Keep off the grass - Karan Bajaj

Keep off the grass is not as good as Johnny Gone down.
The book comes across as confused...the first 50 and the last 50 pages are the essence of the book.
The remaining 100 pages are a drag.

However, since his second book was better than the first, I will surely buy the next one.

Movies and books

Movies:

Big Fish: 4/5

Fantastic Mr.Fox: 3.5/5


Books:

There was no one at the bus: Sirshendu Mukhopadhyay : Translated by Arunava Sinha

3/5

The story is very good but the translation takes away some of the essence. So if you can read Bengali, read the original book.

Pairon ki bediyan khwabon ko baandhe nahi re, kabhi nahi re
Mitti ki parton ko nanne se ankur bhi cheenay, dheere dheere
Iraade hare hare, jinke seeno mein ghar kare
Woh dil ki sune kare na darre, na darre

Subah ki kirno ko rokein jo salaakhein hai kahan
Jo khayalon pe pehre daale woh aankhein hai kahan
Par khulne ki deri hai parinde udh ke jhoomenge
Aasman aasman aasman
Subah ki kirno ko rokein jo salaakhein hai kahan
Jo khayalon pe pehre daale woh aankhein hai kahan
Par khulne ki deri hai parinde udh ke jhoomenge
Aasman aasman aasman

Aazaadiyan, aazaadiyan
Maagey na kabhi, mile mile mile
Aazaadiyan, aazaadiyan
Jo cheenay wahi, jee le jee le jee le

Subah ki kirno ko rokein jo salaakhein hai kahan
Jo khayalon pe pehre daale woh aankhein hai kahan
Par khulne ki deri hai parinde udh ke jhoomenge
Aasman aasman aasman

Kahani khatam hai ya shuruwaat hone ke hai (hone ke hai)
Subha nayi hai yeh ya phir raat hone ko hai (hone ke hai)
Kahani khatam hai ya shuruwaat hone ke hai (hone ke hai)
Subha nayi hai yeh ya phir raat hone ko hai (hone ke hai)

Aane wala waqt dega panha hai
Ya phir se milenge do raahein
Khabar kya, kya pataa

Once upon a time in Mumbai

Worth a watch.
