It happened before Aishwarya Rai was crowned Miss World and she was participating in Miss India contest. These contests have a round in which celebrities from different fields ask the contestants some impromptu question and some points are awarded to them based on their answers. Rishi Kapoor was one of the celebrities asking these questions and when it was his turn to ask Aishwarya the question he asked - Aishwarya my question is only in good humour, what if someone makes you an 'Indecent Proposal'?

For those who don't know about 'Indecent Proposal', let me give you the context without any spoilers. This movie was much talked about in those days and is still one of the must see Hollywood

In the late 80s when I was a young, just out of school kid, I had to undertake a long train journey from New Delhi railway station. The most technological advanced thing in those days was what was called a walkman. It was a portable music player that came with a head phone and played audio cassettes. It ran on batteries that exhausted after 4-5 hours of play time and you have to replace them after that. I had plenty of audio cassettes and needed to buy the batteries. As I had 3-4 hours before the departure of the train, I went to buy them from Connaught Place. There was this music shop and I just went inside to pass time. I came across a cassete called 'Sun Mere Bandhu' it had songs sung by

It was lunch time and u/thurki was out of his basement, from where he moderated bakchodi, figuring how to download the new mental health app on his Nokia 1100, suddenly he saw a BTS fan with the mandatory satrangi hair.

He kept on staring at that coloful creature for a long time and this made the fan very uncomfortable. He/she/it finally came to thurki and said- okay boomer, why are you staring at me like that?

Nothing- thurki replied 'when I was young, I got drunk and fucked a peacock once, I was just wondering if you were my son/daughter/whatever...

This one is brilliant. Hilarious AF but there are no shitty jokes or CTs. All subtle humour. While the on screen characters are dead serious you are just laughing yourself silly. Don't miss it.

On to the 5th episode now. There are brilliant performances from Sunil Grover, Ranvir Shorey and Ashish Vidyarthi. The guy, who played Fatima Sana Sheikh's coach in Dangal, acts well too. IMO it's Sunil Grover's best performance so far as a guy with OCD and everything tgat could go wrong goes wrong with him. Like the peephole in his apartment's main door is fixed inside out so he couldn't look from inside but only from the outside. The series is full of hilarious little details like this. I mean the

What is the God of Vedanta? He is principle, not person. You and I are all Personal Gods. The absolute God of the universe, the creator, preserver, and destroyer of the universe, is impersonal principle. You and I, the cat, rat, devil, and ghost, all these are Its persons — all are Personal Gods. You want to worship Personal Gods. It is the worship of your own self. If you take my advice, you will never enter any church. Come out and go and wash off. Wash yourself again and again until you are cleansed of all the superstitions that have clung to you through the ages.

I have been asked many times, “Why do you laugh so much and make so many jokes?” I become serious sometimes — when I have st

SHOLAY REVIEWS

When it released, Sholay’s reviews ran the entire gamut from gushing to scathing.

Hindustan Times

Sholay is the costliest attempt to make dramatic capital out of this rather inglorious premise [that the defence against violence must always be more violence].’

Filmfare

‘A major trouble is the unsuccessful transplantation it attempts—grafting a Western on to the Indian milieu . . . the film remains imitation Western, neither here nor there . . . could have gone easy on the depiction of violence . . .’ [Rating: **]

Later Filmfare itself declared it movie of the century

Trade Guide

‘The excessive length and the slack pace of the film is [sic] is the main
