Ppl working/ staying in Dubai used to make fun of Abu dhabi ppl saying " U guys have no life, just 2-3 malls, and nothing much" And now the same people say that when they see a car behind them with Abu Dhabi registration, they just give way.... bhai log , tum log ke saath panga nahi manta!"..ha haUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07132664366050034930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-11086690580315150542009-03-31T07:26:00.000+05:302009-03-31T07:26:00.000+05:30Dubai is on my list of cities to visit in one of "...Dubai is on my list of cities to visit in one of "I want to escape to India for a mental and yoga break"...

But like Paul Krugman quotes we are in a entanglement we ourself created over the past decades.<BR/><BR/>And i really think that Slum Dog millionaire was not that much of an excellent piece of work as it claims to be. The success of slum dog millionaire rests much on the economic slump than on it's own talents. <BR/><BR/>People (that includes hollywood too) are really looking out for a miracle to save their asses from this slump and when a feel good movie seems to say that an Indian (a slum dog at that) goes from rage to riches, people want to relate to it. <BR/><BR/>And the phenomenon of the slum dog millionaire is born. If you really want to enjoy the best movie of this year .... Try the reader. Kate winslet takes you through love and pain in exquisite propotions.....<BR/><BR/>And nobody can deny that Anil Kapoor is enigmatic and charismatic and also nobody can refuse the fact that he is using the success of slum dog to establish his own name in the media.<BR/><BR/>Hey.... why would nt he? After all he is the star and the media loves stars (and please don't ask me what makes a star....)muthuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849537728128467505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-38502703042592210882009-03-30T21:43:00.000+05:302009-03-30T21:43:00.000+05:30Saheer was probably Zaheer, with that peculiar Sou...Saheer was probably Zaheer, with that peculiar South Indian accent, which causes people to pronounce 'z' as 's'.<BR/><BR/>:)Sidhusaahebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08428201823375343016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-81063201972675243922009-03-30T20:45:00.000+05:302009-03-30T20:45:00.000+05:30came here because of big B.love it here..added my ...came here because of big B.love it here..added my name to the huge list of followersullashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07816934501031105726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-28740331726505873912009-03-30T20:16:00.000+05:302009-03-30T20:16:00.000+05:30i think you need to be there for longer than a "vi...i think you need to be there for longer than a "visit" to know the real deal. <BR/>cheersShreya Bhatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043666071510433215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-11779126872912212122009-03-30T19:48:00.000+05:302009-03-30T19:48:00.000+05:30I am also a big fan of Dubai.. dying to visit,..
