New York - review?

Read this in Tehelka...couldn't help posting it : )

Enjoy!



I had what you might call a surround sound experience. Somebody kept letting off a rather musical yawn while another produced a rich volcanic burp at crucial moments. I heard strange sucking noises when Mere Sang began to play, and i looked around to find some so-far sedate and middle-aged couple smooching furiously - Kaif obviously is some kind of tonic, and we never knew. The gay blades who came along sat slumped in their seats till John Abraham appeared - whereupon they perked up and announced, amid crackles, that he and Mukesh 'had chemistry'. When the movie ended, they were the only people cheering. Because the pasta-hating Irrfan Khan and Mukesh were now 'together', because there were so many butt-shots, and because somebody had finally thought of their needs while making a film.

Nothing like a different perspective sometimes.

I think a completely different perspective. But you saw everything except the movie. :-p

That was a funny one!;) But you could tell us more about the story and your views on unwarranted detention!
