Finally the case is cracked, master plan is out…and as expected Pak plays the Major role and I am sure this will shut Musharraf’s mouth. (And Mulayam singh’s too, who is representative of Terrorists, SIMI)

Excerpts from the report on Rediff

Addressing media persons, Mumbai Police Commissioner A N Roy said Pakistan’s Inter Services Intelligence was the ‘mastermind’ behind the terror attacks carried out by Lashkar-e-Tayiba with help from Students of Islamic Movement of India activists.

Out of the 15 people arrested in connection with the blasts the ‘direct role’ of 12 people has been established, he said, adding that out of them, 11 are Pakistanis, who arrived in India in batches.

The Commissioner said the main players behind the blasts are Faizal Sheikh, Kamaluddin Ansari and Ehtasham Siddiqui, state general secretary of SIMI.

About 15 to 20 kg RDX was used in the blasts, which was brought from Pakistan by one Ehsanullah. Ammonium nitrate, which was mixed with RDX, was provided by local groups. The bombs were put together in the Chembur area by one Mohammad Ali around July 8 to 10.

Roy said the bombs were kept in Faizal’s home in Bandra from where they were transported to the Railway Stations in taxis. The bombs were kept in eight pressure cookers of five litre capacity, which were bought from two shops.

Each bomb contained two to 2.5 kg of RDX and 3.5 to four KG of ammonium nitrate. The pressure cookers were kept inside bags which were in turn camouflaged in things like newspapers and umbrellas, he said.

He said all the arrested were trained in Pakistan and knew how to dodge interrogators.

The narco-analysis tests conducted on the arrested persons also helped in tying several loose ends. Faizal Sheikh told police he had received around Rs 60 lakh from Pakistan during the last few years, Roy said, adding that police recovered 26,000 Riyals from his house, which he received from one Rizwan Devra, an ISI operative living in Saudi Arabia.

Peace!!!

Parveen Babi, a vey well known face in the film industry of India and Woh Lamhe, which opens diary of Parveen Babi in front of this whole world. The diary which is full of sadness and screams seeking for help. It is a very serious movie which makes you feel the pain of a person. A person who is well established in the industry but the world is unaware about the reality behind her plastic smile. No one recognizes the pain and cries which is kept inside for so long.

The movie starts with a very shocking scene where Sana Azim (Kangana Ranaut) in a hotel room, (in the bath tub) slashes her wrist to kill herself. Aditya Garewal (Shiney Ahuja) who is a successful director get a phone call early in the morning with news about Sana Azim found in some hotel in Mumbai and they have admitted in the hospital. Aditya rushes to the hospital with his friend Sam (Purab Kohli) and the story goes back 3 years back when Sana Azim is a super star and Aditya Garewal is a struggling director who is trying to get Sana act in his film and finally he manages it too. Sana who is frustrated with her current life, finds happiness with Aditya. She finds the freedom and love which she is missing.

But she also suffers from schizophrenic hallucination which disrupts her career and she gets admitted to the ICU which makes Aditya, leaving his career aside, take her to Goa, away from the media and film industry.

I was waiting for part 2 of Nach Baliye for quite some time and finally, today it started with full energy like it had in part 1.

Like earlier version, this time also it has 10 jodis.

My take on the jodis (after watching episode 1)

  1. Narayani and Gaurav - Good
  2. Gauri and Yash - Good
  3. Manav and Shweta - Good
  4. Shweta and Raja - I personally did not like it but Judges gave them 10/10
  5. Rasik and Ketki - BAD BAD BAD
  6. Arjun and Gurdip - Good but Gurdeep was not that impressive, specially the expressions were bad
  7. Hiten and Gauri - Not that good, they could improve a lot
  8. Hussain and Tina - Very impressive, Hussain was very good
  9. Keerti and Sharad - Very good, really liked their dance number
  10. Bhaktyaar and Tanaaz - Rockstars!!! So much energy, never seen before. Good stuff.

I think Nach Baliye is much much more better and superior than the show Jhalak Dikhla Ja on Sony.

Check their official website here You can also watch the videos online here on IndyaTube

The show timings are: Mon 8.30 PM to 11.00 PM (Atleast today it ended at 11 PM)

Hilarious will be the correct word to describe the movie in one word. The movie starts with a very funny scene and the array of humorous scenes does not stop.

The movie is about Mr. K.K. Khosla (Anupam Kher) who spends all his money to buy a plot in South Delhi. He does this just for his family and younger son Chiraunjilal aka Cherry (Parvin Dabbas), who is Computer Engineer. But the story starts rolling when they find out that their plot is illegally occupied by Khurana (Boman Irani) who asks for Rs. 15 lakh to give possession of the plot back to Khosla.

They try everything from seeking help from police to politician but nothing helps. K.K. Khosla even tries the trick given by his elder son Bunty (Ranvir Shorey). But he ends up locked up in the Jail.

But finally his younger son cherry decides “tit for tat� trick and they decide to fool Khurana, sell fake plot to him and use the same money to get their plot back.

Nagesh Kukunoor earlier known by his movie Hyderabad Blues and recently by Iqbal. More he opens his bag with different kind of movies, more we expect from him…and he always delivers the best.

This time also he brought a very unique theme of the movie lifted story (No idea if he has done legally or not) legally (Thanks to editor of varnachitram.com) from Malyalam movie Perumazhakkalam (Thanks Riyaz) and he has proven that to make a great movie, you do not need male actors, all you need is to make people feel the character of the movie. I have not seen any movie lately without any male actors in lead role. But in this movie 2 female characters handled the job of male characters very well.

The movie starts with Aamir leaving Himachal Pradesh for work in Saudi Arabia, his wife Zeenat (Gul Panag) stays back with her parents. On the other hand Shankar too leaves for Saudi Arabia for work, leaving his wife Meera (Ayesha Takia) in Rajasthan. Soon Meera gets the news of death of her husband Shankar and Zeent gets news of her husband being convicted for murder of his room mate Shankar. (Which was an accident)

Zeenat gets to know about the term, where she can save life of her husband Aamir if widow of Shankar forgives him and signs on the document provided by external ministry of India. Zeenat leaves for Rajasthan to find Meera. The only thing she had with her was, a photograph of Shankar. Zeenat reaches Rajasthan and there she meets Behroopia (Shreyas Talpade), who helps her in finding Meera.
