Weighty Issues!!!

             The public is obssessed with looks and living in discomfort just to please the world. Aishwarya Rai is the latest target of such people.  
             Reasons such as she is a public figure, she needs to look glamorous and so should maintain herself all the time,sound irrational and shallow.

            Her fans will like her for her work and whenever she is ready to take up a project she will get herself ready for it.
             Let's just leave her alone and stop peeping and commenting on others personal life just to pass time or make bucks!

Are we really ready for a change????

           What I first saw on tv was a young college- going boy with a big bag slung around his shoulder,wearing branded modern clothing .But I couldn't believe when,after few seconds, he was declared as terrorist ! I was taken aback and was forced to wonder why someone of my age would turn into a terrorist.

  


             
              26/11/2009....How fast time has gone by , as if it was happening now, 
as if we could still hear the explosions, people crying after being hit by bullets and the noise of the firings on all news channels. Above all, I still can't forget the face of that young terrorist whose eyes were filled with hatred, as if like a wild hurt lion, he was searching for prey. THE TERROR IS STILL FRESH FOR ME .

           Time has passed but what still bothers me is how we can prevent such youngsters from turning into stone-hearted terrorists? They can prove to be a country's most productive assets but they instead ruin their lives and that of many others.

            No religion teaches hatred and killing of other beings, We all are against terrorism, We are One, Mumbai  has a Never-Dying Spirit, We belong to Modern India and know to stand for our rights, etc etc..... These are the common statements we come across after every attack.But they have become standard slogans by now. Its high time we do something constructive .

            No offence meant,but I don't believe in lighting candles after such attacks, because like the candle flames,that spirit also goes off after sometime .What's the use of lighting candles after darkness has struck manys lives?Only demonstrations and agitations won't help. As soon  as people go home, they forget what they demanded and what actions they expect. Its  been over a year now and still we don't see any concrete measures taken.What's the use of CCTV cameras with no person to actually monitor them??? After serious damage is caused, we run to the CCTV  to see who the culprit is.The youngsters who were very furious and willing to bring about a change,have got back to normal lives.Still the security system at many places especially the coast side is questionable.

            All other matters get discussed, but the matter that bothers me till date is what the future of youth is and what step we can take to avoid any other fresh,productive mind from falling prey to the vested interests of selfish leaders who are just so-called human beings.

Deep In The Woods

       'Seeing Is Believing'- keeping in terms with this philosophy, the Mira Road branch of Euro kids International, organizes Jungle Safari every year.

          Our curriculum talks about animals living in extreme climate, the marsupial animals, endangered animals,the nocturnal animals as well as the animals which lived many years ago, but due to their inability to adapt to the changes in their environment have become extinct.

      The school premises is transformed into habitat of different animals. The teachers put in their best efforts to set an ambiance which will help the children to understand the concepts much better while enjoying their mini-expedition!

        Jungle Safari, World Of Sea, Mock Farm and the new added attractions of Polar Animals,Desert animals and Extinct animals will surely excite the children and the other visitors.It is not feasible to take children to the natural environment of most of these animals.

       Our belief that, physical and concrete evidences are more convincing to the children, makes us strive to make learning fun by making every possible arrangement to bring the animals and their habitat just a few footsteps away from your child. 

The magical experience created by this exhibition will surely leave a pleasant mark in the memories of the children and facilitate their constructive overall development.

Salman - the most lovable Khan!!!

      Salman Khan-heartthrob of the nation and a hot favourite of the media!!!

One actor who has managed to hold masses’  attention with his charisma for more than 2 decades now. Kids like him, youngsters  love him and elderly people adore him!!!

     A trendsetter-be it popularizing fitness among the youth, bladed-knee jeans ,promoting charity or  being  in the breaking news often, this Prem has become a household  name .

      His  journey from a spoilt brat to one of  the most down-to-earth stars  around is quite interesting. Salman  embodies how  man can be humane  even after achieving fame and success .Instead of being up there inaccessible among starts, he prefers to be down with the common man and shine For them!!!

        He is a genuine being ,who unlikes some starts ,doesn’t mind ‘being himself’ even on prime time interviews. ’Diplomatic’ is just not a word in his dictionary. He has gone through many allegations  but he never lost his child-like soul, which can only  think and do  good for others.

       SALMAN KHAN-that is what Dabangg is all about .Though there is not a very interesting storyline and plot in the movie, its only salman that has made it the biggest blockbuster till date. Very happening songs with cool steps , which when done by salman in his unique style , keep the viewers grooving.This eid and ganesh chaturthi  salman has given his fans a Total Paisa Vasool  Zabardast entertainment movie.

          There is no looking back for Sallu. Even if his few movies don’t work or media show him in bad light, his fan following would never decrease and as its quite evident, its only multiplying day-by- day. A true entertainer on-screen and off-screen as well. I personally  adore him for the way he is off-screen and the way he interacts with his fans. He is one celebrity who treats his fans as stars!!!!

          Film fare edition of 9^Th June 2010, under 'Look who’s changing' had beautifully followed Salman  in different phases and how he has changed over the years only for better!!  No other actor can match smartness and looks of Style Bhai  and after Amitabh Bachhan , salman is the one who does full justice to a  police officer’s role .Still the most eligible bachelor in India  even at 45, he carries himself in such a way  so as to personify  the definition of ‘smartness’ .

     As a salman khan fan, I keep looking forward to his releases as  I am sure I will b entertained  and can take a break from the stressful schedule. His crazy acts  only makes us adore him even more, while same thing done by others may get irritating at times.

RA.ONE Review

            We must accept the fact that Shahrukh khan was brave enough to make a movie like RA.one! The first sci-fiction superhero movie in India with an emotional touch! It beautifully showcased how much parents love their children.A father doing everything and even losing his life for his son.The traditional belief of 'Goodness triumphs over Badness' was projected in a very unique and different way, so as to appeal to the young generation with a modern attitude,and make them familiar with our morals and values.

     The special effects were just too good and marks the beginning of India's creative skills in fictional movies. Shahrukh khan was as usual a pleasure to watch and portrayed both the characters well.As a soft-hearted superhero he looks cool. Kareena is looking good in the movie and her thesis on cuss words on males is an interesting concept.The child artist's performance was natural and at some places brilliant. Arjun Rampal's work as the wicked RA.One is commendable.The best thing I feel was the format of the game and its programming.It was brilliant how the game was imagined and the stages made.

         I could see the children enjoying every action scene and rejoicing .Elders,too, were at the edge of their seats for most part of the movie.The songs chammak challo and criminal are catchy and the soft number Oh dilbara is pleasant too.

            The movie was shahrukh khan's dream project and the efforts he has put into making the movie come across through the very fine detailing in the movie. Shahrukh khan has always succeeded in making a mark for bollywood movies in the West. Ra.one is India's answer to foreign special effect and superhero movies!

Let's find our soul

'The biggest hit of the year','the blockbuster which broke all the trade records','the largest box office collection till date'; these are some very common statements we get to hear these days when a new movie releases.But I wonder are they really worth the money they earn as profits? I don't think so.           Movies these days lack soul.They are just one-time-watch movies,unlike movies like Deewar and DDLJ which we feel good about even after watching them for the hundredth time! The script and the story seem to be written just for the sake of it, as if it has been written just because they wanted to write something! Even the songs are not as impressive nowadays.At times the performances are mediocre.                 In the recent past, only a few films like 3 idiots and My name is Khan have been worth watching.Wanted was also an entertaining movie.And only a few actors of gen-next like Shahid kapoor and Ranbir kapoor  and Priyanka Chopra have done some good acting.We lack stories that are soul-stirring and can help us think n feel good.  "The script demanded this particular scene" seems to be the favourite line of directors these days,leaving most of the audience not so comfortable.Just trying to ape western culture in the name of modernization is slowly taking away the essence of  style of movies.                 We are really looking forward to some good and Meaningful movies with strong performances that can entertain as well as touch our hearts.
