Reviewed Maruti Suzuki SX4
I’m Lovin’ it!
(Updated Dec 19, 2007 05:29 PM)
I really don’t know if my review on the SX4 will add any value to any reader – the reason: already so many reviews have been penned down that there is hardly any point left to be covered(or debated). My allegiance to Maruti, however, obligates me to write this review. So, here I am putting my...Read more

The Confused Indian Argumentative India, The - Amartya Sen
Is this a review, or judgement on Sen's writing skill? Reading your 'review' all I decipher is that you were not able to 'swallow' the book. You haven't written your reasons. Or, if you have, which are mostly judgements, you have not substantiated your points with evidence from the text. BTW, the bo...ok is a collection of essays many of which were penned by Sen years before he got the Nobel. So much for getting high!Read More

Pathetic Maruti Suzuki SX4
...... Why would any one need a AirBag if he/she is wearing a Seat Belt... Now that's a good one! Honda City surely provides seat belts. I wonder why they are now introducing Air bags.

:-List Of My Fav Songs:- Twenty Best Mixed Songs
It's uncanny how your 'so-deep-songs' match mine. '... dard ka doosra naam hai zindagi...' was a very touching song. I don't find people talking about this one often. 'Katra katra' is my all time favourite. Nice review. Shom
Reviewed Parineeta
A Lively Portrayal
(Updated Jul 10, 2007 10:37 AM)
I loved watching Parineeta, every moment of it till about the end. Was it because of the old world charm, or the sheer simplicity of the story told at a good pace? Or was it because after watching Devdas I had little expectations from this movie? Or, maybe it was both. Whatever be the reason, I ...Read more

A Charming Ghost Story Paheli
Feels good to read a review from you after a long time. Haven't seen the film, though your review brings to mind a play I did in 1992 - Girish Karnad's NagMandal. It also had a similar intriguing theme. Keep writing more often... Shom

What to Say...
(Updated Oct 07, 2004 01:43 PM)
I cannot enter Spielberg's shoes, nor read his mind. What I can do is to assess his creative persona - what challenges this great movie maker - from the films that he has created. One look at the impressive list and we get the picture - ET, Jaws, Schindler's List, Saving Private Ryan, Jurassi...Read more

Memories Close to Heart IIT - Kanpur
Jai - Thanks for your comments. Once u reconciled to it, it wasn't so bad...:) Sachin - I am happy u liked it. I hear IIT-B is also very beautiful. Lyla - Too bad for the guys. But excellent situation for women on campus...:) Shashank - One advantage IITD has is its location at the heart of... the city, hence many interesting diversions...:). At Kanpur, the campus was infinitely better than any place in the city.Read More

Music says it all Twenty Best Hindi Romantic Songs
Nice choices, though I haven't heard a few of these. BTW, you must listen to the original 'Bahon mein chale...' by Lata from the movie 'Anamika.' The remix is nothing in comparison. Cheers! Shom

Haven't watched the movie yet (can u believe?) Your review is just great. Cheers! Shom

Troy - Illiad will cry seeing this Troy Movie
I wish someone would agree to part his money so you could make a movie of your own. Perhaps then you would appreciate the craft better.

Memories Close to Heart

As you step off the train, onto the crowded platform, the little kiosk with the white banner strikes you immediately - it says ''Welcome to IIT K.'' The guy in T-shirt and jeans holding some sort of a list checks your name, smiles and then politely asks you to get on the waiting white bus. As...Read more

ICICI Bank - If Customer Is Cool, Insult ICICI Bank
Fully endorse your recommendation. In the service sector, it is the people who make all the difference. I think, in its haste to expand, ICICI has compromized on people working for it. BTW, I have experience as a customer with quite a few banks in India. Citi, and HDFC seem to be miles ahead of the ...others. Good revu! - ShomRead More
Disappointing Lakshya
Moid - Thanx for the encouraging words. Khushi - Great people think alike! :) Thanx for the comments. Prem - Thanx for your comments. I think, as an audience, we are too used to watching mediocrity.

Excellent writers - My favorites Ten Best Authors / Poets
...choices! I would like to add two of my favourites - Graham Greene (His control over the language is amazing) - Thomas Hardy (Best descriptions I have ever read). At the same time, I have read countless short stories by many regional (indian) authors that have left a deep impression. You ju...st have to read some of the stories regularly published in 'Katha.' Fantastic! They make me feel proud that we have so much talent in our country. Cheers! - Shom Read More
Nothing gained Haasil
Good one, again. There are too many coincidences here. I am also from Allahabad. Tigmanshu was a classmate for 12 years. I have sent my script for evaluation to a producer. Am waiting with fingers crossed. Cheers! Shom
Felu Holmes Feluda Stories - Satyajit Ray
I completely agree with you - Ray was a living genius until a few years back. I love reading his stories; alas, he is no more to continue writing. Did u know that Ray was also an artist? His scripts/stories were mostly conceptualized using free hand sketches. A very good review. - Shom

IDoN'tLiKeThIsToPiC! Five Worst Reviewers on MouthShut
Agree with most of your views. Just a couple of things that kind of make a member like me sad. First, I really don't understand how one can write multiple reviews on a single day. For me, writing one review takes up a lot of time. And, I write only about things that I feel I am competent to write ab...out. I do enjoy reading reviews, though, whenever I get the time. To tell you the truth, I think quality outscores mere quantity when it comes to writing value adding reviews. This is of course my personal view. I really appreciate your ratings and comments. I think it is very thoughtful of you to take out time to read and rate reviews. Keep it up. - ShomRead More

I am a simple guy with simple tastes. Enjoying life, to me, means being with family and friends, goo...d food (and drink), and lots of travel to nature’s lap. I love long drives to the hills, reading good fiction, watching a good movie at a good theatre, sitting outside on my balcony with the crossword puzzle, and napping on Sunday afternoons. My wife, Jo, and our lovely daughter, Antara (she’s 1 yr 2 months old and already goes to school), are the apples of my eyes. I fancy writing as an avocation. But I am too lazy to be good at it. I have an unfinished novel to my credit, which I aspire to finish some day. I also have written a movie script, and maybe one day I will make a movie out of it, insha Allah! Meanwhile, I am making do with my other love – education. I have acted in and directed scores of plays when I was at college. Now, though, I only get to watch plays. I admire MS and the reviewers. I admire the vibrant community of people writing and rating reviews. I have come across some very good writers and some very interesting people here. I hope they continue their good work and enthusiasm. . Education, Literature, Theatre, Movies, Food, Travel (not necessarily in this order).Read More
