Break Ke Baad, 1st look

This week the theatrical trailer of Kunal Kohli's next film, Break ke Baad was released.


















I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to this movie or not. I like both lead actors, Deepika Podukone and Imran Khan. The first look/trailer of a movie should have you hooked and make you realllyyyy want to see the movie. But this just doesnt do it for me yet.



It looks cute but is lacking something. Not to mention, I cant stand Deepika's short hair cut, it looks like a cheap job. The layers look horrible. She looks so much better with long hair like in Love Aaj Kal.




Here's the trailer






What do you guys think?

Konkona Sen Sharma Weds Ranvir Shorey

Congrats to Konkona and long time, live-in boyfriend Ranvir on their wedding celebrations. They finally got married this weekend in a very small and intimate wedding. Both of them are really good, under rated actors. I loved Konkona in just about all of her movies, and looved Ranvir in "Pyaar Ke Side Effects."

Konkona looked lovely in her grandmother's jewelry and a traditional Bengali dress. Simple yet pretty.





















They look so cute and in love. I love this picture of her smiling while he's putting sindoor in her maang. :-)

















Congrats Mr and Mrs Ranvir Shorey!

Style Check!

There's a few different style checks I want to share with y'all today. The first one, once again, is no other than Dia Mirza! If you cant already tell, I think she has fabulous style. It's either that or one really good stylist! What ever the case may be, she's blowing up my blog! haha

The picture is also of Dia Mirza. Looking stunning in a white, off-shoulder dress with nude/gold heels.
Very glamorous and sexy!

Another beauty who always looks super cute in Pink, Preity Zinta.





































But hottest of all looked Priyanka Chopra as the Show Stopper for Manish Malhotra at Lakme Fashion Week. Manish Malhotra is my all time FAVORITE Indian clothing designer. Hands down!!








































Way Back Wednesday!

Late again.... I know! blame it on stress!

This song brings back soooo many memories for me! Jagjit Singh and Asha Bhosle both did such an amazing job of capturing real feelings. I remember sitting in my room late at night, doing homework. As soon as this song came on, I dropped everything I was doing, just to sit back and day dream. hehe.. so "Bollywood" of me! :-)

Album: Hote hote pyar hogaya
Song: Jab Samne Tum Aa Jate Ho



LYRICS:

Dekh ke tumko, hosh mein aana.. bhool gaye.. yaad rahe tum... aur zamanaa.. bhool gaye!

Jab samne tum,
Jab samne tum, aa jate ho
kya janiye kya, ho jata hai
kuch mil jata hai,
kuch kho jata hai
kya janiye kya ho jate haii

Chaha tha yeh kahenge,
Socha tha woh kahenge
Aaye woh samne toh,
kuch bhi na kahe sakhe hum
bas dekha unhe hum

Dekh kar tumko, yakeen hota hai
Koi itna bhi haseen hota hai
Dekh pata hai kaha hum unko
Dil kahi hosh kahi hota hai

Jab samne tum, aa jate ho

kya janiye kya, ho jata hai

Aa kar chale na jana,
aise nahi sataana
De kar haseen labon ko
Aankhon ko mat rulana
Dena na beqarai dil ka karaar ban ke
Yaadon mein kho na jana,
tum intezaar ban ke, intezaar ban ke

Bhool kar tumko na jee payenge
Saath tum hogi jaha jayenge
Hum koi waqt nahi hai hum dum
Jab bhulaoge, chale ayenge

Ha ha ha Jab samne tum, aa jate ho
kya janiye kya, ho jata hai

kuch mil jata hai,
kuch kho jata hai
kya janiye kya ho jate haii






Hope you guys like it!

If you want me to feature a song that you love, let me know! And I'll try to squeeze it into my list! :-)

I heart Reality TV!

First off, if there's anything you know about me, then you know that I am a reality TV junky! My absolute all time favorite of these is 'Big Boss'(India)! Big Boss is the equivalent to the American/British 'Big Brother' show. You have a  certain number of housemates all staying under one roof and doing all kinds of different activities or challenges and once a week the housemates vote on who they want to evict from the house. The difference between the American and Indian versions is that the housemates in the Indian show are all famous people (or were famous at one time). I fell in love with the show this past season and even made the hubby addicted! It's just THAT good!

This past season the host was Amitabh Bachchan. The housemates were music composure/director Ismail Darbar, former big actress Poonam Dhillon, actor Kamaal Khan, actress/model Sherlyn Chopra, son of boxer/actor Dara Singh- Vindu Dara Singh, former model/actress and current doctor Aditi Gowitrikar, TV and movie actors, husband and wife Bhakhtiyaar and Tanaaz Irani, famous actress/model Rakhi Sawant's mother Jaya Sawant, actress Shamita Shetty, fashion designer Rohit Verma, famous comedian Raju Srivastav, famous cricketer Vinod Kambli, German model/actress/singer Claudia Ciesla and top fashion model Parvesh Rana.  WOW.. can you say a houseful of DRA-MA!! :-) it was awesome!

This is the picture of Big Boss Season 3 Cast, minus Parvesh Rana. He was added later through a public vote. The final winner of the show was Vindu Dara Singh. And boy did he play it well!

I cant wait for the new season to start. I'm constantly checking up on news about the house and who's going to be in it this year. I know I am super excited to know that Salman Khan is going to be this year's host! woo hoo!! You know he's definately going to make sure everyone has fun! This show is going to be his life for the next 6 months(or however long it is this time). He ditched his 'Dus Ka Dum' show just for this! :-O

The new season starts in October, and trust me, you will DEFINATELY be seeing lots of blogs about the show! I'm going to be watching it religiously every single day. So I'll update you on the gossip if you dont get the chance to watch. Andddd you can come and talk to me about the show!

NEW BIG BOSS SEASON 4 PROMO



BIG BOSS SEASON 4 PROMO 2




BIG BOSS SEASON 4 PROMO 3




ONE MORE PROMO!





Get excciiiited ya'll!! It's going be the best show this fall! :-)

Action Replay




I'm loooving Aishwarya's outfits in this movie! She looks stunning like usual but I'm just not sure if I really want to see the movie though. Looks kind of stupid to me.



I realllyyyy want a salwar kameez like this one! Ive been bugging the hub about getting one just like it when we go to India later this year! haha

Is she stunning or what!?






































Back off.. this salwar kameez design is all mine lol.



Are any of you looking forward to this movie?

Review: We Are Family























Last week I got the chance to watch 'We are family.' Sorry I didnt write the review any sooner, but i got extremely busy with LIFE! Anyways, I went into this film open minded. I was in the mood to watch a Bollywood movie and this hit the spot for the night. And for everyone wondering, yes this movie is like 'Stepmom' but if you are a lover of Bollywood films, you'll still give it a chance like I did. :-)

















First off, I'm not a big fan of Arjun Rampal. I am not one of those girls who thinks he's extremely good looking. Sorry! I dont think he can act and none of his previous movies ever showed his ability to me. No, not even in 'Om Shanti Om.' But for the first time ever, I have to say, he didnt do that bad of a job in this film.
















Kareena and Kajol did an amazing job of living their roles and their on screen chemistry just made the movie worth watching. They both looked gorgeous and played their characters beautifully. The 3 children in the movie did such an amazing job. They made you believe in their characters.



This movie definately made me tear up a few times. Which shows that every single person did a good job in playing their roles. I dont want to give away too much, since I know some of you really want to see this movie. I do reccommend this for girls to see. It's an emotional chic flick, so have the tissues handy! :-)

I give this movie a 3.75 out of 5!

Way back Wednesday!

Remember this one? Not too old, but not tooo present either. Another awesome awesome awesome song!! I'm jamming to this all over again today :-)

Movie: Chori Chori (2003)
Song: Tu mere samne



Lyrics

Ho, ho ho, ho oh oh ho
Tu mere samne, me tere samne
Tu mere samne, me tere samne

Me tere samne, tu mere samne

Dono ke beech hai meelon ki dooriyaan

Dhak dhak dil bole tera, cham cham meri choodiyaan

Haiyo rabba haiyo rabba pyaar diya majbooriyaan

Haiyo rabba haiyo rabba pyaar diya majbooriyaan

Tu mere samne, me tere samne

Me sochoon haan kar doon, dil bole na kar de

Dil bole haan kar de, me sochoon na kar de
Haan, main sochoon haan kar doon, dil bole na kar de
Dil bole haan kar de, main sochoon na kar de

Raataan hai lambiyaan, baataan adhooriyaan

Haan na ho jaaye to ho jaaye galla puriyaan
Haiyo rabba haiyo rabba pyaar diya majbooriyaan
Haiyo rabba haiyo rabba pyaar diya majbooriyaan


Tu mere samne, main tere samne

Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Jaa apne daaman ko phoolon se tu bhar le
Jeena hai to jee le, marna hai to mar le
Ho, jaa apne daaman ko phoolon se tu bhar le
Jeena hai to jee le, marna hai to mar le

Dil chaahe dil ko aaj de de manzooriyaan

Hum bhi kar le sarkaar ki jiha jooriyaan
Haiyo rabba haiyo rabba pyaar diya majbooriyaan
Haiyo rabba haiyo rabba pyaar diya majbooriyaan

Hope you enjoy the song! Have a good day everyone!

Review: Once Upon A Time In Mumbai


I finally got the chance to sit down and watch this movie last week. And I have to say, it was an ok movie and I'm glad I watched it at home vs in the theatre. I wanted to see the movie based on the trailers and because of one really good song, 'Pee Loo.'

The movie is basically about two gangsters and the rise of the underworld, all seen through the eyes of a police officer.

The movie is set in the 70's and definately has the look and feel of the movies from back then. Not to mention the same "cliche" dialogue that was also used back then. But nonetheless, the actors did a superb job in playing out their roles. Ajay Devgan definately shows his acting skills as Sultan Mirza. My favorite part definately has to be when he woo's the famous Actress Rehaana, played by Kangana Ranaut.



Kangana plays a "famous 70's film actress" and looks gorgeous doing so. Her sari's, makeup and hair all definately played the part. But I still cant get over her plastic surgery. I thought maybe I'll see past it in a movie but I just couldnt stop staring at her big fat injected lips. WHYYY Kangana!? WHY!? Your such a gorgeous girl, you didnt have to do any of that to yourself!



But anyways, moving on! That leaves me to Emraan Hashmi and Prachi Desai. I have watched all of Emraan Hashmi's movies and I guess I can call myself a fan of him. I think he's an outstanding actor and does different kinds of films. Ones I can find myself watching more than once (besides this one). He played out his role effortlessly in this film. Prachi Desai also does really good as an up and coming actress. I used to watch her in the Zee TV drama serial 'Kasam Se,' so I'm already a fan of her acting.


All in all this movie was a good time pass movie for my husband and me. He's usually the one to like the "gangster" or "underworld" type of movies, but this one deifnately didnt hit the spot for him. Would we watch this movie again if it was on t.v. --probably not.

I give this movie a 3 out of 5.

Have you seen this movie? What are your takes on it?

Rakhloon nazar mein chehra tera
Din raat uspe marta rahoon
Jab tak yeh saansein chalti rahein
Tujhse mohabbat karta rahoon
Itna joh chahoge meri kasam
Sab kuchh luta doongi tujhpe sanam
Tumne kiya hai bekaraar
Bekaraar bekaraar bekaraar

Arre Oye Oye Oye Oye

Bharke mujhe apne aagosh mein
Soja mere gaisu'on ke tale
Ter siva kuch nazar aaye na
Aise lagale mujhko galey
Teri wafaon pe bharosa karu
Tujhse kabhi na dhokha karu
Tune kiya hai aitbaar

Ke ab kya karein hum

Random

Hello lovelies!

Today was a pretty fast day for me. Normally I hate Tuesdays because I feel like "ughh it's only Tuesday!?" But since it was my last day at this Clinical Rotation, it went by super fast. Plus it just happened to be super busy. I'm looking forward to the long weekend though! We're probably going to the beach, if the weather permits that is! If not, I'm planning to go see "We are Family." It got pretty good reviews by critics. I'll go take a watch and then write a review sometime during the weekend.
Doesnt Kareena look fabbb in the movie stills!?

A few weeks ago was the India International Jewelry week. I totally forgot to share some awesome pictures from that event! I saved the pictures to my computer and never got the chance to upload them. But here are a few of Deepika Podukone. Doesnt she look gorgeous!? Such a pretty bride! My favorite thing about her (besides her 'to die for' dimples) would have to be her confidence and the way she carries herself. Not all models or former models have that.

By the way, I loove her jewelry! I love love the necklace! Something totally different and eye catching!




Anyways, I'm gettin pretty tired now, more blogging tomorrow! It's way back wednesday tomorrow!! woo hoo!! Y'all do know that I always have the songs chosen in advance right!? Ive been thinking about the song since this weekend!

Way back Wednesday!

This week's flashback song is one that I absolutely adore. It has such beautiful lyrics and a cute video. The movie was also really worth watching. Diya Mirza looks gorgeous and is such a cute actress. I know many of you might not agree with that.. but come on! How can you not find her so cute!?

Anyways, I hope yall really enjoy this song, just as much as I do everytime I hear it.

Movie:  Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein
Song:   Zara Zara





LYRICS:
Zara zara bahekta hai, mahekta hai

Aaj to mera tan badan, main pyaasi hoon
Mujhe bhar le apni baahon mein

Zara zara bahekta hai, mahekta hai

Aaj to mera tan badan, main pyaasi hoon
Mujhe bhar le apni baahon mein


Hai meri kasam tujhko sanam, door kahin na jaa
Yeh doori kehti hai paas mere aaja re

Yunhi baras baras kaali ghata barse
Hum yaar bheeg jaaye, is chaahat ki baarish mein
Meri khuli khuli laton ko suljhaaye
Tu apni ungliyon se, main to hoon isi khwaahish mein
Sardi ki raaton mein, hum soye rahe ek chaadar mein
Hum dono tanha ho, na koi bhi rahe is ghar mein

Zara zara bahekta hai, mahekta hai
Aaj to mera tan badan, main pyaasi hoon
Mujhe bhar le apni baahon mein

Aaja re aa re

Tadpaaye mujhe teri sabhi baatein
Ek baar ae deewane, jhootha hi sahi pyaar to kar
Main bhooli nahin haseen mulaaqaatein
Bechain karke mujhko, mujhse yun na pher nazar
Roothega na mujhse, mere saathiya yeh vaada kar
Tere bina mushkil hai, jeena mera mere dil mein

Zara zara bahekta hai, mahekta hai
Aaj to mera tan badan, main pyaasi hoon
Mujhe bhar le apni baahon mein
Hai meri kasam, tujhko sanam, door kahin na jaa
Yeh doori kehti hai paas mere aaja re

Aaja re, aaja re, aaja re

Wayy-back Wednesday!

This weeks "Song of the week" for me definately has to be one of the sweetest hindi songs ever written. I miss the good ol' days of Bollywood. When the songs came from the heart and had such beautiful meaning! I mean come on, how many sweet songs have come out this year? Not more than 10. At least not ones with lyrics that just make you *sigh* and say awwwwww!

Anyways, here's my pic of the week. Hopefully it takes you back in time and makes you want to fall in love(if you're not already!).

Movie: Kareeb (1998)
Song: Chori Chori




Lyrics:

Yeh kya hua, kaise hua
Yeh kab hua, kya pata

Chori chori jab nazarein mili

Chori chori phir neendein udi
Chori chori yeh dil ne kaha
Chori mein bhi hai mazaa

Chori chori jab nazarein mili
Chori chori phir neendein udi
Chori chori yeh dil ne kaha
Chori mein bhi hai mazaa
Kya jaane kya mil gaya
Kya jaane kya kho gaya
Tune yeh kya kar diya
Mujhko yeh kya ho gaya
Palkein jhuki palkein uthi
Kya keh diya kya suna
Phoolon ke khwaabon mein aakar
Khushboo chura le gayi
Baadal ka aanchal bhi aakar
O paagal hawa le gayi
Phoolon ke khwaabon mein aakar

Khushboo chura le gayi
Baadal ka aanchal bhi aakar
Paagal hawa le gayi
Ek phool ne ek phool se
Phir kaan mein kuchh kaha

Chori chori jab nazarein mili
Chori chori phir neendein udi
Chori chori yeh dil ne kaha
Chori mein bhi hai maza
Rishton ke neele bhawar
Kuchh aur gehre huay
Tere mere saaye hai
Pani pe thehre huay
Jab pyaar ka moti gira
Banne laga dairaa

Chori chori jab
Chori chori jab nazarein mili
Chori chori phir neendein udi
Chori chori yeh dil ne kaha
Chori mein bhi hai mazaa
Hyyy!!


ENJOY!

Enthiran...Robot?

The more I see the teasers for this movie, the more I want to see it! It's Aishwarya Rai's next film, Enthiran- The Robot. Yeah sounds pretty corny from the name, but the promo's are looking kind of promising. The lead actor opposite Aishwarya is the famous South Indian actor, Rajnikanth. He's the 2nd highest paid actor in Asia (first being Jackie Chan!!). Now that right there, speaks a lot for itself. If not for anything else, I'll end up watching this movie just to see their on-screen chemistry and his action.

Aishwarya is looking absolutely stunning in the promos. And I must say, we havent seen her in a glamorous role in a very long time. But nonetheless.. she looks great for her age. I'm not a really HUGE fan of hers or anything, but girl can act and dance. And of course she has some beautiful eyes!

Anyways, here's the trailer for the movie.


Does this promo make you want to go see the movie in the theatre? Or do you think it'll be worth the wait to see on DVD?
