A Weekend Of Great Cinema.


Some of the Great Moments From the movie " Sound of Music"- When Maria starts blushing after an Austrian Ball Dance with the Captain, and the Captain's Fiance taunts her by saying" look at you you are all red ", Maria knows she is from a nunnry and is confused whether to be a nunn or to lead a happy married life. She leaves the Captain's house and the children only to get maried married to the captain after having a discussion with her head nunn. "Do a Dear" , I am Sweet Sixteen ", and " These are the few of my favourite things" are Songs that have created history and the movie would always be remembered for these songs.




Sweet Nanny " Julia Andrews. Her first movie Mary Poppins, is a vision and fantasy of young children being deprived of parental love even after staying with their parents, due to their over ambitious nature. Jlia one of my favourite actresses plays the part with great cham. the most memorable scene is when The Nanny Mary starts removing all kinds of stuff from her bag while unpacking, like the huge Hat-Stand, A Mirror and a huge Flower pot. This surprises the children, and put them ino suspicion. The Song " Chim- Chimney and " a Spoonfull of Sugar" leave a mark in your mind








" Growing up is the best experience in one's life. The Adoledcent phase where every one becomes a bi derailed from their goal and motivation , but the experience is sweet and wonderful. The story of a few friends comming from low profile family bacground but huge dream f being succesful, J Jeeta Woh Sikander is worth a place in the History of Indian Clasics. A story of a Boy who gets dstracted by Beauty and money and starts lving in the world of Fantasies returns back after being face to face with reality. The boy who wants to be successful but does not knw how turs into a man with a strong determination and goal. the transition shown is impeccable. " Pehla Nash", and the title track mesmerizes till the core and not forget " Jawan ho aaro" a real life Song .





Last Weekend i was all alone with no Phone calls from my friends or foes, No Last minute plans to go out on a party or for a dinner. Though the fact that no one remembered me last weekend does bother me, Am i wrong somewhere? did i do something that would hurt someone?, no gave me an explanation, I need one , i deserve one to know where exactly i went wrong. I wish they all call me up and atleast let me know what is the area of improvement. If i am your friend i deserve another chance. It is not that no one called me at all. Anil did, He invited me for a lunch at his place back at Kalyan. The thought of travelling far made me feel sick as i do it every day when i have to travell all the way till Malad for my Office. So i politely appologised for not making it. So what do i do??? i have a CD and DVD collection of Old-Classic and New movies. I Sat back watching Classics like " Mary Popins" ," The Sound Of Music" and " Jo jeeta Wohi Sikander". These movies bring memories dating back to my Old school days. I have grown up watching them, i have grown up Listening to their Music. And i have some excellent memories attched with these movies. like for example, Sound of Music was shown in ur College" at Ruias. We had this Ruia Film Society and i was a member of this society. Every wednesday we had a movie screened a classic or an Art Film, but good ones. I still remember how me and gauri a good friend in college had bunked lectures o watch "Sound Of Music" later i also made some great friends in the society, some truly intellectual friends, that made me feel proud of their companionship. Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander reminds me of my summer Hollidays at my Grand Mother's place when i was in School. And a great time that i had with my Cousins watching these movies. Movies, Music , and Novels. though they take u to a different world all together, to teh world of Fantasies, they Do play a crucial role in our lives.
