Insidious 3, Haramkhor, Kabali, The Legend of Michael Mishra

Watched four movies as mentioned above.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Insidious 3
This movie was watched on Amazon Prime Video. Movie can be watched once without any problem.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Haramkhor
This movie was watched on Airtel Digital TV after recording on Pen drive.
This movie can be watched once without any problem. It deals with affair between a master and a student and side story is of two kids who are very naught so as to speak and the end is shown.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Kabali
This movie was watched on Airtel Digital TV after recording on Pen drive.
This movie is what I call a "South Thunder" movie. Mainly Tamil movie. It shows the Tamil culture to max and the setting is Malaysia where Kabali is a don and he does not want to be a don but circumstances make him go on the wrong path.
Movie shows the way Indians and Tamils are not united and Chinese and Malays are in conflict with the Indians after the White rulers have left over the years.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The Legend of Michael Mishra
This movie was watched on Airtel Digital TV after recording on Pen drive.
This movie is too good. I mean one has to watch it to believe it.
Similar to Kabali where the hero does not want to go in wrong path but is inadvertently drawn to it. And upon falling in love he makes an effort to reform himself due to a misunderstanding but the same "reforming" is the one which ultimately makes him get the girl.

Escape from Planet Earth, Smurfs 3, Noor, Ghazi Attack, London has Fallen

Watched 5 movies as mentioned in the subject line.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Escape from Planet Earth
This movie was watched on Tata Sky HD Video on Demand. Yes Tata Sky through "push technology" is sending movies, documentaries and serials when we leave in standby mode with a pen drive of minimum 8 GB attached to it.
This was the first movie I watched or rather Tata Sky has provided.
Yes in front of Tata Sky we are like beggars. Whatever it dishes out we are consuming.
So far I have watched Bear Grylls documentaries and few Hindi serials through this mode. Main is we do not have control as to what is getting downloaded.
Also once downloaded it is prudent to watch it fast because Tata Sky removes those videos as well.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Smurfs 3
This movie was watched on Carnival Cinemas using the movie pass which I bought at www.moviecardindia.com
This movie pass is getting completed and will get over on April 30th.
This movie is too good. Means you see it and you can tell that Hollywood animation movies are the best in the world. Indian animation will come nowhere close. 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Noor
This movie was watched on Carnival Cinemas using the movie pass which I bought at www.moviecardindia.com
This is a Pakistani story which has been transplanted to Mumbai India. And what I feel India is already quite advanced and for a country like Pakistan this movie and styory may be revolutionary but I felt this does not fit properly in Mumbai context.
But if we look at it deeper it can be made in a variety of regional languages in India like Tamil or Assamese or Malayalam and it will gel fine.
It is confusing but we have to acknowledge that making a movie is a tough job and the effort needs to applauded anyways.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ghazi Attack
This movie was watched on Amazon prime video and it is a very well made movie.
Special effects are too good and feels real.
Though loaded with Indian nationalism we have to realise that it is a war situation and one side has to win in a war. But actually there would be casualties on both side but the submarine situation means the waters can belong to only one navy.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
London has Fallen
This movie was watched on Internet. it was a DVD print and enjoyable with subtitles. Yes, we can still search for the movies and TV serials we want without paying money to Netflix and Amazon prime.
Movie is enjoyable and okay to be watched once without any problem.

Koti Surya vs Surya Koti

• "Koti Surya vs Surya Koti" is the topic of this blog post.
• Actually we had done a puja and the brahmin who had come said "Koti Surya" instead of Surya Koti in the hymn below.
•  In English it would translate "A prayer to crores of Suns vs crores of prayers to the Sun"
• As we know crore means 10 million.
• And Sun is the one and only star in our solar system.
• Now where does this arise?
• It arises in the hymn to Lord Ganesha "Vakratunda Mahakaya, Suyakoti Samprabha, Nirvignam kurume Deva Sarva Karyeshu Sarvada" Link is here
• Now we know Sun is the main "star" in our solar system.
• Without the Sun there would be no life on earth.
• Is it true? We need to analyse.
• Scientists have told that there 100 billion stars in our galaxy.
• They have further told that there are at least 100 billion galaxies.
• We can safely assume that each galaxy could have a 100 billion stars on average. Some may be having less and some may be having more.
• Now in a situation like this we can safely assume that not all stars have planets.
• Even if all stars could have planets, not all stars will have planets that could sustain life.
• So what makes life possible?
• Is it our star the Sun? or is it the planets, including the moon? What makes life possible?
• I have put two pictures here. First is from Angels and Airwaves music video "The Adventure". There they show a surreal landscape with two or three planets and a sun. the fact is that the landscape is not from another planet but it belongs to our very own earth.
• 
• Next I would like to point out to the flag of Islam. Where they show a star and a crescent. Sample displayed here is the flag of Mauritania. But same flag pattern is there in various countries.
• 
• Now there is no doubt that the crescent displays the moon.
• But the star? What is the star in the Islamic flag? Things are simple if the star symoblizes the sun. Then the flag becomes more meaningful.
• It shows that the powers of the sun become contained in this solar system and life is possible.
• These "powers" are contained by the moon. the moon is protecting the earth.
• We know sun is very powerful. It is ball of fusion happening continuously. That sun can bring about a lot of destruction in its wake. The temperature in the Sun can be up to 15 million degrees Celsius
• Now what makes surface temperature in earth just right (around 15 degrees Celsisus over a vast area) to sustain life. It could be the moon.
• Why does the earth rotate?
• Earth not only goes around the sun it also spins on its own axis which makes night any day possible. And the tilt of the earth gives rise to seasons of winter and spring.
• Earth has a twin and that twin is the moon. The twin of earth is constantly watching on earth. Though the twin does not sustain life I have a strong feeling that due to the moon influence that life is possible on the earth. 
• Also the closest celestial body to the earth is the moon.
• Scientists may debate as to how the moon was formed billions of years ago.
• One of the reason could be two planets collision which gave rise to the moon and the bigger earth.
• Now again in the Islamic flag what does the star signify?
• If it does not represent the Sun it could be others like Venus or Mars or Jupiter and Saturn.
• We can always see Venus which is known as the "evening star"
• 'Mars' is the planet which scientists say once had an atmosphere and water and rivers and perhaps even sustained life.
• Some scientists even go to the extent that earth life came from Mars which can't be proved. It is just a belief.
• 'Jupiter' and Saturn are huge planets and they are also "protecting the earth".
•  
• What are they protecting against.
• They are protecting against asteroids and comets which may harm the earth irreparably. 
• Because Jupiter and Saturn are huge, asteroids and comets and meteorites will get drawn to them and crash and earth will be saved from the collision.
• Now when we see the planets in naked eye from the earth they appear small. Small like stars. And we have learnt since childhood that only the stars will twinkle (or flicker). Nothing of that sort will happen to planets which will not twinkle as the distance is less and their lights are mere reflection of the Sun.
• Thus in the Islamic flag the crescent is the moon and if the star is the Sun then definition is easier. Or else it could be any other planet of Solar System which appears small like a star here in earth.
• And it needs to be thought over.
• Is life on earth possible due to the Sun or the moon and the planets of Jupiter and Saturn. Which is more important? For life?
• If there was no moon could life be possible?
• If any other "star system" does not have huge planets like Jupiter and Saturn protecting an inner planet like the earth would life be possible there.

Begum Jaan, 13 Hours The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi

Begum Jaan
Watched two movies as mentioned in the subject line.
This movie was atched at carnival Cinemas using the movie pass which I have bought at www.moviecardindia.com.
This movie has been shot in Jharkhand and they have made a Punjab border at the time of independence from the location. I guess the movie is okay for a one time watch. Movie deals with a whore house over which India-Pakistan border is to go as per the Radcliff line which was to be used for partition.
13 Hours The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi
This movie was watched on Amazon Prime video.
This is a war movie but at crucial scenes they have shown that war is no solution. Like in the last scene where it is shown that the hero tells the CIA chief at Benghaji that he does not need to stay there anymore.
Also the way local forces at daybreak escort the remaining Americans to the airport is worth watching. It becomes clear that occupation cannot be tolerated or is just not possible in this modern age. It is always worthwhile to work with existing Governments on the ground than risk alienating the people and making war happen.

Fast and Furious 8, Mirza Juliet

Watched two movies as mentioned in the subject line.
Both the movies were watched at Rockine Mall, Carnival Cinemas using the monthly pass which I had purchased at www.moviecard.com
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fast and Furious 8
This movie is like an American propaganda movie. As usual Russians are villians in the movie. And Russians suffer the most in the movie that is what is shown.
Also it is shown that the new America is not white and it is black or mixed race prevail. White don't get wiped out. They get side roles. Like Kurt Russell or the guy from the Taylor Swift video "Widest Dreams". Other non-English speaking country whites are villians or they suffer. The English speaking countries people like Jason Statham get side roles just like the whites of America.
If we look at history of Cold War between USSR and the West we can say much of the victory which the West had was due to propaganda movies from Hollywood, fake news from the press and TV and very less was actually based on reality.
Movies like James Bond and Fast and Furious or the Hunt for Red October are actually movies.
Star Wars program, Moon landings, people being better off in the West etc were actually fake.
Reality is the support for Mujahedeen and dictators and actual military action like in Vietnam.
Thus 50% is false propaganda. 25% is false News and 25% much be reality and hence the West won due to that.

Mirza Juliet
This movie is actually quite good. This is far better than the big budget actors movie which are actually the movies which are marketed well and show a false sense or same old version of reality. This actually a well directed movie and and well edited and acting is good and cinematography and showing of locations is quite well. It may not be big budget but it is well made and that is my opinion.

Assembly Elections 2017 analysis

Assembly Elections 2017 analysis
You must be wondering whether I am like Rip Wan Winkle who emerges from sleep after 20 years.
Similarly my post is coming a bit late when results came in on March 11, 2017 and I am writing this on 4th April 2017.
I will outline my views on the elections through bullet points.

• UP Elections totally went in favour of BJP.
• Uttarakhand elections totally went in favour of BJP.
• Punjab elections totally went in favour of Congress and AAP failed.
• Goa went partly in favour of Congress and AAP failed. Also BJP engineered a money show and grabbed power.
• Manipur went partly in favour of Congress but BJP engineered a money show and grabbed power.
• Initially it felt that the results were genuine.
• BJP had totally planned the "show of surgical strike" in September and then demonetisation in November.
• Also during elections it constantly raised the spectre of so called ISIS in India by using derailment of train as terrorist conspiracy to doing a false(?) encounter of a person during elections. The paid media also showed the news reports to the max.
• It also totally demolished all opposition and introduced the budget disregarding the view that the party in power should not sway the elections.
• The BJP purpose was to seize power in BJP and so as to build Ram temple.
• If now BJP is quiet that does not mean that it has abandoned the plans to create trouble in UP heartland. It is only lying low keeping the 2019 elections in mind.
• After 2019 elections it knows India is its for its taking.
• Nazi inspired India is not long way off. 
• After elections the news came of EVM tampering.
• It is very likely that EVM tampering was also done.
• What happened in Punjab and Goa, BJP had let loose its creation the Aam Aadmi Party.
• It was hoping that the AAP will finish Congress once and for all.
• But some well aware and knowledgeable citizens could see through the plans BJP was hatching and voted for Congress.
• And so Congress could do a show like it did in Punjab and Goa.
• AAP failed miserably. And the very basis of its creation is now in doubt as it cannot ensure a "Congress Mukt Bharat".
• Aam Aadmi Party through its very name can be known as a BJP-RSS creation as they are anti-women and so there is no Aurat in AAP name. The red blooded young male who is anti-establishment and anti-woman will find himself with AAP but little does he realise that it is BJP-RSS creation.
• But Congress could not match the well financed treasure chests of the BJP who did demonetisation specifically to dry the coffers of the opposition.
• BJP can use unlimited supply of 2000 note and 500 note through its stooge of the RBI.
• So Congress could not establish its Govt in Goa and Manipur.
• But in Punjab BJP did not want to alienate the Sikhs.
• The Sikhs live by the dagger and sword and BJP did not go against the will of the people.
• It could understand that people in punjab do not want BJP-SAD again.
• It was hoping that AAP will do the job but AAP failed miserably.
• But UP and Uttarakhand BJP concentrated and even maybe indulged in EVM tampering. And there was no AAP precisely for that.
• Now dark clouds are hovering over the country. BJP will try to lay low till 2019 but if it again wins either due to EVM tampering or money power, then post 2019 real suffering of the country will start.

Boss Baby, Naam Shabana, Kuch Kuch Locha Hai, Jal

Watched four movies as mentioned in the subject line.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss Baby
This movie was watched on big screen. Carnival Cinemas using free ticket facility booked via www.moviecard.com.
Thoroughly enjoyed the movie. Worth watching.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Naam Shabana
This movie was watched on big screen. Carnival Cinemas using free ticket facility booked via www.moviecard.com.
This movie is okay for a one time watch.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kuch Kuch Locha Hai
This movie was watched on Airtel Digital TV Miniplex HD Channel after recording on pen drive. This movie is okay for a one time watch.
It is actually surprising and shameful how Sunny Leone has "trimmed herself" for Bollywood. We know what she is famous for. Now I just cannot understand why she had suddenly become the "Adarsha Bharatiya Nari". She should be allowed to do and she should strive to do roles which she did earlier. rather than lure innocent money and then screw them post watching of her movies in which there is no "jhalak of earlier muse".
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jal
This movie was watched on Airtel Digital TV Miniplex HD Channel after recording on pen drive.
This movie is 2013 movie and shows how life is difficult in the Rann of Kutch where there is no water. This is award winning movie and is worthy of film festivals.
It is obvious that this movie could only have been made under UPA regime. This BJP-NDA Govt will sugar coat reality and not show the reality of ground.
The reality is for all mammals and not just humans and if not all living beings, water is a necessity. BJP-NDA will make water Hindu and Muslim and India and Pakistan but reality is even human and animals have the same need of water.
Certain scenes in the movie are impossible like people may migrate to cities and in the movie they don't. Also the level of illiteracy shown is stupendous.
