Scars

Dear Mr. Rishi Kapoor
Hello Sir! How are you doing? Long time no see. Or am I to really count your appearance on Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic? Where you yourself looked extremely uncomfortable as God. But then again not as uncomfortable as Mr. Bachchan in God Tussi Great Ho. Coming back to TPTM, just one question sir, what the hell were you thinking? Playing mentor to Rani Mukherji's less than convincing angel act must have been traumatic. My sympathies.

But speaking of trauma, Sir, what is this I hear about an upcoming movie called Karzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz? I understand that remakes must state everything with more eloquence, but this is still way too drawn out. Even if I could forgive the spelling, how, how, how could you let Himesh be the one in charge of the role you played once? Remember that year? 1980? I actually don't, having been just born. But you were a strapping young man who played Monty to perfection. Just your enthusiasm, screen presence, youthful good looks were enough to make a movie on reincarnation and revenge entertaining beyond belief. And then there was the fine music of course. No, I am not even going into the discussion of how "original" the tracks were. I am only harping on the fact that your Karz was part of a wonderful childhood, and I am angry that the memory of that is going to be decimated and then pulverized in less than a month's time.

Please Sir, I don't care what you need to do. Go on a hunger strike, weep tears of blood, do another badly written role of God, but whatever it is, please try and stop this film from ever getting released. Or even if it must be released, let it only tour Mumbai. Let it not embarrass the rest of the country or the world.

Alright Sir, be good. I shall keep you in my prayers.

Sincerely,
The One Who Saw the Trailer of Karzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz for the First Time Today and is Scarred Forever.

I still haven't seen the trailer of Karzzzzzzzzzzzzzz and I don't want to watch it either. That ghoul, Himesh, looked bad enough with a cap and now, he's looking worse with his long hair. The film will be one of the greatest flops of our time!
This post was so good and full of humour. Great job! You just wrote perfectly about TPTM and Karzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.Adding those extra Zs was a good idea.:-D

You guys are just jealous of Himesh because he has smoother, longer, shinier hair than you have.

Himesh will do a superb, mind blowing, fantastic, history job of playing Monty. It will introduce a new phrase in English: Foul Monty.

@ Butterfly
I actually don't think that the film will be a flop. Initial curiosity about it will be very high. Also, don't forget that HR has a huge fan following. Those folks will come to the theaters and pay to watch him.

@ Keka
Tandoori nights? But why get so annoyed? We have had songs with words such as mirchi, namkeen, mithi...tandoori is just one more step towards gastronomic nirvana.

@ b.o'hemian
Foul Monty has to be one of the finest puns I have heard in a long time. Thank you for coining it.

WTF am I reading! I had no clue! Is it because I haven't been in front of TV for the longest time? Is it because I youtube only for Megan Fox or Travel & Living's re-runs of Ford Supermodel Hunt?
Maybe.

And oh my god, why is everyone writing about this sonofa..? Please, don't waste precious blogosphere on him! x-(

@ D
Will you promise me that you will go for the first day first show of the movie?

@ Rohit
Point taken. But will you also go with D to the movie, please? I need some eyewitness account of the event.

Rohit Talwar said...

I don't think so. I will burn my eyes before or burn someone up entirely if I survive the movie.
