Flop Show...!

Last weekend was pretty much a disaster in term of movies...!

As usual, I had booked few tickets for Saturday nights show at Sathyam for the new animation movie '9'. Alas...I got a lil' 2 drunk in the afternoon itself that i completely slept off and missed it. Not 2 mention that tickets were with me and 3 of my friends who were supposed to have seen the movie with me, also missed it...! As expected, I woke up to get an ear-full from each of them and all 3 took their turns. Anyway hoping 2 make up for this, I had booked tickets for the same movie at INox for Sunday nights show (and still regretting for that...!).

BORING- is what the movie exactly is. I shud've guessed it at the beginning itself, cuz for a movie hall with 300 seats, hardly 30 were filled up. If your thinking of watching this movie, DONT...! All in all, I was still happy that I got to do some shopping before the movie. Got myself some clothes & accessories, including a really sexy ring. That completed the combination of elements, cuz i now had a ring of different metal, on each of my fingers, lolz.



Oh yeah...n i also bought that Diesel watch. Priced at around 14k ($280), its not too expensive as some of the watches I've seen my friends wearing ;-) But definitely worth a buy...!

New Moon...!

All vampire lovers & those hard-core Twilight Fan's would know exactly what I'm talking about. Yes, the saga continues with the 2nd part 'New Moon'. After watching a couple of official trailers, I have strong reasons to believe that this is gonna be much more exciting than the 1st part.

Few things to expect...
- some interesting new characters have been introduced...
- story line's getting into a whole new twist with some Vampire elders thrown in...
- some major animation scene's & action...



Check Utube for the latest trailers and see for yourself.

Shifting Houses....

After what seemed as a never ending process of shifting from one place to another, I think i'm finally settled in one place, atleast for the next 3 months. For those who don't know, I was transferred to Chennai in the month of Feb and have been struggling to get a decent place for a nominal rent. Not to add the pressure of roomies; I guess i'm the most unlucky in this aspect. We were 4 guys (2 Mumbai + 1 Delhi+ me) who got transferred here and apart from me, everyone else has gone back to where they came from, while I'm still counting my days in Chennai...!

For all those who are new to Chennai and thinking of taking up a place to stay, consider the following:
1. Water supply through-out the year.
2. Frequency of power-cuts.
3. Water clogging during the rainy season.
4. Infrastructure availability such as Broadband Internet, ATM, Banks, Gas station, Restaurant, Super market, Liquor shops, etc.
5. Availability of house maid, laundry.
6. Mosquito & other insect issues.

It would be quite surprising that some of these might be turn out to be major concerns after shifting in Chennai, since it's still not up to the mark as Delhi or Mumbai. I personally believe that most of the area's in Chennai are definitely over priced, in terms of rent. Some of the decent localities on the OMR side are Adyar, Bescent Nager, Thiruvanmayur, Perungudi, Thoraipakkam, Velachery. If your looking out for accommodation more towards the center of the city, T.Nager, Nungambakkam, Kodambakkam are pretty good options. Places to avoid would include Medavakkam, Pallikarnai, Madipakkam, Nanganallur and other adjoining areas.
