Slumdog Millionaire – Indian or Foreign

Slumdog Millionaire has got 8 Oscar Awards.It is indeed a great achievement. As usual, the Indian Television industry has got something to show and boast about. Slumdog is a great movie. But from Indian perspective, it should be awarded one more thing.

The Most Over Hyped Movie Of 2008-2009

 
It still remains to me weather Slumdog Millionaire should be considered an Indian Movie or a Foreign. May be, almost all the actors are Indian? But then, Lagaan also had foreign actors! For the very same reason Television media identifies Slumdog an indian movie, shouldn’t they have branded Lagaan a foreign film? If slumdog was an Hindi Movie, shouldn’t that be atleast got nominated into category of Best Foreign language Movie?

Just my thoughts on something that seems to be OverHyped!

Republic Day Celebrations 26 Jan, 2009

India just celebrated its 60th Republic Day Celebrations.

26th January, the Republic day of India. I can write an esaay on the same. (As if I have never done that! It was a favourite during the school days).

26th January also reminds me of an earthquake in Gujarat in 2001. Students were lucky that they were in parade, and not in the old structure of their shools.

Proud to be Indian

People who have missed the parade can see it at  Republic Day Celebrations. Please don’t ask me what is the importance of that parade!

Leap Seconds

Was just going through Python Library Reference on time and found that it supports seconds from 0 to 61.

This was really surprising, and it was due to “Leap Seconds“.
Sometimes one second, and sometimes 2 seconds have to be added! (or removed)

The Girl who silenced the world for 5 minutes

She silenced all the spectators for 5 minutes. The audience represents a class of people, claiming to be, caring for this world. She expressed her real concerns about the word today, and tomorrow, and the day after that may never come. Take your time to listen to this.
