Diwali Celebrations

This Diwali is gonna glow hotter than ever before with 2 big budget masala flicks and one Sweet Romantic movie lined up for release on the 16th! The biggest bet will be BLUE starring Akshay Kumar, Sanjay Dutt, Lara Dutta, Zayed Khan while Akki's lucky doll Katrina Kaif makes a cameo. The tracks by AR Rehman are already chartbusters. The film is an action thriller, all we wait are how much of a thrill can it pull? The second big release will be Rohit Shetty's All The Best starring Ajay Devgun, Sanjay Dutt (again!), Fardeen Khan, Bipasha Basu and Mugdha Godse (Of Fashion fame). Its an out and out comedy, just like the previous Rohit-Ajay movies (viz. Golmaal, Sunday and Golmaal Returns). It enjoys an advantage over Blue that it is a family entertainer and will most likely pass with a 'U' certificate while Blue will get an A  for its bikini babes atleast... :P.... The third Hindi flick is Main aur Mrs.Khanna, a romantic comedy involving the man of the moment, Salma

हौले हौले (Slowly, Steadily) रब ने बना दी जोड़ी (God has paired them up!) Singer - Sukhwinder Singh Composed by - Salim-Suleiman My rating - 9.9/10 Reflections Aah! One of my all time favourites! Jaideep Sahni Zindabad! Its his lyrics that make this song so special, ofcourse you just can't count out Sukhwinder Singh's husky voice, Salim-suleiman's excellent composition and SRK's glamorous DEGLAM on-screen presence. But, its the lyrics that carry forward the message of this wonderfully crafted masterpiece of a song! Infact this very song is the essence, the soul of the film (RAB NE BANADI JODI). It just inspires you to forget all the laws of love laid down by Romeo and Juliet and step into the shoes of SURINDER SAHNI aka SURI.......A simple rule,,,,JUST BE PATIENT, Slowly and Steadily she shall fall in love with you!.............. love this song! Haule Haule (Slowly and Steadily) Haule Haule (Slowly and Steadily) Haule Haule Se Hawa Lagti Hai (You fe

इक्तारा / इक तारा Movie: Wake Up Sid! Singers: Kavita Seth, Amitabh Bhattacharya My Rating - 8/10 Reflections This track from Wake Up Sid! is fresh off the hooks. The lyrics are seemingly inspired from medieval Hindi poems as you can see the words Baawara, Manva etc repeating themselves. The Chorus part is the (Dil mei Goonja hai Iktara Iktara) is the part that successfully stands out throughout the play duration of the song, rest of the song is above average. A fusion of Indian rAga and western instumental is quite common now especially in the neo-age Indian films like this one. Is a peaceful track to listen to, and give it 8 out of 10! Lyrics (Translation) O Mere Manawa Tu Toh Baawara Hai (Oh My Mind! You are crazy and unstable like a butterfly) Tu Hi Jaane Tu Kya Sochata Hai (Only you know what's in your MIND) Tu Hi Jaane Tu Kya Sochata Hai (Only you know what's in your MIND) Baawarein (Crazy) Kyun Dikhaaye Sapane Tu Sote Jaagate (Why do you show me dreams wh

खोया खोया चाँद (A bemused moon!) Kala Bazaar (1960) Music - Shri SD Burman Singer - Mohd Rafiji My Rating - 9.5/10 Reflections Ahh! A Classic! An unforgettable piece of melody that  has been haunting me since the time of my birth...Maybe I used to jingle to its tune in my previous birth, coz as u can see, this song was released way back in 1960, A time when my Dear Daddy was just 5! Mohammad Rafi saab has lent his voice for this song and that makes it even more enchanting. Listen to it when you are out on a moonlit night,,,all alone,,,sitting on the terrace of your apartment....Just stare at the moon...and sing...with your Ipod...."Khoya Khoya Chaand Khula Aasmaan...." Khoya Khoya Chaand (A bemused Moon) O ho ho ho, khoya khoya chaand, khula aasmaan (A bemused moon and an open sky) Aankhon mein saari raat jaayegi (I shall be waking for they wont let me close my eyes ) Tumko bhi kaise neend aayegi (How can you sleep either?) Oh oh, khoya khoya chaand, khul

"The name India (pronounced /ˈɪndiə/) is derived from Indus, which is derived from the Old Persian word Hindu, from Sanskrit Sindhu, the historic local appellation for the Indus (Sindhu) River. The ancient Greeks referred to the Indians as Indoi (Ινδοί), the people of the Indus." "The Constitution of India and common usage in various Indian languages also recognise Bharat (pronounced [bʱaːrət]) as an official name of equal status. The name Bharat is derived from the name of the legendary king Bharata in Hindu Mythology." Bhaarat comprises of three syllables BhA+ Ra + Tha, where BhA means Oorja or Exlosive Illumination, Ra means to be resided and Tha means devoted to its service. Another derivation reveals ""Bha" means Light and Knowledge, and "rata" means “Devoted”. Bharat means "devoted to light as against darkness". The name "Bharat" was symbolic in nature revealing the fact that the whole country was highly enl

चेहरे जो देखे हैं (The Faces I have seen) Sohail Sen My Rating - 9.4/10 Reflections Another great track from the 4 hour long movie. Infact I am falling in love with this movie after listening to its songs. Yes I know, I had dismissed the movie as utter non-sense, but don't know, now after almost a week after watching the first day first show, I am wanting to watch it again! This track has the element of all the tracks of the movie. Actually its the movie summarised in a single track. Arey Yaar! you cud have just put this track in the movie.....instead of going for the 4 hour stretch! Lyrics (Translation) Chehre jo dekhe hain (the Faces I have seen) Saare he pyaare hain (All of em are beautiful) Hum kya bataaein ke (what shall I say) Dil kis pe haare hain (On whom the heart is stuck upon) Kabhi iska armaan hai (Sometimes I wish for her) Kabhi uska sapna hai (SometimesI dream of the other) Lagta hai apne toh Gardish mein taare hain (Think all the stars are under m
