Sucheta at her very best stalking the Ambanis :))
She is a brave journalist who broke the stock market scam in '92, I was in 9-10th Std lost over 40k and had to work really hard to repay it...
... but that was 10 years ago :))
I hope and pray there is no scam this time around India needs a stable economy and secure financial market.
This is a resto-bar recommended by cnb, situated on Tulsipipe Road (junction of The only thing I like was the Prawns koliwada and the Ghaspuss (salad) things which come free are papad, green chutney, chakli, Singhdana.... Did I forget something??
I've always wondered if the Volkswagen Beetle would ever fall on someone??
A resto-bar, Toto's is not the place for you if you like the finer things in life, such as a plush decor and fancy service. The place has been done up as a garage, with spare car parts, bikes and tires scattered around.
30, Lourdes Haven, Pali Junction, Bandra West, Mumbai, 400 050
Phone: +91 22 2600 5494
Overall TOTO's is a nice place but get really crowded on weekends...
Mumbai Mirror
Only in Bombay do you have Dargah solution for legal and illegal activities.... though I wouldn't agree with the reporter that Muslims are the only patronizes of the Dargah, I've seen people of all walks of life and all religions visit the Sufi Dargah's.
I've myself been to HAji Ali many times and always found it a fulfilling spiritual experience
Also
Maim Dargah is famous for its Kebabs, Colorful Faloodas, Sevaiyas', Malpouas and Ragda's
Haji Ali for its Juice Centre
Bombay Hospital Dargah is next to Khau Gully, everything from pav bhaji, tawa pulao, mewad kulfi, mysore masala dosas, sugar cane juice, vada Pav's...
This might one of the reasons why they are so popular :))
Now that the ladies bars are shutting down every TV channel wanting to show all sides of the story to the junta are following the bar girls every where and interviewing them.
Yesterday Sahara Samay TV crew was in some ladies bar in Worli and was interviewing a Bar Dancer (or Bar Bala) taking her feedback and future moves..
Bar girl was replying " Abhi hum log kya karege, yeh bandh hua tho raste pe dhanda karna padega... hum tho kaise bhi zindagi kaat lenge lekin hazaron waiter,watchman, Anna aur shetty log ka dukaan bandh ho jayega....
Kya sarkar iska jababdaari lega kya...humko dusri naukri degi kya. woh ARRE ARRE Patil ko iska jawaab denga padega, Disco aur Kilub mein naachna allowed hai, lekin yaahan bandh kar diya....
Hum Arrey Arrey Patil ko korut mein leke jayege"
Serious talk yet I found her style and accent damn funny :))
ARRE ARRE Patil is R.R Patil is the Maharasthra Dy. C.M and minister for Home.
The Rising is a movie about an episode that triggered of the 1857 war of independence, the story about the friendship between a Firang Army officer and a Sepoy, The story about the Opium trade and the oppression of the East India Company.
I decided to go ahead and watch the movie which was butchered by the critics and the other stupid reviewers, The movie is well made and definitely worth a dekko!!!
This is for the first time that Firangs are for real and not some Fair panjabis or sindhis putting up a fake accent and wearing the sola topi. The movie could have had some more action and violence, which was missing big time.
The filmmaker has done justice to history by not stereo typing all firangs as evil people..The songs and dances by Rani Mukerjee was cool too.. The Mangal Mangal song is sung 3-4 times by a gang of musicians who keep moving around in the village on an elephant.
Overall decent movie to watch.. I give it 6/10
The filmmakers spent 50 crores, I didn't mind spending 150 bucks watching it :))
I was having my mandatory morning cutting chai in office, I saw a code written on it '1906'.. Was juss wondering what it could be... Is some one trying to say something?? Was it made in 1906 ??? Is it some Patent number???? Da Vince someting ??.. kya ho sakta any guesses .... 
My friend Laxmi has written this huge comment in response to the Mumbra Rail roko http://bombaylives.blogspot.com/2005/08/5000-stage-rail-roko-in-mumbra.html and the general chaos in the city ...
here's her gyaan :))
Justifying what the 5000 people did in Mumbra was not accepted by all the people as fury from the public that the Govt required to set things straight. The guys who are in power are there because of these same people who either don’t vote at all or put the mark on the best pic!!!! Throwing stones at running trains….how on earth can you get so inhuman that you don’t care on whose eye or head that stone lands. Such kind of movements are never with a sane and thoughtful mind, this is the work of people who don’t have anything else to do and hence vent their frustration in such manners.
What’s the point of putting innocent lives in danger & messing up an already messed up economy by staging rail roko nonsense as they call it and causing inconvenience to so many people, some who may be earning a wage on a per day basis so their bread & butter for that day goes for a toss. Some who may not be in a position to sit home because they cant afford a one day salary cut because their household runs end to end on their months salary. All of such people had to go thru a day without work. Why, because of other late risers who SUDDENLY realized that our Govt sucks!
People should stop being so childish and getting on the roads with Bandhs & rail roko stuff and get a life. You want a better city & better management system, elect the right person or take responsibility. Stop throwing blame like a kindergarten kid. By stopping life in the city you will just have the city running into losses & nothing else. You want to live a better life, make things better for yourself. Make your own small Disaster Management team for your own area & work together. Help people around you feel better after the terrible days that they have been through, don’t make it worse by coming on the roads & venting it on people who have been through enough or more grief than you have.
If you can solve the problem, don’t aggravate it either.
