Got these through email and I loved it, remind me of my teen. Suddenly all the Cadbury ads just flashed in front of my eyes and I started humming “kya swad hai zindagi kaaaaaaa” really Cadbury ads in 80s and 90s were just unforgettable.

The cricket one where the girl jumps into the ground and does a very “ajeeb sa” dance is my fav. I have one more favourite which is a Karva chauth one, but I don’t have a clear picture of it. And the list is endless. i think to make such emotional and close to heart ads, one has to very sensible, i ...

After the quarter-finals of European Champions League, there are three English teams ( Liverpool , Chelsea and Manchester United) left in the competition and now only AC Milan can stop them from taking the Cup. Although I support Arsenal and very sad seeing them out of the competition but I would be very happy if Liverpool manage to beat Chelsea in semifinal and then take the cup by beating Manchester United in  the final. The future of English football looks very bright. Third time in succession at least one english team will play in the final, this year it could be two. Last year Arsenal lost to Barcelona and in 2004-2005 Liverpool beat AC Milan in the memorable ...

Yeah I like her a lot, sometimes I even forget that she is a Mexican actress and thinks that she an Indian moved to Hollywood.

Anyway coming back to the movie which I saw last week was “Frida” starring Salma Hayek, was fantastic and very heart touching. “Frida” is a 2002 Academy Award-winning film. After long time ...

Mr Mallya what have you done? I think you should just stick to your party circle and larger then life, lifestyle. Don’t you know that India is a democratic country and people are getting into a western lifestyle accepting everything that is done in west. In the rapid-fire question round on Koffee with Karan, when industrialist-MP Vijay Mallya was asked to comment on homosexuality, his response was “ugh.” That single comment has won him the ire of hundreds of people across the nation and abroad. Learn a Lesson and Please don’t do “ugh” for anything or anybody without giving it a second thought, doesn’t matter if it is a “Rapid Fire Round”. Money is not everything sweetheart! Try to be nice to people, you are ...
