Another gud weekend;) ---read also my thoughts on KANK

Had a gud weekend - ya i know its midweek for most. But we at SP Jain, have a holiday only on thursdays. Watched Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna at Cinemax, Infinity Mall on wednesday nite. Well, have heard most ppl saying its one bakwaas movie. But I somehow feel its a movie that conveys deep messages! < Infact, i believe u can learn something from every movie...directors, actors, writers arent stupid...there's gotto be a lotta thought b4 they come up with their creation> Although i do not appreciate the values that the film portrays, i think there are quite a few take-aways:

1) Relationships are built over time and with trust, transparency n care.

2) Treat your partner the way u wd like him/her to treat u.

3) When a relationship isnt working, its just not one person's fault. Both the ppl involved need to address the same. Never fight over who's fault it is....Understand the situation....Patch up...try making things work!

4) Listen, wait, think n then talk....instead of pouring out in a 'Verbal Diarrhea' kinda fashion! < I was short tempered before....can confidently say i have calmed down a lot over the last couple of years :)..it does take effort>

5) last, but not the least --- "Live Life to the FULL", enjoy every moment...u never know wats gonna happen next. < I always try to follow this one thing very strongly>.

Must say, am Blessed to have a Wonderful, Caring, Sweet Wife...very few ppl get to marry their gf :)

Well, i guess that was enuf of philosophy. I loved the acting talent of the BIG B, the smart, younger B, SRK, the ever lovely Preity, n the wide eyed Rani!! :) Its damn tuff displaying all those emotions. Although, some dialogues n situations < the balle scenes...aweful i say> are crazy, its worth a watch!

Last, but not the least, I loved the NY streets....i definitely wanna visit NY sometime b4 am too old.

My rating for KANK: ***

On thursday, 25th Aug, went with vinaya, vatsa n darshan to lokhandwala....we had the authentic Mc Donalds' Burger Combo Meal, then strolled around the Lokhandwala complex streets ogling < come on, am not a saint:)>, having fun, joking. The next pit stop was 'Maama Mia' ...had amazing gelato < Italian 96% fat free cone-icecream>. Next halt was at the Barista just around the corner...Had a nice hot cuppa Latte < the ever refreshing barista's hot cuppa>. Back to hostel arnd 11.30pm. Overall, two more gr8 evenings in my extended bachelorhood..hehe!

Cheers n Gnite...its 26th Aug, 1AM right now! Lemme hit-the-sack now:) Gnite n sweetdreamz to me...:)
