Rahul misses out on three counts. He is a great No 3, but as on date, there is no one better at No 3 than Ponting. Rahul is not as flaboyant as Lara and finally, in recent times, I have not seen any batsman perfecting the art of playing with tail as Inzamam did.

Well, I just edited my review on the Indian Cricket team for 2007 world cup and this one caught my eyes. Being an avid cricket buff, I could not help but to give me current world XI. Most of the team is based on their current form.

It is difficult to be a Super Star in South movies and makefilms which are normal. And if the names are Chiranjeevi and Rajanilkant, it becomes all that more difficult. Film starring Chiranjeevi has to be rich, super human..or atleast Chiranjeevi believes so.

There was an air of expectations before the film started and the first 15 minutes built the expectations only to fizz out during the next 2 hours 40 minutes.

You are true, but, I already warned you in the beginning of the review. I believe as long as they dont create negatievs, it is all right not to give positives through cinema.

Though I thought the review was good, I dont agree with your last comment on Main Hoon Na. It was promised to be an entertainer and it was an entertainer. It was never meant to be a meaningful film.

There are two kinds of people who watch films. The first category like to watch meaningful, well written, esthetically well made films. The second category, just go to the cinema to have a good time forgetting what is happening outside. If you are of the first category, keep yourself at a fair d...Read more

If you see a batsman driving a ball out side the off stump towards deep mid wicket to a boundary, rest assured you are watching Laxman. He is simply a pleasure to watch. He is effortless and pure timer of the ball.

The comment you have passed is very much true. But, I believe Sourav was the same from 92, when he made his debut. The very fact that he backs his team members to the hilt and he gets the team he wants is a testimony of the respect he demands from the board. (When was the last time we heard from a c...aptain of India that he did not get the team he wanted).Probably, Dalmiya has something to do with this, but since Dalmiya has two more years to go, I beleive Indian cricket will see the greatest captain ever. I dont care, if regional partiality has given him the free hand to do whatever he is doing, because he is winning and also remember the very pathetic regional quota system has brought Sourav into limelight.
I guess, he would not have problems until Dalmiya is the president and by the time new president comes, Sourav would have been the greatest captains for India.Read More

Ramu has always maintained that he makes films the way he wants them to. He started off in Telugu the same way and has continued to do the same in Hindi as well. There are lot of technically brilliant movies he made, which were flops. But, they all can watched atleast one time to get a visual effect.... If you are looking for an entertainer, please do not expect every movie of Ramu to give you that. HE DOES NOT MAKE MOVIES FOR ENTERTAINMENT.Read More
