Some Disappointments

First, my parents had to cancel their trip to Trivandrum because dad fractured his ankle. So the opportunity of meeting my closest ones got postponed indefinitely. Everything was set, I even arranged an one room apartment where we 3 could stay for a couple of months together happily. All of a sudden, all plans came crashing down.

Instead I planned to visit Kolkata. I called up all my friends to announce my trip. Everynight I started having dreams of Phuchka, Bhetki Fry, Olypub and Coffee House. Just after I booked the flight, I got a great project to work on and was effectively tied down by professional commitments. Disheartening stuff, really.

Then came the Oscars. Even if I get a Deshdrohi tag for saying this, I would definitely say the Slumdog did not deserve 8 Oscars. At least 4 of them belonged to Dark Knight :-(

And finally, Ayesha Takia got married. I seriously feel that there should be a Law against hot actresses marrying when they are at the prime of their career. All the beauties in real life are bound to be taken before I meet them, if the same happens with women of fantasy too, the situation becomes very very bleak. Sigh!
