I am working with a few friends to make a little blog network. I have just moved my blog from blogspot to Sabza.org, the single roof providing shelter to all our blogs. Now that I am using Wordpress and has a lot more control on my site, I think I will be blogging better.

Transition from Blogger to Wordpress was easy but I am still unable to redirect visitors from my old blog to exact posts on my new blog. I tried to use Tom Sherman’s technique but it is only redirecting to the Main Page of my new blog. I will be spending a little more time to fix the problem and then I will become the Queen of Bollywood overnight.

Upen Patel can not speak Hindi fluently and it was rumored that some dubbing artist dubbed his lines in the movie “36 China Town”. Upan denied the rumor and told that his role as a Bangkok based Casanova in ‘36 China Town’ was all set to go with an accent that is why director Abbas Mastan insisted that Upen record his own lines. On the other hand Abbas Mastan told media that it is correct that Upen recorded his own lines but during the final editing we realized that his British accent sounded awful so we replaced his voice.

Anyways, Who cares about the accent of Upen Patel? Or who cares if he can not act well? Atleast I don’t, as far as he is shirtless I can watch him no matter how he speaks. He has a beautiful smile and a body to die for. May be he is not as hot as John Abraham or Arjun Rampal but he is on my list of guys I want to see naked and thats a big accomplishment. May be he doesn’t know how to act but he surely knows how to live in the news. Like recently he was caught naked with his ex-girlfriend Shamita Singh in the swimming pool of a five star hotel in Mumbai. A local Magazine published the sleazy pictures of couple. When Upen was asked to comment about this he simply shrugged and said “I was just kissing her. Whats the big deal?”

I was really very excited about Fanaa. It has Aamir Khan and Kajol, directed by Kunal Kohli and produced by Aditya Chopra. What else a bollywood lover can ask for? The movie turns out to be a below average flick. The story line was old and left me thinking that why Kunal Kohli, Aamir Khan, Aditya Chopra were so excited about this story? It is not like that no body has ever told this story in bollywood before. There are several movies about terrorists trying to break India into peices and then falling in love with a charming Indian guy or girl. So there was nothing new in this story.

Script, well to be honest it sounded like the dialogues were written for the soul purpose of using the word fanaa and explaining the sufi term. They had to do it because story itself was very unrealistic and director was not talented enough to deliever the massage by narrating a story, he needed couplets. dialogues were fictional and it felt like we are reading some novel or something word by word. Film is a different media and things that sound great on paper do not always look great on the screen.

Set and costumes were awfully boring. Rishi Kapoor’s character looked a lot like his role in Hum Tum. Tabu’s dialogue delivery was terrible. The movie is a must watch for Aamir and Kajol fans but I don’t think that anyone would like to see it twice, it is that boring.
