Recap of 2011

Phew…so where do I begin?! It was the last year of Osama and the best for Obama. Shockingly, we saw the demise of OBL. Definitely takes the top row in every chart. Facebook brought revolution in Egypt and the country joined hands to show the power of people. They no more breathe under Mubarak. It’s a free nation. Libya followed the same footsteps and declared them as a democratic nation. Hail to the power of people!

A year wholly dedicated to Anna Hazare and his team; his fast; his rally against corruption; his dedication to fight until the last breath. India finally opened eyes to corruption and came together with team Anna Hazare. Lokpal Bill got introduced to every citizen of the county and youth decided to stand by in creating a corruption-free India.

It was a year of Chamak Challo and SRK. Kolaveri Di took the country by surprise. Staggering song which made everyone dance to its tune! A year when media anxiously awaited the arrival of Beti Bachchan. This might offend some of the readers but the world seriously revolves around the ‘B’ family.

It was a year when we lost Steve Jobs. The man who invented iPhone and modified the entire meaning of how to use cell phones. 2011 also the demise of Shammi Kapoor, Jagjit Singh, Dev Anand, Surinder kapoor, MF Hussain. It was ridiculous to see condolences tweets every week from countless people. An article can be written alone on the number of deaths witnessed by the world. May they all rest in peace.

2011 will remain the worst year for Japan. A tsunami ripped apart Japan from its place and left catastrophic marks all across the country. God bless Japan. Mother Nature took a toll on almost every continent and gave numerous indications of the so-called-2012-the-end-of-world. So, if it is the last year of life on Planet Earth…live it up guys!

I’m off to create some new moves on ‘Why this Kolaveri Kolaveri Kolaveri Di?’…

Bollywood ka tadka…!

Our Bollywood Industry produces about a thousand films in a year. A common man’s best time-pass revolves around B’wood films. Till date each generation have been huge fan of our famous, charismatic, alluring, and glitzy actors.

Let’s start with none-other-than; yes we all can think of only one name: Mr. Amitabh Bachchan. Of course, who does not know this personality? His portrayal, individuality, character, posture, peculiarity is extremely noteworthy. He’s been the face of Bollywood from the past 4 decades. Jaanta goes ga-ga on his bollywood ishtyle. Literally! And I bet the coming generation will also hum his songs…dekha ek baar to yeh silsiley hue etc, etc. And guys don’t forget our Dharam paaji. Gone were the days! Ahhh, he’s got vogue of enticement. No wonder, Hema Malini went fida on him. We could see what she saw in him [wink, wink]. The loop cannot complete without Vinod Khanna, Rajesh Khanna [good-looking], Jeetendar [weird looks and style], Rishi Kapoor [the only guy spared from controversy], Mithun Da [the pelvic moves] and our very own chahe mujhe koi junglee kahe, Shammi Kapoor. Yahoooo…!

Moving on to GenX now…The list starts with Hrithik Roshan, the heartthrob of millions. His macho looks and suave personality electrifies each hormone. And mind you – the guy got the best body in our industry followed by the shareef-est guy; Abhishek Bachchan. Seems like the Jr. AB is still under curtain. The man needs to flash and flaunt his talent. I guess that department is only held by his dear wifey. Since we are on Ash’s subject, we cannot bypass Sallu’s topic. The hunk! However, an unstable man, not-so-loyal, I guess. SRK and Saif are no more in the picture. Them’ two are too busy playing homos, which I kind a think they are. Yeah, laugh it up! SRK was in full hype in his DTPH, DDLJ, KKHH days. Definitely the lover boy of every girl. And now, I’m eagerly waiting to talk about this one dude – Akshay Kumar. Gosh, flashback a bit, fall into the teenage mode, and mesmerize the days of Khiladi No. 1. Yup, the hormones start to kick in. For me AK steals the show. Period. Tall, dark, handsome – a complete package. Lastly, Aamir Khan, one word – perfectionist. End of story.

Switching gears…Gossip time! First and foremost, Aishwariya Rai Bachchan. Even though she’s my least favorite, the lady is capable of anything and everything. Miss World Pageant, debut w/ Mani Ratnam’s Iruvar, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, Chokher Bali, Raincoat, Provoked, Jhodhaa Akbar, Devdas, Cannes festival, Hollywood, The Letterman Show. My Lord, name the thing and she has done it all. Ms. Rai is the face of Bollywood in West. And lastly, stole the most eligible bachelor: AB Baby… Now, that’s a success story! Oh well, enough about Bachchan’s. Few respected names come to my mind such as Madhuri Dixit [dancing diva], Tabu [innocence personified], Karishma Kapoor [the bubbly one], Priyanka Chopra [sky is the limit for this girl], Katrina Kaif [Barbie doll], Kareena Kapoor [the bitch]. After all, a bitch is necessary in all fields. Apologizes for profanity!

This is our B’town. Without these names, our life is quite monotonous. Oh, speaking of b’town, eagerly waiting for Rajneeti and Raavan. Picture, abhi baaki hai mere dost…!
