Two movies - spoiler warning!

Varalaru - stars Ajith, Ajith and Ajith in a complicated saga of emotions, drama and dance. The story goes like this - Ajith is a classical dancer, whose wife-to-be walks out on their wedding date as she finds him effeminate. His mother dies of a heart attack while watching this, so he does the obvious thing: he rapes the girl and proves his manhood.

Girl walks away with tearful mom, delivers two baby boys, Ajith and Ajith. Ajith the father takes one of them, not knowing the existence of the other. He wants to ensure his son grows up normally, and does the obvious thing again: he pretends to be paralysed and spends the rest of his life in a wheel-chair.

Meanwhile, the other Ajith grows up to become a lunatic, hell bent on killing his father. En route, he rapes a woman, attempts to kill a man and generally makes an ass of himself. The third Ajith - ah, forget it. You really don't want to know.

A must watch, of course.

Next up was The Holiday, a heart-wearming tale of two women (Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet) who, having been treated un-heart-warmingly by their lovers, decide to exchange homes and find their hearts warmed by Jude Law and Jack Black respectively. Quite heart-warming, really. Especially Kate Winslet in a slinky black dress.

  5. Don't know, haven't seen it. Am already prejudiced against it, though. I don't fancy the desi type of movies, though I did hear this wasn't that bad.

  6. I suppose it's as good a way as any of working yourself for an upcoming Monday... getting sloshed and waking up with a killer hangover might work just as well though. Isn't this a bit extreme?

    You know, I'm not sure I can come up with a clever enough comment for this one.

    Actually, I'm not sure I want to make clever comments here anymore at all, in fact :))
