ANEESH’S TAG

This one’s a real toughie for me because it’s a movie tag and I am one big movie buff. I can watch anything from out-and-out masala to comedy to horror to action to arty fare. Alright, I watch everything : )

1. Name five of your all time favorite movies

After much thought, I have come up with

• Chupke Chupke: This Hrishikesh Mukherjee film is one comedy caper with brilliant performances by Dharmendra, Sharmila Tagore, Om Prakash, Amitabh Bachchan, Asrani and many others. A must watch.

• Khatta Meetha: This Basu Chaterjee film is about a Parsi couple and their children. Lovely performances by the entire cast, watch out for Deven Verma’s cute act. Good music too, I just love the “thoda hai, thode ki zaroorat hai” song.

• Satte pe Satta: I must have seen this movie at least 50 times. It’s a story about seven brothers. I think it’s based on a certain Hollywood movie. Hema Malini looks really cute and Amitabh Bachchan is the best brother anyone could ask for!

• Pyaasa: This Guru Dutt film is a classic. Beautiful is the word which describes it. Great performances by Guru Dutt, Waheeda Rehman and Johnny Walker.

• Masoom: This Shekhar Kapur film is a sensitive story about a wife who accepts her husband’s illegitimate child. Watch out for Shabana Azmi and Jugal Hansraj as the young Rahul. Masterpiece. Soulful music too, I love “tujhse naraaz nahin zindagi” as well as “lakdi ki kaathi…”.


2. Name one movie which you recommend as a must see.

This has to be Chupke Chupke. See it to believe it.


3. The one and only movie you’ve seen the most number of times (watching on TV won’t count)

This would be Taare Zameen Par (2 times). I like the TV and DVDs better.


5.Which movie comes to your mind when you say funniest movie?

Ummm……Golmaal (Old one with Amol Palekar, Bindiya Goswami and Utpal Dutt as well as the new one starring Ajay Devgan, Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor (too good) and Sharman Joshi)


6. Which movie series according to you was as interesting as the first part in the series?

Dhoom series was good, waiting for Golmaal Returns.


7. Which movie, according to you, didn't live up to your expectations, after all the hype you've heard?

Oh many. Recently, Kidnap. To some extent, even Jaane tu ya jaane na, the music was amazing (it’s Rahman sir, what did you expect?!) but I didn’t think it was as great as was made out to be. How can I miss out Love Story 2050 in this!


8. Which movie really surprised you?

I saw this movie called “Life mein Kabhie kabhie” and I thought it was pretty good.


Yaay! So it’s finally done. I had fun! Thanks Aneesh!


PJ’s TAG

Google your name + needs and put what comes up

•Tara needs a new nose – What’s wrong with the one I have right now? Weird.

•Tara needs a fashion coach who will not let her outside the house until she appears close to normal - Huh what? You mean to say I don’t appear normal? He he this is funny… :)

• Tara needs a workbench so that she doesn't ruin her table while working on projects – This is so true, my “study” table looks like an abstract painting, what with stickers, stars, spilt coffee stains, cello tape and loads of other things on it. :)

• Tara needs to exercise – Again so true, I so need to exercise :)

• Tara needs to learn how her children perceive her – Ahem ahem…..now this is going a little overboard…what children…..what perception…. :\

• Tara needs to sit down and eat a burger and fries – Ah! I don’t mind this at all!

• Tara needs the support of the cycling families she has cherished throughout her career – Kya? Cycling family?! *rolling down with laughter* Funny. Very. :)

Yaay! Tag finished! Thanks PJ! It was very entertaining! :)
