I am a Tarot Card Reader by profession and a Columnist and Freelance Writer by design. Since I am already aware of what the future holds, I enjoy unwrapping the present :) P: S: I do not conduct free Tarot Card Readings. Moreover, I am offended to be asked to do so. . Reading, like my life depended on it. Writing, like others life depends on it. Traveling. Shopping. People-watching. Blogging. Trivia. Conversations.

LOL@ It Gives You Enough Reasons To Do So I'm not surprised that the movie doesn't live up to expectations. Loved reading your precise and concise thoughts on why it didn't:) Keep writing!
Dear Sonu, One of my most favorite songs sung by you is the title song of Kal Ho Na Ho, ‘Har ghadi badal rahi hai roop zindagi’ I had a lump in my throat when I first heard that song, and my eyes still mist over each time I hear it. I’m reacting much the same way when I first saw these pictures, a read more...

Excellent and wonderfully-worded review, Farid! I like that you mentioned exactly why you didn't like the film, and the bit that were bearable :)

Congratulations for your well written review being awarded Review of the Day, Shalu! Well deserved, indeed! Keep it up!:)
Loved reading your to the point and crisp review, Shalu! I had no hopes for this film and imagined it would be just another much-hyped film that would ultimately bomb. I’ve had a change of mind after reading the thumbs up Fenil and you have given it. Will watch!

Hi Fenil. Your detailed and well written review has helped me to make up my mind --- I will be watching this film after all, all thanks to you!:)

Hello Javeed, Many congratulations for this being chosen as Review of the Day. Well written!
Commented on jmathur's review
I personally really liked the movie. As for his portrayls of models/the modelling industry, Madhur is bang on target as that is how the industry/models largely are. I always think Madhur manages to mix a good cocktail of realism and entertainment, most of the times. Your review is very well wri read more...
Thanks for reading, Jitendra, and for your encouraging comments on this and my other reviews.Much appreciated.
Commented on suraaz's review
I agree with you when you say Reliance is now the No 1, in poor service. To top it all they are cheats too. Billng always has hidden costs which can never be explained. Great review! Hope someone from Reliance reads it and pulls up their socks !:)
