These things are itself entertaining. If you are enjoying it with friends then joy is multiplied. So, we take a chance to have all these thing to-gather.
To go unplanned was the plan, so we choose Ahmedabad highway for the drive. A drive from my home to India Palace was ornamented by a small stop on the highway. It was almost full moon night. I once or twice experienced to walk on highway in dark night. So it doesn’t matter moon or no moon, to be on highway at night for sometime is a worth repeating experience.
I like dinner-session more than dinner itself. As Parimal said, sometime we like food on highway is more a psychological matter then its taste (Haas baitka nathi khava ma!). It was probably true for the dinner we had.
Chatting with friends is very good thing to do if you don't have anything special to offer to friends. I think with a close friends only you can chat on variety of topics like movie, sports, history, celebrity, personal belief and all in almost single chat session and one after another.
I am not a sport kind of person but I sometimes watch football games. And to watch a football match upto half time, by connecting laptop to LED, on some live streaming website is again I found different. Though I think to watch football on live streaming website is not good idea, especially when you are not a football fan. :D
I was expecting it as a very good fun, but I do admit it wasn’t that much.
But never mind, next time I will bore you with some other kind of the thing. :D :D :D

The Fountainhead ....If....?
Once again I am back with my favorite blogging subject i.e. "Movie".
Recently I finished reading "The Fountainhead". Its a must read.
After reading, I was wondering why we haven't had a movie in Hindi based on this novel. As you know we are masters in cut-copy-paste in almost every aspect of film making.
To those who haven't read it.. I wouldn't give a summary/plot/idea of novel. Just take a look at my characterization from novel to our well known film stars and actors.
Please consider actors from 70's and to be precis around 1975 year.
1) Howard Roark:
- Hero. Who else? The Amitabh Bachchan. Tall, rebel, genius, ethical architect. Those who have seen "Trishul" can imagine easily this one except Our Hero is bound to his principals and is highly ethical. Mostly we have seen Amitabh as an angry young man whereas here our hero is brutally cold. Example in novel is, one of the rival of Howard named Toohey asked him something like "Tell me, what you are thinking of me?" And the answers is "I don't think of you."
2) Dominique:
- Heroin. Parveen Babi/Smita Patil. Unconventional Beauty with brain, one deadly combination. Some may come up with apprehension for Parween Babi as an intelligent actress. But she was indeed, its just the image she en cashed. Nothing to explain for Smita Patil. Dominique is again complex to explain and understand character. Just like Smita Patil's roll in "Arth". Dominique marry 3 times in a novel with totally different set of personalities as husband. Just to destroy.... Now read the novel what she want to destroy.
3) Gail Wynand
- Second lead. Pran. The media guy. Owner of several newspapers. Novel shows his journey from rags to riches. He is kind of person who knows "What should be done. but he himself prevent it. And what can not be done and he tries to accomplished it"
Now onwards I wont classified characters and that is actual essence of novel.
4) Toohey
- Amol Palekar/Sanjiv Kumar. Critic, for everything and for nothing. Very interesting character. Very soft spoken and mischievous. Sometimes with common-man's reflection in his character.
5) Peter Keating
- Faruk shekh/Shashi Kapoor. "Chance Pe Dance" architect. Totally opposite of Roark yet they were colleague and at certain point friends. Loves someone else but just for success marries someone else. After reading a book you will know whether Peter is Pawn or a Queen of chess laid in novel.
About its scripting only Salim-Javed can do it.
For its direction we have tie here i.e. Ramesh Sippy(Sholey, Sakti) and Yash Chopra (Deewar, Trishul). But either one can do the best.
But, these days are gone. So we can just imagine if this could happen that it will be surely a milestone movie in hindi film industry.
But but but... what can be the title of this movie? That is upto you...so reply. ( I had 2-3 in my mind but lets get it from you ...)
