Movie Review : Umrao Jaan

Posted on 6th November 20069th September 2016 by Deliciously Alive

Umrao Jaan is an adaptation of the book ‘Umrao Jaan Ada’ written in 1905 by a well known poet called ‘Ruswa.’ Whether the lovely courtesan, who was also known as the ‘heartbeat of Avadh’, and poetess existed or was the imagination of the poet is still debatable. His words were beautifully translated on celluloid by…

Movie Review : Dor

Posted on 23rd September 20069th September 2016 by Deliciously Alive

‘Dor’ is a thread or string. Something that binds things together and Nagesh Kukunoor couldn’t have chosen a better title for his movie. Zeenat (Gul Panang) is a tough, fiercely independent woman living life on her own terms in far away Himachal Pradesh. Meera (Ayesha Takia) is a traditional, duty-bound, daughter-in-law of a Rajput family…

Movie Review:The Devil Wears Prada

Posted on 17th September 200617th September 2020 by Deliciously Alive

The title of the book, The Devil Wears Prada by Laura Weisberger, drew me to it exactly 3 years ago. As I turned the last page, my immediate thought was “This should be a movie!” . No talk of the book being filmed happened for a while and though I was surprised that no one…

Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna – The Film : My Thoughts

Posted on 27th August 200611th August 2021 by Deliciously Alive

The bad press that ‘Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna’ ( KANK) got from Day 1 was the reason I preferred to give it a miss.  Nothing, not even Abhishek Bachchan as part of the cast, could change my decision. Then I happened to read this wonderful review by fellow-Caferatian Vandana Vasudevan and I couldn’t wait to see…

…Beijing

Posted on 26th August 200631st May 2021 by Mayuri

There is something intensely liberating about being in a place where no one speaks, or even attempts to speak, your language. This is why a trip to China, which included Beijing, Shanghai, and the picturesque Guilin, got the nod from me right away. My first morning there and I woke up to find out that…

Technology is killing life on the street.Chat rooms, text messaging, IM are all, technically, forms of communication.But when they replace yakking over the back fence, or sitting huggermugger at the bar or simply walking with a friend — as they have for an increasing…
