ajab prem ki ghazab kahaani reviewFriday is one of the best days at college. The classes get over quickly so you can spend the rest of the day catching up on your dreams at home or you can hang out with your friends. This friday as Samarth says, ‘It was your funeral. You chose it.’ Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif’s not so anticipated flick Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani (I need to a deep breath while naming the flick) released this friday. I was more impressed with the Rajkumar Santoshi tag while a lot of girls were interested in the hair weaving chocolate hero Ranbir Kapoor (yes it’s true). My first mistake. So the entire campus is set loose by some insane time-table setting authority. Faridabad is flooded with bags-and-handbags-carrying crowd with a desperate look on their faces as they battle it out at the box office to get tickets. Cell phones became life savers as groups split to different multiplexes hoping to catch the latest show. If only the youth of the nation worked this hard the other way around. So we also decided to opt for a Faridabad multiplex itself. My second mistake.

We managed to get tickets at Inox, Faridabad. It’s located at the Crown Interiorz mall. The food court there claims it’s the biggest in the entire NCR region (yeah the biggest you-know-what). They say the first fifteen minutes of a movie can make it or break it. My first fifteen minutes of the movie were spent settling down and telling my brain that I ‘am’ in a multiplex. Why? Flashback – 15 minutes ago. As the gates for the hall opened, the crowd went crazy. People were pushing everyone 360 degrees. Doesn’t make sense I agree but this is Faridabad, people will kill you for no reason whatsoever. I’ve had better experience with a second class travel in an Indian Railways train than this.

more than paranthas at crown plaza faridabad

It was my first time at More Than Paranthas. A lot of people at college recommended the place. So me and my roomie Ankur decided to check it out. We went for dinner so we missed those great combo meal deals they have for lunch. The place is decent. We ordered Chicken Tikka Paranthas and Murg Methi Malai. The paranthas were totally worth the money. The chicken was too creamy to our expectations. The service is great there. On the whole, a great place if you’re terribly hungry. Don’t miss out their combo meal deals during lunch!


Hell on Earth: Riding an Auto-rickshaw!

September 7, 2008

While at Delhi I had the opinion that it was the auto-rikshaws there which were like little monsters on three wheels. And then I moved to Faridabad and my opinion crashed like a typical Microsoft Operating system does. A ride on one of these auto-rikshaws in Faridabad is a ride through hell. If you think [...]

Finally connected!

August 19, 2008

After a really hectic trip back to Faridabad nothing could be more relaxing than finally getting an Airtel broadband connection installed. It took us 15 days to get the ADSL connection. Airtel Broadband in Faridabad isn’t anywhere near the standards they set up in the Delhi region. Anyways I don’t give a damn now. All [...]

Independence Day!

August 15, 2008

What is the best way to celebrate Independence Day? Get out and taste the real India! In my case it was more of a necessity. The day started with me and Ankur (my roomie) waking up late in the morning. We realized we had slept for 12 hours and that was enough. We left for [...]
