Ok Ips - Since one thing that stood out in your comment was OM, I will join the party. But then another thing that stood out was that I will come when I like and can only leave when the bunch of girls from Looneville like. So I only request you all to be nice to me. Ab to humne soch liya hai . Read More...

Your warning is apt and bang on target. Probably there is a lesson in it for me. But I am not that bad either - or that is what I think. There have been days when I have spent too much time here as well. Now do give the names.

:-) Nice and short review. I have neither seen the movie and nor read the book. Could not follow all the discussion here in comments section. But tell me - do u think I will like the book?

Ipsi - So I am back to waste your space here :-) Just saw your comment to Nishi's review.

Writing on any topic such as this is a tough work. I like the way you describe something at times - 'A pure silk see-through nightgown' - hey hey. Your write up reminded me of all these old songs.
