Left leg aage agee..



This movie has really good songs. Have seen songs that teach dance steps as a song sequence in English but this should be a first in mainstream Hindi cinema done in style. It couldn't be more hilarious :)

Peer pressure

I still remember how over hyped the movie Dark Knight(Batman series) was. Even worse, I was furious that it topped the imdb.com charts for many consecutive weeks dethroning my all time favorite Shawshank redemption. It took a long time before common sense prevailed and settled at the #8 spot. The same goes with Aamir Khan's new movie '3 idiots'. So rightly named! I just became the 4th idiot watching it.
I remember during under-graduation, students recommending study books that were too difficult to follow and claim they were excellent books to read and recommend it to fellow students, who would buy it and in turn do the same.

How about magazines that promotes and sells new things/ideas. Is a magazine equivalent to peer pressure? Do we feel tempted to think the way the magazine thinks and buy what the magazine says. I think so. What is your take on it?
