'A LIST OF THE WORST FILMS OF 2012I watch movies to get entertained. It’s as simple as that. Entertainment here must not be confused with non-sense humor or mindless masala flicks. I am an admirer of good stories (something that’s lacking in the Indian cinema today). According to me it all depends upon a well written script.

Today is one such day and here I am running my fingers randomly on the keyboard and framing sentences explaining the fact that I am framing sentences. Now that sounds stupid!About stupidity, I recently stumbled upon the comic strip called ‘PEARLS BEFORE SWINES.’ I read a strip that someone had pinned onto pinterest  and it made me laugh.

'Travelling opens the mind. I can’t say that for everyone outthere but it surely works for me. The best of the concepts and stories I haveever written were formed during my travel. The means, location or purpose oftravelling is of least importance. It can be a small distance journey of sayten km to a nearby theatre for a movie on my bike or a three day train journeyto the heart of Kerala for a cousin’s wedding.

'Cinema is an utterly powerful medium and it can have a longlasting impact on your mind and soul. It all depends upon the perspective of adirector.

Maybethat was due to the look of the robots in the trailer or maybe because of thename Steven Spielberg that was associated with the p(...)'
