To be continued.....



It was this Friday that after a lot of acclamation I saw the movie ‘A wednesday’, the movie had nothing new, except the conclusion, which had this tremendous connectivity with all the citizens of our Nation, who can’t do anything than just showcasing their anger by supporting such movies. And the very next day something happened which was devastating, connecting but as usual, The Delhi blasts. It was the first time that my insecurity level raised up, Kashmir, Orissa, Bihar, Delhi..Same same but different. Life moves on for everyone, except for those who are stuck here. People call it high spirit, I call them immune, though it’s not their fault, for sacrificing emotions is not a big aloofness anymore. You receiving & calling for concern to people whom you know and taking a sigh of relief hearing their voice in spite of seeing dead bodies floating around, with cameras flashing and politicians highlighting themselves just every now and then, yet the members of their party make sure to mark their presence in uniform and yet the people can forget the incident in few hours and dance till they drop to the loudest bollywood music for Ganeshvisarjan. Seems like a movie, But I still wonder is there an alternative like a 3 hour movie to pause our anger forever? But unfortunately Life moves on and so do we with all compromises in hand.

Rock on


Bollywood has reached a stage of experiment where the audience has started accepting the changes, & so here was “rock on”, one such experiment of rock culture in the Indian market.The way the Director Mr. Abhishek Kapoor, (I am glad he didn’t followed the trend of sis Ekta) managed to read the fusion taste of the masses is commendable. Every story can’t meet the practicality border set by every individual, but at the end of the day what matters most to the Indian audience is “paisa-time wasooli”, by experiencing emotions ,drama, love, songs, costumes, ambiance & finally moral with the label of a good star caste, Which this movie provided them all. The present scenario has definitely changed, where from a school kid to college going and his parents, everyone at some point of their lives want to feel like that of a rock star, and this movie was the first effort to provide them with this. Unlike a typical Farhan-Akhtar movie, the ‘magic’ was the peppiness of the youth life & further the fading effects, which actually is an emotional stage in each one of our life majorly, so there was the bonding of the connectivity. Also the perfect pace on which the movie was rolling, can say right thing happened at the right time. The live performance feel was a larger than life, real experience to be experienced rarely by the masses . Farhan Akthar, as a debutant lived completely up to the expectations of the viewers.
In spite of various characters, each role was completely justified. Experiment turned out successful in the area of music as well.On a whole, it was a dose of complete entertainment, and after long a jovial, off the track movie.A must watch for youth & for the one who are “just married”……Njoe!

Profile

Born & brought up in the beautiful lake city Bhopal, I did my graduation in (B.com) management honors from Institute of Excellence in Higher Education (I.E.H.E.).
Inspired from my father Mr. T.D. Nenwani, my aim turned out to work for the upliftment of the society, with no specification of how, what, where, when etc…And with blurred ambition, I started off writing bits for several print mediums & finally one day thought to come up with a youth fun magazine called “Phokat Times” (phokat-times.blogspot.com), in partnership with two close friends. The aim of the magazine was to give sarcastic comments on social issues and to distribute it free in all colleges, as well as at youth hangout spots and to invite them blogging for the same. The magazine was a hit buzz in a place like Bhopal, but to work over its finances, seems challenging. It was after the launch of two successful editions, that I got an offer by a newly launched radio channel, 94.3 My Fm to be a part as a Radio Jockey, luckily for a youth time band. With an amazing experience in this field for more than a year, apparently, my message was very much conveying, but moreover in a sarcastic, youth style. But at the end of the day, what mattered were the delivery & its acceptance. I am also a member of “The Green Planet Bicycle Riders Association”.

With more of fun filled factors at that stage of life, there were several issues that raised, (reservations, blasts….etc) all related to politics, several questions but no answer! And probably that was the reason; every youth couldn’t control cribbing about the same, with no major inputs of efforts. And that was the “kahaani main twist”, when a happening R.j. desperately wished to be a politician. In order to see the change, I tried to change by not throwing my chewing gum wrapper on road, by turning off the computer rather than to stand up when not required, by following the traffic rules, and by being optimistic about the Indian Politics, which was the toughest of the all. Yes India isn’t working the way it should, but who stays here? Yes politicians aren’t working the way they should, but who votes them? Yes the place is damm dirty, but no alien does that! So finally I realized as a citizen of this country I matter a lot, irrespective of the bull shit fragmentation of caste, job, profile etc…
And so here I am trying hard to make a difference as a ‘Social Communication Media’ student in “Sophia Polytechnic” Mumbai.
