Quotes-By Nayana

Look around you. And for heaven sake clean!

Once upon a time Anger was my nemesis. Now it’s my foe.

Don’t try to be smart. Just be.

Bend a little and you might touch the ground.
Stretch a little and you might reach for the skies.
With a little exercise your life should be good – ambitious but grounded.

Music, A candy to an ailing heart

It was the early 90s. Life was just taking a turn as was India. One day it was the magic of Eddie Murphy, Tyra Banks and Michael Jackson. Magic Johnson hits the big drum and declares in a booming voice. It was a time to remember alright.. On a Sunday it was suddenly Eric Clapton who brought 'Tears in Heaven'. Was it Tears for Fears who said 'Everybody wants to rule the world?'. DesRee and Terence Trent Darby with the silken 'Delicate', 24 by 7 taking to you a fast paced 'Take me away", Bon Jovi keeping the faith, Guns N' Roses welcoming you to the jungle with Axl Rose's sexy hairdo in 'Yesterday'.

Watch it just for the sake of absurdity. Rent a DVD or wait for the movie channels to bring it to your homes but do watch it! Especially if you are from the South Asian community and want to have a dig at your own expense. The movie is silly and trivial but hilarious in pockets. The meeting between Jessica Alba and Mike Myers starts off with an old Bollywood song of reincarnation which is real cute, dolloped with a few vulgarly 'humur'ous sequences and an item number by the lead pair. Ben Kingsley is wasted in the role of Mike Myer and Deepak Chopra's teacher. It seemed like a spoof of sorts to cast the legendary actor in this role (probably referencing it to his role as MK Gandhi /Indian in the movie Gandhi) and make mockery o...
