My Name Is...

Its not My Name is Earl.
Its not My Name is Slim Shady.
Its...

My Name is Khan.

^_^

When me and my sister watched the last season of reruns - Koffee with Karan, she always teased me of fancy Karan Johar. I mean, why not right? He's smart and young and rich and yes, smart again. Personally I think he is super sensitive kinda person. Undoubtedly, he made nice movies.

I dun really watch Hindi movie though since I was young I always accompanied my mom or my grandmother to watch Hindi movie. Every Saturday afternoon. I still remember. And I remembered also that I would always fell asleep during the second songs. :D

When I was in Matrics, my housemate really dig Hindi stuff, moreover Shahrukh Khan, obviously. She is an Indian Muslim and made me listen to the Hindi song and thought me how to dance, the Indian dance. Giler lah.

Enough about that, I am excited to blog this cuz My first Hindi movie I ever watched in Cinema is this movie. A Karan Johar movie - My Name is Khan, and I am super proud of it. The story is about a simple man, an ordinary Muslim with a simple and ordinary life but he created a magnificent legendary event. I may not be good in writing the movie review or synopsis, I think you can just google and read it yourself. I never read anything about this movie, I know that it was the latest project of Karan Johar ( read it from Wiki ) The title was somehow attractive. I told my bff, Nadiah, I was so goin to see this movie.

So, the real plan was to watch Legion. My sister asked me and my mom to Cineleisure to accompany her to watch movie. I thought she wanted to watch Percy Jackson, so I told her the show times began at 1120 hrs. When we reached there, she told me she wanted to see Legion. But the showtime was 1655 hrs. So we changed our mind to Percy Jackson until my mom suggested to watch My Name is Khan instead.

I was delighted, cuz I dun really into Legion. Moreover its Cineleisure.. not a fan =)

Personally, I am so proud of this movie. It brings a lot of moral message and it shows how important love and affection and family in our lives. How we need to be equally treated and accept each other without looking at the skin color.

Karan Johar didnt just portrayed Islam as a peace religion, he also created a real life fiction in the US for the minority. To me, its just a simple story.. a journey of the autistic guy to meet the President of the United States. What's happening after 9/11 and how much some Americans really wish for World Peace. It has everything, mother's love, brotherly love, society tolerance and all. And in my humble thought, I am proud of this story just like I am proud of watching I Am Legend.

and of course, its a Hindi movie, a Karan Johar movie... expect to have your eyes watery through out the story.


In my case, I cried like the day my big guy was an Ex. It was manic!!!

Better Man

Waitin', watchin' the clock, it's four o'clock, it's got to stop Tell him, take no more, she practices her speech As he opens the door, she rolls over... Pretends to sleep as he looks her over She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man... She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man... Can't find a better man Can't find a better man Ohh... Talkin' to herself, there's no one else who needs to know... She tells herself, oh... Memories back when she was bold and strong And waiting for the world to come along... Swears she knew it, now she swears he's gone She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man... She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man... She lies and says she still loves him, can't find a better man... She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man... Can't find a better man Can...

The Art of Henry Binns

( this one inspired by Carrie Bradshaw ) I have a little bad habit. I tend to get away from routine whenever I failed in a relationship. And when I say the routine, it was my job. My first job took place in PJ and after 3 years of servicing, I got to bump into my ex-soulmate everyday on the way to the office. I was waiting for my feeder bus and he was waiting for his shuttle bus. It was okay at first, I began to change my arrival schedule. But there was one evening, I was out of the office and there I saw him, was getting out of his shuttle in front of my office building.. looking and smiling at me, I knew I should get a new job. And I got one. It was in KL. Far away from him and his shuttle bus. And when I was in KL, I had my Nabil to accompany me everytime I had to stay back and sometimes on to work on weekend. All the desk and chair smell of him. And when we didnt work out, I felt like to get a fresh start.. I couldnt wait to get new job. ( moreover the contract would be finished an...
