Bajirao Mastani
Just like ""Mohair"" Bhansali this time has interwoven a rich fabric like flick with ostentatious sets and costumes all with high luster and sheen....with characters that exudes exuberance with heartwarming and soul stirring dialogues...songs like Ayat and Diwani will literally sway your soul and lift your spirits.... Thus...like Mohair...both Ranbir and Deepika now have become durable and resilient...Have Become Stars Literally(in every true sense of the word)..and will be remembered for ages to come for being a part of the flick which if incomparable to Mughl e Azam...but equally good yes!! Crux?? Just like each time after having watched a Bhansali flick...it's like am highly drunk and intoxicated.. Hence the hangover will last for days to come......
Mrsfunnybones:-)my take;-)
Just dig in and I bet you won't let it down!!!.. Challenge!!!....and that makes Twinkle as a Novelist a winner already!!!... I remember tweeting her once that i loved mrsfunnybones more then the Twinkle in the reel and wish she had not wasted her precious years in acting...she would have been a successful author already(apropos her weekly column with the same name in TOI) You can actually judge a good book by it's back cover or it's Prologue/Foreword!!....in this case you can easily anticipate the laughter this novel promises to tickle your weak bones definitely!!...among various things that she said in Foreword one thing that I really found hilarious was...""a clearer view of life is probably the only silver lining to having to hoist your boobs over your shoulder and getting to the point where not only do you have eye bags, but even your eye bags begin to sag''" It was 1st September and it was Mom's Birthday...so thought of gifting her mrsfunnybones as she must've heard me blabbering an umpteen times about my fav weekly column that Twinkle Khanna writes so brilliantly!!!...so the book which I thought of gifting her kept it for myself instead.... Furthermore as you proceed in one of the chapters she writes...""I get there and mother dearest is sitting with her close friend Honey and is calling up another close one Bubble... Honey..Bubble and Dimple...so does anyone still wonder why I have been lumped with a name that rhymes with sprinkle and wrinkle??!!"" When reading a book or a novel one must remember to finish it in one go or if it's thick then sparing few hours from your precious time each day is a must to enjoy it thoroughly...and that's the basic thing about reading that you can't make a long gap because not only the flow is lost but half of the fun is killed most importantly....So only after having read few of the chapters ..poor mrsfunnybones had been lying unattended since September..and had to start all over again..right from the scratch... Basically it's like reading a personal dairy in which no one is spared from the digs she has made..be it Twinkle herself...her mom...Akki or the political scenario... So as an author Twinkle has done a commendable job in giving you a peekaboo into her working scenario....her personal space(her home her kids her hubby)...her wonderful camaraderie that she shares with her mom....and all in a funny...comical...yet in a witty and a philosophical way...

Koochi Koochi Koo
Yes aforementioned is the name which was decided unanimously!!....gals(ula and ala) were really ecstatic for having him over and had decided the name much earlier till we got him home a night prior!!!....yes we are talking about our new entrant in the family...just a few weeks old puppy... our Koochi Koochi Koo!!...a Pomeranian that he is!!!..
So the previous evening soon after clearing my desk and winding up the work in office... approached my Boss's door to pick up the highly anticipated puppy whose arrival was eagerly awaited!!!..... So it's actually like reliving my kid old days...days when I was so passionate about dogs that while raising them up everyone at home was told to address them as "my kids" and not as dogs... I guess it's all about having it in the genes!!!....be it my Maternal Grandpa or my Pop all had been passionate dog lovers!!!...same goes for my gals as well...my little one though is a lot crazier like me!!!....like I'm told I used to brush my dog's teeth and used to have my food from his plate!!.....This time though it's about my upper story three bedroom pad in which I have moved in recently unlike my paternal bungalow where space wasn't much of the issue...so poor Koochi Koochi Koo is restricted to one room ONLY which has been allotted to him....
That's it!!!....Koochi after having his stomach full of milk I make sure I take him outdoors for obvious reasons... immediately I did the same this morning since it was his first night home!!!....
So today he must have spent his whole day within the four walls of his room and that's what troubles me as well...and it makes really essential for him to spend some time in the open and to have some sunlight and fresh air in the morning and some time in the evening as well!!....but not to worry my gals would have rushed to play with him soon after coming back from school..that way he musn't have felt desolated and left alone!!!
