...Weekend nearing an end is always painful. Quite a hectic and eventful weekend - from good to bad! The good I thank God for..and the bad I am used to...Life is beautiful and I will never cease to make it even more beautiful.
Aawargi, me and Divsy went watching Jodha Akbar..(You feel so good when you are with your best buddies together)....hmmmm....one time watch for sure...nice portrayal of characters. I never knew Akbar was so romantic (!)....and I almost fell for him until someone reminded that he was the one who separated Salim and Anaarkali...[HOW COULD HE DO THAT!!! Shooo...huh!!]....Ashutosh has done a good job as a director....it was a task picturizing history...liked some bit of cinematography too....I anyway like running horses on big screen...they look so powerful. Looking at horses, I got reminded of 'International velvet'...a beautiful english movie of a black horse that I had seen some 20 years back......will check if I can get that dvd somewhere...okay, back to JA...Hrithik is too good to be true...and knows his character...Aish - plastic beauty of which I have no doubts left...but okay to watch....but what scored for me was that one song...and worth a mention is the 'Khwaja' song...when it started...the first few lines...I was all set to rip my hair apart...but as it goes on...it IS terrific. It touched me completely...I had tears in my eyes when the song ended...and what a terrific picturization towards the end....so very soulful. It instantly connects you to GOD. AR rehman rocks! Please do listen to the song...and feel GOD within you. You can listen to the song here...

I intended doing some pictography..but did not find that kind of time off...did capture 5-6 moments, which I should be able to post after I am done with the editing......
