Discovered Taxsmile based on a promotional email from PersonalFN, that offered a discount for using the services. It was cheaper than going to our company TRA, so we went ahead. After two years of using their services, we are happy to recommend them forward. To be sure, our experience is only ba...Read more

Great review. Is the phone easy for typing sms? I don't think it has a keyboard, only the touch keys.

Amusing gender-bashing here. I don't see why any of the cons are any worse for 'female drivers' than male. LOL
That said, your list of cons is quite fair. Only, I don't believe they overwhelm the pros-- the car is a dream to drive! The part where Fiat seriously goofed up is central locking. After... 1 year of launch, their dealers (and even CEO corner email) only give empty promises. In a developed country, Fiat would be asked to replace all Active with Dynamics, given how unsafe it is to not even provide the OPTION of central locking. But this is India meri jaan, yahaan Bhopal ke liye bhi sirf scolding milti hai, punishment nahi :-)
All in all, a brilliant product. For all new buyers, I recommend only 1.2Emotion in petrol and 1.3Emotion in diesel. Anything less is more pain than savings with FiatRead More

FedEx seems to be a popular duplicate name. We used someone called Fedex India relocations within Bangalore and they turned out to be good. Cost half of Aggarwal and finished on time, no breakage. Prof.Nair seems to have used the original FedEx, which explains the lucky $950 windfall.
In India, ...we have heard maximum good reviews for Aggarwal Packers but even they can cause breakage/ loss at times. Unless we have strong consumer court, there is no fear among any service provider to deliver right or pay penalty.
Good luck for the next transfer!!Read More

And congratulations on the fancy upgrade. Happy driving

Agree with you about the sluggish pick up and painful clutch. Not clear how you fixed the issue. So is it worth buying or not?

Celcabs has become unreliable even in Bangalore where they first started. Even their website was down. I hope they do better in Pune. Meru and Easy seems to have broken the back of all other operators...

I think it is more convenient and pleasurable to shop at neighborhood kirana store than in crowded, trashy Reliance Fresh stores. Nothing is very cheap either and the risk of expired package goods is high

Yummy review!! Loved that calculation at the end. So what is the best 5Lakh car to buy in India right now?

This review is close to my heart. I discovered MS while buying my own Honda Dio in 2004. It has now run almost 40K KM as well. This is a brilliant piece of engineering from Honda and an extremely convenient and safe ride for college-students and women. While you need to take care of it like Vishal s...aid, with regular servicing the bike runs as good as new even after all these KMs. Highly recommended!!Read More

We used to live right behind SV Road in Bombay. I remember when malls were still a novelty, the first Shoppers Stop opened near our house. We used to visit this almost like a tourist itinerary to lech at the bright merchandise and conspicuous displays of affluence. Over time, special occassions ...Read more

Just an update: I did manage to see both the older version of the movie and the new version with Michael Caine and Jude Law. While Habitat was not taking new members, I saw these courtesy the excellent collection aboard Singapore Airlines.
Both movies rock!!!! Go buy the DVD and watch it again an...d again...Read More

We talk of morals and easily forgive an actor who was caught snorting Cocaine!! On the other hand, an actress shows a bit of cleavage and she has to apologize in public. Such hypocrites :-)

Fenil, I always like your reviews but with this review, I notice a change in your style and command over the phrases. It was a pleasure to read this and it really brought out the best in the movie. You set the correct expectations by saying the film is different, confusing yet gripping. You have to ...see it again and again to relish it completely. Agree with your analysis of the production as well. Brilliant thoughts and even better written.
Keep it up!Read More

Does this mean you liked 'Luck'? And 'Kidnap'?
Agree about the slow pace (almost as if Imtiaz had a 90min movie that needed to be stretched into typical 3hr Bollywood size) in the 2nd half. Also agree about the dishy songs, which were main reason we saw the movie. But as a halki-phulki love sto...ry, like in the 60s (that form a big part of the narrative), we found it quite nice.
You should see Socha Na Thha. It is even slower and an even more beautiful story. Not the typical way we see love depicted in Hindi films, not even the typical narrative or dialogue delivery style. Just a good story with great songs.Read More

As always, a wonderful review. Loved the fact that you are a non-reader which makes you best qualified for these film reviews. However, you are missing a magical world. Once the 7th movie is done, I recommend you read all the books and see yourself transported to another realm. JKR writing is brilli...ant!Read More

Good point. Haven't seen yet so can't comment whether I agree but yes, the last 2 books would be extremely tough to film. Also the studio must understand that the audience for HP has grown with the movie, so they need not worry about maintaining the 1st film feel anymore.

Just noticed a funny thing about MS readership-- very few people write reviews if they are happy with some service. Mostly they come to vent when they have a grouse against a service. Negative and critical reviews also get a VU rating while favorable reviews do not generate much enthusiasm. I wish m...ore people would review even when they appreciate some service.Read More
