shehzaad gossiping with Jasmin against Nikki, or dancing to Jaan’s songs. So, basically there is no MR INDIA.

 

Overall Verdict for Yesterday’s episode- It was a powerpack episode. Again the seniors were seen doing stuffs. The freshers are still unable to open up.
