Movie Review: Me Shivaji Raje Bhosle Boltoy

*****,
I wish I could give more stars, but the max length has exceeded. By far the best best and the very best marathi movie that I have ever seen. The best part is this movie actually brings us face to face with the reality of what a common marathi man/women goes through in their daily life. Mostly in the city like Mumbai. The injustice, the ruthless behaviour the political influence the unnecessary drama and what not. This movie actually tells us how a common marathi person suffers and how can one fight back in such conditions. Every one has done a phenomenal job with their acting. The character of Shivaji Raje is played by Mahesh Manjrekar [the best in the acting business]

After the movie is over its more awakended self then ever before.

One step down

Today Mumbai Indians lost a close Battle with Kings XI Punjab in the IPL T20. The top raning batsmen for Mumbai didnt strike as expected. However the total was not a big one only a 120 to get in 20 overs. This looks achievable here, but on the track well its a different game all together.

In the end Mumbai lost the match by 4 runs. :( But never mind Mumbai Indians will hit back and hit back hard.

The Masters at their very best

Today Mumbai Indians defeated KKR (Kolkata Knight Riders) by a very big margin. The opening pair of Sachin and Jaysurya were at their devastating best this evening. It was raining sixes at the stadium all around. The live match was more seen as if the match highlights were being telecasted. Mumbai posted a mammoth total of 187 in 20 overs with a target of 188.

KKR lost the battle with all down in less than 95 runs.  For the crowd who had come to see the match, were treated with some great cricketing shots from Sachin and Jaysurya. Almost every bowler was beaten hard.

The next match Mumbai Indian play will definately bring people in much larger numbers to the stadium.

Season II of DLF IPL

The second season of DLF IPL has not been as great as it was the previous year. Many reasons to blame for but then, its good for us that we not get into those. Coming to the good part yes the fever is back and this time its more of a unpredictable series in progress. Deccan Chargers, the team from Hyderabad who was barley winning last year has not lost a match as yet in this season. One star performer of last year the Chennai Super Kings is not able to catch the speed this time around.

Mumbai Indians [my favorite] have gather enough momentum this year that they are marching nicely for now. And for Mr. Sharukh Khan the lead of KKR (Kolkata Knight Riders) is failing this year too. My prayers are with them. :) but otherwise a great entertainer.

The High speed Internet

Today for the first time on my laptop I am using a 1 GB broadband connection from Halthway and I am very happy to surf the internet at this speed. For a user like me who has used a Reliance NetConnect data card which gives you a great speed of 16 KBPS(I know its hard to believe) but that’s the fact. There is one good thing this NetConnect card does and that it teaches you to have patience.

Now after I have this 1 GB Broadband connection and I am able to see YouTube videos, this is kind of a great experience for me. Hope I make some good productive use of this internet connection.

Broadband connection rock on ….!!!

Using a new editor

I recently downloaded a cool editor from Microsoft called Windows Live Writer. Looks like a cool editor. More simple and easy to use. {The Microsoft USP}

The editor has all the functionalities from image, link, table etc that otherwise is difficult to add on to our blogs. This editor also allows us to add more plug-ins. This definately is going to be an interesting thing to explore.

This should help me blog more often :)

Will this takeover help an over take

Today the IT industry in India, the media, the general public, thousands of Satyam employees have seen a dramatic result where TechMahindra has emerged as the sole successful bidder in the race to takeover the tumbling giant "Satyam Computer Services". Tech Mahindra's bid was standing at 58 rupees per satyam share which was 10 rupees more than its nearest rival L&T infotech.

For now at least over 50,000 + satyam employees can hope for a bright future. With Satyam in its kitty Tech Mahindra can overnight has become one of the top 5 IT solutions provider from India. Which otherwise would have taken years. :)

It will only be the light of tomorrow that will tell us weather this take over has helped TechMahindra over take its competitors in the market.

Almost Lost It

Strange things happen in life, we hear this from every one time and again. People in the software domain hacking is not a unknown word. But if hacking touches your life then you are in trouble. This is coming from a hacking affected person. My Gmail, orkut, blogger account went under hackers attack. The person who had hacked my account changed the title of my account to "Sexy Sonia" now that's a tempting caption. :)
But alas Sexy Sonia, Google people suspended my orkut account. Two days I tried all possible ways to get back my account, I filled a long form on Gmail told them almost everything from the last mails that I had sent from my Gmail account. Unfortunately Google people said that they could not give my account back as they did not feel I was the actual account holder. :( This was ridiculous tough but I could not do much about it. Finally one last trick saved me from this and I could get my account back. god saved me.

Thank god I got my account back.

Movie Review: 8*10 Tasveer

Looks like its the measurement for a small room. But its the size of a photograph that takes us into the deep hidden murder mystery. A cool story to watch out for. The first half is nice but during second half you start feel being dragged. Aysha Takia could have done a better job with her acting because somewhere in between the movie we start getting the feeling of betrayal from her acting. I mean its a suspense movie and not a good idea to reveal the suspense so early in the show. Javed Jaffery is again at his best. Otherwise the dozens of family members have anyways made the screen crowded.

Jeet's Rating [***] don't think this Jeet has anything to do with the other Jeet (you know who :))

Music Edition that fits your pocket

This is one line that will definitely catch a lot of eyes. But its hard to believe that we get a cool phone in less than 3000 bucks that serves all your music needs, with a superior sound quality with dual speakers. It's the Samsung GT - E1410. To top it all we get a 1GB data card with this. Its like having icing on the cake. Only one thing that we do not get with this phone is a mobile cam, but I guess in 3000 its too much to ask for.

I am having a grea time with this phone.
