Tarae.....
saw "Tarae zameen pur" today. Finally!
Thank God I was forewarned about the tear fest and was mentally prepared for it.
Came out with only a couple of scenes which got to me.......like the one in which Aamir paints the kid laughing and obviously the last scene when he runs up to him.
Nice movie all in all.

Benazir's end
Banazir Bhutto- assassinated in Rawalpindi. This marks the end of an era. An era which was initiated by Rajiv in India and Benazir in Pakistan.
First Rajiv was killed by LTTE.
Now Benazir was done in by islamist/Musharaf/taliban...whoever.
Both politicians who grabbed limelight while I was coming of age.
What has this world come to?

Passing of Pratap
Got to hear a terrible news early in the morning today. Had gone to get my car repaired and came to know that the garage owner- Mr. Pratap has passed away in a road accident. I was wondering where he was coz he was always there on the counter whenever you went to the garage. And the irony of all this is that I stay just behind his house but still was unaware of this tragedy. It happened on the 21st of nov.....my b'day, a head on collision of the Indica he was driving with a bus while he was on his way for a wedding.
A tragic loss.
A tragic loss.
