Budget is not a problem. Conviction is!

Watched 'Bharat Bhagya Vidhata' on Z5 and it was filled with a stellar marathi star cast.

An incident happened in Mumbai with marathi people and a non marathi person had to take the story to the world. Such a simple but effective gripping movie it is with amazing actors and the set and character designs where perfect. I just wonder why no marathi filmaker thought about this. Infact I don't remember watching any marathi movie with 2611 or any other mumbai *lasts as a subject. We lack the conviction to look within and then complain our audience doesn't watch marathi cinema...

Op Safed Sagar.. does it get better?

Have seen a lot of praise for this series here. I just finished ep2 and it was a shit show with half of the episode being that teenage love story. Every time some intense politics starts brewing that shit couple comes up. Is this how it is for the other episodes as well? Is the hype being created just PR or are the rest episodes worth bearing this non sense in ep2?

Tumbadchi Manjula Rant

I am just convinced now that I will never go and watch a marathi comedy movie in theatres. I watched TM on Z5 yesterday and for the entire first half I was waiting for atleast something to happen but it was filled with overacting, random scenes one after another, no character or surrounding built up, just plain and crass. I wonder how the film even became successful or was it just PR..

Tried California Burritos for the first time

Tried two Burritos

  1. Barbeque paneer without rice

  2. Fried mushroom one with lime rice

Started with barbeque paneer and since it was my first burrito experience, loved it. It was stuffed with paneer and vegetables. The sauces were nice and the sour cream added a nice twist. It might not be a con but the roll seemed like a raw chapati. Probably thats how it is made.

The fried mushroom was average for me. I didn't like the combination of having rice in the roll as it tones down the flavours. The crispy mushroom was nice. Felt less stuffed and less saucy.

Overall I would say must try!

Grill my strategy!

Lets say a stock hovers in a range and gives dividend. Lets say I invest 5L in the stock. If the stock moves a few rupees up I sell it. If it doesn't move up for some time I stay invested. Even if the stock doesn't get back up soon I will have the dividends. And if it keeps hovering in the range I keep having small profits.

What is the administration doing?

Last year we had exceptional rains which continued for 5 months still the condition today is pathetic with water cuts from today..

Where exactly is our tax money being used?

Why is there no effort to create alternative small scale water sources?

AI training platform suggestions...................

I am a small time musician. I am looking for those AI companies which strap camera on head to record movements while I play instruments. I want to do this to earn some extra money. I don't think AI will ever replace human musicians hence I just want to gobble on the free money available...

New generation will move away from Nataks

I have been seeing this trend lately where very few seats are available to be booked online on BookMyShow. For most of the seats with good viewing angle you need to get the physical tickets. Due to this I have refrained from going to natak this year as I want good seats to watch natak and also won't like to visit the auditorium just to get the preferred seats. This will eventually kill the interest of the younger generation if this stupidity to save on the BMS commission is not stopped..

  2. 10k Gold ETF
  3. 30k FD
  4. 20k MFs

Edit: 30M, IT, Timeline 5 yrs because that how long I think my job would last.

Digpal Lanjekar has lowered the quality of Marathi Cinema

I watched Ranapati Shivrai Swari Agra yesterday on Prime and it was just like watching a low budget TV serial. These guys are just looting people using CSMs name. I feel only Rajamouli or SLB can do justice to CSM by doing accurate casting with a gripping storyline and the grandeur that should be shown.

I Apologise

I apologise sincerely to the makers of Tighee for not watching your movie in theatre.

You made a grown up man weep. You made me pause the movie for 10 mins midway because at a point it became too heavy for me. You made my wife cry for 10-15 mins after the movie ended and call her mom later. As someone who has gone through similar loss myself, it couldn't have been more real and raw. Please accept my sincere apology. If the movie ever re- releases I will surely do my bit🙏

Eatally Ice Cream Review

Probably one of the best ice creams I have ever had. Super smooth, super creamy and rich. Feels premium for sure. Ordered from Swiggy, came in a nice packaging. Must try, I got it for 169 a piece though the mrp shows 199 still worth it!

Improvements needed:

  1. Sugar was spelt suger on the blueberry one. I had to recheck if it really is an original product.

  2. After a point the blueberry one became too sweet, I wanted that tangyness in the blueberry compote. Reducing sugar from the compote will make it a top notch product.

  3. Chocolate one was really good. Liked the chocolate chips sprinkled throughout. The chocolate was premium too. However I wanted it to be a bit bitter in phases to have that chocolate burst and diversity in tone.

I know the mods will take this down as they always do here.

My 8YO nephew is a big movie buff and regularly goes to cinema to watch movies and is aware of all future releases.

I showed him the rama intro from ramayana and 30 seconds in the first words from his mouth were "What is this AI?" literally!

I hope the makers work on this.

Edit: To the dumb people blaming the kid, I even showed him varansi teaser and he was excited to see it! Learn the difference between quality and unnecessary hype!!

Good:

  1. Ajay Atul stole the show, their bgm enhanced scenes which could other wise had been dull. I might go again in theatres just to watch the Anthem again on big screen.
  2. Screenplay is what kept me hooked till the end. Barring some sequences the screenplay was tight considering a 3+ hour movie. The geopolitics was captured with utmost sincerity raising curiosity to know what happens next.
  3. All the marathi star cast excelled their parts. Having read the book I would now imagine that's how a character looked in real. The 3rd character who played CSM is exactly how I thought CSM would look at the age of 16. Vidya, Gupte, Fardeen, Dutt, Irani amongst the Hindi ones were believable too.
  4. Certain action sequences were sleek and cool.

Bad:

  1. VFX: Come on we have individual YT creators doing great VFX. How can a 100 cr budget film not hire even one.
  2. My mind still refuses to accept RD as CSM. Genelia was bad too. None of RD, Genelia, AB or Bhagyashree can speak marathi fluently. And none of them had to be there in the movie.
