RANDOMNESS with MR. DEEDS

I have started jotting down my feelings to stay in touch with them always! 

One other attempt to grow better!

WITH 

 

Watching Mr. Deeds. One movie out of the many that makes me wish, if only I were in the protagonist's shoes. And what more should I wish for if the chief protagonist is one of my favorites Adam Sandler.

Forwarded to the scene where manager of Mr Deeds uncle's company comes to visit him. 

He is being told about how his billionaire uncle (unknown to Deeds left a mighty fortune for him). Whatever I write from here on is what feelings are surpassing my mind while I watch this beautiful movie.

P.S. (pre-script): This can't be a movie review, I think! So don't come sabotaging me about something that I wrote, which according to you is not correct!

It is just a visit made to my RANDOM thoughts!

1.   Why can't I fake sick in my regular job, and be taken as casually as Murph here. Arghhhh!! I so envy this pizza delivery guy here. He looks so joyous and satisfied just cause he has nice people around him. I am not against my life in any sense. I intend to make it better. All who are around me are beautiful and lovely. No doubt about that! *END*

2.    Want to learn and use the word "Touché". It  means acknowledging someone else's point that was made at your own expense. Nice little expression!
"Touché everyone!"

Ha ha ha! Wasn't that a nice one!

3.    I am so thinking of having a thought board for myself in my house. Deeds greeting card's board made me realize this. And yes, I would love to write a few getting cards myself. This online thing has crashed and cursed the card business somewhere. But still, emotions in words can't be ignored. Let it be nineteenth century or twenty first!

4.    "To my sweetheart, I love you completely with all my soul, without you I am nothing, a butter less role."
Wasn't that wonderful!
How can someone laugh at that?
Anyways, if this was in real and not in reel, and if I were the editor of hallmark cards, Deeds would have broken all existing records with this card. No other Valentine's day message for the next ten years!

Note: I can't keep on penning whatever I feel. So, I will wait for something that makes me subtle and stable!

5.    Want to say this to someone sometime: " Handshakes are for strangers, we hug around here buddy!" And make someone feel special. :D

6.   Deeds reading his card and people screaming his name. Come on, I want that role!! That's me altogether. :D

7.    "I promise to love you for 50 years more, even when your bosoms sag down to the floor!" Applauds everywhere for a happy man! Happiness is contemporary! Why I say that; cause it changes from time now to time then. What makes me happy is Deeds, not because the character was enacted by Adam, but cause the character is happy! The character has SPACE of his own, RECOGNITION of his own, and WEALTH of his own!

8.    How is being rich going to hamper your daily deals? If you love something, no money is big enough! (Deeds delivering pizzas after inheriting millions of dollars.)

9.     Go with what everyone wishes! Accept them as they are! This will help them to accept you as you are. Finally, you are the one who ends up making your life simple and lovable.

10.   How will it feel if an entire town comes to bid you farewell??? Rich and happy!!! Let me quote a line from the Deeds farewell card: "While I am gone, I know, I will miss you all a lot!"

11.   If you are happy and funny, you can make everyone around you smile and laugh! Inspired from Deeds Trip from Mandrakes fall to New York!
Nicest!

12.   Babe is a historic representation of the girl who has got the ability to let most of the stupid guys bend down to her charm.  And the story of hers where she blows her entire salary on shoes is....Yuck* 300000... still not enough..... Although I behold curly hair too, I have not messed my life for someone like her. I have experiences of other kinds of messy girls!

13.   Deeds comes to know that he owns a football team and he says, "It sucks!" I don't reverberate here Deeds. I would love to own a team.

14.   We don't need to be servant, we should be friends! Don't hit the chord there. I live in a country where people live to get considered as a servant.

15.   You don't need to be labeled by where you belong! You are, what you are! No cloth can decide your life! (Deeds enters a big business meeting in his super casual attire.)

16.    When you do right, you do right! Let all of then go!

17.    Enjoy and celebrate those small moments like an ECHO!!!!

18.   Abba, the band! Loll! I was in love with this band a few years ago. Would love to relive my passion and love for music.

19.   Would love to use 'wicked' as an adverb to describe every 'wicked' adjective around.

20.   You ought to save yourself from the people who mock you! Diaper therapy! You need to be stable. But how long, Deeds is great while he beats them to ashes. (The restaurant scene where a few top notch socials make fun of Deeds.)

21.    I love the attention that Deeds got! Funeral scene... :o....:D.....

22.   Oh my god... The best scene. (Editing this after some 24 hours, do don't remember which got me to react like that. :D.)

23.   Thanks Dr Pepper to be around.

24.   You can be something someday if you really want to! Thanks Mr Deeds.

25.   Discontinued here on! You need to be alone to do all such crazy stuff! 

If you read this, thanks for staying till the end. Loll!!!

CHENNAI EXPRESS: MY JOURNEY

PS (PRE-SCRIPT): This isn't a movie review!


Started at 930 for 1030 show!

The multiplex is just a fifteen minutes drive from my home. Imagine the excitement. 

And why not? 

Will be experiencing the real SRK after a period. Ra.One and JTHJ stole him from his real fans.

There are two types of romance:
1. The old book style
2. The SRK style.

Ages since I experienced the second.

Enough of all the sci-fi and the dramas. We want (at least I want) the old SRK back with his smart sense of humor and cupid love!

Not much of a Deepika fan!

Rohit Shetty is one hell of an entertainer (minus Bol Bachchan). I am sure the combo can't disappoint the viewers. Talking more about Shetty; let's not measure his sanity, let's count his hits. That's what really counts, correct? How many times can you watch Singham, and how many times Paan Singh Tomar? Do I answer the question? Want to clear that I had no intention to insult the wonderful movie (PST). It was just a comparison between commercial and parallel worlds of cinema.

45 minutes away from boarding the Chennai Express! A big crowd awaits even though, it is the second last show of the day. 10:30pm is not that young time of the night, and then when you are aware that you might be leaving the theater somewhere around 1 in the midnight.

And the countdown begins: ....

Nope! As usual E square had kept some cards close to it's chest! Suddenly they have changed the start time from 10:30 pm to 10:45 pm. 

Someone please screw them.

Not now! Not Now! After a month or so. :) 

Chennai Express has lot to do and more than a lot to break at the Box Office. Every single theater counts; forget the theater, every single ticket counts!

And more than anything, Every Single Fan Counts!!

Can see people from the last show leaving. A few escaped from the front door. Nice, happy faces! 

Think, SRK has made up to all of them after the disappointment each of us faced cause of JTHJ.

Three minutes to go!

People are ecstatic! Hope the energy and the sacrifice (our sleep after the full day job) pays.

Missed writing while Chennai Express played.


So, here are my honest feelings:


1. SRK is still the heartthrob. The wild uproar of the crowd was enough to prove this. There were even some whistle fights, which happened whenever some punches hit the movie screen.

2. Rohit Shetty is a big fan of SRK himself, and Chennai Express is a homage to the idol of Bollywood Romance.

3. Deepika cannot be ignored. She matches pace of the iconic star.

4. You tend to forget most, but do take away a few back with you. What more can you expect from a complete commercial flick?

5. Last fifteen minutes of second half seem to be a little too lengthy, but then you can ignore fifteen out of a 150 minutes long movie.


Hilarious of all : Watch out for these:


1. The train scene: "ab mujhe bahut gussa dila di" (you have made me extremely angry now).

2. When SRK gets drunk and insults everyone, starting with Deepika.

3. Encounter with the Srilankan smugglers & The Life Pie dialog.

4. The fight and patch up between SRK and Deepika after they run away from Deepika's father's village.

5. "Don't underestimate the power of a halwawaala."

6. SRK and Deepika bed scene (nothing A about it). One of the funniest moments of the movie.

7. All the scenes featuring a mixed-matched "antakchari" between SRK and Deepika.

 
I know, though it is an SRK movie, I haven't listed any of his romantic scenes (and yes, I started with expecting an SRK romance comeback).

But, that's the magic of Chennai Express. It showcases SRK's funny bone more than his romance.

And, SRK, like the old days, excels as a charmer!

(To everyone who has asked SRK to do something different, isn't this different? BTW, I heard a few more comments in which people has asked SRK to start taking risks as he used to do before! I seriously feel that they are the ones who had asked him before to stop doing the same thing again and again. Look, no one cares for what they think, but at least have some spine when you speak. Don't get muddled up, just to prove your points.)


Watch Chennai Express to forget the world for a bit, at the least.

Watch it to experience star power of one of the biggest superstars of this century.

R & F : Back After a Decade

Rasputin: He again called us; once again to share his pains, sorrows, and incompetency!

Fakir: Come on! Aren’t we here for that?

Rasputin: I am not! You might be! He kicked us out of his life.

Fakir: Did he?

Rasputin: Why are you asking me? You too were thrown away.

Fakir: I was always there with him, a little calm this time as I found that he is taking right decisions.

Rasputin: What right decisions? He was sacrificing everything he wanted to have.

Fakir: No! He was doing the correct thing!

Rasputin: Okay! Is it? Then why is he back? You will have to agree with me. He wanted none of these. He wanted what we know he still wants, but can we steer him anymore?

Fakir: I know he wants something else from life, and he will be there once he is done with what he is doing now.

Rasputin: This is not going to end, Fakir!

Fakir: You are again taking the wrong loop. I never said that he should end any of the things that are making his physical life easier. He has to put a full stop to the ones that are making him reluctant to approach his destiny.  

Rasputin: I agree, but how? Can he even think about it when he has no thoughts left?

Fakir: His thoughts are always alive! Let him crave for them to become visible. He loves analogy, compares, and contrasts; let him understand how a desert feels about flood! Let him rise, let him rise again!

Rasputin: I hope!

I AM STILL HERE.....PART 1

You were there I suppose looking out for me,

Brilliant eyed, constant mind,

Every sense possessed by thee…

You preyed on me,

It was your domain.

But I opine not the same,

I still have things to fight for,

A freedom, soul, survival, and dreams to crave….

I still have things to live for,

       I still have my dreams to crave….

   
       I still have my dreams to crave….

Loser....

Loser as I were, loser as I would have ever been,

Loser I am still and loser how I make you all feel,

Loser whom you find, loser whom you strive to get hold of,

Loser as I always will be, loser without you always!

Colors that make no color to me,

Sounds that no longer make any sound,

The shades that is hotter than sun,

The clouds that have stopped raining,

The air that flows without any trace of life,

All cause of life that goes lifeless without you,

Loser as I always will be, loser without you always!

I heard the story of a king and his queen,

The king who never lost his love,

All the vows he made to the queen,

All the deeds he did for her,

Everywhere he tried to find her after her death,

Every time he cried to find her in space,

All the time he screamed now and again:

“Loser as I always will be, loser without you always!”

(ps: inspiration --> "Challa" from "Jab Tak Hai Jaan")

I will be there....I still think...

It never wandered around,

I never thought a lot about,

It went and passed by,

U were there and are always,

“I will be there at that moment always,

I still think about that always…..”

You keeping up with all life wanted,

You there to stay for what I admired,

You always standing tall for what “WE” desired,

You there to hold me strong,

“I will be there at that moment always,

I still think about that always…..”

The small things you did,

The small things that made me live,

The false lies you made me regret,

The love you made me forget,

The life you gave me saying that,

“I will be there at that moment always,

I still think about that always….”

The reasons you gave me,

One I am still looking for,

The hurts unbearable as they still are,

One you remind me as much as it can,

I will search all, till you are there to say

“I will be there at that moment always,

I still think about that always….”

(PS: Still listening to the SRK poem in JAB TAK HAI JAAN)

For YOU!!!

Spent, Felt, Cried, Loved, and Lost,

You are the one whom I feel and believe, of them ALL!

Died, Deprived, Craved, Begged, and Gained,

You are the one  who is priceless, of them ALL!

Killed, Cheated, Revolted, Lied, and Boasted,

You are the one who got the simplicity, of them ALL!

Drugged, Dosed, Conked, and Swooned.

You are the best sight, of them ALL!

Discovered, Possessed, Caught, and Captured,

You are the best I have, of them ALL!!

SINGER OF THE SCREW-YOU LAND

Once upon a time, in a distant SCREW-YOU LAND,

Lived a singer, with his SCREW-YOU BAND.

He danced and roamed from street to street,

Shouting aloud, and calling it a melodic treat.

Everyone in the land, and some on his own bandstand,

Were aware, that his music was laid and bland!

No ears did he give to the townsmen,

Neither did he react to what his mates had to say,

He continued singing his songs, to everyone, whatsoever it may!

And then came one day,

When the town heard the SCREWER of the SCREW- YOU LAND proclaim:

“You make one more song, darn you, the SCREW-SINGER,

  You lose your tongue, darn you, the SCREW-SINGER!”

The SCREW-LANDERS did sympathize,

But underneath, they had a reason to rejoice,

They were hopeful that now, the singer had no other choice!

Long takes to prosper, and longer turns to reign,

The SCREW-SINGER had one last song to make,

All heard as he sang along,

Without a fear to lose his songs:

“Oh, you SCREWER, of the SCREW-YOU LAND,

  Do chop off my tongue, if you feel my music is so screwed up bland.

  Do remind me what remains for me,

  I know nothing, but the songs I sing,

  The songs, which are my only abbey!

  Oh, you SCREWER, of the SCREW-YOU LAND,

  Can a man live after losing his gland?”

Everyone heard, and everyone saw,

How the SCREWER stuck to his law!

A slash of the sword, and blood everywhere,

The singer lost his soul in the petite affair!

No one screamed, and none did shed any tears,

As the SCREW-SINGER’s shrills fainted, without any sears.

Death ends as much as it revives,

Nothing more can now be heard on SCREW-LAND,

More than the SCREW-SINGER's advice!

As all the younkers rise, and sing along,

“Tell me oh SCREWER of the SCREW-YOU LAND,

 Can a man live after losing his gland?”

PS:  Never deprive someone of the right to feel the soul inside!

    

I AM YOU!!

I walked through the storms, holding you in my hand,

For the love, I have, the pains never count,

You are me, and I am you,

Between us, there is no adieu!

I still remember the day:

Mid of the way; they taunted,

The taunts screamed in your ears more than they could,

They forced, and you stopped, and made me stop too.

You asked me to be ripped off, which made me aghast

Why, I asked, 

The why, which you never replied to,

Is still there and haunts me, whenever I feel you.

Dark as I was, and darker as they showed,

Blinded the vision you had, I suppose,

You tried to hide, get away from me,

But there were no reasons that I could foresee!

I was destined to be with you,

If not you, no need of me,

I came from you, I merged in you, I lived in you, and wanted to die with you.

Though dark, as they found me to be,

I am you, and you are me!

The sounds, the shrieks, the pain, and the pleads,

You gave in to all,

Tried to escape from me! 

 I am dark, that is how I should be,

Dark as death and death resides in me,

Hence, I took your plea,

And deprived you of what you should be!

Till then, I was fluxed in you,

Now, you are the one, who looks up to me,

Still, will carry you in my arms,

As, I am you and you are me!

(Got a little inspired from "Bhala Bura" song from the movie "Aks"! But it turned out to be a lot different from what I expected! If you read it, try to emote. For instance: an evil laugh after the line "Tried to escape from me!", and then continue with an arrogant voice.)

This is not one, but many!

2012 has seen me in great despair.

There was a lot I wanted to talk, but most of the times I lost the words which would have helped me to mouth my emotions. I suddenly started losing my way with the rhymes. Started finding it really difficult to write, or even to express.

Who has been stopping me, or rather what has been stopping me from doing what I love the most?

John Denver’s “Poems, prayers and promises”, no longer is playing in the background anymore!

Am I too done with this existence? Am I left with nothing to remember and be grateful of?

Are there no more sufferings which trouble me? Are there no pains which make me feel alive?

It is nothing of that sort happening with me!

I still feel happy to see all the lovely people around me. They still make me happy and provide the beautiful moments which bloom into an endlessly large flower as time fleets by. She still sits with me as she used to, talks to me as she used to do. We still fight like the school kids. Moments are still there but the vision has gone translucent towards them. Time has replaced the life in it. First I used to feel it, now I just pass by it!

Things still make me uncomfortable. They are always around, and need one chance to make me feel terrible about myself. But it is that, I have stopped feeling!

How can I write without feeling things?

I need to get back into my old shoes which made me sing a song with every moment passing by!

I am still there....

It wasn’t for me that destiny got untied,

The answers that it gave me once, were so untrue and out casted,

They were away from the reality and looked like some bunch of flowers which I wanted to hold.

They still are the same, the bunch which is placed far away and I waiting to hold.

If it was for me, it would have been that,

But it is not!

It is you, who made the figure out of some pebbled mud and broken mould,

This life belongs to all of you,

What I am is how you have seen me!

Because, my natural self is still that vague, irrational and erratic boy,

Who used to chase those seven colored flies!

The flies which were attracted towards the same bunch of flowers!

A few Questions for Dibakar Banerjee

This post comes out of faith and belief we always had in you.

Your latest creation, SHANGHAI, left us in a dilemma and I would like you to answer some of our questions about the movie:

1. Why the movie was named “SHANGHAI”?

2. What was the significance of letting the viewers know that Kalki’s father was a General who was caught in a scam of 40 crores?

3. How did we come to know that Emraan Hashmi was an outright pornographer (there were scenes where he was requesting girls to get into modeling and then in the second half a more clear version of him GETTING involved into pornography. But throughout he was clicking pictures and making videos of events; which was more of a freelance journalism rather than pornography.)? And, even if he was a pornographer, why is it being projected so loudly everywhere, except in the movie?

4. Why did Kalki leave New York (as mentioned by Prosonjeet somewhere)?

5. Why was the extramarital affair between Kalki and Prosenjit shown? How is it important to the script?

6. What was the meaning of the dialogue, “If the CM would have become PM, our country might have achieved the level of China”?

7. What were the significance of the below scenes:
• Kalki and Abhay slipping on the wet floor.
• Conversation between Emraan and Abhay in the washroom.

8. How did everyone come to know that Emraan’s brother had a tape, although he had told this only to Emraan and Kalki? And if they came to know about it, why didn’t they try to destroy the entire studio (they threw everything out of the studio except the CPU)?

9. Last: Where does SHANGHAI hit so hard that it becomes difficult for viewers like me to hear any noise it creates?

PS: We wouldn't have asked these, if SHANGHAI was supposed to be another Commercial flick. It isn't! It is something much more intelligent (as we understand from the critic's and a few viewer's reactions.

REBECCA PART 4: SHAPING ME-2

REBECCA got created here: REBECCA

There were times I drew myself,

Tried to give a figure to my thin thoughts,

Everything was so detached,

I was unable to view my instance in mirrored lots!

Who was I and how did I appear?

Questions which struck me days apart!

Convinced with how you feel,

Left with how you see,

I had nothing of my own to be.

I was just your creation with no creativity in me!

Still with unopened eyes I lie,

As I free myself to die,

To die and renew!

Rebecca shapes herself with her ashes strewed!!!

Speaking To Conscience: Part 1

Q: What should I do to protect myself from the troublesome situation?

A:  Let things get to you as they are and see how they shape up. It was never simple and it is not so hard yet. It is just that you feel what you want to feel. Love what you are into and feel how it wants you to feel. 

     Don’t judge, don’t react. Just accept. Accept that the things are not how you want them to be and accept one more thing that things will someday be how you want them to be. 

     Give yourself some time. Talk to yourself as you are doing now and see your reflections around. Find people like you. Talk to them and share with them. Be a help and let them help you. 

     Breathe as slow as you can and sometimes as fast as no one can. Decide for yourself and not for the time. Rule yourself and not the situation. Reverberate with yourself and not with the dilemma you are in. Don’t fight! It won’t help. 

     Don’t be passive as it is the worst thing you could do to yourself. Don’t run away and don’t try to face. There is nothing to face. The only truth around is you and your existence. No one can take it away from you. 

     I know life could have been simpler. I know decisions could have been rational. But then I know one more thing that there is no enthusiasm and agility in something which is simple and known. 

     Love yourself as much as you can and love whatever you have done. Do not repent as you did not do anything wrong. You made some wrong moves, but then that is how we have to be to exist with divine. Take some wrong moves and end the vicious circle. 

    Merge with me and let yourself be free.  

NEWS 17/11/2011 from @VSAR's BLOG

This requires more research than my job does! But I do it for you, all you beautiful people who read what I write. 

So here are some stories which looked like headlines to me today.

1. “Dear God, let me do this for you.”

This is not at all a private letter to almighty but Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez’s feelings. The man   from Idaho was caught on Wednesday in Pennsylvania.

His crime?

He dared to shoot at the White House, last Friday night.

The police believe him to be a mental patient obsessed with God and his dictations to him. I don’t know where these people come from and how do they get such vibrations in brain.

The hearing on the White House shooting was today.

The best part of the entire episode; this was not the first time that White House has been shot. So it won’t feel anything new happening to it. The President and his wife were travelling, so stop thinking about their well being and read the next news. J

2. Keeping you updated with SOPA, don’t remember it?

SOPA, guys, the Stop Internet Piracy Act that was proposed by Eric Schmidt from Google Inc.  I mentioned it in the yesterday’s news. Anyways, if you don’t know, get yourself updated.

The latest news from SOPA’s kitty is that it is being opposed as a bill which can cause internet censorship. One more censor. I can’t tolerate it. Can you?

3. Bradley Cooper, remember him? Of! Course you do. The Hangover hunk? J

He is selected as 2011’s sexiest man alive. I hope Jack Black doesn’t get tempted by this and start trying to look handsome. :D

4. Even after ruining Nokia’s cell market and capturing the entire web, the hunger of Google doesn’t seem to stop. 

Here they are with the official launch of their Google Music. With this, they seem to overtake Apple’s itune.

Let us see google, how far can you make it?

5. Now, one from my desk; after starving a lot, I actually made others starve today. (This doesn’t make any sense, does it?)

Keep yourself updated : HERE

NEWS 16/11/2011 from @VSAR's BLOG

The day has been a little restless and unworthy for me as I spent most of the time doing nothing.

Let us see how it was for others… :)

1. Heather Locklear and Jack Wagner took their relationship one step back. They called off their engagement. Awesome!!! Wasn’t it? Sorry if it hurt your feelings but these silver screen babies have this habit of doing this more than often.

2. There is a new revolution in the online world. Don’t worry! No one takes away Google’s credit. Eric Schmidt, the Executive Chairman of Google has proposed a new law to the online world. It is called SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and intends to screw all of us who love watching pirated movies, playing pirated games and listening to pirated music. So all you pirates, be aware or book yourself a separate cell.

3. Watch out for evil queen Julia Roberts in the forthcoming Hollywood attraction: Mirror Mirror. What do you want more? Go and catch up with the trailer on youtube or something.

4. For all the SUV lovers, here is Ford with its 2013 Ford Escape. The Los Angeles Auto show saw this beautiful baby. Wait for it and till then be relieved by some of its pictures on Google. ;)

5. Last but not the least, one from my desk. I will be sued by my readers someday for writing on so many varied topics. :D

REBECCA PART 3: SHAPING ME-1

REBECCA got created here: REBECCA

I rise to see the clouds unveiled,

The drops still wetting the locks.

Brightness once proposed to be dim, feels blinding,

The air whispers to the nakedness of my physical lot.

 Hard to feel the toughness of land,

The feet seem to be numb and bland.

Touch doesn’t work anymore,

The hands have lost their power to control.

Smells are unique,

They don’t seem to distinguish themselves as they flow,

My voice voices me,

It has my inner glow.

No more do I resemble the dead,

REBECCA shapes me and in me she dwells……

REBECCA PART 2: NAMING MYSELF

Continued from: I AM BORN

You called me names,

And made them me,

You did it for yourself,

And engraved on me,

You tried to mould,

And make me resemble how you thought me to be.

I revoke you of your rights on me,

And name myself REBECCA,

REBECCA, which binds me to me.

To be continued….

REBECCA PART 1 : I AM BORN

I held the music you deprived me off,

I made the noise you stripped me off,

I touched the soul you ripped me off,

I saw the light you blinded me off.

& now you come back and enquire:

Where did I get the support you showed me not?

 The hands have power to create answers,

The will has knowledge to lay off pasts,

You shout, I speak not,

But my dreams have answers to shut you off!!!

To be continued…..
