I was talking to my friend in bangalore and he was blasting this lady, sagarika gosh for some comments she made about the right wing parties.I thought I will look up what she said that made my friend that angry.I didn't find what i was looking for but i stumbled on this video.

http://www.ibnlive.com/videos/72492/debate-obama-an-ideal-21st-century-leader.html

(This is a three part video.. looks for links at the bottom left of the video)

I couldn't believe it.The topic was barack and they were discussing the american politics in great detail.I kind of felt that i was watching some american channel like MSNBC or CBS, rather than a indian news channel.This is pathetic.I was wondering is this what every news channel in india is doing. Or is it just sagarika gosh, who being the wife of CNN-IBN's Rajdeep Sardesai gets to do these kind of stupid program?.

Comedies of Kamala Hassan

Watching Enakkul oruvan was a great experience. The movie is a full length comedy. checkout some of the scenes



I was so floored by universal hero's acting that i personally gave him an oscar.For someone who has mastered the art of handling heroines, Kamal seems to have problem when it comes to acting with mothers and sisters...


Oscar award 2...
Kamal hassan is confronting with his previous birth thoughts in this song.Check out the scenes in the first musical interludes following the winch scenes.Couldn't help but give him another oscar for this performance...
