Counterpoint: The Gujarat paradoxes- Hindustan Times
2007-12-08 23:12:00 Counterpoint: The Gujarat paradoxes- Hindustan TimesVir Sanghvi concludes his usual anti-Modi rant with the following:Even if this costs the Congress the election, it is a price worth paying. Who would respect the Congress if it defeated Modi but adopted his policies and took the help of his former partymen? If the Congress betrays the values that it represents, then it will become a party that stands for nothing except for a lust for power. Better for the Congress to lose an election than to lose its soul.[Excerpts only - full article at the source]Comments: Perhaps some day Vir Sanghvi will write about the wonderful values that Congress represents. Please do mention pseudo-secularism, castism, corruptions and all else that you as an eminent journalist would have undoubtably observed!

Hindustan Times Scathing Review oF Saawariya
2007-11-12 11:04:00 Diwali festivities are over and now it’s back to business! We hope all our readers had a great Diwali and I bet many of you spent it watching either OSO or Saawariya. Those who still have not decided what to watch first maybe this review courtesy HT will help.Welcome to Bhansalipur. Here you can find the Arc de Triomphe of Paris, the gondolas of Venice, the haveli-like homes of Lucknow or Badlucknow, the carpet-dust alleys of Morocco, a bridge from Lucino Visconti’s Safed Raatein, a bordello from Baz Luhrman’s Moulin Rouge, and last but not the least, R K studio of Chembur.Now being a Raj Kapoor fan No.1, yours sincerely is certain that the great showman, in annoyance, must have just switched off all the lights in the heavens. After all, Sanjay Leela Bhansali wastes so much electricity, man power and fiscal resources that even R K saab could have made at least five masterpieces with the same budget.

Kajol -SRK to sizzle again in My Name Is Khan? - "Hindustan Times"
2007-11-11 09:20:00 The news is finally out – two of the hottest actors from Bollywood who set the silver screen on fire with their on-screen chemistry - have given their nods to their favorite director and best friend Karan Johar's next film based on a story that revolves around post 9/11 trauma by an Indian couple. We are talking about Kajol and Shah Rukh Khan of course, whose screen pairing would warm the cockles of many a heart.While it's a safely guarded secret that the Johar camp has been trying hard not to leak out, murmurs from the Devgun household have sent strong signals of the unconventional bahu doing not one but three projects, her husband's home production, You. Me and Hum Raj Kumar Santoshi's Ramayana and Karan Johar's untitled venture.That's quite a handful for this full time mother and now part time actor.What made her sign on the dotted line?

Hindustan Times Thursday June 14, 2007
2007-06-14 03:27:00 I just found this article in the Hindustan Times "It is curious that although sperm have been around since the beginning of time, we know so little about what is in them, and what makes them tick, er, swim. So scientists spend a lot of their waking hours trying to compare the structure and content of the proteins of sperm in various species, in order to understand their evolution and origin. For instance, the mutated DNA in the genes of the sperm of older fathers is believed to cause many genetic diseases. It is almost as if a man’s biological clock accelerates mutation in sperm cells in his early ’30s."
