Cricket Sledging – Australians feeling the heat now!
October 16th, 2007

Indians especially seniors were never involved in sledging. Although Sourav Ganguly showed some aggression but with in a smile on his face and Waugh's subsequent irritation and complaints were the reaction of a man. Apart from talent and Dad's army(average of 30 years), sledging had always been the mantra of Aussie's success. In spite of getting some witty replies in the past they never changed themselves and always been in front to wind up the opposition by all possible means including swearing and personal remarks. But in this series(Aussie's in India, 2007) they are getting frustrated and annoyed on being at the receiving end of sledging. Sreesanth has managed to take the sledging spotlight away from its most skilled practitioners.
Frustrated and annoyed, Aussies are ...
Jhalak Dikhla Jaa 2 – Tapur is out!
October 15th, 2007

I was completely speechless and shocked when Tapur’s name was announced to leave the show. I said to myself, it can’t be happening there is definitely something wrong. And thought soon Mona will rectify her mistake by asking Mika to leave the show. But sadly Tapur was the one to go. I must say Mika’s appeal or you can say dhamaki to all his punjadi’s was worth giving, he survived the eviction. And for Tapur’s Bengali audience, I think they all were too busy voting
Aneek Dhar of SaReGaMaPa Final 2007. Once again it is
proved that popularity of the contestant counts and not the hard-work they put in. The Friday night was full of Cha-cha-cha and Disco theme. Contestants ...
Week 4 of Nach Baliye 3 – Pooja and Rakhi were Hot!
October 14th, 2007

I am sad…..Jodi No. 5 Vikas and Amita Sethi are out, whereas if you go through the
score chart you will find that Vikas and Amita has always scored more than Karan Patel and Amita Chandekar in each and every round. This shows that popularity counts and not the talent and efforts that couples put in to their performances. Well, we are in week 4 of Nach Baliye 3 and it was a Touch Baliye theme for the couples to perform. Means the couples should be touching each-other throughout their dance act. Vidya Balan and Shiney Ahuja were the guest of this week, of-course! promoting their film Bhool Bhulaiyaa and they were also allowed to judge the couples. So ...

The Sun has

Bollywood into Websites and Blogs
October 9th, 2007

Read an article in rediff.com today, about Aamir Khan launching his
website tomorrow. But same time he has stopped writing for his blog and had said “
Alvida†to all his readers, fans and friends that he made during his bloging period. It was nice to see busy actor sharing his daily experience with all his fans, felt like he is one of us and not a big super star. Though his blog was just about his films but still….
Updates:
As I was so interested in what Aamir Khan had done with his website or how will it look like and bla-bla. So just woke-up and straight went on his website, wow was my first word because the website-cum
blog is very ...
Nach Baliye 3 – Loved Karan and Amita
October 8th, 2007

Week 3, and Rakhi babe is still on top with 30 points. It looks like Nach Baliye is hell-bent to make Rakhi win. The way judges and host promotes Rakhi is just impeccable. This year Nach Baliye is been jinxed I think, first it was unwanted elimination of Jodi No. 9 Kiran-Ritu Janjani and then Shakti has to leave because his wife Shivangi is not in good health to perform with him. Anyway like they say “the show must go on†it is going on with no dhamakas. It was a Ched-Chad round for the couples on Friday night. There was no elimination as Shakti chose to quit. As usual hosts were looking good and performance from last years couples, Narayani and ...
