For the August 22-24 weekend, the Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Minissha Lamba, Bipasha Basu piece of shit had to suffer the ignominy of its gross collections falling 61.2% to $125,081.

Indian windmill giant Suzlon Energy got buggered by the Wall Street Journal (subscription required) today.

In a hard-hitting piece, the WSJ story said Suzlon is encountering headwinds in India after its well publicised problems in the international market:

Suzlon Energy Ltd., the world’s fifth-largest wind- turbine maker by sales, is facing complaints in its home market of India over technical problems with turbines, only months after blades it sold to U.S. buyers began cracking.

Some of Suzlon Energy’s largest Indian customers say their turbines fail to generate anywhere near the amount of electricity expected, suffer from excessive vibrations during high winds and have control problems costing them millions of dollars in lost power revenue.

“The machines are not fit to handle the wind,” said Shrenik Baldota, managing director of MSPL Ltd., an Indian mining company and one of India’s largest investors in wind power.

For its part, Suzlon denied that its turbines are facing difficulties in the Continue reading »

Hey Snow White,

Lately we’ve come upon reports that you are actively engaged in discussions to reimburse those schmuck distributors/exhibitors for the massive loss incurred because of their ill-advised decision to pay a premium for your Kuselan crap-show.

Judas anna, by just focusing on distributors you are ignoring another constituency that fed you, nourished you and made you wealthy beyond all your wildest bus-conductor dreams. We mean your schmuck fans, of course. Yes, the dolts who think that Aayiram Jenmangal eduthalam, unnamadire actor kadaikamaatan.

Now, shouldn’t you be compensating your muttal fans too by refunding the ticket money for putting those poor souls through the torturous ordeal of sitting through this pathetic piece of shit a.k.a Kuselan.

Of course some of your fans showed you and Kuselan the middle finger and unnavachu comedy pannitannga.

What an irony that the kick you threatened Kannadigas landed on your munji (face). That will teach you to be careful before you go around Continue reading »

Playing as of 8/22/2008 at: New York City (Angelika), Philadelphia (Ritz Bourse) and Los Angeles (Laemmle’s Playhouse 7, Pasadena & Laemmle’s Town Center 5, Encino)

Life is a hard road for much of humanity.

Even in USA, the so called richest country, it’s the privileged few that enjoy the trappings of comfort and stability that money affords.

For the rest, life’s forever a grind.

And that’s the way it’s always been for all of recorded history, as far as we can tell.

Frozen River is the moving story of a poor single woman Ray Eddy (Melissa Leo) living in a trailer home who is forced to make hard choices for the sake of her family.

A beautiful movie set in the bleak icy landscape of upstate New York along the Canadian border, Frozen River is a  reminder that you don’t need famous stars, exotic locales or a gazillion dollars to make a fine movie (One of the tragedies of Bollywood filmmakers is that they routinely hire some big-name dodos like Abhishek Bachchan or Ajith, travel to foreign locales, Continue reading »
