I am a fun loving person in a strangely normal way... a confidently laid back guy who has renounced all the worldly pains and lives a life full of divine pleasures, masochistical anecdotes, drug abused environments, and a distrusted existence. reading serious literature has made me a cynical arsehole and therefore i hardly take anything seriously, be it my future, be it the present... only past matters after some time. i love to imagine the worst, so that even if a lil better than expected happens, its always a relief, and if it doesnt, well...i had predicted so, hadnt i?. hmmm... Interests are far and wide, but not seriously pursued, so ultimately i am left with a jumble of uncompleted exercises, kind of jack of all trades. And i guess being the master of a trade is simply no fun, it ruins the anticipation part of life. so my first interest becomes justifying myself at every available opportunity without anyone having asked me for it... among other things, my main passion is literature, and going further, indian writing in english. it simply is the best thing that happened to literature all over the world. A rock fanatic, i bought a guitar, and now its become a show piece, a martyr to pursuits started and left unattended, kind of accuses me from the corner of the room. And thirdly, beauty and nostalgia. 2 inseparable things, which form the major part of my day...

i saw this movie, and was spellbounded and thanx a zillion for that poem... i was searching for the name. get the soundtrack 'everybody gotta learn sometime' by beck, it is immensely haunting and a must have. keep writing Saurabh

Commented on zuludancing's review
you seem to be overly biased against mumbai mirror, without any good justification, and towards mid day. i am currently woking as a promoter for mumbai mirror, and i stand at a newspaper stall in VT from morning till afternoon, and i know how sales have changed. And maybe you dont realise that m read more...
there are lots of takers, and why do u think in that direction? maybe u are getting much too popular :)). but anyways, i have read nearly all his works, the omnibus, except a room on the roof, and a flight of pigeons. i wrote a revu on Delhi is not far: the best of ruskin bond. there has been an a read more...
Matwalaboy: didnt know u were a bond fan!!! why dont ever write a revu on ANY of his works, it would be nice to read it. and please check this one, guaranteed satisfaction..;) psyxx: thanx man, try the whole book, u will like it.

and i like to rock. Metallica never impressed me that much, all my friends are totally crazy for it though. Unforgiven, and wherever i may roam are my personal faves. otherwise Bob dylan, Pink Floyd, The doors and other classic rockers do the thing for me. with a lil bit o grass, if u please... ;) read more...

Commented on Mrs_Gloria_Scott's review
that was a honest precise revu, very rare on MS now. but u put forth ur opinions well and the book too. lolita still remains on my to be read list, and i dont think anything more could be added to ur revu. keep writing such good ones. Saurabh
Commented on bimalmehta's review
ur revu was pretty good, but i fail to agree about the movie. i think it was one of the worst movies i have seen till date in a hall, specially if u call it spooky. urmila doesnt suit in the role of 20 something, shes looks old and fat, and the movie fails to drive a point. the movie is certainly read more...
that is, me commenting on ur revu, as it is you write exceptionally good revus, and no one can fill Premjits gap, you have made the mark, nonetheless. have been searching this book in all the bookstores, and no one seems to stock. would give u a more sincere opinion when i read it. and i also mis read more...

that was a well written revu abt a good book, but i guess the opinions were expressed quite strongly, wether against hindus or not, doesnt matter. its not easy to brand religion like that, it takes 2 to quarrel. keep writing Saurabh

but then, i would say it lacked any thoughts on the role played by williams, of course you have well researched the whole movie, and perhaps it is better than the first one. this movie definitely was an experience to remember, and i loved it! keep writing, Saurabh
