We are starting a regular segment called Incredible India that’ll highlight incredible stories and facts that can only be Made in India.

Here’s a selection of some of the incredible stories and facts to come out of Incredible India:

* Two minor Indian girls were married to frogs in a remote village of Villupuram District in Tamil Nadu.

In a bizarre ritual, two minor girls, both seven, from the remote Pallipudupet village in Tamil Nadu’s Villupuram district were married off to frogs on Friday night. The ceremony, an annual feature during the Pongal (harvest) festival, is conducted “to prevent the outbreak of mysterious diseases in the village”.

The girls, Vigneswari and Masiakanni, dressed up in traditional bridal finery — gilded sarees and gold jewellery — married the frog ‘princes’ in separate, Continue reading »

Chandni Chowk Collapses – Down 80%
Confirmed – Chandni Chowk a Mega Box Office Disaster

Akshay Kumar, Akki or by whatever asinine appellation you are known, please slit your wrists (and do let the blade sink deep).That’s the only way to ensure you don’t inflict such hideous perversity on hapless viewers ever again.

Folks, no matter what you may have heard, Chandni Chowk to China is not a Bollywood Kungfu comedy but the Bollywood Rasta to Perdition.

To think we braved freezing weather (-13 degree centigrade in the Northeast and feeling like -19) to watch Chandni Chowk to China only to be subjected to 2 hours and 30 minutes (length of movie) of unadulterated garbage. Ah, painful are the injustices of life.

If you thought Akshay Kumar’s previous film Singh is Kinng was bad, Chandni Chowk to China is ugly beyond your wildest fears.

Besides Hojo (Gordon Liu ), there are three other villains in this movie – the biggest villain is of course Akshay Kumar for involving himself with and peddling such atrocious garbage to us; director Nikhil Advani for unleashing this monstrosity on the audience; and Deepika Padukone for subjecting us to a double-dose of her incompetence.

Not a Comedy
Truth be said, there are very few funny moments in this piece of junk.

Who wrote the banal dialogs that never ever sparkle. Oh well, there’s nothing sparkling in this entire movie.

What is in abundance though is amateurish nonsense.

Some people have surmised that the sophomoric screenplay for Chandni Chowk to China was written on the sets. Even that charitable possibility seems like a gross exaggeration to us.

For sure, it must have been a grand melee on the Chandi Chowk sets with everyone doing whatever they fancied and the end result turned out to be this grotesque nightmare.

No, there are no riveting fights either, Kungfu or otherwise in this stinking rubbish. The fight between White-Bull and Akshay was nothing short of torture. Ditto with the final, dreary fight between Hojo and Akshay. Insane rubbish.  Continue reading »
