Ghanti Bajao, Ghanti Bajao

Ah friends, we meet again! Myself Baba Bangali, resident astrologer, philosopher and everything-man for this space.It has been a while since I was last here, and I’m here to ring in the festive spirit. The occasion is actually to mark the birth of my buddy JC, and our initial plan was to have him grace this space.

Review: 3 Idiots – You are the fourth

Well, you read it right and I did infact call you all idiots. Who else in the world would be insane enough to go watch a movie that claims its protagonists to be idiots.A friend argued with me that the movie was going to be a dramatic sketch about kids suffering from acute idiocy and how they cope up with everyday life. She also went ahead to add that it would be a poignant and [...]

Review: Avatar – Desi concept videsi effects

Yes we did really say that! Before you issue a fatwa against us, hear us out atleast once. Afterall even we ought to have a chance to save our already dwindling number of readers. Reviews are generally out by the weekend at DappanKoothu, but this time we waited for the bugles to stop blaring. Despite having watched it on opening day, we chose to let the fanboys go gaga and thereby not ruining anyone’s party. [...]

Folks, this is Munna Mobile reporting from across the Atlantic or whichever water body is closest to here in Denmark.

After the stunning expose in our previous post, we bring you yet another sansani khez khulasa that will change [...]

Attack of the fish eating cows

Brothers and their sisters, this is Munna Mobile reporting from the bunker bringing you news you cannot use! It was recently brought to our notice from a source who we wish to not reveal, about the existence of a weird phenomenon. Apparently what happened and we swear we aren’t fabricating details here, a cow was sighted lazily chewing on a fish. Now this isn’t like a smart metaphor we’re using for a popular celebrity/politician with [...]

Review: Rocket Singh – Mice are Nice

Ranbir ‘Rocket’ Kapoor just cant seem to set foot in the wrong direction and is in the form of his life! Much like the purple patch of Rahul Dravid in Australia or Sachin’s desert storm in Sharjah. Well that might have been a little over the hilt, but then the guy is making awesome choices. From playing a cad in ‘Bachna Ae Haseeno‘, to a slacker in ‘Wake Up Sid‘ and now a street smart [...]

Review: Radio – It’s bleddy complicated

This week saw the release of probably the most awaited movie of the year, Radio. Before you hack me with a chainsaw, let me elucidate on that a bit. It might not be the most awaited movie on earth, but on the planet Himesus it was the most awaited alright. Now many may chose to ridicule the movie even without watching it and some may even after. Like a Black Mamba waiting in a bush [...]

Review: Paa – Bring home the awards

Dear Paa, What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the words, ‘Daavar seth aaj bhi main phenke hue paisa nahin utatha ‘ or ‘Pandrah sau rupiyah ki pagaar mein ghar nahin chalta toh imaan kaise chalega, Gaitonde saab? ‘. What about my personal favorite where Anthony Gonsalves tells Inspector Amar, ‘Apun ek hi maara lekin solid maara na saaheb ‘. Let me answer that for you, these memorable lines [...]
