Movies watched this weekend!!

Watched couple of movies this weekend…
First I watched “In Pursuit of Happiness” on Saturday. It is a true story based in the 80’s, about a man trying to make a seemingly impossible dream come true while being a a great single parent to his 5 year old kid.
The movie is a feel good movie with lots of emotional scenes . The best part in the film is the father son relationship, which is played by Will smith and his real life son and the struggles of the man to pursue his dreams a better life for his son.
Will Smith Sr. and Jr. have played really great roles and surely is a must watch.


I watched “Apocalypto” on Sunday. I would firstly say that this movie should not be watched for its sheer gross nature of violence. In a trade mark Mel Gibson Film , where blood oozes in most of the scenes. The movie is set in early 16th century Mexico and it a story about survival of a man to save self and his family from the brutal tribe who give human sacrifices to please gods. Overall the movie has great locations, great cinematography, good background score and wonderful acting of not so known actors but after the movie I was in a state of shock . This movie is not even for the strong hearted cause its scenes are much more graphic then any horror movie I have ever seen.

My new best friend !!!

Ya, I have a new best friend..and his name is Abhigyan..He is one year son of my long time room mate Krishna & his wife Archana.
I have a blast playing with him. He reminds me of my two nephews Yash & Jai. He is the cutest friend I have ever had and he looked the best when he had his long curls. (Krishna I am angry with you for cutting his hair ).

I look forward to weekends to meet and play with him. I have taught him to wink, scream ,sing and make various noises in our secret baby language. I hope his mother doesn’t give me scolding for teaching all this :). Well planning to teach him more stuff especially the Bambaiya language,but now when he starts walking, which might happen anytime this month.

We just celebrated his first birthday on March 3. Wishing him lots of happiness and a great future ahead with Lots of love and hugs to from his Santosh Mama.
