Chris The champ!!!

Chris,
In last 4 years we became very good friends. I still remember we first met at our office Gym and later I moved in to your group. I was always amazed by your energy, drive and passion for your work. You were always there in the office by 8AM and left for home by 9-10PM. In these 14 hours except for your evening break for swimming you were always writing code or mentoring new guys. You were always very calm and cool, You are loved as a colleague respected as manager and admired by many as a wonderful human being. I think you derived your energy from your passion for sports. You seriously pursued your hobby and I think this was and is the main fuel, which makes you keep going. As I always told you are real champ. I am

Rang de Basanti

By the emergence of Multiplexes across the country now directors are willing to experiment and I think this is a good trend. Hindi cinema with its wider audience can succeed where the regional cinema with its limited viewers failed miserably. Movies like Parineeta, Sarkar etc are the evidence of this positive evolution. These are not flawless movies but definitely in the right direction breaking those age old formula of typical bollywood masalas.

Just watched "Rang de Basanti" a neatly done movie with an excellent performance by Aamir Khan.

Probably one of the best Hindi commercial movie made in Hindi....
