Books and Movies:
Books:
Godaan: 4.5/5
Munshi Premchand is a genius and Godaan is a masterpiece!
Godaan is a political novel, and there are pages where Premchand actually puts forth his thoughts about social injustice and reforms , but generally he concentrates more on recounting the lives of these many characters and showing by example.
As one of my friend says "Premchand's novels touch you to the core, because he writes the truth...only the naked truth!!"
Movies:
Band Bajaa Baraat: 3.5/5
The movie is one of the better hindi movies that have released of late. There is nothing new in the story, but the presentation is fresh and the cast has done a good job.
Phas Gaye re Obama: 3/5
The usual Rajat Kapoor and gang, in yet another lively comedy.. not as a good as Bheja fry..but worth a watch.
Break ke baad: 2.5/5
Not bad... not good either!!
Despicable me: 4/5
Hilarious and wacky.. this is a must watch!!
O Brother where art thou? : 3/5
This is a no brainer comedy with a strong cast and excellent dialogues. But not for everyone..
A Beautiful mind: 3.5/5
Excellent movie. Another must watch!

Movies n books...
Grown Ups (2010): 3/5
The Expendables (2010): 1/5 (I would love to dissect this movie..but am busy with a lot of other things)
Keep the change- Nirupama Subramanian : 3/5 (I would have added another 0.5..but the end wasn't too great). But overall...its much much better than many of the Indian authors I have read. Recommended!

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.

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.
