Mere Brother Ki Dulhan Soundtrack Appreciation

After Delhi belly, this is the movie where I liked all of the songs. Seriously guys, it is worth buying the CD for this movie or you can download all the songs on your ipod.

The movie opens with the title song. I can totally see this song becoming very popular in weddings. I like the Punjabi flavour of this song and love the dhols. The music video references a lot of other Movies.

The next song is Dhunki. Love the pop rock feel to it. I love Katrina's grey tank top in the video. Want so badly. I even went to Forever 21 to look for something similar. Choomantar has been playing in my head for too long. I think this is a great song to sing along to. Perfect Karoke song. Isq Risk is more earthy and soulful. Nice romantic song peppered with sadness! Madhubala is sung by Ali Zafar and is just so fun. Will be popular during Holi. This is the item song of this movie and I find the video funny. I think it kinda parodies item number in a subtle way or maybe it is just me. I like the song though.

So long Summer...

So, today is officially the start of Autumn. The leaves have started to turn colour, the weather has turned gray and the air is crisp and cool. I'll miss summer, the crazy humidity we have in Toronto, the clear blue skies, the pretty flowers.

So, here let me share some of my Summer memories:

I ate Greasy Indian food at a restaurant on my Dad's birthday.

Yum, I love Malai Kofta



I spent some time outdoors.

Scored some comic books at a Garage Sale in my neighbourhood. This is just a small sampling.

Ate some delicious homemade South Indian Food on Onam.

Tried on my sister's bling and enjoyed some awesome K-dramas.



Happy Birthday Key and other Shinee news

So, I hate Shinee's Japanese version of Lucifer. It just doesn't sound good. On the other hand, it is Key's birthday. Woohoo!  I hope this boy gets more attention in Japan as he speaks better Japanese than Taemin. I don't hate my Taeminnie, its just I am just getting sick of him being at the centre of every frickin promo and activity they have in Japan.

Brown Eyed Girls: Sixth Sense

So, the girls are back and they better win some awards on Music bank and Inkigayo because I like this song. The music video is fierce. I also find these girls can do sexy because they've got that added maturity and they look so confident doing it.

Ouran High School Host club Ep. 7 Link

Finally links to Ep. 7. It is raw but I recommend reading recaps at A Koala's Playground.

Also, link to my sister's tumblr. She is big Jaejoong fan so I expect lots of pics of him in the future. Also, Big Bang and Jang Geun Suk. Its pretty recent so not much stuff posted.

Seriously, am so tired from school. Yesterday was especially hellish because I came home late at night and had to read an article my prof. posted really late on the blackboard. Then, I had to wake up super early to catch my bus. I was seriously sleeping through my class. I hope to do a proper post tomorrow.

JYJ's 'In heaven'

Sorry for the lack of posts but I am back to school and very busy. Didn't even have the chance to watch Ouran High School Host Club and had to settle for recaps. Anyhoo, the new mv for JYJ's 'In heaven' is gorgeous. Love these guys and hope they have a chance to perform it on TV stations in Korea.

Kara's Step MV

So, Kara's comeback. YAY. To be perfectly honest, I enjoy their Variety appearances more than their music. But still glad they have a fun dance track for us all.



BTW, go to a Koala's playground for a post on Daito Shunsuke.

Pyar ki yeh ek kahaani: The Indian Vampire Diaries

When I heard there was an Indian vampire show, I was intrigued. So, this is an Indian show "loosely" based on Twilight and Vampire Diaries. It's got a female character (lead) that is the soul mate of our vampire but has a doppelganger who was the first love of the vampire and is now evil. Oh, well that is a direct copy of Vampire Diaries. It's also got a love triangle between a Vampire, human girl and a werewolf just like Twilight. I guess, Twilight was very popular in India. No, I am not watching the show. I am not interested in Vampire Diaries or Teen Wolf but I do like Supernatural. Jensen Ackles is my man. You can read more about the show at the Wiki page.

Here are the leads:

I just couldn't find a lot of pics of this guy.

Piya Dobryal (nice human girl) / Maithali (evil Vampire doopleganger) played by Sukriti Kandpal.

I've only seen the promos for this show and it looks like none of them can act. The guy who plays Vampire looks constipated. It doesn't seem very good but if you are curious you can find episodes uploaded on Youtube. BTW, why are all the Indian soap stars so pasty. They only pick fair ones for TV shows.









The Dirty Picture trailer

You know why I have a girl crush on Vidya Balan! It's because she is fearless in her acting roles and doesn't mind playing a mom with a kid who has disability or a bollywood sex bomb of the 80's.

Vidya as Silk Smitha in The Dirty Picture.
