Namastey London....

Yesternight I, along wid a couple of my friends went through Namsatey London. All the hype came crashing to shears with the start of the first scene. The movie absolutely lacks continuity and has fallen prey to bad direction, the only audience that sticks to their seat is due to Akshay's innocent comedy, Katrina's slender torso or to some extent the Purab and Paschim essence of the movie.

And coming to that Manoj Kumar act from Akshay, I must confess that one dialogue eally brought my senses reeling back to the movie...the scene when Katrina is getting engaged to her englih asshole and one of the guests at the party comments that India's still the land of snake charmers and apparently of call centers to the max. Here's a rough idea abt what he says:

"I bow in front of u and slaute u, due to a culture 5000 years old, that respects every individual and believes that none is big and none small. I hail from a country where a catholic woman refuses to hold the country's highest office for a sikh man who's sworn in by a muslim in a country of 80 % hindus!
I come from a country where 256 languages r spoken in 5000 dialects and newspapers r published in them so that 12 crore ppl read them, more then most countries' entire population. The internationl language English owes the origin of half its word to Sanskrit, we've got 3rd largest army in the world."

In addition quote Max Muller when he points to India when it comes to culture, when it comes to richness of lora and fauna and when it comes to diversity and integrity!
Quote Manoj Kumar when he says that India's contibution is 0, without which it would never have been possible t run in space and calculate heavenly distance.
We come from a land where people r not weighed by the color of their skin or by the dialect the speak but by the virtues that their character emanates!

I am proud to be an Indian and so should u....
