Geeks from India are Flirting on Online Dating Sites
Tuesday, June 26th, 2012
Not long before, Jumpdates predicted the rising market of online dating in Asia, especially in India. This is what makes our prediction stronger. Geeks are also human and has emotions which is why the college passed out from one of India’s premier technology institute IIT Kharagpur has started a free dating site.
Geeks from India are Flirting on Free Dating Sites
IIT Kharagpur is one of the top technology institutes in India. Young graduates who pass through these colleges can be easily been seen working for IT giants in California which has been termed as a brain drain by critics. Now the scenario is changing in terms of both i.e. fly away for jobs in the US and redefining the old belief to keep in pace with tomorrow.
Concept wise www.dateiitians.com is not new as there are plenty of campus dating sites in US, but what’s unique is that it does not restrict only students from IIT to login but it is open to the general public. This is certainly to create a bigger pool of singles.
This website is in the alpha stage right now as they may be testing it before the actual launch. This is certainly a good beginning for these young entrepreneurs but, it will be no cake walk for them as there is already some competition in this hot market from local sites like www.Twomagoes.com and other foreign sites like Zoosk.com.

Chronicle The Movie And Its Relationship With The Audience
Saturday, February 11th, 2012
I watched in intrigue the recent movie ‘Chronicle’ that came out this month and has caused quite a stir amongst the movie fans. Firstly, the movie was directed by an unknown direct Josh Trank who only has 3 other movies to his credit and is about to turn 27 this Feb. 19th. It is for this reason why perhaps the imagery and the story of the movie progressed well resulting in a spectacular ending towards the end.
Chronicle The Movie And Its Relationship With The Audience
The young Josh Trank can relate to the teenagers of the movie and coupled with his deep insight for movie making has turned this movie into a possible cult movie. The very things we often criticize in movies to support the plot was not much evident in this movie. For starters, Andrew with his supernatural powers could quite easily go to a bank and pull out all the money but instead decides to rob a few thugs living locally. However, this was cleverly handled and almost justified by the madness streak that followed in Andrew at the end. What made this movie good and very watchable was because the audience could not ‘fault’ the storyline so much. The only technical flaw I witnessed was when Steve was moving the car in the parking lot and I could visibly see the CGI effects of the wheels against the tarmac although I would imagine other folks watching the whole car moving and not paying much attention to this trivial detail.
There was another part of the movie where Josh Trank’s portrayal of Andrew was when he became lucky with a college girl but it turned out disastrous at the end when he threw up at the most important step. A consequence of this was that he was a joke of the school the next day where the kids especially the girls made leering remarks against him. Again in reality not something that is easily believed but against the backdrop of bullying that is taking place around schools reported by the media this becomes credible.
Another aspect of the movie that becomes almost non believable but something which Trank handles with deft in making the audiences somehow believe are the way they the kids are very restrained in using their power. One of the reasons for this is that the powers did not come to them at 100% and they needed to learn and master their powers over time. This may have given a sense of greater understanding to the kids on the wider implications of the misuse of this power as they had time to learn and apply.
A turning point for the climatic ending was long developed early in the movie by Trank who portrays Andrew as an introverted and socially inept child living with an abusive father. This can be compared to the horror movie Carrie (1976) starring Sissy Spacek as the troubled child in a family who blows a fuse and ultimately causes the destruction of her school.
All in all, the movie engages the audience well in its progressive and thought provoking storyline and scores 8/10.

A Romantic Action Thriller - Kurbaan
Friday, January 20th, 2012
Movie: Kurbaan
Director: Rensil D’silva
Year: 2009
Stars: Saif Ali Khan, Kareena kapoor, Vivek Oberoi, Om Puri and Kiron Kher
Snapshot of the Story
Kurbaan is story of a terrorist group that plays the bloody game of extreme terrorism in the USA. Story seems to be inspired from post-9/11 attack on twin towers. Saif Ali Khan is a wanted terrorist and part of a terrorist group planning a series of attacks. A love story runs alongside with this intense and sensitive issue and has been beautifully directed. Music director Salim Sulaiman gave Sufiyana (traditional music from the middle east) music to the movie that was praised by all the critics and loved by the audience.
Movie reviews and rating of Kurbaan
Storyline
Avantika (played by Kareena Kapoor) works in USA as a lecturer, but looses her job. She comes back to Delhi and starts working as a lecturer in a local college, there she meets Ehsaan (played by Saif Ali Khan) and as fellow lecturer both get attracted towards each other and love blossoms between them. Now Avantika gets a call from the same College to rejoin and both fly to USA.
Just when you think that everything was going rosy as romance of Avantika and Ehsaan is at it’s peak the story takes an unpredictable turn. Avantika comes to know that the bomb blast that took place in the New York subway was planned and executed by Ehsaan and his group. Avantika is shocked and is in a disarray knowing the fact that her husband is a terrorist on the other hand Ehsaan and his group are planning for another bomb in an aeroplane. Avanrika seeks help of Riyaaz (Vivek Oberoi) and infiltrates the gang to break off this deadly plan.
At times as an audience you will be wondering and can’t decide whether it addresses the issue of terrorism or showing terrorism for commercial benefits. There are many flaws in the movie, e.g. we all know that America become a different country post-9/11 when it comes to security and on other side you see Ehsaan a wanted terrorist roaming freely on the streets of New York which is hard to believe. With all these hiccups Kurbaan is an engaging story that works well and give you a lot of nail biting moments.
Director Rensil D’silva made a confident start to Indian cinema with great camera work of Hemant Chaturvedi and great music of duo Salim-Sulaiman that sounded flawless. The onscreen chemistry of Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan was fantastic as they share the great off screen bonding in actual life. The veteran actor Om Puri in the role of Khalu Jaan looked like a perfect cast.
Rating
Kurbaan scores 7 out 10 for handling the burning issue of terrorism so gracefully. Director Rensil D’silva made an impressive start in Bollywood.
