Fanaa

Movie: Fanaa
A friend lured me away from the whodunit that I was glued onto, to catch Fanaa on Friday. Being the big Kajol fan that I am, I didn’t wanna miss watching her comeback flick and I gave in after half-hearted protests. To my surprise, we managed to get tickets for the show. Unfortunately, it turned out to be the biggest disappointment after my 10th Standard Board Results. The movie moved way too slow in the first half, and it really dragged in parts. But for the kid sitting next to me  who pestered her father with her incessant questions (and he really deserves a place on the cover page of Parenting magazine ), I would have drifted off to sleep...Sigh!
I must admit though, the second half did make me sit up on the edge of my seat, (much to the dismay of the short lady sitting behind me) only to settle back when I saw glimpses of the stiletto murderer from ‘ The Eye of the Needle’ – Ken Follet. The story was too predictable as the end was a rip -off from the same book. Kajol and Aamir Khan acted well, but their mediocre performances did nothing to add value to the movie. The songs were just about OKAY. All in all, the movie was nothing out of the ordinary despite having a great star cast and the hype surrounding it.

The only saving grace? The Shayaris! (though I still don't know what Fanaa means:D)

I only hope the Da Vinci Code doesn't disappoint me as well.

Creativity

At the end of a Creative Writing activity that I'd taken up, an 8 year old came up with this fantastic piece!
A bee stung a drunk,
and then it went,
and dashed against a tree trunk.
