(This was written for 11.11.11, but is applicable for any date, like all the 12.12.12 hype people are stupidly frothing at the mouth about right now) Human stupidity knows no bounds. An example of this is staring us in the face today where we have another fancy-number date on the calendar. And as it always…
Neram is another one of those “new-gen” light-hearted movies which are pure fun to watch. Seemingly an “Indie movement” with lesser known actors, experimental themes, no drama, foot-tapping songs with meaningless lyrics, loads of fun and solid plots, “new generation” (as they are called) Malayalam movies whose attitude revolve around “realism” and style are making Malayalam…

Yes, laws are strictly enforced in European countries…
When it comes to having changed the lives of millions of Indians post liberalization, the automobile sector must come second only after the Telecom sector. Almost all major automobile manufacturers in the world have their presence in the country today with models and variants ranging from 125,000 to 500 million bucks on offer, but heavily skewed…
A car is a must today. No doubt about that, especially when there is little effective public transportation in India. But the car ownership funda in our society is totally warped with “emotional” or perceived factors outweighing the logical and rational ones. India does not have a “driving culture” or an “automotive culture” save some…
