Take shit, earn monies


"Take shit, earn monies", this is exactly what is happening in Big Brother. Media is going frenzy unnecessarily. Open any daily, you get loads and loads of writings on racism and Shilpa Shetty. The actress whose career was almost vanishing, suddenly is in news in Britain. Have people become jobless all of a sudden? We all know how shows like Big Brother works. I have seen the desi version "Bigg Boss". No one ever bothered when inmates in Big Boss commented on Rakhi Sawant's upbringing, her clothes, her talking style. The whites comment on Shilpa's cooking, call her a dog and talk about her eating with hands and everyone talks about racist attacks.

Whats wrong with the media and people. We all know that Shilpa Shetty has been given a whopping 3 crore for this drama. For all we care this entire thing must have been scripted. The Shetty babe wept, did she not know the format of the game. Could she not give them a piece of her mind. If someone called you a dog, do u really become that. She has the option of walking out of the game if she wants. Is so much of commotion over a TV show warranted? We really need a life, Big Brother is just a game, there is life after that.

Will Mani's Guru work?


I switch on FM 98.3 and i hear Mayya Mayya... I open some filmy sites i see banners, pictures and video clippings of Maniratnam's Guru. This year's first biggy Guru will hit screens this friday. Maniratnam, this maverick directors films are quite impressive. Will Guru work? Million dollar question. I listened to the songs, Mayya Mayya and Tere Bina were good, Rest were ones that could be forgotten easily.


Saw the promo on a filmy site. Gurukanth Desai is after money, he wants to make it big, hook or crook. Just a couple of minutes ago i read a report which said that Amitabh Bachchan cried seeing his son's performance. Both father-son are moved to tears at each others performance. Mutual tears society, shall we say. Trade pundits say that this film will have Abhishek's best performance. My fingers are crossed for him.


Has Aishwarya forgotten dancing? After seeing that tremendous energy in Dhoom 2, she looks so tired in Guru. She looked gorgeous in umrao Jaan. In Guru she looks like a pucca amma. Abhishek and Aish make a good pair, but thier onscreen chemistry is zero.


Mallika's dance i am sure will entrall all. That Belly dance in Mayya Mayya is great. the verdict will be out tommorow. Lets see if Mani Ratnam's Guru, will be the first hit film of the year.
