Have you had a hell of a week:lost your job, flunked a test, your exam got cancelled and rescheduled three times in one day,there’s a strike in the locality, the newspapers are splashed with the beating and death of two innocent guys, sixty six people died in a remote district in your county in the last two months from diahhorea and all the T.V reports is the memorial of M.J and his message;love and peace, you have been secluded from the world for almost a fortnight now, Ryands philosophy is slowly getting to you and you can’t help sleeping for ten hours. What do you do? Go out for a movie. That’s what I did
If you decide to watch “Kambaqt Ishq” two things will happen: you will be emancipated or you will feel suicidal. Well, I hugged escapism and Binni nearly passed out.

We decided to meet sharply at 7:30. After a long time I am on time but sadly she isn’t. I watch all these class bunking teenagers count their tiffin money slowly and hand out to the cashier. I buy two tickets for “New York”. The movie starts at 8:10 she arrives maybe at 8:20.
We walk into the hall. Akshay Kumar is giving a flying kick.”Hey! It’s the wrong hall.” “C’mon let’s refresh our minds for once, the three sullen faces from New York was bugging me”. We find our seats and decide after half time it’s going to be ‘New York’.After half time we didn’t find the other hall so we got stuck.
The first half of the movie was watchable but the second half: forget it. At least I was laughing at the jokes but B was too sullen. The first half she put up half smiles and later slept. Her plight was more enjoyable than the movie. She hid her face inside her elbows, straightened her legs, rested awhile on my shoulders and then crouched in her seat and slept.
Akshay Kumar is a stunt man and Kareena is a model cum doctor. He’s a hot male and she’s a hot female. So, what are they supposed to do? Fight with each other, fall in love, grow apart and make up on the day either one of them is getting married. It’s the same story with every Hindi serial or commercial cinema. K.I isn’t an exception.
Why the Bollywood meets Hollywood tag. I wish they hadn’t. What is Syllvester Stallon doing in the movie? I forgot Josh Brandon is their too and who’s Denise Richards?

The worst part was that speech by Akshay Kumar while receiving an award from Syllvester. When he bowed down to touch his feet I cringed in my seat.That was too much…

If not Kambaqt Ishq the movie should be named ‘Bitch’, ‘Dog’ or ‘Stunts’. I must say Akki and Kareena both look hot. Binni felt so hot she nearly blacked out in the hall.
Akki looks more hot then Josh Brandon and I just didn’t get the joke at once. Someone shouts “Hijack” on a plane and every one is frightened. He meant “Hi Jack!”
No harm in watching the first half and the second half if you can bear it. The good thing is you will escape no doubt to another world where there’s nothing to match reality.At least Akki’s got a hit after a series of flops and I must say he’s damn stylish.

Hi Dikshya. I’ve following your blog for sometime now and I must say I’m mighty impressed by you,especially since you’re a Nepali just like me! It’s really nice to know that Nepalis can write in an interesting and engaging manner too, as compared to the boring and bland writing of other Nep. bloggers.
I’ve too started a blog in your inspiration:
http://crimsonwriter.wordpress.com
See even our URLs rhyme ‘A fighter’, ‘crimson writer’! jokes aside, you made me take the blogging initiative despite being just an aspiring Nepali writer.
Thanks and keep blogging!
