Raaz, Logan Lucky

Watched two movies as mentioned in the subject line.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Raaz
This movie was watched Amazon Prime video.
This is the original Raaz movie.
I always wondered what this movie was about.
I only have to blame myself that I never watched this movie when it got released in 2002.
I remember it was running in Eros theatre in Mumbai at that time. But I did not watch it.
But finally watched it and liked it. Definite okay for a one time watch.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Logan Lucky
This movie was watched at PVR Forum mall.
I liked the movie.
Good neat and clean movie.
Can be watched with kids.
It has lucky because even after a heist and return of money, the thieves are still left with a lot of money.
Even though I think highly unlikely in real life still can be watched once without any problem.
In reality stranger things happen.
Open loot is happening and people are unable to do anything.

Bullet Train Scam

• Now BJP Govt under Modi have brought a new topic to keep the focus of public distracted.
• And that is Bullet train.
• It is a joke on the people of India and Gujarat.
• By trying to bring bullet train in the Ahmedabad-Mumbai sector, BJP and Modi have tried to make a fool of the Gujarati public.
• Election is due in Gujarat in this year 2017 and Modi Govt has been unable to deliver anything.
• All the development in Gujarat is happening due to the industrious nature of Gujaratis and the immigrants from other states who make to keep the Gujarat environment vibrant.
• Now Modi and BJP have only acted as disruptors.
• Demonetisation and ill implementation of GST are acting against BJP and hence they have come up with a new scam like situation known as Bullet train.
• Now if Modi was serious about the development of India, he should have launched the bullet train on Delhi-Ahmedabad route.
• That way it would have shown that he cares for India as well as Gujarat.
• Now the picture is clear that Bullet train has been launched keeping Gujarat elections in mind.
• All the contracting and subcontracting will now be given to middlemen who back the BJP.
• In the process BJP will transfer hundreds of crores to their supporters.
• Another issue is that China should have been involved.
• There are high speed trains in China and it would have been simpler for China to enter India and build the tracks for the bullet train.
• But Modi knows China would have been a tough taskmaster and would have demanded work and implementation in a genuine way.
• No stealing, involvement of middlemen in this.
• But Modi has zeroed in on Japan because it will be a "win-win" for both. 
• While hundreds of crores will be paid to middlemen, Japanese contractors will also take hundreds or thousands of crores.
• They get to park their money and get interest in return.
• In Japan, banks charge money for keeping your money. Now they will get paid for keeping their money.
• Now the cost for the bullet train will benefit Mumbai to Ahmedabad passengers, but the price will have to be paid by whole of India.
• Now they are taking more money for petrol. This extra money and more and more taxes will be collected for all Indian people and paid to Japan as repayment of loan in decades to come.
• India and Indian people will become more and more poor in the process.
• It is also said that Electrionic Voting Machines came from japan and so Modi is "repaying his debt" to japan by "selling India" to Japan.
• No doubt that India will be ruined in the process.
• Also what is the need for bullet train in a route which takes eight hours. 
• Certainly time is not that precious that one cant spend eight hours in a journey.
• Bullet train should have been launched in a route which takes 24 hours or 36 hours like Chennai-Mumbai or Delhi-Ahmedabad. Then the journey would have become seven or eight hours and made it worth while.
• Launching bullet train is a joke and a scam on the people of India.
• This is "cash cow" where supporters and backers of BJP will milk for years and decades to come.

Ganpati Visarjan and "Qurbani"

• We know that every year dates of Ganapati Puja and Eid-al-Adha or Bakri Eid clash.
• And that has been the reason for communal clashes over the past century or more.
• Because Muslims will want to "sacrifice animals" including sheep, goats, bulls and cows.
• And Hindus will object to cows being slaughtered.
• Each will be adamant.
• Then we have to realise why the Muslims sacrifice animals anyway.
• The idea behind this is preservation of life.
• Yes sacrifice of an animal is saving of a human life.
• It follows an old age story where Abraham (PBUH) was asked to sacrifice his son and I quote from Wikipedia "It honors the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son, as an act of obedience to God's command. Before Abraham sacrificed his son, God provided a male goat to sacrifice instead. In commemoration of this, an animal is sacrificed and divided into three parts: one third of the share is given to the poor and needy; another third is given to relatives, friends and neighbors; and the remaining third is retained by the family."
•  Thus the life of the son was saved and in exchange the people sacrifice an animal.
• This "willingness to sacrifice" is something adorable and that is what is called as "Qurbani"
• Now Hindus will also say they value life.
• And preservation of life is paramount to them.
• They will say we do not need to sacrifice anyone, not human not animal.
• What Hindus will say...
• We build an idol.
• That idol is of the son of God Shiva and Goddess Parvathi, Ganesh or Ganapati.
• Now we install him and pray to him and then we immerse him into a clean water body.
• Thus our God who is a son of one of the Supreme deities is sacrificed.
• So why do we need to show willingness to sacrifice our son like Abraham.
• And why do we sacrifice an animal and become non vegetarian.
• And that my friend is the achievement of Hindus that they are able to say look we have sacrificed our God, no need of Qurbani for us anymore.
• It is opposite ideas which have the same conclusion which is preservation of life.
• The way to go about it differs and that's it.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Recently I saw a video through a Whatsapp forward and a ISCKON devotee was telling how ganesh Puja celebration is too wrong these days and he mentioned five reasons for the same as under:

1. The way Ganesh status are designed goes against the scriptures. Sometimes shown driving a scooter, holding a mobile or having tea with Narendra Modi (a mere human), it is a violation of the "Godly status" of Ganeshji.
2. Statues of Ganeshji are installed in makeshift tents which are in the road and exposed to sound and dust of traffic which is wrong.
3. Film music is played, DJ is employed, dance routines followed, loud firecrackers are burst which is not for "God" and against the scriptures.
4. During Visarjan (or immersion of statues) the statues are taken and dumped in open water bodies. Same statues which were prayed to for several days.
5. After Visarjan, the statues lie all around the beaches and elsewhere and have to be cleaned using bulldozers at certain places which is wrong. using bulldozer on god is just wrong.

Daddy, IT, Poster Boys

Watched three movies as mentioned in the subject line.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Daddy
This movie was watched at Carnival Cinemas, Rockline Mall.

• This movie is a must watch.
• It gives a "crash course" on Bombay or Mumbai history.
• Anyone who does not know about Bombay's tumultous history can know about it by watching this movie. 
• This movie can be compared to movies like "The Last Emperor" or "Gandhi".
• Definitely a must watch and deserves awards in film festivals and all.
• And if the movie is that good we must praise the director and the actors.

-------------------------------------------------------------
IT
This movie was watched at Carnival Cinemas, Rockline Mall.

• Unfortunately I have to say that this movie is not at all scary.
• The kids use a lot of expletives in the movie.
• And we can say any kids who use this much of expletives won't be scared.
• This is a pure time pass movie and towards the end we are made to realise that this is only Chapter 1.
• So another movie has come which will now spawn sequel. Congratulations.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Poster Boys
This movie was watched at Carnival Cinemas, Rockline Mall.

• This movie is a must watch.
• Because it is so bad that it actually feels good.
• The director Shreyas Talpade has probably suffered a mental breakdown while directing the movie and did not know how to end the movie
• And so he does a "Nanga Pradarshan" which means a "nude performance" from those who have been wronged.
• And surprisingly Bobby Deol goes to Baniyan and Bermudas while Sunny Deol only gets off his jacket.
• But Shreyas Talpade loses his top self and becomes topless and so does few of extras.

Committing Suicide in Twitter : A New Beginning

Committing Suicide in Twitter : A New Beginning

• After a lot of deliberation last year I decided to open a Twitter Account and keep it open.
• At first I thought Twitter is time waste and 140 characters makes fun of you.
• I mean you can write a lot in a blog post but only 140 characters in a Tweet.
• What joke is this?
• Then I realised that in this day and age, it makes sense to use Twitter.
• We are in paucity of time.
• We may not have the time and the inclination to sit in front of the computer and make a huge blog post.
• But it is possible to display your state of mind in Tweet.
• Also I found that last year there was a huge struggle in United States between Hillary and Trump.
• I sincerely did not want Hillary to win as I though she was responsible for the carnage in the Middle East and North Africa in the craze of so called "Arab Spring".
• I believed in Trump and still I believe that the "misdeeds" of Hillary and Obama were exposed by Trump.
• The version of "exporting democracy" became a catastrophe for the region.
• Trump won and I decided never to leave Twitter again.
• Then I opened Facebook so that my profile will be accessible everywhere and I will make few friends.
• Then demonetisation happened and I was against the same and I had linked Twitter feed with Facebook and everything I was writing into Twitter was appearing in Facebook.
• Also I saw a few scary faces from my old company kind of the faces I did not want to see again, and so I deleted Facebook.
• After deleting Facebook I removed many Tweets which had gone into Facebook but kept the Twitter account.
• Then I used "Lists" where you did not follow any people but added them to a list and you can see what they were Tweeting about.
• I tried working without lists then the people I followed turned to 2000-3000 and it was scary.
• So I reorganized the accounts to lists and followed just 32.
• Slowly the number of tweets from me numbered more than 1300. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• Today what happened I do not know but I decided to begin Twitter with a clean slate.
• It is not like I had not done it before. 
• In 2011 I was posting in Twitter about the last movie watched and then after a few months I deleted all the Tweets and began afresh. 
• Same thing I did in 2012 after which I had deleted the account completely.
• What happened I was posting Whats App Status on Twitter.
• Recently one my Whats App Status was Despacito song.
• So Twitter removed the video and send me a warning mail.
• I had several statuses of Indian songs as well.
• But I doubt if I would have recived any warning for those Indian songs.
• So decided to remove all the songs with videos of songs as Whats App Statuses.
• But then thought why not I delete all the Tweets.
• So to begin on a clean slate, I deleted the Tweets.
• There were mainly three kind of Tweets, Normal Tweets, Tweet Replies and Media Tweets.
• In case you post a photo or video it is a media Tweet.
• In case you reply to someone it is reply Tweet.
• You write an original tweet it is a regular tweet.
• I deleted all, first the media, then the Tweets and replies.
• Normally earlier I used to copy the Tweets on Notepad and post to blogspot but today the number being so high 1300 plus, I did not thing it was feasible.
• Directly deleted the Tweets and then I proceeded to reopen another Twitter Account using another email.
• Swapped the username and so I retained my original username.
• Then proceeded to permanently delete the "regular Twitter Account".
• Now it will be permanently deleted in 30 days after which I can change the Email ID also.
• Thus I get a New twitter Account with Same user ID immediately and same Email ID after 1 month.
• It is like committing suicide but it is not the end.
• In real life if you committ suicide it is the end.
• In twitter committing suicide is a new beginning.
• Twitter in that sense is better than Facebook and Linkedin.
• If you do the same thing on Facebook or Linkedin it is highly unlikely that you will get the same number of friends back.
• It will be tedious process to add them all back in Facebook and Linkedin but certainly not so not in Twitter.

Baadshaho, Qissa, Subh Mangal Savdhan, The Hitmans Bodyguard

Watched four movies as mentioned in the subject line.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Baadshaho
This movie was watched at Carnival Cinemas, Rockline Mall.

• Movie is okay for a one time watch. 
• This deals with a treasure which is to be transported 800 kms on a road but does not make it more than 120 kms I suppose.
• There is plenty of double crossing and triple crossing in the movie.
• Who is good guy and bad guy gets blurred.
• But in the end they have to show that four protagonists are alive because this is a commercial movie.
• Interestingly doesnt show what happens to the policemen, Army and bad guys.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Qissa
This movie got downloaded through Tata Sky on Demand service into the pen drive.

• I must say that is the reason I like Tata Sky and have great respect for them.
• You never know what surprise Tata Sky will produce to you.
• This 2013 Punjabi language Indian film is must watch.
• It deals with a person uprooted from ancestral land and makes a new home.
• He has three daughters and when the fourth one turns out to be another daughter he is not disappointed but goes on to treat her as a son.
• She grows up as a man but since she lacks the "organ" she is unable to take advantage of one situation shown in which she takes a gypsy girl on a ride to forest and then locks her up. A man would unlikely to do so.
• Next day it is found out and as per custom she now has to wed "him" else die.
• So the wedding happens but unable to satisfy her but the man the father wants a son through her. But the boy who is actually a girl shoots him.
• And then the story becomes surreal and supernatural.
• The man returns as a ghost and the story is left for interpretation.
• He goes after his daughter and then the gypsy girl asks her to escape and then the man follows her and then probably "consumes her".
• Returns to the gypsy girl who now kills herself as she does not want to bear his child.
• Now the man oscillates between the dead and undead. 
• Like I said the story is left for interpretation to ones own mind.
• The movie is too good and one will find a lot of common with ones own life.
• Whenever a person returns to his past (maybe his house, or village, or situation) one may find oneself in the same situation.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Shubh Mangal Savdhan
This movie was watched at Carnival Cinemas, Rockline Mall.

• This movie deals with Erectile Dysfunction which would be quite common than most would like to admit.
• And in the end it is shown that the problem resolves itself.
• But it does not through various chapters in the movie.
• I guess it is okay to be watched once.
• All is well that ends well I guess.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Hitmans Bodyguard
This movie was watched at Inox Cinemas, JP Nagar.

• When it comes to showing the killings I feel this movie has shown quite a lot.
• And to make it legitimate they have shown the villian to be a "genocidal maniac" who likes to wipe out entire villages.
• Hence, in front of a genocidal maniac, the contract killers appear very tame and lame.
• The movie shows that blacks will only find Hispanic girls. Apparently there are no black girls.
• At a stroke the director has killed two birds with one stone.
• When the black man goes for the Hispanic girl, the black girls are removed from the picture and black man cant have white stuff. Thus the defination of interracial would mean black+Hispanic and not black+white.
• The French girl (white) is reserved for the white hero. So white will get the white. No interracial here.
• Also at Honduras bar the Hispanic girl kills Hispanic men and it is acceptable.
• That is the American view of Latin America.
• Overall I will say the movie is a non stop thrill ride and non stop edge of the seat entertainment. Very fast paced.
• This the age of video games and all and people have to be given something which will exceed their expectations. Same with the body count and killings.
• But still this movie is a must wtch.
• Because if you do not watch you will never know what the movie is all about.
• If you do not watch the movie it is like you miss the bus.
• This movie does not have kids gloves and is a tough movie.

Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insaan

• This blog post is about Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insaan
• Now I may not be a Dera Sacha Sauda follower but I have certain opinion about the Guruji.
• I feel he is being wrongly targetted.
• I feel that his name is "Ram RAHIM" makes him a target of RSS and their collaborators of Israel.
• I feel Israel feels anything which seeks to bring unity between Muslim and Hindus is a threat to them.
• For them and RSS their partners in India, they feel there should be no difference between one Hindu and another Hindu.
• Hindus need to be united under one motto and that is the aim of RSS and it also suits the Israelites.
• When Hindus get united under one banner they can be easily manipulated by the Zionists i.e Israel, Jews and their collaborators Hindus under RSS.
• That is the reason they took action against Sant Rampal.
• That is the reason initially when they came to power in 2014, BJP wanted to remove Sai Baba from temples but here the believers were too strong and the Baba is no longer there and so it became difficult.
• But Sant Rampal and Ram Rahim are still there and hence they re taking action on behalf of Israel.
• It is a long story which has been continuing for long.
• September 11, Parliament attack, 26-11 attack and Iraq distaster, Syria disaster, Libya disaster all are sponsored and coordinated by Israel.
• SIMI ban and Zakir Naik ban etc are all masterminded by Israel under RSS and their political wing BJP.
• Israel is using the services of whichever does their work fine and it seems RSS/BJP and Israel is a match made in heaven.
• Now Ram Rahim wants to bring unity between various faiths just like Sant Kabir and his follower Sant Rampal.
• This is unacceptable to Israel.
• They told to RSS, "you are working for us, do like this" and they did.
• But then BJP/RSS will not take action against any "Hindu" Baba like Asaram bapu or Baba Ramdev or Sadhguru or Sri Sri Ravishankar.
• Why because they are "pure Hindu" Babas and do the bidding of BJP/RSS.
• You do this for me I do that for you and that is their relationships.
• That is why hundreds and thousands of acres have been handed over to these Babas where they manufacture their stuff and give competition to manufacturers.
• religion is not important anymore.
• Millions and Billions of business is.
• What I want to say that BJP/RSS is selectively targetting the Babas which they want and some are doing the bidding for them.
• Like Sadhguru is telling "Give Missed call on a number for rivers"
• This missed call will actually be a conduit to push forward the "interlinking of rivers" which will essentially aim to deny Pakistan their water and also bypass states which have non-friendly (read non BJP) governments.
• Whatever I feel the man Ram Rahim Singhji is innocent and deserves bail.
• BJP feel he is threat to their version of "Hinduism".
• I have seen his movie MSG and his eyes have a compassion and healing touch when he used to say "Beta..." which means either child (unisex) or son when said to a male.
