I thought she looked better in the film than in TV events. Was an interesting take. Better than that Learnardo wala Romeo and Juliet.<BR/><BR/>It was long but didn't mind it.

I liked DevD but thought it was a bit too long. Also, didn't like the actresses so much.Scarletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08909702073286784203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8234679178553337123.post-21782848609163110382009-03-04T17:06:00.000+05:302009-03-04T17:06:00.000+05:30We are shameless aren't we.

In which case they are proabably right in appropriating this film by an Irishman for their party.<BR/>I saw Benjamin Button the other day. Now that's a classical Oscar winner. Slumdog is the equivalent of what Rock On or DevD are for hindi films. These films are so different from their regular genre that people are flooredKalyan Karmakarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14552556294198718249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8234679178553337123.post-89174392064295531142009-03-03T18:15:00.000+05:302009-03-03T18:15:00.000+05:30Welcome back!

Just like we are desperate for icons.

I echo your opinion too... and it really pains me when we as Indians, feel so compelled to claim ownership of anything and everything that might have only the slightest association with our country. Even after getting snubbed by people like VS Naipaul, we still refuse to learn. <BR/><BR/>I wanted to kick this Singhvi fellow when he claims Slumdog to be a film 'by India' and 'for India'. What bullshit.<BR/><BR/>Anyways... now let me get back to reading your old posts to see what happened while I was away!Niravhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16543917716338011478noreply@blogger.com
