Movies

Being a true blue Desi I love movies. I have so far not recorded the movies that I seem to be watching all the time. Well there is a 1st time for everything so here goes. We are now into 13 days of 2010 and I will list the movies I have seen so far . The opinions are of yours truly alone and will be totally different I presume from that of the literati and I do a lot of rewatching my fave movies so if you keep seeing repeats remember its just me rewinding to memory lane ...

1.Peter Pan and Wendy(2003)
And what of the boy who never grew up? Well lets just say he still listens to Wendy's stories even now when she's a woman, and he always returns to Never Land, destined to never grow up...

I love this one just for the dreams

2.Dil Chahta Hai ...(2001)

was missing a friend badly ...what better than this ode to friendship ..kabhi socha hai ke roz milna to door hum saal mein ek baar mile to bahut hai ( so trueeeee) ....

3.Rang De basanti (2006)
College ke gate ke is paar hum zindagi ko nachaate hai aur
dujji taraf zindagi hume... tim lak lak de tim lak lak...

saw this with Bhai ...

4.Andaz Apna Apna ..(1994)

Again with Bhai and was a whole ride back to nastalgia of day when life was not so complicated

5. Kabuliwala (1961.)

the songs Aye mere Pyare watan and the other fave oh Yah Qurbaan .. I love the lines

o yaa kurbaan
Vo aankhen thi dilabar ki yaa nargis-e-mastaanaa
Dekhe hue us but ko ab ho gayaa zamaanaa

o sabaa kahanaa mere diladaar ko
dil tadapataa hai tere deedaar ko

O yaa kurbaan
Dekhenge kab vo suurat jis pe bahaar sadake
Yeh dil to kyaa hai yaaron kaabul kandhaar sadake

Kis tarah bhuule nigaah-e-yaar ko
Dil tadapataa hai tere deedaar ko
o sabaa kahanaa

o yaa kurbaan
Kaisi hai ye kayaamat, o tuu hi bataa kudaayaa
Jitanaa bulaayaa us ko utanaa vo yaad aayaa
kyaa karaar aaye tere bimaar ko dil tadapataa hai tere didaar ko o sabaa kahanaa
