Was happily watching Aisha with friend, drooling over Abhay Deol and generally enjoying the froth until she, Sonam Kapoor that is, appeared in the hospital (having apparently rushed there because her sister went into labour) wearing a jacket and mini dress with a Dior bag. Forgive me if I goof on the details here because I was laughing too hard to concentrate. Yes I know this is a film where style is what matters but a hospital? And that too when she rushed because her BIL poked his head into her room and said the 'drop-everything-grab-wallet-car-keys' word It's Time!
Couldn't they have shown her at least in skinny jeans or jeggings or whatever they are called and perhaps a loose top? Who wears a party frock/mini to the hospital in a hurry? Unless she packed her designer tote along with sister's hospital kit? Or perhaps rich, super stylish Delhi girl do these things. Who are we to know. Anyway forget that bit and the punchless end and the endless L'oreal and Dior ads and it makes for quite an entertaining film. Especially if you've had a bit of experience of the party hard, bitch harder Delhi chics the film talks about. Teeeheee ;-p

When some long lost acquaintance sends me a friendship request on FB, I assume they at least wish to say hello if not share their lifetime secrets. Was quite surprised to receive one such request from a former colleague I rarely interacted with. While accepting the request I sent a message to the ex-colleague asking how she was, saying hello, etc. Got this in return: 'Oh hi, it's you. I did one of those Find Friend things and I guess FB emailed all my gmail contacts. Never mind!'
Thankfully it was a message and not a wall post or it would have been public mein dhulai. I was a bit taken aback at first and did find it rude though as I thought about it, I couldn't help but be amused. In a world where friendships all but skim the surface at the click of the mouse, it's good to have a reply that's forthright. In whatever manner that may be.

Watched Tere Bin Laden. Badly shot funny movie. But not as funny as expected. Or pehaps my filmi streak is diminishing. Don't seem to love things as I used to earlier and usually find some fault or the other with everything. Age takes your blinkers off when it comes to Bollywood I guess.

That was extremely impolite of your acquaintance. I'm always annoyed with people who think they are more important than everybody else.
