I dislike....

.... remixes!!!!! Seriously, why mend something that's not broken???? The one remix that I really hated was "neele neele ambar par" by Ruby Bhatia's husband (don't even remember his name...). I mean.. come on... how dare you sing a Kishore Kumar song???? Well, so as usual out of curiosity I wikied the origin of remixes and found out that Jamaicans are guilty of starting the trend...

There are only 2 remixes that I like:
  1. Bali Brahambhatt's Gabbar remix, mainly because it is a combination of many songs (a very good combination at that) and he made brilliant use of Gabbar's laughter!!!
  2. Bheegi Bheegi Raaton mein by Leslie Lewis, mainly because I love Leslie Lewis :-)

Well...I kinda disagree wid U on dis 1 !

Everything in this world is a perception 2 1`s own mind. So, a song created by 1, lyrics by 2 and sung by 3 may b interesting to some...but not to others.

So, if I fall in 2nd category and would like to make my own version of the song which fulfills my tastes, there is nothing wrong according to me.. I may not like some ***Kumar or *** Nigam`s style, but may be a fan of ** Kher and so would luv to hear the same song sung by different ppl with different styles !

wat say now :-)

well, of course you may like whatever you like.... but why kill someone else's creation????? especially just because you know someone in the music industry, who will sponsor that.... Also most people who do this I think do not have creativity.... Changing someone else's work, is an easy way of making quick buck without putting in the effort.......

Dil ne tumko chun liya hai..........

-
I keep adding new songs to my iPod every now and then and keep listening to the new ones over and over again. Yesterday for some reason I decided to listen to some older songs and decided to go for Jhankaar Beats . I had completely forgotten how much I used to like this song: Dil ne tumko chun liya hai Tum bhi isko chuno na Khwab koi dekhta hai Tum bhi sapne buno na Dil ye mera tumse kuch keh raha hai Suno na.......... Not only had I forgotten all about this song, but I had also forgotten what a hardcore romantic I used to be. I don't know what about this song affected me so much.....The lyrics, the melody, the singer (Shaan, who else?), I guess everything about this song touched my heart. The past few years have been tough and I guess I sort of came to terms with it, but in the process put some of the old sweet memories somewhere in the back.......When I was listening to this song I was thinking, it would be so nice to have someone sing this for you.....And then suddenly that Pand...

To Be or Not To Be?

Year: 1996 Location: Kirti Group Tuitions, Dombivli (E) Scene: I was in the 12th grade and was going to Pabrekar Sir for PCMB tuitions. One day after class he was talking to all the girls in my class, a real small number and said something like: Don't let guys distract you... चांगला शिका, मुलांची लाइन लागेल :-) Nothing extraordinary.... Being pushed for good grades and education was nothing new to me..... It was present everywhere, except at home (lucky me..... everybody should have my parents!!!!). I ddin't need him to tell me about guys! Year: 2009 Location: Somewhere in Andheri Scene: My cousin and I were talking and she mentioned a sister-in-law who was past the average age of marriage (among Maharashtrians), worked in IT, drew a very good salary, did not have a boyfriend and was trying for an arranged marriage. Following are the "responses" she got: Guy: I don't want a girl who earns more than I do. Guy's mom: We don't want a girl from IT. They have...

Saawariya

-
Like I had decided quite some time back, I rented Saawariya DVD to enjoy the movie on my widescreen HiDef TV (seriously, it's much better than the Indian theater that I went to last time). First of all I hated Salman Khan. He looks like he froze when shooting one of his older movies.... the same expression (or lack of any...) plastered on his face ALL THE TIME. I of course LUVED Ranbir Kapoor, liked Sonam Kapoor, much better than Deepika Padukone (that brouhaha about her was just hype I think...or maybe a good strategy by SRK!!!)... When the movie ended I thought, this can't be it.... all this for nothing???? I was disappointed... I guess I was expecting a miraculous change of heart and Sakina falling head over heels in love blah blah blah... I was expecting the usual Bollywood drama and romance, but SLB style.... meticulously made, beautiful to the last detail.... which it was sans the usual happily ever after ending... I mean we have seen tragedies (Vasu Sapna and Raj Rashmi...
