Happy 2011!!

2 yrs since graduation, passed without hassles... 2011 dawns, hopefully will be a peaceful and prosperous one...

Shutter Island... Wow!!!!!

Just watched the movie Shutter Island some time back... and my reaction in the end... mouth open with sheer disbelief. Exceptional direction, exceptional story and well acted cast! The only time I remember I had that kind of reaction was after watching "The Shawshank Redemption".

Truly Martin Scorsese classic.

The Legend of Tendulkar...

Atlast watched the Tendulkar 200 innings... and god it was utterly delightful :)

No slogging, pure symphony, the bat caressing the leather ball to boundary.

Never have I seen such a beautiful artist.

Personally, its hard to focus on any work when he's batting around (and that maybe story for others too)

I recall, while returning home on that day, when he was on 193, most people just ceased to do their chores and crowded wherever they could get to see the tv, and roared once he got past 194 and then jubilation for 200... What a sight it was, busy road going dead silent suddenly. Such is his legend... Play forever!!!

There are only two ways to stop time, either you travel inside a black hole or you see Sachin get closer to his century!

Alas, couldn't see it live :(

Please, not again...

I hate to write this, but its occurred here in Pune. Blast shattered German bakery in KP area. It was a very famous restaurant and in a very good part of the city. Somehow, always feared it, especially after some terrorists were arrested from here...

Don't have much words to say...

Just hope wounded recover...

Continuing from the last post, these are
Pencil sketches

My Paintings Part1- Colored Paintings

These are the paintings I'd drawn over last few years, decided to upload it at last... Most are water color and colored pencil/crayon colored paintings. Some are from internet, some are visualizations, action, sports and some are from popular video game images

Heartiest congratulations to A.R. Rehman...

I know I've been late in posting this... But better late than never.
A.R. has won pairs of Oscars... A deserved honor who's filled life into films through his melodious music always consistent with film's theme. It made movies like Rang De Basanti, Lagaan, Roja, Swades, Dil Se, Slumdog Millionaire, Jodhaa Akbar (er... I lost count of films with his scores, the list's pretty big) express more strongly. Personally, I feel his previous scores (especially Rang De Basanti, Dil Se) were surely better than Slumdog's.
It was one of the charming event of 2009.
