Amen.



this is one of my favourite prayers,I usually listen to this ...which helps me too pacify ....its touching ..deep from heart...From lagaan (indian Movie)
it says..
O....saviour and beloved ...pure and divine,
we have no one but you.

Ease our troubles..O lord,
there is no one but you
You are the one who supports us,
You are the protector.
we have no one but you.

you have filled the moon with light,
the sun shines only because of you,
the splendour lights and sky with stars..

O lord!if not you then who will preserve and
take care of this life,

O....saviour and beloved ...pure and divine,
we have no one but you.

O lord..we have a plea,
those who suffer grant them courage...
may hardships never defeat them..

To the weak give them protection
so there is peace....

To devotion ,give strength
O lord of universe ..
listen to this plea..
the path is full of darkness
Grant us the boon of light...

O....saviour and beloved ...pure and divine,
we have no one but you.

Ease our troubles.. O lord,
there is no one but you..

AMEN.

Guzaarish!!

 
 ..last night I saw movie Guzarrish....it came on netflix...and we have wii so ..its easy to xcess netflix.....
Guzaarish is an Indian movie hitting international movies ..top of the charts....starring...the Indian spider-man ...krishh boy Hrithik Roshan...and lovely lady miss world Ashwariya rai..(pride of India)...
I came from work ...with bad weather ..so thought of seeing this movie...to cheer up my mood...though it was not a Friday night..but still ..I could not resist....not knowing the real impact it would have on me....

The opening scenes ..of the movie....it looked like a haunted house..and patient on the bed...Oh God !!a quadriplegic ...what a tragedy....but then ....as it moved ..it moved my soul..ripping me to small pieces ...and then creating shivers of pain and headaches...

.Ironically it a wonderful piece of art portrays a journey towards death...called a mercy killing to relieve one from pain and anger...it is joyous, rapturous and ecstatic celebration of life....where a great magician becomes a slave and looks forward to death ....literally appealing people as it should be justified for him legally....
Aishwarya plays a graceful role this time and though her character is subdued she shows her power in few critical sequences and makes her presence felt strongly. Despite doing a non-glamorous role, her natural beauty and appeal was radiating.....The make up is little loud at certain places..(that is my general opinion!!thou...)

...I was getting sick as the movie ..moved ...scene to scene ....all goose bumps looking at how in a moment life changes and real worth is seen......my husband ..looked at me  said..are you ok?...no..I have nausea and headache !!I said...its sick....looking at me he ,he said...I have an engineer ..a team lead who is like this....a super intelligent guy...who is on wheel chair and my office moves with him....I see him everyday ..on wheel chair working ,giving orders in spite of his disabilities.... whose body is paralyzed but his brain is very active..he has all plans chalked out for a year ....I sometimes make coffee for him and put in his pipe ,where he drinks by himself....I don't feel sick....its life...!!!
...not in a mood to argue....I went upstairs and slept with nightmares.... got up with severe headaches...and popped up some pain killers!!!
well seriously if somebody tells me to watch it again ...I will never do!!!

life on a blimp..UP

I had a draft of this lying since last few months ..when I first saw the movie..I was totally flattered ..by the director s imagination..and when it won The Oscar I knew it was the best..Movie in animation Category.
...For those who have not seen this movie..UP..an Animation ..very close to life..Surreal ..life on blimp ,UP is a MUST ,to see movie.

I have seen this movie couple of times in fact its always there whenever I wanna see..The first time I saw I got emotional how short the life is!!!
it relates to every ones life,though an animation but for all ages...

Up
is also thoroughly grounded in real emotion and ideas of substance
Scene to scene it captures your imagination how ..from a childhood friends to sweethearts to a married couple...Ups and downs in life ...and then the Final stage of OLD age...where one partner leaves another...Carl and Elle

Being alone and wishes to fulfil ..Carl and his house soaring into the sky, where they go up, up and away and off to an adventure in South America...

The blimp..... Though the initial images of flight are wonderfully rendered — the house shudders and creaks and splinters and groans as it’s ripped from its foundation by the balloons....

The first half is excellent ...how tie changes with age....and then ultimately grey hair and a cane in hand..and second half ..how difficult life is on blimp...and a pint size stranger to add problems...I would say..its a matter of one .. prick and there is gonna be nothing....that's what life is!!

....it is a beautiful movie. Shows that innocence, aspirations,relationships, humanity, life's disappointments, bitterness and renewal of spirit can be masterfully communicated through the medium of animation.


...leaving the rest to see..and not to break the suspense....a superb piece of Art!

Kites!


Last night I was watching Kites....LasVegas .....and all big themes captured ...casinos ,night life ,bars and dances.....
I have been to Vegas twice but still I wish to go every year...Man best creation on earth ...excellent architectural facts and detailing....
looking at Kites I thought WOw ..look at the junior Roshan..all six pac and there came Barbara Mori with zero size ..great...but then what? it started dragging...with lot of spanish....how will people understand this part... I thought..English sub-titles....is it made for overseas..with the smooches and intimate scenes.....after it was a car chase.....seems like there was some confusion as to who is following whom.... The Spanish girl to me appeared very fake...Kangana Ranaut the Indian female....was still better ..with her looks and acting...
the story written is close to reality how girls ,marry for green cards crossing Mexico border and some of them are even sold...which is not shown...But there is lot of confusions with the flash back and present going parallel...in the script.
The script is not very tight..all haunting music made me sick...like sitting in the jungle ....I was in-fact irritated as to what the roshans want to show ultimately....
At last it was finished..HUH..I was happy...what piece of crap..was this....??
seriously I didn't like the movie...it was midnight...wasted so much time ...for all this ...
or may be I am not use to watching movies....my patience has given up...
I walked out ...of the room,..my hubby said wait ..this one is good...."Badmash Company"..I asked what?? he repeated the name...
Weird.......name of the movie...
no I am not interested for another......

holidays!!!!


..at home and spending ..some time with family ..is always fun,but I could see more then fun ..the house now looks like an amusement park.. The day starts at the same time and all I could hear is loud noise of TV..downstairs.. all I could see is a movie or game being played ...
The kids fighting over the small things and then slamming the doors at each other..Oh my God!!
lunch or dinner is like a struggle where the issue comes up... by the kids which movie has to be played.. ..I thinks television is the biggest culprit of all times... and with new technologies and all kinds of games like..WII ,is another headache ... it totally paralyzes the system of reading or enjoying with family...
Movies ...I was watching a bollywood movie Aladdin ..as my hubby got whole bunch of them.. ..I thought AB(amitabh bacchan)would have done a good job.. but it was absolutely useless movie..but I could see my hubby and son laughing loudly and enjoying stunts shown..meanwhile my little one(two years)and me moving aimlessly in the house... then again at dinner same struggle started ..my hubby played again bollywood movie..whats my raashi??..Priyanka chopra.. which was little interesting in the beginning but I lost interest when movie was dragged..my hubby again enjoyed the NRI jokes.. and what perception people have of NRI's ..in India... I left the movie in between with my little boy..as it was totally rubbish and since it was midnight...
In the morning when I came downstairs ..again ..my hubby was checking all the recordings ..of all the shows ..if any, we missed ..he told me "Perfect Bride"is recorded which we missed last night ...so again we started watching ..this show as it was the concluded part... it was for three hours... so without any breakfast ..just after a cup of tea.. we started watching the show.. and the kids started their daily routine of fighting ..and crying.. we had to ultimately get hold of each kid and tie them up in our laps..so that we could watch the show...but it was a struggle ..to watch the show..
After..the show I had a bowl of cereal..and when I came up.. started my day... it was already eleven am... after few hours had lunch and then ... a small nap.. came down saw my hubby on the skateboard ..with Wii both of them enjoying... and laughing...
Life is full entertainment.. few days back we were shopping for Christmas...then excitement of gifts.. I could see smile on every ones face ... which made me SO happy.. ...in return...
.Life is full of routines..little small things sometimes gives us immense pleasure or happiness....looking at kids sometimes ..when they fight I laughs so much especially at my little one who refutes back who still speaks in jumbled words ...
Happy..holidays!!!!
