New York: Worth A Watch!

An eye for an eye will make whole world blind. Although the peace Guru Mahatma Gandhi said these inspirational words decades ago but they still hold the same meaning and important in this world of today. Resolution for a problem is only possible when either side of conflict is ready to understand the stand of other. If you look around the world of today, all the long running conflicts are those where neither side is ready to understand other’s stand. Be it Indo-Pak, Israel-Palestine or the latest America-rest of world.
New York is not a simple movie, its bird’s eye view of the on-going racial conflict between Islamic radicals and US government. For the very first time after watching this movie you might have your sympathy for both sides of conflict and apathy towards the people who are unnecessarily igniting this not so necessary conflict into a war zone.
Movie starts in backdrop of an undercover operation to foil the ploy of yet another terrorist strike on US soil. As the series of events start taking shape it becomes quite vigilant that the penultimate end would be highly engrossed with emotions and thought provoking, for a change a complete contrast to usual bollywood flicks. This movie is a visual representation for aftermath of 9/11 as to where US stands. It shows their amateur approach to start with resolving the conflict which later puts them into trouble. It shows the wrath and agony of people who were detained after 9/11 for no reason, tortured, harassed and molestated which later provoked them to take avenge towards this injustice against a specific race. This is far superior movie to be just called a bollywood masala movie, it’s a retrospective answer to many unanswered questions to both US and Islamic extremists.
Performance wise it’s difficult to choose if John was superior or Neil. Both have surely performed one of their best for many years to come. John’s transformation from a true patriot to terrorist is not only a heart warming cliché for those who had really gone through such horrifying times but it also brings sympathy for those people who got mislead to path of destruction and revenge. On the other hand Neil played touch perfection role of a friend who lets himself on line of fire just to see well being of his loved one. The passion of his love towards Maya (Katrina) earlier and later his compassion to the same woman just to see her happy. His portrayal of a helpless person under adverse circumstances being pulled by his moral & ethics and trust & honesty towards his friends. He played this entangled role better to anybody, kudos to these two stars for putting such great performance. Katrina has finally arrived to acting for good. Her unquestionable love and care towards Sameer (John) is really touching. Every tear she drops for him is worth it, a classy performance from her too. Last but not the least Irfaan Khan who knows how to perform, he makes all the roles he play one for him. His implacable and flawless acting skills make him one of the best contemporary actors India has produced in recent times.
Kabir Khan’s approach as director is impressive, first he took Afghanistan as his subject in Kabul Express and now the more controversial post 9/11 issue and both times he did complete justice to the subjects. Yaaron song is surely going to be rhymed for years to come and so the movie will be remembered as one of the true portrayal of post 9/11 aftermath.
Don’t expect an entertainer while you go watching this one, I am sure you would be disappointed but it’s worth to be seen.

Take My Breath Away!!

You’re the cause of my beautiful dream, you’re the cause to the melody and rhythm of my heart beats.I am enjoying being in love with you. You're cause of this sweet pain in heart and I'm lost in the flood of your love every time you appear infront of me (Even if this means in dreams).It's really unfair though that you keep this innocent smile on your lips as me lost in your love means nothing to you.


Nights you made me suffer like fever and its still unfair that you stay un effected by my love, Intentionally making me go crazy in your love and now you are turning face away. I know you don't want to show your face to me when you blush while I see you with love in my eyes.

I am still enjoying the feel of being in love because its you with whom I am madly in love with.Life is more beautiful since I started loving you. I don't know how many times this feeling came and went without getting expressed while we looked into each others eyes, lost some where I don't know..

I feel the world is in your love filled eyes and feel all inspire to love seeing your charm, I feel you communicate lot with me through your eyes, a deep sea of emotions drowning me deep into tears when I see you sad and filled with tears of joy looking at you rejoicing every moment when we are around together.

You attract me and inspire me to fall in ocean of your love again and again, of course you're the cause of all my beautiful dreams. This truely is one journey I had waited for so long and so badly that now when the time is flying by, I am just waiting for that moment when I spent rest of my life with you. There are lots of moments in life which everyone remember but there are very few moments which take your breath away, this feeling of being breathless is all due to one reason and you know very well what that is.
