Who's next???


I was a great fan of 'American Idol' in 2007 but this year, I have not watched much but I've been following the updates in the web part of the version. In 2007, I used to watch it for Sanjaya and deliberately wished to vote for him even though he was not a great singer when compared to the other top contestants of the show (being a desi, this was a way to show my patriotism ;)) And this year, it's for Anoop Dogg as he's popularly called...But he had to go out in the last episode because of the valuable comments from the judge Simon Cowell...So, my desi patriotism has come to an end for this year in terms of AI. Waiting for the next year's AI to see if someone like Sanjaya or Anoop shows up...Who's next???

Flavors

This is the third time I am watching this Desi American movie called 'Flavors'. There is nothing great about this movie but I like this movie for portraying the reality of desis being in US. Desis on bench, how day-to-day life goes for a house wife in America, how serious is being jobless, friendships, beer, parents visit and how they look at things here - a real flavor in 'Flavors'. Out of the whole movie, I like two characters - Karthik for being a very practical and happy-go lucky guy and Rad's (RadhaKrishnan) mom fitting into the real Indian type of mommy. It's just a 'light' movie which can erode one's boredom and I can watch this again.
