I took a brk last week from ‘Filmy Friday’ (busy packing for
our weekend trip to West Viriginia) and now I am back with a bang!
This Friday is gonna be busy for me (again!!), friends coming
over and I have planned a chaaat spread of crunchy but not-so-filling sev-batata-puri
and then hot feisty paav-bhaaaji..with dollops of butter and crisp buttery paav,
and of course some accompaniments with salad, cukes and fresh slices of lemons..n
then finish off the meal with yummy goodness of fried dough soaked in rosy
sugary syrup…yes friends, GULAB JAMUNS
indeed!! The best part is that GJs are already done and soaking in their
hot bath of syrup..so I shud say the difficult part is over!!
I just need to prep for main course n apps so I gotta hurry
up and finish this post and get back to my cooking and mixing masalas n cutting
veggies ..haha
Well, I caught up with ‘Snow
white and the Huntsman’ with my girlfriends last week –
My review - it’s a interesting
spin on the classic story we all know from our childhood but for me it was a so-so
movie..Charlize Theron really really lights up the screen with her strong
presence..i gotta admit I was actually smitten by the witch queen than snow
white herself..I am not a fan of Kristen Stewart and I don’t think there were
any major dhaasu (kick-ass) dialogues to her credit..she was lets say ..blehh!!
Though the movie was a let down I enjoyed being out with my girlfriends
for a movie night, n popcorns..and wat better that it was a weekday (need some
breath of fun in the humdrum) and, and ..it was a 6$ movie night at the
theatre..I would say score!!!!
Over on the Bollywood side, I watched ‘Aarakshan’ at home (ofcourse!!).
Movie review – it was too long,
but I didn’t mind it ‘cause I was surfing net for inspirations, working on my
blog and also online window shopping..when you have so many things going on, I
didn’t mind Aarakshan going on in the background ..haha! It was actually
perfect :)
Deepika acted very well in certain parts only! AB was good
as ever, Saif was okish..n worst was Prateik Babbar ..i was disappointed there,
he has done really well in Dhobhi Ghat and this movie was a total shocker and a
blotch on his career..story wise it did start off with its tag line –
reservation system based on castes but lost the steam I think almost half way
down the road..at the end I didn’t even think it was a fight about reservation or
caste system, just a fight between a good vs evil (as usual)
Which new movies did you watch? Im looking fwd to ‘Ferrari ki sawari’ and ‘Madagascar 3’..Hope I can catch up with
them, will keep u posted, until then have a fun-tastic weekend!
