Art meets Multiplex! Does this formula Work?

I don’t really know what the objective of this film was; to entertain, or to showcase the film making capabilities of the eclectic film maker Rituparno Ghosh. It’s like an arty film trying to be sold to the mainstream cine-goers. Oh and for all those who have been praising the Big B. Well I don’t see what the difference is. He did black which was well received and if he thinks roles like that suit him, then he’s been typecast into the stereotype ailing super star of yesteryear's still clinging on to that status by any and all means possible. Yes agreed age does catch up with stars, but then still trying to compete in the multiplex age of dazzling daredevils like Akshay for a pie of tinsel town is just pushing it, don’t you think?

Though the likes of Bengals star Prosonjit and Jisshu accompanied by the handsome Arjun Rampal, still riding the Rock On! wave and Priety Zinta and Divya Dutt chipping in great performances, I was yawning halfway through the film. By the end of the movie I had completely lost the plot.

I would advise all those looking for entertainment to steer clear of this Iceberg else you want to sink in several hours of misery. Big B fans, go for it, since you’ll are blinded by your reverence for this great star. Critics, well here’s another one you’ll can take apart and either put Rituporno higher up on a pedestal or then just move the one you’ll had put him up on, so that he can come back down to the ground and make films to entertain.

The 7 Wonders at Eco Park

Pyramid & Sphinx Our last excursion to Eco Park in Rajarhat dates all the way back to February 2015. Since then, a myriad of transformations has swept through the park. During a recent journey to the airport, we caught sight of the park's latest additions, which had become the talk of the town, visible from Biswa Banga Sarani. That sighting ignited our decision to revisit the park. Naturally, we concurred that visiting on a weekend would be an exercise in chaos, so we opted for a weekday to fully savor the wonders that awaited us. To our surprise, even on a weekday, the park teemed with visitors. Upon entering Eco Park for a nominal fee of Rs. 30, we were immediately struck by the sheer value it offered. Personally, I would have willingly paid more for the privilege of glimpsing these marvelous creations. Rather than expound further, I'll let the images convey the essence of what lies within. That being said, it unquestionably merits an in-person visit to truly appreciate ...

Vintage Car Show 2018 at The Tollygunge Club

1947 MG TC So here we are once more at The Tollygunge Club on a cold winter morning to catch some rare beauties to warm our hearts. I try to catch these every year if possible and after my recent trip and the number of cars I've seen on it, one would think I'd give it a miss. This year's collection had most of the usual cars with an addition of some more to the fray.  What disappointed though was the limited number of super cars on display. But all that said, it's always a joy to see these wonderful gems still being cared for by their owners and offering us a glimpse into automotive history. So with that much said, I hope you'll enjoy the pictures of the cars below. 1947 MG TC 1938 Rolls-Royce 1938 Rolls-Royce 1953 Land Rover 1932 Ford V8 1932 Ford V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1956 BSA Bantam 1952 Willy's Jeep 1962 Triumph Spitfire 1962 Triumph Spitfire 1925...
