Thanks but no thanks

My first vote of thanks goes to Imtiaz Ali. Thank you and thank god for a genuinely and actually funny movie at last: jab we met. A movie which doesnt require you to leave your brains behind, suspend your belief or disbelief or any such activity as does the usual dose of trash which gets passed off as comedy in bollywood. These are either plain unfunny or downright crass, for eg. malamaal weekly, garam masala, bheja fry, bhool bhualiya hera pheri-2, partner, dhol, golmaal etc. etc.

Thank you Shahrukh Khan. Now enough!! Shah ruk jao please. You made a medicore film and marketed it so much that we all have collective nausea. Its not possible to watch tv for 5 min. without you popping into our screens. I've been reduced to watching animal planet but am afraid that soon some animals will start singing songs from OSO.

A big sarcastic thanks is also due to the Board which Controls Cricket in India. You have successfully managed to take the sting out of cricket and in particular Indo-Pak matches with incessant and long drawn tours. Encounters between these two teams have never been so tame or marked by such camaraderie between players.

Another Thank you but ENOUGH request to all chunnu munnu guddu banti and wannabe celebrities. Please stop dancing and singing on every show on every tv channel. And if you cant help it, dont invite Shahrukh to do it with you.
