Life generally consists (or is supposed to consist) of activities that add up to your future. You study for that exam, work for that pay packet, practice for that match, pass up the second helping of cake in the hope of getting into that dress. Anything done for the present in considered an indulgence. Be it that movie or book or game or chocolate. But sometimes there comes a moment that makes your present so profound that it becomes a part of you and thus of your future.
I watched Nayakan today. I have no words to describe the experience except to say it was one such moment.

My favourite part is the brilliant way he has used children throughout the movie to further the story.
No, not all books and movies are indulgences. But i still feel one had to indulge quite a few of them to get to the good ones.
And no more chocolets for you. Never. Ever :D

You sure did. But i dont know if it would have been as effective with subtitles. You'll have to ask Khopu.

Seriously, i had NO idea it was forbidden! Any hurt caused to any person(s) living or dead is purely coincidental. And completely unintentional.
And Kaushik, as you will find out in a few months, Pune mein to main dada hoon :D Agar mera kuch bigadna hai to Kanpur is the place.
