Some Luck Some Chance....

Yesterday was when the squall of the midsems got over. Needless to say all that fist pumping at the start of the sem to finally get my act together and climb up the ghissue ladder, went down the toilet and I ended up coming up with one or two funny quotes to scribble on the desk during the middle of the exam. That notwithstanding, yesterday also happened to the day people are supposed to show some love. As Triple H so candidly puts it, “All sorts of arbit people are committed man!”

Ofcourse, Triple H’s credibility is at stake here because he hardly talks about anyone else than a particular member of the female community. But for once, I do agree with him. (To Triple H: Don’t feel bad, I still with all my sadism intact will listen to your lame stories!) Okay back to the topic, a trip to Dehradun was put off and a trio consisting of yours truly, Sweaty Teddy and the Mallu Tanker ended up having some high fun by the canal.

Some serious chit-chat later about committed people missing out on a lot, the so often abused "system" and committed people really missing out on a lot, the latter two went to their own parivaar for some management and I decided to go Dela’s room for getting some sort of entertainment.

After our hearts fell when we came to know we couldn’t watch MTV Roadies with the matkas, we decided to catch a flick. That flick turned out to be “Luck by Chance”.

Now, I seriously think Zoya Akhtar got the spelling wrong, mixing up the “F” that ought to be there with “L”. That, atleast would have given the movie a catchy title. I sometimes really feel that the bad movies, I mean the real bad ones are underappreciated. How can anyone know what’s good until they have watched a “Rock On!” (Wass’ Going On?) or a “A walk (definitely not) to Remember”. This movie is also one of those.

The man of the moment, Farhan “profound dialogies” Akhtar delivers a sterling performance as an actor who cannot act. On second thoughts, this might as well have been a biopic. Farhan “profound dialogues” Akhtar is an actor who cannot act. Like was pointed out, he was outdone in Rock On by sheer class that was Luke Kenny. (Jiska tumour uske dimaag ka hissa ban chuka hai!). The sole good looking point (apart from the fact that Farhan Akhtar would make for a very good piece of furniture in my future household), is the smok-wait for it-ing hot Isha Sharwani. With the catch being that she is shown to fall for stupid lines like, “Is kamre mein saare kapde mere hain siwaaye unke jo tumne pehen rakhein hain!

Anywhoo, with that movie out of my system, I watched Barca uncharasterically faltering against Betis. They are a joy to watch when on song, but I do feel give them a tactical English opposition and they will fall like (hmmm…look at that) Luke Kenny when his tumour/brain explodes. Some perverted fun with Triple H later and then with a long bakar session well into the early morning, I finally called the curtains on the day at a bright time of 8 A.M.

Merry St. Valentine’s Day everyone!

Where dumbness is bliss, 'tis folly to be awesome. Those cheap pick-up lines are the reason why we ended up spending V-day in each other's company while Farhan 'Profound' Akhtar landed both the uber-hot Isha Sharwani and her once-hot mom.

In the wise words of the Man himself, 'Kamyaabi hum tak nahin aati, humein kamyaabi tak jaana padta hai.'

Amen.

WT Hell. I can't decide whether to watch L(F?)uck by chance or not. I keep getting contradicting reviews. Is it as brilliant as Bachna ae bewakoofon or not?

@lefty
hmmm? indeed a thought to ponder upon. is john o shit better as a right back or a right central midfielder? but then as the man himself rightly points out to a coupon filling contest:
"agar tumne yeh form bhara to tumhe shayad fridge na mile, lekin agar tumne yeh form nahin bhara to tumhe yeh fridge surely nahin milega!"

Nothing beats how I've spent my last two Diwalis, though- OSO 2 years ago, and Karzzzz last year!

@ Lefty

Watch the latter, before anything else.

@dela
i am also looking into the "flirt with mother (implies, is implied by)get her ultra hot daughter" motif introduced by the Man.

I did watch the movie. And am happy I did. Isha Shervani is adorable. That scene when she comes to his room and says, "I've come to apologize..."
Almost as good as Ash in Dhoom 2, "Are you, like, checking me out?"
And in case you guys didn't notice, she has a small nose too.

@murtha..
yeah the electric guitar/electric shock scene is class!

@lefty
hmmm....i think you are going the "flowing hair" way with the "crinkly/small nose" thing!!
