Reader's Digest files for bankruptcy- Shocking

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 17:31:00 +0000

Just read this on Sify.com. Shocking news, actually."San Francisco: Reader's Digest, once a favourite monthly magazine found in doctors' offices and on coffee tables in millions of homes in the US and around the world, filed for bankruptcy Monday as part of a restructuring deal announced last week.

The deal will see lenders swap $1.6 billion in debt for a 92.5-per cent stake in the restructured firm with the remaining shares reserved for the board and senior management. The deal cuts the company's debt from $2.2 billion to $550 million and does not include any of the company's foreign subsidiaries, many of which remain profitable. The magazine is the latest of several debt-laden media companies in the US to succumb to the recession, which is also weighing on most major newspapers. The big media casualties this year include the Chicago Sun-Times, which filed for bankruptcy in March, and Denver's Rocky Mountain News, which shut down in February.
Reader's Digest was acquired in a leveraged buyout in 2007 by the private equity firm of Ripplewood Holdings for $1.6 billion. Ripplewood Holdings' investment is now wiped out and its lenders, JP Morgan Chase and Company, will take control of the company.

Reader's Digest, with headquarters in Pleasantville, New York, has had a storied history since it began publishing the pocket-sized magazine in the early 1920s. At its peak the magazine sold 18 million copies, which were translated into several foreign languages.
Like other US publications hit hard by the worsening economy in past years, Reader's Digest has faced circulation declines as readers switched to special interest publications."

Here are some favourite jokes from my Reader's Digest collection. (Will keep posting more of them as and when my whim and fancy allows me to)

Life's Like That:

On my parent's 50th anniversary, I said to Dad that he and mom never seemed to fight. "We battled," he said, "but shortly, one of us always realized that I was wrong"
Every new senior class at our school brings with it a new senior prank. recently, a group of students let three pigs loose inside the school. They were labelled Pig#1, Pig#2 and Pig# 4. School officials quickly rounded up the three pigs but spent the rest of the day looking for Pig# 3.

It is not entirely clear whether they will stop printing Reader's Digest. 'Restructuring' is the word they have used. Gawd knows what that means now. Hope it stays afloat.
'Til then...watch this space for more Reader's Digest gems.

Extremely Funny Joke About Men And Women

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 18:15:00 +0000

The woman freed the frog, and the frog said, "Thank you, but I failed
to
mention that there was a condition to your wishes.
Whatever you wish for, your husband will get ten times of what you wish for!" The woman
said, "That's okay."

For her first wish, she wanted to be the most beautiful woman in the world.
The frog warned her, "You do realize that this wish will also make your
husband the most handsome man in the world, an Adonis whom women will
flock to". The woman replied, "That's okay, because I will be the most
Beautiful Woman and he will have eyes only for me."

So, KAZAM-she's the most beautiful Woman in the world!
For her second wish, she wanted to be the richest woman in the world.
The frog said, "That will make your husband the richest man in the world.
And he will be ten times richer than you. " The woman said, "That's okay,
because what's mine is his and what's his is mine."
So, KAZAM-she's the richest woman in the world!

The frog then inquired about her third wish, and she answered, "I'd
like a mild heart attack."

Moral of the story:
Women are clever. Don't mess with them.

Attention female readers: This is the end of the joke for you.
Stop here and continue feeling good.

Male readers: Please scroll down.

Moral of the story:

Let them continue to think that way and just enjoy the show

PS: If you are a woman and are still reading this; it only goes to show
that women never listen!!!

Forward this to all the guys for a good laugh, and to all the ladies

Things You Never Knew Your Cell Phone Could Do

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Fri, 21 Aug 2009 10:09:00 +0000

Would you like to know if your mobile is original or not ?????

Press the following on your mobile *#06# and the-international mobile equipment identity number appears. Then check the 7th and 8th numbers:

	1	2	3	4	5	6	7 th	8 th	9	10	11	12	13	14	15
Phone serial no.	x	x	x	x	x	x	?	?	x	x	x	x	x	x	x

IF the Seventh & Eighth digits are 02 or 20 this means your cell phone was assembled in Emirates which is very Bad quality

IF the Seventh & Eighth digits are 08 or 80 this means your cell phone was manufactured in Germany which is fair quality

IF the Seventh & Eighth digits are 01 or 10 this means your cell phone was manufactured in Finland which is very Good

IF the Seventh & Eighth digits are 00 this means your cell phone was manufactured in original factory which is the best Mobile Quality

IF the Seventh & Eighth digits are 13 this means your cell phone was assembled in Azerbaijan which is very Bad quality and also dangerous for your health
THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOUR CELL PHONE COULD DO

There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies.
Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for
survival. Check out the things that you can do with it: -

(1 )

EMERGENCY

* The Emergency Number worldwide for **Mobile** is 112 ..* If you find
yourself out of coverage area of your mobile network and there is an
emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to
establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. **Try it out.**

(2)

Have you locked your keys in the car? Does you car have remote keys?
This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone:
If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call
someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone.
Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock.
Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).
Editor's Note: *It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a cell phone!"*

(3)

Hidden Battery power
Imagine your cell battery is very low , you are expecting an important call
and you don't have a charger. Nokia instrument comes with a reserve
battery. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with
this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This
reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.
AND

(4 )
How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone:
* # 0 6 #
A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. when your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless.
You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.

Life Is Only About Two Questions Really

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 09:24:00 +0000

Life really boils down to 2 questions really...

1. Should I get a dog....?

OR...

2. Should I have children?

No matter what situations life throws at you...

No matter how long and treacherous your journey may seem...

Remember there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.

You're laughing aren't you?
That's good... my job here is done!

Have a great day and don't forget to give thanks.....

The Most Romantic First Line

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 17:23:00 +0000

This is an interesting article sent to me by a friend. I have absolutely no idea who the author of this is but it is a good read- shows that Love ain't exactly what it used to be, or is it?

A local newspaper ran a competition asking for a rhyme with the most romantic first line... but the least romantic second line. Here are
some of the entries they received.

My feelings for you no words can tell-
Except for maybe "go to hell"

Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you-
But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead- The sugar bowl's empty and so is your head.

Of loving beauty you float with grace-
if only you could, hide your face

Kind, intelligent, loving and hot-
This describes everything you are not

I love your smile, your face, and your eyes -
Damn, I'm good at telling lies!

My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife-
Marrying you screwed up my life

I see your face when I am dreaming-
That's why I always wake up screaming

My love, you take my breath away-
What have you stepped in to smell this way?

I thought that I could love no other-
Until, that is, I met your brother.

What inspired this amorous rhyme?-
Two parts vodka, one part lime!

An Interesting Story... Very Interesting

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 02:11:00 +0000

A very good friend sent this story to me. I found it really interesting. Read on....

An interesting story...

At the 1994 annual awards dinner given for Forensic Science, AAFS President Dr. Don Harper Mills astounded his audience with the legal complications of a bizarre death.

Here is the story: On March 23, 1994 the medical examiner viewed the body of Ronald Opus and concluded that he died from a shotgun wound to the head. Mr. Opus had jumped from the top of a ten-storey building intending to commit suicide. He left a note to the effect indicating his despondency.

As he fell past the ninth floor his life was interrupted by a shotgun blast passing through a window, which killed him instantly. Neither the shooter nor the deceased was aware that a safety net had been installed just below the eighth floor level to protect some building workers and that Ronald Opus would not have been able to complete his suicide the way he had planned.

“Ordinarily,” Dr Mills continued, “A person who sets out to commit suicide and ultimately succeeds, even though the mechanism might not be what he intended, is still defined as committing suicide.” That Mr. Opus was shot on the way to certain death, but probably would not have been successful because of the safety net, caused the medical examiner to feel that he had a homicide on his hands.

The room on the ninth floor, where the shotgun blast emanated, was occupied by an elderly man and his wife. They were arguing vigorously and he was threatening her with a shotgun. The man was so upset that when he pulled the trigger he completely missed his wife and the pellets went through the window striking Mr. Opus.

When one intends to kill subject “A” but kills subject “B” in the attempt, one is guilty of the murder of subject “B.” When confronted with the murder charge the old man and his wife were both adamant and both said that they thought the shotgun was unloaded. The old man said it was a long-standing habit to threaten his wife with the unloaded shotgun. He had no intention to murder her. Therefore the killing of Mr. Opus appeared to be an accident; that is, if the gun had been accidentally loaded.

The continuing investigation turned up a witness who saw the old couple’s son loading the shotgun about six weeks prior to the fatal accident. It transpired that the old lady had cut off her son’s financial support and the son, knowing the propensity of his father to use the shotgun threateningly, loaded the gun with the expectation that his father would shoot his mother.
Since the loader of the gun was aware of this, he was guilty of the murder even though he didn’t actually pull the trigger. The case now becomes one of murder on the part of the son for the death of Ronald Opus. Now comes the exquisite twist.

Further investigation revealed that the son was, in fact, Ronald Opus. He had become increasingly despondent over the failure of his attempt to engineer his mother’s murder. This led him to jump off the ten-storey building on March 23rd, only to be killed by a shotgun blast passing through the ninth storey window. The son had actually murdered himself so the medical examiner closed the case as a suicide.

Very Funny Interview Of A Doctor- Dont Miss It

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 01:26:00 +0000

I love this Doctor

I found this amazing interview of a Doctor- this one is for all those fitness freak douchebags who think they can walk and talk forever... read on...

Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it... don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap

Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn.
And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient
mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken.
Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable products.

Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine, that means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain. Bottoms up!

Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.

Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?
A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain...Good!

Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING!!! ..... Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil . In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you?

Q : Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?
A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.

Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: Are you crazy? HELLO Cocoa beans! Another vegetable!!! It's the best feel-good food around!

Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.

Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape!

Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.
And remember:

'Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention
of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming 'WOO HOO, What a Ride!'

AND.....

For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.

1. The Japanese eat very little fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

3. The Chinese drink very little red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

CONCLUSION

Eat and drink what you like.
Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

The Five Toughest Questions For Married Men

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 18:11:00 +0000

Three phases in a man's life:

Men before marriage: "yeah mom...no mom...okay mom...bye mom..."
Engaged Men: "awww...please don't go...stay...no byes now...let's do it..."
Married Men: "uhh...yeahhh...of course, dear... no honey...really, darling? Sure, honeybun...you wanna do it?...it's okay if you don't want to...cool... love you, darling..." (Wife sleeps...long pause later)... "Whew!"

Every married man should know these above answers. Anything other than these will result in absolute and total moments of stress for men, guaranteed. So, what is the best way to answer impossible questions?
See the pic above for reference...and then... read the following article which is extremely funny with advice on what to say and what not to say.

Reproduced here from
James S. Huggins' Refrigerator Door (http://www.jamesshuggins.com)

The Five Toughest Questions For Married Men:

1. What are you thinking about?

2. Do you love me?

3. Do I look fat?

4. Do you think she is prettier than me?

5. What would you do if I died?

Here is the problem: If the man answers incorrectly (i.e., tells the truth), every single one is absolutely guaranteed to explode into a major argument.

As a public service, I analyze each question and provide the possible answers.

#1: What are you thinking about?

The best answer to this is:

"I'm sorry if I've been pensive, dear. I was just reflecting on what a warm, wonderful, thoughtful, caring, intelligent woman you are, and how lucky I am to have met you."

This response obviously bears no resemblance to the true answer, which is, most likely, one of the following:

a. Baseball.

b. Football.

c. How fat you are.

d. How much prettier she is than you.

e. How I would spend the insurance money if you died.

(Perhaps the best classic response to this question was offered by Al Bundy, who once told Peg: "If I wanted you to know what I was thinking, I would be talking to you!")

#2: Do you love me?

The proper response is: "YES!"

If you feel a more detailed answer is in order:
"Yes, dear."

Inappropriate responses include:

a. Yah, sure, you betcha.

b. Would it make you feel better if I said "yes"?

c. That depends on exactly what you mean by love.

d. Does it matter?

e. Who, me?

#3: Do I look fat?

The correct answer is an emphatic:
"Of course not!"

Among the incorrect answers are:

a. Compared to what?

b. I wouldn't call you fat, but you're not exactly thin.

c. A little extra weight looks good on you.

d. I've seen fatter.

e. Could you repeat the question? I was just thinking about how I would spend the insurance money if you died.

#4: Do you think she's prettier than me?

Once again, the proper response is an emphatic:
"Of course not!"

Incorrect responses include:

a. Yes, but you have a better personality.

b. Not prettier, but definitely thinner.

c. Not as pretty as you, when you were her age.

d. It depends on how you define pretty.

e. Could you repeat the question? I was just thinking about how I would spend the insurance money if you died.

#5: What would you do if I died?

This is the all-time, no-win question.

(The real answer, of course, is "Buy a Corvette.")

There is no good answer.

No matter how you answer, be prepared for at least an hour of follow-up questions, usually along the these lines:

Woman: Would you get married again?

Man: Definitely not!

Woman: Why not? Don't you like being married?

Man: Of course I do.

Woman: Then why wouldn't you remarry?

Man: Okay, I'd get married again.

Woman: You would? (with a hurtful look on her face)

Man: Yes, I would.

Woman: (After a long pause) Would you sleep with her in our bed?

Man: Where else would we sleep?

Woman: Would you put away my pictures, and replace them with pictures of her?

Man: That would seem like the proper thing to do.

Woman: And would you let her use my golf clubs?

Man: She can't use them; she's left-handed.

This video has to be watched to be believed. What a match, what tennis! Whew! Roger Federer has now become the greatest tennis player ever in the history of the game.

With this win at Wimbeldon, he has taken his tally of Grand Slam wins to 15, one more than the all time great, Pete Sampras.
Imagine! 15 Grand Slams. This is going to be tough to break.
Hail Roger, Hail!

Hey this is so cool. I got an automatic 'read more' code

I got lucky. I was testing many codes to get that 'read more' thing in posts. The posts tend to go on and on so I wanted something by which they are summarized so that readers can make a choice of what post to read and which ones not to read.

I guess this is the best one I got so far. Now I'm going to try this out in my main blog.

Mumbai Devastated:

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 22:01:00 +0000

Today, almost 2 days after the terrorists held Mumbai City to ransom, one can feel a sense of gloom in the air. As the motor bike moves through scantily crowded roads towards the highway, the first thing that came to mind was to turn back into the safe haven of home. What has happened to me? I’m a Mumbaikar.
I have jogged in its streets, played cricket in its lanes, I’m a Mumbaikar; I’m resilient; I have the spirit of Bombay in my blood. How can I feel like this? The ‘Spirit of Bombay’, ‘Resilience’, ‘Bouncing back’, are terms which seem so irrelevant today, these words sound so ‘unMumbaikar’. What has happened to my Mumbai? It breaks my heart to see things today which one does not usually associate with Mumbai.

Why is there an eerie silence on the roads today? Why have the people stopped honking unnecessarily? Why is there no traffic jam on the roads? Hey, why is that traffic cop not taking a bribe from that guy who broke the signal? Why are the cops manning the check posts and the nakabandi not looking mean anymore? Why is the local panwallah not his chirpy self today? What has happened to my Mumbai today?

Was this attack supposed to be a wake up call for Mumbai? But don’t they say that Mumbai never sleeps? Or was it all just a way of romanticizing the city? Were we not asleep all this while? How does one explain all this? So many people have used and abused Mumbai, so many people have managed to traumatize Mumbai, so many people…

Be it some insane politician like Raj Thackeray or Bal Thackeray before him, or the local police, or the underworld, or the terrorists, Mumbai has always been used and abused. They say Mumbai will bounce back as usual. Mumbai has a spirit, it is said. But does this give them the liberty to take Mumbai for granted?

‘Stay calm’, ‘We have to be united’, ‘We will look into the matter’, ‘We give our heartfelt condolences to the dead’, ‘We will treat these terrorists as terrorists’, ‘These things happen in a big city’, ‘We will talk to Pakistan’- all these statements were heard over the last 2 days from various people, politicians mostly, to which I have this to say,

‘No, we will not stay calm’,

‘No we will not be united for the simple reason that we have always been united-Who are you to assume that we are divided?’

‘We know what the matter is, sir. We do not need an explanation’,

‘Thank you sir, for treating terrorists as terrorists- now we know why they have so much courage to enter the city at will and bomb it from time to time- they know they will be treated like a hero who will be allowed to meet relatives and given home food because if you don’t then there are people from the human right associations who will make sure that they are treated like heroes.’

‘Yes, Mr Politician, these things happen in a big city and probably will continue to happen especially if the city is continued to be governed by people like you.’

‘Thank you, but no thank you, sir. We do not want you to ‘talk’, we want you to show some guts. We have been talking and talking and talking and look what we have achieved. We do not want more buses or trains or anyone coming from Pakistan or someone going from here to Pakistan.

We need action. Isn’t there anyone in this country’s leaders who have the guts and intelligence to counter this problem? Then why don’t you please contact Mr Bush from America because whatever one may say about that country and his policies and decisions but today after 9/11, there has been not even a single incident of such an attack. The people there feel safe, dear sir, safe.’

We do not want to be called a sissy country. We do not want to be a soft target for terrorists just because the people in power are gutless and heartless who can think of only votes, votes and more votes so that they can squeeze the citizens for 5 more years. I heard some politician was also contemplating whether they should be having a party meeting to discuss if they want to call for a bandh in the city. Imagine!

Enough already.

Enough, Enough, Enough!

Today no one can understand Mumbai more than the people who have lived here all their lives. No one can understand Mumbai as much as the people who knew it as Bombay. We have taken shit from all and sundry. But not anymore.

I want my Bombay back. Yes, Bombay- not Mumbai or any other name that the politicians want to force me to accept for my beloved city. Would you accept it, Mr Thackeray if tomorrow people start calling you ‘Kalu Yadav’?

No, you wouldn’t accept it.

Think about it. That’s exactly how ridiculous the name change for Bombay is too.

I want to call my city Bombay and no one can stop me.

I want my Bombay back. Not the one where people honk without a reason, not the Bombay where traffic cops take a bribe for an offence, not a Bombay where the roads have always been bad since I was not even born, not a Bombay which is taken for granted by its politicians and terrorist abettors. Maybe this IS a wake up call for Bombay, maybe this IS a blessing in disguise, maybe this is what will bring about change in the city, maybe this IS what was required by India as a whole to open their eyes and look into the mirror and ask questions to itself- maybe this IS what was required to ‘awaken’ Bombay.

Bombay has been finally put to sleep by the terrorists. Hope it does not put it to rest in the coming future.

Time to wake up Bombay.

What to do, we are like this only

Wow... I have really come to admire this man who goes by the name of Raj Thackeray. I mean look at his immense contribution to India. First, he’s making sure that everyone realizes where they actually belong to. That’s like reminding people of their roots. People have forgotten their roots and they have forgotten their parents. Go back to your parents is the message he is giving. Now that’s not bad is it?

I recently heard a conversation between a Bihari and a Upiite. Here are excerpts from that conversation.

Bihari: What is up?

UPiite: The Indians are going to the moon, so I guess the rocket is up…

Bihari: arre not that, about Raj Thackeray

UPiite: oh that? Arre it is getting increasingly difficult man. My Marathi tuition teacher has raised his fees again.

Bihari: Yeah, same here. Well, it’s in demand na. So how much Marathi have you learned?

UPiite: Ticha aaii laa… Aaii ga…

Bihari: very good…I have learnt… Aai chaa gho…aai za…(self Censored) hehe…it is a very mother oriented language…everything revolves around the mother… I’m loving it…I thought only Biharis loved their mothers but Maharashtrians love mothers too…

UPiite: Yeah there is no difference, eh? I think so too… a lot of mother is used in Marathi… like ‘Aaii La’ is also much used…

Bihari: I have also learned, what ‘Guddi buddhi jhaali’ means…

UPiite: hahaha…very nice…and you know what ‘Aai shappat’ means?

Bihari: Yeah, again mother comes into picture… so are you applying for the Railway jobs?

UPiite: yes but they are beating up non-Maharashtrians.

Bihari: I know…but they are fools…I got the forms filled in Marathi…they didn’t touch me…instead they beat up 50 Maharashtrians who had filled the form in English…idiots.

UPiite: hahaha… maa-hiti aahe…(Maa again) they are so stupid…what are they fighting for anyways?

Bihari: I guess, they want more intelligent people to turn Maharashtrians because they don’t have intelligent people amongst them. Simple.

UPiite: Yeah, I guess that is the reason. Also, they want a share of the pie from all Government organizations. I mean, there is so much to earn from bribes in the Railways.

Bihari: But asking for bribes is also an art. I mean how can they know how to take what rightfully doesn’t belong to them? That’s a prerogative of us North Indians, isn’t it?

UPiite: yeah, right. They will spoil the market of bribes by asking for a vada paav for a train berth or at the most money for Misal for a Chair Car seat.

Bihari: That’s what I’m worried about. It will set a bad precedent. People will start expecting that we will settle for 10 or maximum 20 bucks.

UPiite: Yeah, look at the Maharashtrian traffic police- they are so cheap. Imagine, they take only 50 bucks for breaking a signal. These Maharashtrians don’t think big.

Bihari: Yeah…sad… What do you think of this Raj guy?

UPiite: I think the Maharashtrians would call him ‘chaangla’. I think if he is chaanglaa, he should be sent to China…

Bihari: hahahaha…that’s what he wants to make Bombay too. Oh sorry, Mumbai.

UPiite: Better be careful what you call this city. They changed the name to Mumbai which, do you know, was primarily a Gujarati word earlier. The Gujaratis could not pronounce Bombay without making it sound like ‘Bombil’ fish and they hate fish (they are vegetarians, remember?)- so they started calling it Mumbai.

Bihari: Oh, then what’s so Maharashtrian about Mumbai anyway? Why did the Maharashtrians change it to a Gujarati name?

UPiite: I guess because 60% of people in Mumbai were Gujaratis and slowly even Maharashtrians started speaking in Gujarati if they wanted to survive in the city because to conduct business one had to learn Gujarati or Sindhi.

Bihari: Hmm…I also heard that Mumbai is what it is today basically because of the efforts of Parsis, Sindhis and Gujaratis.

UPiite: Yes, and anyway, it was never Maharashtrian- it was supposed to be a part of Gujarat only but then something went wrong and it was made a part of Maharashtra.

Bihari: I guess because of the location. Hmm…then what is the MNS fighting for?

UPiite: You think they are fighting for Maharashtrians? Are you mad? Raj wants publicity and there are too many unemployed, uneducated, stupid Maharashtrians who are ready to vandalize and ransack for a vada pav and an aardha paav…

Bihari: what does that mean?

UPiite: arre, aardha paav means half a quarter of daaru…

Bihari: Not even a full quarter?

UPiite: No…that’s what I mean by cheap… anyway… If this guy wanted to do something for Maharashtrians he should go to the Vidharba and interiors of Maharashtra where farmers are committing suicide even now.

Bihari: He doesn’t bother about them?

UPiite: No one bothers about them. There is no water, there is no farming, there is no infrastructure there, but who cares. Surely Raj doesn’t.

Bihari: So he is just interested in power and publicity?

UPiite: Exactly… just like our leaders in Bihar and UP. It’s the same yaar. Raj Thackeray is just making Mumbai into another Bihar or UP city.

Bihari: That’s the reason we came here in the first place. Now if Mumbai becomes Bihar then where would the people go from here?

UPiite: Maybe to the south…

Bihari: But they would not tolerate us either and more than that who wants to tolerate them and their gibberish languages?

UPiite: Abroad is also not an option because they look down upon all Indians. Then what is the next option?

Bihari: We can go back home but then we would have to get back to what we used to do there- nothing.

UPiite: hmm, no body wants us…

Bihari: There is one place we can go to.

UPiite: where?

Bihari: We can go to the interior villages of Maharashtra and join the communists. Raj Thackeray would never dare to touch us then.

UPiite: Yes, he won’t have the courage to even acknowledge us then just like the rest of the country who turns a blind eye and a deaf ear every time the ‘C’ word is mentioned.

Bihari: That’s a good idea.

UPiite: I second that. (In a Maharashtrian twang) Chalaa Gadchiroli…

Read-The-View: Rock On

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 19:44:00 +0000

Starring: Farhan Akhtar, Arjun Rampal, Prachi Desai, Luke Kenny,

Director: Abhishek Kapoor

Writer: Abhishek Kapoor

Rating: ****

Rock-On: A fantastic story about four best friends who drift apart as they grow up and get sucked into the rat race of life. Each has his present and each has a past. The past which was mostly spent playing music together.

How lives change!

The dreams which form a major part of one’s growing up years suddenly become impractical and foolish.

‘What? You want to play the guitar for a living? How? Begging on the streets? Go and study your chemistry’

‘I will not tolerate this you stupid nincompoop. You better finish your MBA or else you are going to the US to stay with your uncle’

Don’t these words sound familiar?

Every guy who dared to dream can identify with this film- Rock On. More so in a country like India where one’s aspirations and dreams depend on what one’s fathers and grand fathers did for a living. That’s why we have families who are all doctors, or all engineers, or all lawyers, etc.

Even our education system is designed in a way where talent takes a back seat over marks and percentage.

Rock On is inspiring in the sense that, what a little space and freedom can do to a man’s self esteem and confidence.

Everyone lives differently when young. I agree change is necessary and maturity is imminent as one ages, but that doesn’t mean one has to sacrifice one’s dreams and family in chasing an unknown idea of happiness. Ironically, the quest harbored during the younger days will always remain and they will keep haunting us reminding us of only one half-question, ‘what if??’

Rock On rocks for its simplicity in the way a complex relationship is narrated in the film. To top it, amazing performances from all the protagonists make it an exciting watch.

As for the music, no need to worry about the rock music because the film is not about rock music. It’s about these four friends and their lives. So feel free and take your family to this exciting new genre of cinema in India.

Kudos!!!

DUMBING OF A NATION

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 12:24:00 +0000

We as a nation are going from dumb to dumber to dumbest.

Angry?

Well, you should be.

Because I am.

Everything we do. Everything we see. Everything we achieve is all a part of a greater conspiracy to dumb us out of believing that we live in a blessed country.

Now I’m not blowing the leftist bugle here, but am also not condoning the democratic setup that our people are slowly becoming so proud of. I mean, I don’t even care about politics. To be frank, I don’t know much about politics. But that doesn’t stop me from observing the small details in this circus called Indian politics.

By small details I mean the human beings who are known as ‘Indians’ worldwide. What does Indian stand for anyway?

We are still told what we can do and what we can’t do, even after the British have left us alone for so long. Not that we do anything anyway, because as people we are a content lot. Let’s look at how dumb we actually are:

Have you ever taken an off from work saying you are not well but actually you wanted to watch that cricket match between India and Australia? Hmmm… and do you remember the result? Felt dumb after that? Hehe…
You buy a new car but are really scared to take it out on the roads because there are no roads. What do you do about it? Nothing, nada, zilch. You look for a good mechanic and make friends with him so that he can check your car every second day for little niggles and broken chassis.
You don’t travel by a car- you travel by a local train? Great? I mean, the 8.44 local really looks good now, what with the various advertisements on the coaches and new-improved ventilation. So what if the crowds are still the same? So what if you are still not able to board it? God! It’s a new improved train, can’t you see it? Be thankful for once.
Do you really know what the nuclear deal is all about? Come on… a little bit? No? Oh…you know what? Same here. To think that this was the main story doing the rounds of all the news channels and newspapers. But we are all proud of the deal. Now we can show the world, we have arrived. Ha ha ha! Arrived where? Gawd, how dumb can you get? Forget it. I’m not telling you.
Talking of news channels. Well, well, well… Do you know that the world is going to end in a few days? No, not years or months, a few days because of some experiment being conducted somewhere in some part of the world. Oh my, now that’s something to really think about, isn’t it? I want to catch hold of that India TV guy who broke this ‘breaking news’. I want to wring his neck and strangle him till he really knows what the end means.
Do you use your credit card? Of course, you do. That’s what the banks want you to do so that they can then trap you into an infinite debt which you or your future generations will never be able to pay back. (Remember the old movies where the ‘zamindaar’ used to suck out the life out of the farmers because of a meager debt they owed him?) Aah! History.
Farmers remind me, what was the last count of the number of suicides by farmers? You don’t know? Well, don’t worry, nobody does.
Talking of farmers again, reminds me of the current hot topic on TV- The Singur land issue. Wow! Can you imagine, the stupid farmers are protesting for their fertile land being taken away from them and them being uprooted from the places they were born- their whole identity? I mean, how can anyone be so dumb? Don’t they realize the importance of a car like Nano? It will revolutionize the whole country. It will be a ‘great’ step further for India as a nation. We can now proudly tell the world that we have a car which will benefit countless of dumb people living in the urban states who travel by trains and buses because they will finally be able to be a part of the elite car-owners club and join the traffic jams on the highways. More power to traffic jams. Wah! Of course, the farmers will be homeless but then that’s a small sacrifice for something so revolutionary. By the way, my prediction is that Nano will cost much more than a lakh by the time it is actually in the market. (Destroys the whole purpose, doesn’t it?) Dumb Tata Dumb.
Movies--- my favorite topic. You know, we as an audience ask for very little in the movies. A few laughs here, a bit of emotion there, a decent story and we come out saying, ‘achchi story thi yaar’. ‘Direction mast tha’. I think the movies are the dumbest thing we as an audience are subjected to in India. It is so easy for the makers. Buy a Hollywood film DVD. Hire a Rs. 10000/- a month assistant who will ‘write’ the scenes from the DVD. Hire a dialogue writer who knows how to rhyme words, show the DVD to a star actor and voila! You have a producer who will finance the film. Go to exotic locations for the shooting where the hero and heroine can have their romantic escapades, pump in some extra crores for the publicity and the audience laps it up like it was the best thing after independence. The actor earns crores, the producer earns his crores, everyone is happy. Audience is happy. End of story. But you know what? Still there are some people who don’t manage to pull in their audience. I mean how dumb can one get that even after copying a hit Hollywood film, one fails to connect with the audience? Gawd! Now that’s Dumb!.
I guess, there are still a lot of things which one could list here like the water problem, the power cuts, the government agencies, the police, traffic cops, Raj Thakeray, Jaya Bachchan, Ambanis, Saurav Ganguly, Sachin Tendulkar, Shahrukh Khan, etc.etc. Talking of Shahrukh, he has been unusually away from the news after his spat with Salman, isn’t he? Kya hua Shahrukh bhai?

Anyway, all these topics will be reviewed in detail in the further posts, not that anyone is interested anyway. But then you are all so dumb that I don’t really care of what I subject you to.

Suckerssssssssss!!!!!

The Write Thing

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 18:48:00 +0000

Everyone is a writer... or at least everyone believes one can write. I didn't think so earlier but lately I have met so many people who have a story to tell. All of them want to be writers. Sometimes I think that people who know me have started thinking, 'if Jainesh can be known as a writer why can't any of us?'
But believe me, I never call myself a writer, rather, I don't like calling myself a writer. I prefer calling myself a story teller because that's what I am- A Story Teller.
Well, stories remind me, I saw a couple of films that released last week. Both films told a story about almost the same topic. One is called, 'Mumbai Meri Jaan' and the other one is, 'Maan Gaye Mughal-e-Azam'.
Whew! What a contrast. 'Mumbai Meri Jaan' is a sensitive portrayal about people caught in the cross fire of terrorism, dealt sensitively by the writer- director, sensibly written, well etched out characters and an interesting narrative which doesn't bore you. Also it has a message- a positive message. I mean, it says something...
On the other hand is a film like 'Maan Gaye...' Uff! The less said the better about this movie... The writer director has made this film with utter disdain for the audience's sensibilities and intelligence. Not that he has any of that, really. God save us from these type of 'film makers' who think they can get away with anything. God save us from the actors who agreed to act in it. Ironically, Kay Kay Menon and Paresh Rawal are the two common factors of both films. Paresh Rawal gave his best performance to date in 'Mumbai Meri Jaan' and about his worst ever in 'Maan Gaye...' Same goes for Kay Kay.
Sad, but that's how the film industry works. People who have absolute no knowledge or respect for their work are being given crores to make films while people like Nishikant Kamat who really want to make a difference are left to haggle with miniscule budgets to make something which shows their passion and heart for cinema.
Sad but true!

More Power to Nishikant Kamat.
Mumbai Meri Jaan rocks!

A Funny Summation to the year 2007 for Bollywood films

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Sun, 30 Dec 2007 02:32:00 +0000

The year 2007 was a landmark year for Bollywood. There have been successful films like Partner, Om Shanti Om, Namastey London, Bhool Bhulaiyya, Welcome, Jab We Met, Dhamaal, Hey Baby, etc. (Notice the similarity in the subjects of all of them? No? They are all inane, nonsense comedies). Then there were some other successful films like Cheeni Kum, Aapka Suroor, Bheja Fry, Guru, Eklavya, Life in a Metro, Traffic Signal, Shootout at lokhandwala which do not fall in the inane comedy category.
Then there were good films like...uhmm... The Namesake, Taare Zameen Par and..... well, I guess two films in a year is more than one can ask for in Bollywood. That too one from an Oscar nominated director and one from the Gem of India, Debutant director Aamir Khan. Okay there was Chak De! by Shimit Amin (Nice film only that it seems to be lifted from some Hollywood flick but I will give it to Chak De- good film)
Then there were some really gems of un-films which makes one wonder how they even managed to release in theatres? Nanhe Jaisalmer, RGV Ki Aag, Goal, Aaja Nachle, Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, No Smoking, Anwar, Big Brother, Cash, Chhodon Na Yaar, Delhi Heights, Tarararumpum, Salaame Ishq, Nishabdh, Naqaab, Kya Love Story Hai, Hattrick, Good Boy Bad Boy, Gandhi-My Father(It breaks my heart to mention this film in this category but Feroz bhai really botched up a brilliant subject), Fool and Final, Dus Kahaaniyaan, Etc.
I think the latter category directors should all consult an astrologer for their future. Tell you what, I have done exactly the same thing for them- Consulted an astrologer for each one of those directors who did not make a mark this year. Wanna read it? Just click on the link below.

If Aamir Khan Did not make Taare Zameen Par

e.jainesh@gmail.com (Jainesh) — Tue, 25 Dec 2007 08:02:00 +0000

I couldn't resist this. This is the most amazing review on Taare Zameen Par written by Nitesh aka Sifar aka Bollywood Byter on his own blog. Read it. (I just hope Nitish doesn't mind)

If you want to know how good Taare is, just go to your nearest theater and watch the people coming out after the show. The cacophony that surrounds a crowd exiting a theater will be missing. Some would be walking in slow motion. Some would look petrified. At least that’s what happened in the theater I went to. Not a single soul was talking after the movie, probably because what everyone saw on screen was not fiction, but a semi-biography of his/her own life. In fact, the normally rowdiest gang in a theatre (ie my friends and I) that is uber vocal at the end of a film left the theater in pin drop silence. The first thing we said to each other - ‘Aamir Bhai has done it again.’

Indeed, Aamir Khan had done it again. I have a gut feeling that Taare would change people like no other movie has previously done.

I know only Aamir can make a film like Taare. But let us assume he did not make it (dream on!). What would the film have been like?

If Karan Johar made Taare

Obvious starcast:
- Shah Rukh Khan as the arts teacher (duh duh duh!!).
- Aryan Khan as the dyslexic child (even if he could not act for nuts).
- Rani Mukerjee as the kid’s mom (assuming Kajol is unavailable).
- Abhishek Bachchan as the kid’s dad.
- Amitabh Bachchan as the school principal (who cares if the role is ultra minute, he can afford it).
It would be shot in New York to appeal to the NRI audience.
The story line would obviously be different. SRK would fall for the dyslexic kid’s mom. The last scene would have the mom running to the teacher rather than the kid. And again, like in so many other movies, SRK would get someone else’s girl.
It would have one dance number.
The film would be titled ‘Kuch Taare Zameen Par.’

If Sanjay Leela Bhansali made Taare

Obvious starcast:
- Salman as the teacher.
- Rani as the mother.
Of course the whole film would be shot on elaborate sets. The school would be nothing short of Harvard university.
An orchestra would play every time anyone cried.
Slow motion, different camera angles for every scene.
The school uniforms would match the classroom walls even though that does not make a f***ing difference.
The film would cost 60 crores.

If Farah Khan made Taare

Obvious starcast:
- SRK as the teacher (yawn).
In the original Taare, Aamir makes an entry at the interval point. In Farah’s version, SRK would be on screen on for 2.30 hrs out of the 2.45 hrs and would be introduced in the first scene itself.
The story would be changed to make sure the above happened. The focus of the film would be a teacher who helps a kid fight dyslexia.
To make it a complete entertainer, there would be a romantic angle, comedy, and action thrown in. Oh idea!! Nikumbh’s character likes another teacher and the kiddo helps him.. throw in some comedy moments there and you have romance and comedy settled. For action.. hmm.. lemme see.. oh yah, the kid gets kidnapped and the teacher fights the baddies to save him. Wow!! I’m quite an imaginative writer. I can see how Farah can write a film from scratch in two weeks straight.
The film posters would have a big SRK with the tiny image of the kid in the background.

If Rakesh Roshan made Taare

Obvious starcast:
- Hrithik Roshan as the teacher.
Since Rakesh Roshan cannot think beyond science fiction these days, this film would have that too. Instead of dyslexia, the kid would have alienositis or something, a condition induced due to him witnessing an alien abduction.
Instead of Nikumbh being an arts teacher, he would be a physics teacher, and instead of asking kids to be creative, he would ask them to challenge the science we know.
In the scene where Nikumbh asks the kids to open their minds and make whatever they want outdoors, the kid Ishaan, instead of making a boat, would end up making a working spaceship prototype.
Nikumbh would cure the kids problem by making a full fledged version of the kid’s prototype, traveling to the alien planet, and asking them to give the kid his powers back.
The film would have music by Rajesh Roshan ripped off from some world music.
The film’s name would again start with a K.. probably ‘Kuch Aliens Taaron se Zameen Par’.
The director would make sure Hrithik gets to show all his abilities. This would mean a scene with Roshan jr flexing his muscles, and a dance competition in the end, instead of an arts competition.

If Priyadarshan made Taare:

Obvious starcast:
- Akshay Kumar as the teacher.
- Paresh Rawal as the kid’s dad.
It would be a brainless comedy. The kid’s dyslexia would be made fun of. Half the times the parents will be running after the kid from one room to the other and that, in the director’s opinion, would be funny.
The film will be full of sex jokes. So for example, when Akshay would come to the parents telling them that their son has dyslexia, the ignorant father would say something inappropriate like ‘iss umar mein? par kaise, woh to hamesha boys school mein padha hai!’. And yes, the director would think it is funny.
In the climax of the film all the characters in the film would run around in the amphitheater for no reason, spilling colors on each other. That’s where the film will end, without any logical conclusion.
And of course, Paresh Rawal would emote like an epileptic himself making us question the boy’s mental abilities anyway.

–

I know there are a lot of other directors, but I choose these guys because I feel they are the most gutless or overrated directors we have today. They keep doing the same shit again and again and more often than not depend on the stars to carry a shitty film forward. They have no courage to try something non-nonsense, something that can use the medium of cinema for a little more than just entertainment, in spite of being the most sought after directors in the country

The reason I am making this comparison at all is to show how Aamir (and Amol Gupte) has made a pure film, without giving into the temptation of masala or ‘what would the audience like to see’ philosophy; for giving chance to fantastic yet unknown actors like Vipin Sharma and Tisca Chopra (I love Tisca); for riding against the tide; for not trying to hog the limelight in the film by happily playing second fiddle to the boy (even Aamir Khan’s name comes after Darsheel Sarfi, the boy, in the credits); for giving the audience something different once again as an entertainer; and for truly caring about the society and using the medium to bring a change.

I remember earlier this year SRK made a statement: ‘films are for entertainment; messages are for post offices.’ Well Aamir Khan has proved that cinema is probably the best medium for giving a message and I can say that looking at the face of every person in the cinema hall. Not only that, he has proved (yet again!) that a message can be entertaining.

Behold bollywood bigshots, Aamir the director has arrived. With just one film, he has set the bar higher than most of you can only dream of reaching.

Ooh Aah Ouch!

noreply@blogger.com (Jainesh) — Sat, 01 Dec 2007 14:51:00 +0000

As expected, I got a major drubbing from a lot of my friends for making them read the assortment of my various reactionary, angsty and biased views on my blog.

But guys, you have to understand that I'm a human being and I need to vent out my thoughts and feelings and reactions (read frustrations) in some way. There are a lot of reasons for my erratic behavior. Here's naming a few:

I don't go around abusing people like the recovery agents of credit card banks, who rob me daily of my money, even though I don't use their card. (It's magic, you know. They always manage to have some over due amount in my account) In fact I recently paid a bank whose card I don't even have. But do I get wild? No way.

I don't go around bashing up auto-rickshaw drivers when they appear out of no where right in front of your vehicle exactly at the time you change the gear to speed up. No, I don't.

I don't unnecessarily get angry with people who invariably manage to rub me the wrong way. (No, I don't mean literally you pervert)

To tell you the truth, I have even become very patient with the missus at home, hardly raising my voice when she demands the nth number of time that I must put my things in order or leave my plate in the sink or put the wet towel for hanging rather than on the bed or for that matter help my daughter do her homework. She is only four and she has homework? God, give me a break. Imagine.

This is what I mean. How much suffering can a man take before he's called a man? (remember the Bob Dylan song?)
What does he do? does he stop drinking with the guys once in a while ?(I mean I rarely drink in the mornings)
Does he stop ogling at beautiful women? or does he stop thinking about quitting smoking? Does he stop promising himself to go to the Gym from tomorrow? or does he just stop snoring in the night? Come on, isn't all this asking for too much?

All these restrictions, all these compulsions, all these frustrations. Where does one take them out?
On the Blog.
Thank God for this internet and the blogging business.

So all you guys out there wanting to bash me up, please, relax and chill because I'm just a frustrated, intolerable guy who has nothing better to do with his frustrations and anger and time and so I write everything down on my blog.

By the way, Om Shanti Om is a great movie and I'm going to watch it again and again and again. and I loved Sawariyaa too and I know I'm going to just love Goal and Aaja Nachle and for that matter Munna Pandey Berozgaar. So there!

Ouch! (awright, stop hitting I'm sorry)
