THE CRACK IN THE WALL


Rahul Dravid! The wall of Indian batting line up!Is he or is he not! Definately, undoubtedly, beyond ioata of doubt HE IS!


But sadly this wall has a crack! This crack has nothing to do with the quality of cement(read technique) but it is due to the worker's lathergy(running between the wicktes!)


Hehe i must be jokin. Hes a smart fielder! He also kept wickets till we found Dhoni. So how can it be. But the fact remain that he is! No hes not slow. But hes not to fat either. But he has it in him to take a quick single. So what has gone wrong. DIGUSTINGLY, to use make an understatement i recollect atleast a dozen of instances when he's been run out, not because he could nt make it, but he forgot that he has a bat in the hands that he can drag.


Has he forgotten? The dumbest of all can forget once, twice, thrice. But so many times!and surely he's not a dumbo! Hes smart!


Methinks its due to his lathergy that hes running himself out!!! Or is it a stunt to get back the crowd onto their seat. Or is it a chance given to the next batsman like one wd do in gully cricket.

I definately think that the first one is the most likely. In that case i'd wish that things cd improve. Bcoz if they did he wd be atleast 5% more unbeatable.


Hopin for the best! In interest of Indian cricket!

ISS HAFTE KA YADGAAR SCENE (GO TO HELL!)



Film: Iqbal
Cast: Naseeruddin Shah, Shreyas Talpade, Girish Karnad, Shweta Prasad
Director: Nagesh Kukunor
Banner: Mukta Arts (Subhash Ghai)
MOHIT: Guruji! shukriya aap aaye.

GURUJI: Mohit! Tumhara ladka waaqai kaamal ka hai.

MOHIT: Aisa khiladi toh ek saadi me ek baar milta hai. Isss saal ranji trophy humari hai.

GURUJI: Ho sakta hai. Toh mujhe kyun bulaya.

MOHIT: Suna hai ke Indian team ke kuchh selectors finals dekhne aa rahe hai.

GURUJI: Shaayad. Toh kya deal offer kar rahe ho?

MOHIT: Koi deal nahin. Maine yahi batane aapko bulaya hai kee in bachhon ko apna game khelne dijiye. Ye baazi maidan par hi taay hone den.

GURUJI: Mohit naadan mat bano. Tum jaante ho ke dhandhe aur saude iss khel ka buniyaadi hissa ban chuke hai. Is desh ke sabse ache khiladi bhi saude ke wajah se oopar aaye hain. Mujh jaise log aur ab tum bhi wo saude karte hain jisse ke best possible team tayaar ho sake.

MOHIT: Isilye meri jagaah ka sauda kiya tha aapne.

GURUJI: Mohit tum mere sabse acche student the. Lekin kahin baar sirf itna kaafi nahin hotaa. Agar tum mere saath rehte toh kabhi naa kabhi main tumhe Indian team me select karva hi deta.

MOHIT: Agar koi doosra raaiz saada aapki chaukhat pe naa aata toh. Main select nahin hua uska afssos nahin hai mujhe. Agar koi cheez hai jisne mujhe toda hai to yeh ke jab main bebas aur laachar tha to ek daafa bhi aapne apna haath nahin rakha mere sar pe. Ek din mere dost, mere guru, mere bhagwan the aap. Aur dusre din main aapkee academy ke register main naam ke siva kuchh nahin tha.

GURUJI: Main sirf great players banana chahta hun bas.

MOHIT: Meri baat dhyaan se sun lijiye. Iqbal ke saath who nahin hogaa jo mere saath hua.

GURUJI: Is waqt Indian team ko ek batsman ki zaarorat hai, bowler ki nahin. Aur kamal woh batsman hai.

MOHIT: Aap jo chahe kar lijiye guriji. Yeh ladka meri tarah haar manke gumnaami me nahin khoyegaa. Iqbaal ki qismat me wo nila uniform likha hai. Aur who use milne se aap aur aapki daalali kabhi bhi nahin rok sakti.

GURUJI: To phir main uska bhala chahta hun.

MOHIT: Ek muddat se ye baat kehna chah raha tha aapse. Aapse apne baap se aur har uss insaan se jisne mera bhala chaha hai. GO TO HELL!

THE BIGGEST PANGA WITH PANGA NAA LO


Director: Rajen Kothari

Banner: Vidisha Production Pvt Ltd

Cast: Om Puri, Satish Shah, Supriya Pathak

Release date: 20/4/07

1st week gross: 6 lacs approx( business of cinema)



The schedule of the film started on 8th August, 2005. Seems long ago. Yes it was long ago. The shooting of the film was completed by feb/march 2006. Then the film took an eternity in the post production and the first copy was out by diwali' 06.



Then started the next struggle. Finding a buyer. Mukta, Adlabs, UTV, PEN, Ashtavinayak, Percept and many others. Finally PEN took up audio video rights and Adlabs gave a green signal for theatrical release.



Now tareekh pe tarrekh, taarekh pe tareekh, it was slated for release mid march. Why? the cricket world cup! Empty cinema halls. No big releases.



But the Indian team had different aspirations. They managed an eary exit. Now the entertainment world wanted to capitalize. Bigger films were pushed ahead.



Finally PNL was released with roughly 22 prints all over India one week later than promised that is 20th of April 2007. Masses had very little idea that there is a film called PNL running in the halls. Reasons. Well many. THe promos were only aired on Zee Network, no MTV, VTV or Radio Mirchi. Media tie up broken beacuse release was shifted to a date close to Abhi Ash wedding and how could they not cover that.



20th April 2007, worse than expected the morning shows were cancelled in almost all the halls of Mumbai due to lack of patronage. The next shows managed crowds but in double digits only. To add to this there were chaotic misprints in the ads published in the newspaper. The timings printe were totally differenty than actual show timings. As for example the Bombay Times showed following timings (Fame Andheri 12.30, 2.30,8.35) but the actual paln was (Fame Andheri 12 30 pm, malad 2 30 pm and kandivali 8 35 pm). Finally the ad was corrected Sunday onwards but the ad disappeared all together from Monday onwards.



Was it a lack of trust in the film. Was it sheer negletion or was this film used only to take the over flow of Bheja Fry? Whatever it was, was it PROFESSIONALISM???
