the real indian maiden fantasy - my kind of girl.

you might have a point... thinking randomly... in my sleep deprived state... hmm... i saw parminder nagra in twelfth night - a beeb production... incidentally othello should be ripe for an indic as well... one of these days... when i;ve made my chunk of change... i'll pen a screenplay based on crime and P... with an indic raskolnikov, an ukranian sophia, a chinese porfiry.... based in TO of course... ok. how's your novel coming along... hope it doesnt cast a strapping punjoo with loins of oak ravishing the vestern beauties.

desi guy was neither mocked nor feared

i'm not a moviephile but even i can come up with the english patient - not a diminishing portrayal I think.

The American mainstream is much quicker to plug desi women into romantic fantasies

i'm sure amir khan is doing his best to balance the tilt, cf. rang de basanti, lagaan. funnily while i've heard this mostly from the asian guys - the women though, seem way more pragmatic - hardly a loss of identity for them. dont agree with your premise that there's something fascist about signing up an indic opposite tucker - dont know about you - but most of us are just trying to get by dude - any warm body will do and cant afford to be picky.

hey jyoti - just kidding on the fence bit (tho' it does exist and my LL uses it to sneak into the boatshow now and then) - i'll be good and pay the dues - good luck and hope it's a rollicking good time for all - well done on landing rogers.
BTW - you do realize - it overlaps with hillside festival - a little fly in the malai.

hey UB admin - the second trailer link goes back to the namesake... (any options with windowsmediaplyr btw)

i'm looking at the pic above and i find that woman in the saree really burning hot... and she's supposed to be the mamma right? .. i think i have the right to feel disturbed. omg.

and just for kicks - let me add - that i find that guy bachan to be really odd looking - the only thing i remember from this really forgettable movie is this guys giant ass - he is really built like a grandmother - ok and i'm jealous of him - gets to run around trees wiht babes, is probably a multi-mill already - so ok - a little bitter sniping wont hort.

ah... and it IS a stone's throw away from where i live - and my landlord tells me - he knows of a gap in the fence through which he sneaks in to the expos - i like the man.. :-) he's the sweetest 70 yr old you'd meet and spry like a spring chicken.

late hour - speed reading - i read your first line as "horse hunter" and was weirded out. anyway, brown-fob - i am partially guilty for the misinformation - people like i are vege by choice and our choices have varied dramatically - there was a time when i'd only consume duck - the gau is the mata but the duck is a step-cuz three times removed

Thanks brown_fob... that's it... i knew in taste at least ... i swung with the royals ... off to lucknow we go (I wonder how long before they change that name)... speaking of names, ... Basket Chat... :-) ... they come up with the best names these roadside vendors... have you had a "disco papeetha" in delhi... that is chat made with those baby papayas that are deep orange-red in color... highly recommended.

i suppose it is healthy that the south asian community's being more vocal and gay positive - locally they are screening TV commercials to spread aids awareness among the southasian gay community - also asaap seems to have a strategy in place - last year's print ads was geared to instil gay pride - this year, they acknowledge that it is unique to the south asian experience to stay connected with the family -- check the 2006 campaign with the punch line, "why cant i tell you i have HIV".

what the HECK is that brown_fob???!!!! I need to know.. so I can seek it out in the next trip.
It looks absolutely zippydoodelishtastic... are those yellow bowls consumable...?

paner kebabs and bhuttas (NEVER, EVER!! call them corn... that's sacrilege!!) ... and I was tickled to see that watermelon mint juice... it must be an indian thang...i make it at home - put watermelon with squeezed lemon juice and mint !!! ... and blend... and strain.... it is to die for on muggy summer evenings... I'm really leery of the roadside juices but i've had some made with bisleri water - and they add this "rock salt" stuff in it that gives it a lot of zip... O MAN!!! I'm going and getting me a watermelon right NOW.

do these guys shave their chests - do you think they sit around - muscles and all sharing tips on shaving - borrowing razors and all - that's really kinky man...

Yo PETA, how about spreading the love?

are you saying you want that bear to swing by your pad ;-)

remembering an ugly incident - it was either in the town of boiled beans or mysore - there was a rather forlorn black bear in a zoo enclosure with an erection - and some guys were competing on who could hit its rod with pebbles - the morose chap at the center of attention seemed to have given up caring - it was too searing hot anyway to move away from that little bit of shade available to him - yea - my memories of indian zoos are not very pleasant - this peta stuff sounds like a step in the right direction

my dear pajamahideen - any chance you could link to the s-poof video from kal ho na ho - know what i'm talking about machchan?
