The Dirty Picture

Take a bow of O fair Vidya of today, for in thou hast one found the lost charm of the heroine. With Paa and Ishqiya already under her belt, this Tam Brahm girl has done it once again with The Dirty Picture.
Vidya played the sultry regional sex symbol who paved the way for the mindless skin fest in the regional movies.
The dialogues are loud and a couple of reels into the movie, they cease to shock. Nasiruddin Shah has played the aging regional superstar to perfection. Tushar Kapoor has really looked the type in the role of Nasir's bro.

 A well made movie which speaks volumes about the talent of the Hindi cinema.

Rating: 4.75 /5

Apple 5: Want to loose weight and some cash too?

Apple 5, that overly priced place which has all the makings of a wannabe fancy restaurant near Vishal Nagar on the main road to Hinjwadi, is exactly the kind of place where the restaurant takes care that you don't eat too much. The servings are miniscule, which the author discovered when he ordered a Tomato Basil soup and considering the "usual" serivng size prevalent in the lesser hotels around the world, asked it to be "one by 2". The ware itself was pretty decent but the china quality could be improved for sure. Next a veg. sizzler was ordered with the same result. The place boasts of some popular books and board games to create a friendly atmosphere and keep you lounging around which makes it interesting.
