Back Again!

I landed myself a new job in December and thus ended my 4 month sabbatical or my “unemployed” status. Between work and everyday life, I haven’t been able to feed my blog and I’d feel guilty every time I visit it.

Here’s another funny for this week. Unfortunately it’s taking a dig at Citigroup, my first ever job.

 

“Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi” = What a waste!

I watched “Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi” yesterday and I woke up today all grumpy and with a headache. I can’t believe I wasted a perfect Saturday evening watching this crap!

The only positive thing that came out of it was that I watched a pirated movie, which cost me way less than watching it in a movie theater.

I was just curious to find out what reviews this movie got online and this is what Rajeev Masand had to say.

When it's not peddling God and its theories on love, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi is really an antiquated love story that is regressive, chauvinistic and plain stupid in parts.

Almost all of Aditya Chopra’s movie have bombed this year. I know I won’t be watching any of his movies for a long long time.

Late Wednesday night, Mumbai, India found itself the target of a ferocious terrorist attack, and the situation remains unresolved even now, three days later. According to reports, upwards of 60 young men entered Mumbai in small inflatable boats on Wednesday night, carrying bags filled with weapons and ammunition, and spread out to nine locations to begin their attacks. Lobbing grenades and firing their weapons, they entered hotels, a railway station and several other buildings, killing scores and wounding even more. As of this moment, the identity of the attackers has yet to be definitively determined, though there are reports indicating some of the gunmen were Pakistani - at least nine of them have been killed, nine more arrested. As of this writing, there were a reported 151 people killed from 11 different countries - though nearly 100 were Indian. More than 300 injuries have also been reported - those numbers may yet rise as several hostage situations still exist in the city
