Kandahar Break
From the Blog Speak Your Mind!!!: Kandahar Break - Kandahar Break is an independent British film written and directed by David Whitney and was released in 2009. Though I have seen many movies set in Afghanistan and Kabul and about the atrocities being done there by the lost people. This movie has a very simple plot and highlights more or less the same things that we have read and known for years now. My inspiration to write it was to see this model whom I first saw at a silly fashion show organized by students from SZABIST and one of my friends was the organizer and we went there to support him. This girl seemed confident and resembled Parveen Bobby. I remember my sister and I said this girl seems bold and will go ahead. Later on I saw her on ramp. It was Tatmaeen. She had made progress quickly. I mean imagine all those Pakistani models and actresses who claim all the time they wouldn’t work in an Indian movie or that they have too many offers and blah blah. And there Tatmaeen has already worked in an international project. And she did act pretty decent…I set my benchmark a bit low and that is Vaneeza’s acting in Jinnah. So, yes Tatmaeen looked fine and acted well. She did quite a few kissing scenes also, so I am not too sure if she is still in Pakistan, has there been any fatwa passed against her or whatever the scenario is here. The story is about this British engineer who had come to destroy land mines. This was pre the 9-11 era but Taliban rules were functional in Afghanistan. And this engineer fell for this girl Jameela (Tatmaeen) who was an interpreter and had lived in US for many years but had returned to her country afterwards as that’s what her father had wanted …to live in their own land. Unfortunately, because this engineer Richard and Jameela fell in love and were seen together intimately, the girl was taken to be stoned to death. The guy did interfere but the girl died and he was in trouble because now the Talibans were after him. So, the rest of the movie was about how he made his way out through Pakistan. Along the way, he also met some Balochi tribesmen who helped him because they considered Talibans to be the real enemies of peace. But sadly, as soon as he crossed the border he was shot dead. Later on in 2002, Nato took over and drove the Talibans out. Kandahar Break Trailer The story was quite simple and I am sure in reality even worse things happened in Afghanistan. I have read many stories about women trapped in such places and it is very sad to see how entire lives are ruined. The movie had some other Pakistani tv actors too who acted well. . Read Full Post

From the Blog Speak Your Mind!!!: Anchal Kumar - I didn’t really know anything about who was Anchal Kumar. I saw her on Bigg Boss for the first time and so I did some research on her too I saw some of her hot photos, didn’t really think would see her mostly in lingerie. Anyway, she does look pretty ok in most of her pics. I didn’t even know she was Yuvraj Singh’s girl friend, but then Yuvraj ji is almost everybody’s boyfriend for sometime. . Read Full Post

Stay away from this movie! It's a senseless, bogus, worthless, gross, shitty thing. In this movie, there are a couple of survivors & they all look up to another fellow survivor who has been lying about many things. He has a written a book & has become a celebrity. I had no idea that so many people survived the ordeal till I saw this idiotic flick. Every time some psychotic is there to carry on the mess & he/she is as perfect as the original creator of the jigsaw games. One gets sick & tired of those gory scenes in which people are being chopped off. Anyway, it's the 7 th movie & they are saying it's the final one. And this one has received negative reviews so far. You need to have a really good engineer who could design such deadly machines. Every psychotic (in this case Detective Hoffman) is as good as the original psycho. How do they come up with such creative ideas? How do they design such machines? These are some questions that one can't help asking. And how the hell is everyone so good at it? Thank God we won't be bothered with Saw anymore! And it's no point wasting your time on this one. Believe me you won't be able to watch it till the end. It's that bad. . Read Full Post
