Movie Review: The Jungle Book

Mowgli is still a ROCKSTAR!
Waaaaooooooooo (Wow!) That is what you are going to say, when you watch this movie. A household friendly childhood name from 90s "Mowgli" played by the talented 12 years old Neel Sethi in a fabulous performance.

If you are an indian who loves to watch bollywood, you must see this movie in Hindi to feel the charisma and power of dubbing by one of the most talented actors, Om Puri as Bagheera, Nana Patekar as Sher Khan, priyanka chopra as Kaa and above all Irrfan khan will bring life to Baloo`s Punjabi character on screen alongwith many others to complement.

The movie has it all, the touchy and emotional moments from Wolf mother with human cub, to chulbuli friendship between Mowgli and Baloo with caring Bagheera on one side, till Roaring Sher Khan coming out to scare everyone. It has everything one entertainer must possess. A good portrayal of storytelling by the director Jon Favreau.

The only thing which i missed as an indian viewer, was the Gulzar saab song "Chaddi pahan ke phool khila hai", But thanks to youtube for adding that flavor after the movie.

 But even after that miss, you are thoroughly going to enjoy this fun ride with Mowgli. This is a must watch if you have a kid in your family. Do show them & allow them this 1hr 46 min captivating joy ride. The director Nailed it.  Go and live the Jungle in this Book.

                                                       GANDHIJI`s TALISMAN I used to be a kid a long ago, why am i re-iterating it, anyways. I mean when i was small, i studied in a NCERT books. And all the books before anything else, had a familiar face, of M.K.Gandhi with his Talisman on it. Gandhiji`s Talisman.                                                                                          And no teacher ever, ever, ever read that page or even tried to explain it to us, and thanks to them for that. Otherwise i would have never read it out of curiosity and my keen ness to know the meaning of it, would ha...

Earthquake Vs Nimbu Mirchi

Earthquake or Nimbu Mirchi, which is stronger?.........Strange things happen sometimes, earthquakes might be scary for some,but, are not as strong as the strongest bonded couple of Nimbu Mirchi (Lemon Chilli). Yes, thats true. At least in our part of the world here in India. Although all the cultures have there superstitions, thus, on similar lines we do have our own. So here i am, with my own version of a fictional truth. Two contrasting days :- Quake quake to QUACK QUACK, Nimbu Mirchi wins 25th October,2015. I along with my friend were having gol gappas (what could be the english name for our loved, round gappas) anyways, while having these round gappas, my highly qualified friend saw a lemon and chilli tied up together with a black thread (Nimbu Mirchi, tantrik type Yantra). Seeing this he just stepped aside making sure that he doesnt even remotely steps over this Magical nimbu mirchi. He forgot the superb taste of gol gappas and started thinking about this nimbu mirchi. H...

ARJUN and KRISHNA

DEFINITION OF RENUNCIATION AND SACRIFICE Lord Krishna said: The sages define renunciation as abstaining from all work for personal profit. The wise define sacrifice as the sacrifice of, and the freedom from, the selfish attachment to the fruits of all work. (See also 5.01, 5.05, and 6.01) (18.02) Some philosophers say that all work is full of faults and should be given up, while others say that acts of sacrifice, charity, and austerity should not be abandoned. (18.03) O Arjuna, listen to My conclusion about sacrifice. Sacrifice is said to be of three types. (18.04) Acts of service, charity, and austerity should not be abandoned, but should be performed, because service, charity, and austerity are the purifiers of the wise. (18.05) Even these obligatory works should be performed without attachment to the fruits. This is My definite supreme advice, O Arjuna. (18.06) THREE TYPES OF SACRIFICE Giving up one's duty is not proper. The abandonment of ob...
