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 TALISMAN

                                                       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 have died. When i reached my 9th or 10th Standard, i thought why is this uncle Ji`s photo imprinted everywhere with something written down under. Finally i tried to read that, and more importantly and un-successfuly i tried to understand that as well. It was Gandhi Ji`s Talisman. It was the year 1997-1998. But i still remember it by my heart, and i am still not

CHHAJJU Halwai as Delhi CM Chhajju halwai look alike Delhi:- Amidst all the rift, tiff, stiff and stuff which is going on between LG ( the only, popular and known governor of india) & Mr. Arvind K. There is a news that the famous Chhaju halwai of delhi, famous for his honest samosas*, has applied for the post of CM. As between the rift nothing seems to be happening and it seems as if CM is nothing more than a spectator. Chhajju Ji is thinking that he also needs some chair to sit and think, so he applied for this position. And meanwhile, till the time this rift goes on, he can enjoy and feel the position of CM, which anyways has no powers. He claimed that his shop and its appliances are also having no power in the day, so this position of CM will provide him a very professional and homely atmosphere. He told our senior rasiya reporter, Mr. Rass ka Gulla , that he will be writing a letter to our PMs. 1 PM is Mr.Pranab Mukherjee and other one is Prime Minister. Fortunat

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
